Is sweating after 2 miradry treatments normal?

It is very rare that someone will need 3 treatments... make sure they are using the new tumescent protocol and setting 5 the whole time.

You are certainly in a unique position as most patients will begin to notice sizeable changes in underarm hyperhidrosis after Miradry. Speak to your surgeon about your results. You may be a candidate for retrograde suction curettage. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Clinical studies (and personal experience) have shown that MiraDry treated patients will experience 80-90% reduction of sweating.  There are outliers, who in my practice may require a 3rd treatment.  I always perform a starch iodine test before the 3rd treatment to determine if there is a "wet spot" where the previous MiraDry treatments may have missed.  This prevents the patient from undergoing another full MiraDay treatment if only a localized spot is causing the persistent sweating.  - Dr. Keaney

I think miraDry is a fantastic treatment. It works extremely well for a large number of
patients. But, like any treatment or
procedure, not all patients get the same great results. It’s completely
reasonable to repeat the procedure again if you and your physician deem it
necessary.

some swelling would be normal in particular if you had severe hyperhidrosis to begin with.  It is possible you would require a third treatment and the energy setting used may also be a consideration.  When you go in for your next evaluation and potential treatment do a starch iodine test to best locate where your hyperhidrosis or swelling is occurring.mirAdry is a very effective technology but the degree to which it helps various patients depends on the patient's own anatomy, severity of hyperhidrosis, and the energy settings and number of treatments with the machine.Chase Lay, MD

Sometimes the sweat is coming from adjacent areas. A starch iodine sweat test can determine where the seat glands are still active and those areas can be treated specifically.  It is also important to know what level of treatment was used.  Mild treatments are not as effective as more aggressive treatments (level 5).

I have a huge experience with miraDry and have had at least 3 patients who needed a third miraDry treatment. Interestingly, all of them had level 5 treatments on both occasions. So, you can choose to get another treatment as there is no harm to the underlying tissues and it will surely diminish the amount of hyperhidrosis and improve your quality of life further. If on the other hand, you did not get any improvement with the 1st two treatments, then reconsider whether you want to get a third treatment. Figure out from the treating physician what 'level of treatment' you got on those 1st two treatments. Hopefully for you, they provided level 5 treatments. Read the miraDry book on the link below.
