I had done two Mira dry sessions with the max level 5 but iam sweating very bad now.. Mira dry didn't work for me. What are my options for treatment?
Answer: What should I do after failure of miraDry for armpit sweating? It's very unusual for MiraDry not to work at all. You should see your treating physician and have an iodine-starch test to see if it's your underarm which is sweating and where. If it's the underarm, the consider a third treatment. If you're sweating elsewhere, then there might be some medications you can take to reduce sweating. Perhaps Botox can help.Best wishes, Dr. ALDO

Answer: Still sweating after miraDy I'm sorry to hear that you are still experiencing hyperhidrosis after having done miraDry twice. It is more likely that it was done incorrectly, or not enough energy was used. I would recommend you have a starch/iodine test to see how many active sweat glands are remaining, and then determine whether or not you'll need a 3rd treatment. Best of luck to you!

Answer: MiraDry We have not had this experience. We have not had to retreat after a level 5 treatment but always offer this as a second treatmetn if needed.

Answer: Still sweating after miraDry It is very unusual to still be sweating profusely after two miraDry treatments. Very rare patients have sweat glands which are too superficial or too deep that miraDry doesn't help. I would recommend a starch iodine test first to see if the sweating is diffuse or patchy. If it is patchy, it means the miraDry has helped and you may consider another treatment on Level 5. If it is diffuse, you may want to consider Botox.

Answer: MiraDry for underarm sweat It is very unusual to not have great results if MiraDry is performed at those settings on two occasions. Next step is to do a starch iodine test, then try one more time using tumescent technique at the max level. Good luck!
