Will waiting more than 3 months for 2nd Miradry procedure make it less effective?

HeatherLB13
I'm nearly 4 weeks post-op from my 1st Miradry procedure and just starting to notice a bit of sweat returning. I've been trying to use natural deodorant but thinking I may need to switch back to antiperspirant to help with the remaining sweat. I'm certain I want to do a follow-up treatment but for financial reasons, I may need to wait until the new year (9 months total then from 1st treatment) will waiting that long between procedures make the second treatment less effective?
