The miraDry® system eliminates the underarm sweat glands, and the sweat glands don’t grow back after treatment. This results in a dramatic and lasting reduction of embarrassing underarm sweat. In a clinical study, patients experienced an average of 82% reduction in underarm sweat. You should notice a reduction in sweat immediately after a single miraDry® treatment. As with any medical procedure, results will vary by person. 80% of our patients need only one treatment. Secondary effects include underarm hair and odor reduction. Ask your physician if this procedure is right for you.
Our office specializes in Miradry treatment in Los Angeles. In our experience, the Miradry provides safe, effective, and FDA approved technology for the elimination of underarm sweat. Raffy Karamanoukian MD FACS
FDA approval for the indication of sweat is hard won and is a result of rigorous studies showing both safety and efficacy. Alma SweatX does not have such approval. I would stick with the proven technology.
I don't think there is enough information about SweatX to tell you pros and cons. The company has put up a pdf file about this technology and you can Google serach it and look at the power point presentation. miraDry is FDA proven and there is too much to write except to tell you to read my ebook as it is available for free on the link below.
The swelling should resolve with time. I would suggest SwellX tablets to ease the swelling, elevation of your arms, and massage. I have co-authored a book on Miradry and have seen most symptoms resolve with time. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles
I would discuss with your doctor if he or she thinks a second procedure is warranted. The new protocol with tumescent fluid took the risk of nerve damage to basically zero. We do the most miraDry treatments than anyone in California. Let us know if we can help.
