I got MiraDry a four days ago and while I have yet to break a sweat (HOORAY!), I still have a lot of swelling. My armpits are still the size a golf ball. There is not really any pain anymore and not much numbness left either. I was told that the saline used during the procedure would eventually dissolve in the body. How long does that take? When will my armpits be back to normal?
Answer: Swelling after Miradry I have co-authored a book on Miradry and continue to see very positive results with the treatment. Swelling is normal, but I advise my patients to take some ibuprofen and Swell X after treatment to help with swelling. In addition, lymphatic massage with Plato's Scar Serum may help.

Answer: Swelling for MiraDry (for Hyperhydrosis, Excessive Sweating & Odor) First, congratulations on your miraDry treatment. It’s very common and normal to experience some degree of swelling post miraDry. It’s expected to dissipate over 3 to 5 days post treatment but occasionally we have seen mild swelling persist for 7 to 10 days. You may also experience swollen lymph nodes. If the swelling is more localized like what you are describing, it’s possible that’s swollen lymph nodes. If you are not sure at all, have your treating physician take a look. Good luck on your sweat reduction!Sincerely,

Answer: Swelling improves in 2 weeks or so The swelling usually takes about two weeks to resolve. If you sleep on several pillows, or in a recliner, swelling will go down more quickly. Also, light massage can be very helpful in helping your body to resorb the fluid.
