I had my second miradry session four days ago and I seem to be sweating more than before I had it done?

Sweating that continues after the procedure is common and it does not mean a failure. Give it time as the other physicians in the forum have expressed. Best of luck! Dr. ALDO

It is common for patients to experience "phantom sweating" for several months after having the procedure. You are injected with tumescent which is used to numb the area prior to the microwave treatment so you may actually be experiencing the "leakage" from that. I would give it 90 days and return for a starch iodine test to determine the number of active sweat glands, and go from there.Best of luck-Be well!#sweatingaftermiradry #phantomsweating #activesweatglands

It's really too early to judge the final result.  If it worked before for you, there is no reason why the second treatment wouldn't lead to even further reduction.  Give it some time.  Follow up with your provider.  

Your experience thus far with the second treatment is normal. You have to wait at least 4-6 weeks to see the reduction in sweat. As mentioned, immediately after the procedure sweat production can increase, but will lessen over the subsequent 4-6 weeks.Best wishes,Dr. Ravi Somayazula 

No worries!  Sweating in the days following treatment (1st or 2nd) is normal. It can be a purging of sorts after treatment as is not indicative of treatment success or failure.  Wait at least 3 months following any procedure to determine what may or may not be happening.  

Whether this occurs after the first procedure or second is the same. I always instruct patients not to worry about 'breakthrough' sweating in the week after the procedure. This is not "phantom sweating". It is real sweat. In my practice, 90% of my patients need only a SINGLE miraDry procedure. We are a Platinum Plus Provider for miraDry. 

Occasionally patients will have an outpouring of sweat in the few days after the procedure. The glands will eventually dry up and shrink. Your doctor can do a test to assess that all the area was properly treated. Studies show that results are much better at one month that they are at one week
