WORTH IT$1,450
I have suffered excessive underarm sweat since I was around 12.
Over the years it has gotten worse, or it could be caused by the anxiety I get every time I plan to do anything or go anywhere because I know as soon as I step out of the shower it will start again.
It has become a sad vicious cycle that has gotten to the point I avoid going out as much as possible so I can avoid being uncomfortable or not being able to dress right for the occasion.
I usually use sweat pads in my shirts, I haven't worn a tshirt since I was a teenager and I've tried every over the counter antiperspirant money can buy and only walked away with irritated arm pits with minimal sweat reducton.
My sweating also seems to be worse during winter and spring when I'm cold. Any amount of temperature change sets it off really, like getting out from under the warm bed covers or going from inside to outside.
I actually sweat less in the summer because I find can keep closer to a constant temperature and I don't get cold.
This winter being so cold was an absolute nightmare! It could also be that I can just wear tank tops in the warm summer breeze making me feel more dry and comfortable lol. All I do know is winter is not a good time for me
I am a slim person and it sucks I have to resort to wearing black all the time and baggy sweaters.
I have had enough of being irritated all the time and not being able to dress nicely for occasions or wondering how am I going to fix myself or change if I do sweat through my shirt.
I finally decided after a lot of research online and on this website, I was going to go for it, I really had nothing to loose.
I found Dr. Sachit online and his practice is close to where I live.
I chose their office because it was clean, the Dr has been in practice for many years and the staff was very nice and accomdating. I also liked the fact that they had a special price deal on which made it cheaper then any other office that's local and they were going to go over the area twice to hopefully get 100% sweat reduction the first time!
Very excited my appointment is booked for March 30 2017 and I will update after the procedure!

One more sleep!
My appointment is in the early AM, which I figure is awesome, because it gives me more hours during the day to ice my underarms until I have to go to bed. I'm hoping this will speed the healing process up a bit and I'll be less swollen on day 2.
The one thing I'm really, really not looking forward to is the numbing shots.
I actually have this terrible fear of needles that I can not explain. Pain does not bother me at all, I've always been in physical sports and I like working out, I just I don't like the actual physical needles themselves when it comes time to do any sort of numbing. I literally avoid the dentist if I can and if I do ever need work done it's always super stressful. I have actually super glued wounds closed to avoid stiches, that is how much I'd just rather not go there. lol
Considering this I haven't been getting my usual anxiety worrying about it, I'm actually feeling really excited, but I never know until the time come's and they're ready to inject lol
My plan is to shut my eyes and keep reminding myself how awesome this is going to be and how much it will positively affect my life all around. I'm actually looking forward to the swelling and healing process if that sounds weird. Then I will have gotten through the stressful part, relaxed during the actual procedure and now get to chuckle how it hurts so good and I won't be sweating anymore!

I did it!!!!
Omg I'm so happy, especially the fact that I got through the needle part.
Not going to lie the worst part about it was the freezing. It was pretty gnarly felt like bees digging around in my armpit. Other then that I feel fantastic!
The feeling in my hands and arms have already come back and I have zero pain or discomfort. The doctor was worried about me having a lot of swelling because I'm so small but so far it's pretty minimal, only my right side has a bit of a golf ball going on but it's not enough I can't normally function or put my arms down.
I'm also really happy their clinic offers the newest version of the procedure. When they inject the freezing then also fill under the skin with saline which prevents the temporary nerve damage the old system would cause and the healing and swelling is much more minimal from what I've see and heard.
As promised they also went over my trouble areas twice. I really feel like they are here to help and not just for the money. The staff is amazing and the girl that did the procedure for me also had it done has been in my position so it was really calming to know that and hear about her healing process. She also held my hand and rubbed my arms while I was getting the injections done.
I am now going to relax for the day and ice on and off as much as I can and I will update on my healong journey tomorrow.
I also have to say I am not sweating at all and do not smell which is amazing for me!! So far so good this is a miracle!!
