WORTH IT$1,400
Today I had my first treatment. I have suffered from both sweating and odour problems :(Had the procedure in the morning, now is about 10:30 pm and my armpits are veryyy swollen, mild bruising. Not a lot of pain, however a "weird"feeling I cant really describe( maybe burning?) in the underarms, not sure. This afternoon felt some pressure in my ribs, but nothing too extreme. the procedure went well, not a lot of pain, level 5 was applied since the aestheticism mentioned is the new protocol. She mentioned hair loss is usually a side effect from the treatment and said if I want to I can go to her office and get 3 treatments for free for laser hair removal, I thought that was really nice. I cant even express how much I hope this treatment works for me, I've read how Miradry has changed many people's lives but I have also read how it didn't work for some. I'm curious to know what is in the solution the apply after the first round of injections, does anybody know?

Hair loss? Can you elaborate.

As I read from one of the many reviews, comments and research about Miradry, some people experience temporary or permanent hair loss in the underarm region. This side effect may happen because the hair follicle is near the sweat glands. The aesthetician that did my treatment said to wait about 4 weeks to see if I experienced some hair loss, she offered to give me 3 sessions for laser underarm hair removal free of charge at that point. Such nice lady...

Second day

Hello,
Today is the second day after my treatment. I was able to sleep well however when I woke up I was in a lot of pain. I discovered I burnt myself from the ice packs I used at night :( I'm very swollen still; even more than last night. I read somewhere that inflammation usually peaks between 24-48 hours after treatment. It feels weird to have so much inflammation in the underarm region, I cannot wait for it to gradually reduce. No sweat, no noticeable odor. I'm trying to find arnica cream since I've read it helps to reduce bruising and inflammation. I posted some pictures but I feel they do not reflect an appropriate image of how swollen my underarms really are. All I can do is to keep on praying to God and life that this really works... My recommendation: Be careful with the ice, it can really burn. I know everyone should know about this, I know ! But if you don't pay attention, you will be burnt.

Try wrapping a thin towel around the ice pact and placing that directly on the skin. Ice burns can really hurt. Or another trick I read about was placing bottles water in the freezer for 2-3 hours and then using those as ice packs under the arms.
Thank you for joining and sharing with us. It looks very painful:(
