Great experience. Surprised at first that the actual doctor wasn't doing the procedure but ended up being a good thing. The nurse that did the procedure was so nice and since it was an hour and she was next to me, it was better to have someone cool that you could hold a conversation with. Just like everyone elses review, the most painful part was the numbing injections. Due to being a guy, my underarm area was much larger and needed about 50 injections each. The 24 hours after were uncomfortable. Alot of swelling, minimal bruising and not alot of pain. It was more uncomfortable than anything. Swelling and bruising were gone within 6 days. I am about 3 weeks in and no sweat at all!!!!!! The one thing that nobody mentions on here is the level chose. At the place I went they said the Miradry is from level 1 to 5 and typically 4 and 5 aren't done except in Canada for some reason. They told me almost everyone did level 2 except their first patient ever did level 1. I wanted best results so I became their first level 3 patient. Hopefully more people list what they had and/or were given the option at time of treatment.
Best Money Spent!!!! 1st Treatment Was 5/21/12- Fenton, MI
Yesterday was 6 weeks and still sweat free....Life...
Yesterday was 6 weeks and still sweat free....Life changing!!! Confidence back, whole new wardrobe of crazy color shirts I could never wear prior and most of all I AM COMFORTABLE. No more uncomfortable feeling of a damp shirt. Its been 85-95 degrees here the last 2 weeks so its definitely been put to the test.
2nd treatment was back in October. Way different...
2nd treatment was back in October. Way different experience (in a good way). The nurse used a new needle that they just got for the procedure. Im not sure if all locations are using the new needles. The needle end is very short so as far as it can go is all it needs to go. The nurse was able to do the numbing process quicker, more efficient and accurately, and most importantly it was less painful (huge difference). Also, she gave me something for the anxiety I had as well as a shot to help with the swelling after the procedure. I was actually getting nervous after the procedure like the nurse did something wrong because I wasn't swelling as much. Come to find out it was all in my head and the procedure was just done perfectly. The redness in the new photos I posted today went away in about 5 days. Looks bad because of the brightness of the red, but it is comparable to a hickey. Goes away quick and easily. So the end of May this year will be 1 year since I started this whole process and couldn't be more satisfied. I was able to reduce my underarm sweating to about 95% and I was a pretty bad case to begin with. Oh, and again most people dont talk about levels so I always make sure to mention what worked for me. I had a level 3 on the first treatment and a level 4 on the second. Talk with the doctor about the levels and let them recommend what is best for you. I actually signed up for the volunteer Mentor program through miraDry so I hope to lend a helping hand to whoever is going through this procedure or thinking about going through it.
Doctor was extremely nice and sat down and spoke with me. Felt professional instead of what other doctors do where you feel rushed. He spoke about all aspects of the procedure and stopped in twice to check on things and make suggestions to the nurse. The lady who did the procedure was AMAZING!!!! Couldnt have been a better person. Her son was the 1st to have the procedure done at their location so it felt good to know someone with the experience. Overall place was nice, BIG, professional, BUSY (which is a good thing) and clean.
