I was researching treatments for underarm odor since my prescription medication and current deodorant stopped working (which has been the pattern since I was 12 yrs old). I have a consultation with Dr Casas this week and I'll most likely get procedure depending on what the doctor says. I'll keep you posted.............

Just got the Miradry procedure today

So, I'm sitting my couch with a frozen water bottle in each arm pit. Initially when I arrived at the doctor's office I was so nervous (due the injections). I actually saw the syringes which did not help my nerves. So the tech offered me a Xanax. After the second time she offered it, I bit the bullet and swallowed the pill. Of course it kicked in after I had been injected multiple times in the armpits! I was so numb after the shots that I didn't feel anything when the Miradry was administered. The tech and the PA were very personable and made sure that I was comfortable. I left the office with ice packs but they melted during the trip home so I'm using the frozen water bottles for now

Hey petite queen. I even used those frozen soft gel beads. I bought at cvs. You freeze them. Now they don't last as long as a frozen water bottle. But they were just softer to my arm pit.

Ya know, I might invest in them if I have to continue to using the ice. How long did you have to ice your pits?

Im trying rem... I think the 1st 3 to 5 days. And of course the massaging.

I'm getting a massage next week & the tech at the dr's office said she would teach me how to do the massages myself

2 days after the treatment

So far the pits are swollen and slightly numb. Yesterday I felt a "stinging" pain, not too bad and today i haven't felt anything. I've kept the frozen water bottles underneath my arms for most of the weekend. I'm really want to workout but the dr's office advised against upper body exercise for 2 weeks :|
But it will be worth it to be odor free!
