7 days post-treatment: no sweat and fully recovered
WORTH IT$1,950
It has been 7 days now since the procedure and I feel I more or less fully recovered. The effects are amazing - there is no sweat in the underarms at all!
There is still some mild discoloration which is not really that noticeable but no swelling, no pain, no numbness nor any other noticeable negative reminders of the procedure itself in my daily life. I still wouldn't wear any clothing pinching or touching underarms excessively yet but other than it is just a normal day and no underarm sweat!
Overall it has been an overwhelmingly successful medical procedure so far! We'll see how long the results last but I would highly recommend it!

4 day post-treatment: pain and swelling are largely gone
The recovery seems to be going really well. Any residual pain is gone almost entirely, no ibuprofen, no icing. The swelling has decreased substantially with only residual feeling of "golf balls under the armpits".
It feels somewhat too early for any exercising and I'd wait the recommended 7 days post treatment. However, I'd say that this is the day when I would be ok returning to the office.

2 days post treatment update: recovery going well!
It has now been almost 48 hours after the procedure and the recovery is going really well (knock on wood). The swelling was the biggest on day 1, it maintained its size and even increased through the entire next day after the procedure and it has now started to decrease on the day 2 of the recovery.
Here are a few observations so far:
(1) Pain has not been a big problem at any point in the procedure or recovery so far. Ibuprofen and icing work well to the point that sometimes you don't even feel anything. Even when both wore out, I can feel some pinching but I'd say it is on the pain scale 2-3/10 on day 1 and on the pain scale 1/10 on day 2. It is the swelling that may impact your daily life.
(2) Consequently, sleeping at night has not been a problem at all. I slept easily both the night after the procedure and another night after that.
(3) Any physical efforts during the first day of recovery would have been very difficult due to swelling in the underarms. Do NOT plan to return to office on the day of the procedure, or the next day after the procedure. You can easily work from home but the office work may present a number of challenges. I'd probably skip the Day 2 of the recovery as well.
(4) Your underarms would prefer to be left alone which would impact the kind of activities you can do on these days. You may generally be walking in this "bodybuilder pose" throughout the house at least during the first couple days. Imagine returning to office like that?
