Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

miraDry - not as painful as I thought :)
I had my miraDry at Duet Plastic Surgery in Palo Alto, CA, with Dr. Angeline who did the numbing injection and Gigi, the assistant who performed the miraDry procedure itself on me.
So, all of these reviews I read before going on the procedure myself did scare the poo out of me. I thought it was gonna be super crazily painful that I had to shower myself with Vicodin after.
Turned out, it was only 3/10, pain wise, to me.
I was lazy in putting the ice on my armpits, because I felt the pain/swelling never bothered me that much. I kept going with my activities the same day, no problem. I slept good, no problem.
Now, I am 4 days post the procedure, I don't sweat as much, I felt a little damp in the area but that's all. I had to run from the parking lot to some place like a mile away, back and forth, walking up and down the stairs, despite the damp, my shirt was still dry.
For $1500, sweat-free for life...... HELL YEAH. Do it, people!
