miraDry® for hyperhidrosis Treatment Experts in Mechanicsville, VA

Hyperhidrosis is the clinic term for excessive sweating.

For anyone who is tired of dealing with underarm sweat, odor, and hair, a solution is available: miraDry®. A non-invasive, permanent and FDA approved procedure that can reduce underarm issues in as little as one treatment.

How does miraDry® work ?

miraDry uses thermal energy to reduce the number of sweat and odor glands in your underarms—meaning you’ll experience much less perspiration and odor.

What is a miraDry® session like ?

First, your Forefront dermatologist will numb your underarm and mark the area with a template guide. Then a handheld applicator is used to target sweat and odor glands beneath the underarm skin. Once your sweat and odor glands are destroyed, they do not regenerate.

What results can be expected from miraDry®?

Most patients report a dramatic, permanent reduction of their underarm sweat. In a recent clinical study, the average underarm sweat reduction was 82%. You should notice a reduction in sweat immediately after treatment. As with any medical procedure, results will vary by person.

There’s little downtime after a miraDry® treatment, but you should expect some swelling and soreness for a few days after the procedure.
