Permanently eliminate excessive underarm sweat with miraDry
miraDry is a revolutionary non-invasive treatment that eliminates excessive underarm sweat for good
Excessive underarm sweat can have a significantly negative impact on your life. Not only is it socially embarrassing, it can also be costly due to clothing ruined by underarm stains.
The medical term for excessive sweating is hyperhidrosis. Hyperhidrosis is a condition characterised by abnormal sweating that is far more than what is required to regulate body temperature. People who suffer from this condition have noticeable perspiration patches under their arms regardless of the temperature or stress of the situation. If this sounds like you, you’ve probably tried numerous products and procedures to treat your condition but have found that most things only work in the short term – if at all.

There is a lot to learn about before deciding if the MiraDry treatment is right for you, which is why we definitely recommend having a consultation with us about the treatment before deciding to have this treatment. If you live a long way from Perth, it is possible to book a video consultation to discuss this treatment.
What is miraDry?
miraDry is a non-invasive FDA approved procedure that is clinically proven to drastically diminish underarm sweat, while also eliminating odour producing glands. Unlike other underarm sweat treatments, miraDry’s results are permanent. miraDry uses a non-invasive handheld device to deliver precisely controlled electromagnetic energy to the skin beneath the underarm where it causes the sweat glands to undergo thermolysis (decomposition by heat) and once those sweat glands have been treated they never grow back, leaving you feeling confident in your appearance and hygiene no matter the situation. The miraDry device is listed on the Therapeutic Goods Administration device registration list.
What to expect during and after your miraDry procedure?
One of the best things about miraDry is that the procedure can be done in as little as one hour. During the treatment, you are unlikely to feel any discomfort as the area will be completely numbed. Once the treatment is finished it’s possible to experience some slight swelling, soreness or numbness in the underarm area, but this is minimal, and these sensations usually disappear in as little as a few days to a few weeks, tops. Most clients only require 1 treatment to experience an 82% reduction in sweating.
Is there any downtime?
Because miraDry is a non-invasive procedure, downtime is minimal. Before the procedure, local anaesthetic is injected into the armpits which can result in swelling of the armpits and the arms which usually resolves in one or two days. The local anaesthetic may temporarily cause numbness in the arms and hands, therefore we insist that you do not drive on the same day as your treatment. There is usually soreness in the armpit area that, in most cases, is resolved by the second day after the procedure. Simple pain relievers like paracetamol is recommended. Most clients can resume their regular activities the day after the treatment. Some more strenuous activities like high impact exercise should be suspended for a few days, but mostly you will be free to go about your business as usual.
