If you’re tired of battling underarm sweat, ruining shirts, or constantly reapplying deodorant, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to live with it. At Deschutes Dermatology in Bend, OR we offer miraDry, a revolutionary non-surgical solution that targets the root cause of excessive sweating. Unlike temporary fixes, miraDry is a long-lasting underarm sweat treatment that eliminates sweat and odor glands for good.
How miraDry Works—and Why It Lasts
miraDry uses thermal energy to precisely destroy the sweat and odor glands in your underarms. Because these glands don’t regenerate, the results are permanent for most patients. The procedure is performed in-office and typically takes about one hour. Most people experience immediate results with minimal downtime and no surgery.
Better still, the treatment only targets a small percentage of your body’s sweat glands—so it won’t interfere with your body’s natural ability to regulate temperature.
miraDry vs. Botox and Deodorants
Many patients compare miraDry vs. Botox when researching non-surgical sweat reduction. While Botox can temporarily block sweat production, results last only a few months and require repeat injections. miraDry, on the other hand, provides a permanent solution with just one or two sessions—no needles or repeat visits every few months.
Deodorants and antiperspirants may mask odor or reduce moisture temporarily, but they don’t address the underlying cause. And for people with primary axillary hyperhidrosis, over-the-counter solutions simply aren’t enough.
What to Expect: Before and After miraDry
During your miraDry consultation, we’ll evaluate your symptoms and determine if you’re a good candidate. On the day of treatment, your underarms will be numbed and treated with the miraDry handpiece. Most patients return to normal activities within a day or two.
Before and after miraDry, you can expect a noticeable difference: less sweat, less odor, and more confidence. Many patients also report that they no longer need to use deodorant at all.
Are There Side Effects With miraDry?
Like any aesthetic procedure, miraDry can cause minor side effects. The most common include temporary swelling, numbness, tingling, or soreness in the treated area. These typically resolve within a few days to weeks. Our experienced providers at Deschutes Dermatology will walk you through what to expect and how to minimize downtime.
