miraDry vs Dermadry

How does miraDry treat excessive sweating of the underarms?

miraDry uses a technology called microwave thermolysis. This procedure is done with a device that delivers electromagnetic energy beneath the underarm skin resulting in thermolysis (decomposition by heat) of the sweat glands. It can also help eliminate body odour and underarm hair permanently. Due to it having to be done in a practitioner’s office, the treatment is only available in select cities. The procedure itself is also quite costly, generally costing US$3,000 per treatment session. Some require one treatment session, while many require two or three treatment sessions for satisfactory dryness. The most common side effects are underarm swelling, numbness, redness and soreness.

What is the best option for treating excessive sweating of the underarms?

We believe it’s through iontophoresis because it’s highly effective, affordable and offers long-lasting results. This at-home solution is also needle and drug-free. It’s especially good for those who had no success with traditional antiperspirants or creams due to its high effectiveness. Iontophoresis works by directing a small current through the skin, effectively neutralizing the connection between the nerves and the sweat glands. In nearly all cases, this effectively treats excessive sweating.

Why choose Dermadry?

Because it’s an at-home affordable iontophoresis solution that effectively treats excessive sweating of the underarms, as well as the hands and feet.
