With humidity at an all-time high this summer season, the stress and embarrassment of visible sweat stains is becoming an increasingly constant worry for both men and women. Luckily you can escape a summer of humiliating wet marks, ruined clothing and constant deodorizing with the help of MiraDry, a non-invasive procedure, offer at Dr. Greenberg’s office.
Both quick and non-invasive, the MiraDry System delivers controlled energy to the underarm region, eliminating the sweat glands without the hassle of a surgical procedure. Because the sweat glands do not regenerate after treatment, the results are both immediate and lasting.
This in-office procedure is customized by a clinician for both underarm areas of each patient. To ensure comfort, local anesthesia is administered prior to beginning. The appointment generally lasts about an hour.
There is minimal to no downtime following these office visits. Patients can return to normal activities such as work or school immediately after the procedure, and can typically resume exercise within several days. Moderate soreness and swelling are normal, and typically clear within a few weeks. Some patients have short-term altered sensation or numbness in the skin of their under or upper arms, which gradually disappears.
Don’t let the heat get you down this summer! With the help of Dr. Greenberg and his team you can face the warmth with confidence for years to come!
