DESCRIPTION
NO SWEAT, NO STRESS
EFFECTIVE AGAINST SWEAT AND ODOUR
MiraDry is the only FDA-approved treatment that safely and permanently produces a significant reduction in underarm sweat and odour glands in just one session using thermal energy.
The miraDry system uses microwaves with a perfectly optimised form of energy to treat sweat and odour glands. They generate enough heat in the glands area for their safe elimination. MiraDry’s special cooling system also ensures a comfortable and safe treatment.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE & TECHNOLOGY
ELIMINATION OF SWEAT AND ODOUR GLANDS THANKS TO THERMAL MICROWAVE ENERGY
Sweat glands are needed to cool the body. However, the body has 2–4 million sweat glands, of which only about 2% are located in the armpits. Eliminating this 2% of sweat glands does not in any way affect the body’s ability to cool itself.
Tapping and releasing the button on the hand-held unit initiates treatment, thus minimising user fatigue. An indicator lights up when the energy is activated. The simple treatment can be completed in as little as one hour. For optimum treatment results, the skin and glands are brought closer to the treatment surface, indicated by a slightly noticeable vacuum. The hand-held suction unit pulls the skin away from the deeper structures and establishes maximum contact with the hydroceramic cooling surface. Ultimately, thermal energy is delivered to eliminate the sweat and scent glands. The system stabilises the tissue and allows an unimpeded flow of energy.
Apocrine and eccrine sweat glands are present in high density and varying depths (2–5 mm) at the skin-fat interface. A high temperature of over 60 °C is required to achieve permanent destruction of the glands. Because of the density of the glands, the entire tissue volume containing the glands must be heated to high temperatures, while simultaneously protecting the epidermis, upper dermis and delicate underlying structures.
To protect the skin and ensure the highest comfort level, the system simultaneously cools the skin. Once these glands are eliminated, they do not grow back. The miraDry BioTips attachments are supplied in sterile condition for maximum patient protection.
