Underarm sweating, while you are exercising or nervous, is normal, but excessive sweating that stains your clothes and causes an embarrassing odor is a medical condition known as hyperhidrosis.
Allegro MedSpa of Santa Rosa offers treatment for excessive underarm sweating using the miraDry system. miraDry from Miramar Labs is cleared by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to safely target and eliminate sweat and odor glands in the underarm area. You have about two million sweat glands throughout your body so eliminating the 2% that exist in your armpits is safe and effective. You will probably enjoy an active lifestyle even more without worrying about wet marks, deodorant streaks, stickiness, and strong odors. miraDry in Northern California is a fast, non-invasive procedure to help patients free themselves from underarm sweat.

HOW IT WORKS
Procedure Technique
Getting miraDry in Northern California is a fast, non-invasive procedure.
To initiate your treatment, the area is marked, cleaned, and then numbed with a topical anesthetic to make you comfortable during your procedure. Next, the miraDry device will be passed over the skin using light suction to bring the sweat glands closer to the surface of the skin. The miraWave heated energy works on the sweat and odor glands while the surface of your skin is kept cool by the device. Most treatments take approximately one hour.
What to Expect
