miraDry® started out as a treatment for those suffering from excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis). However, since we all have sweat glands, it has become a great product for anyone that feels they sweat way too much in the underarms. This is especially common in our warmer Arizona climate. With miraDry®, eliminating sweat from our life permanently can finally become a reality. miraDry® is a FDA-cleared, minimally invasive procedure which can be done in the office under local anesthesia. The procedure typically takes less than one hour to complete and is associated with a relatively quick recovery and a fast return to work. Importantly, the results of the procedure are immediate. Most patients (80%) require only one treatment to rid the underarm region of all eccrine and apocrine glands. This usually means one treatment to permanently get rid of sweaty and smelly underarms!
FDA-cleared miraDry® treatments can eliminate sweat glands from the underarm region by using microwave technology. This technology will generate thermal energy when the applicator is placed on your skin so the procedure is done after the underarm has been numbed in the office. It takes a few minutes to carry out the actual gland elimination and most patients (80%) require only a single treatment for an effective result. Upon leaving the office, you will notice the results of the procedure are immediate and lasting. Don’t sweat it, miraDry® is here!
Year round hot & sunny days.
miraDry® underarm sweat reducing system eliminates the underarm sweat glands permanently, resulting in a dramatic and lasting reduction of underarm sweat. Sweat glands treated don’t grow back after treatment. The FDA miraDry® clinical study has revealed that patients experienced an average of 82% reduction in underarm sweat. Immediately after your initial treatment with miraDry® at Guerra Plastic Surgery Center, you should notice a reduction in sweat. Each patient is different so miraDry® results in Arizona will vary. Secondary positive effects from the miraDry® treatment include a reduction in underarm hair and odor. Schedule a consultation today to find out if miraDry® is right for you.

DRY and HAPPY!!!!!!
I've had one treatment of Miradry by Dr. Aldo Guerra about 4 months ago and it works great!! I was always worried if I wore a tight shirt that everyone would see my wet underarms!!! It's so gross and embarrassing to say the least. The procedure was super easy and there was a little bruising, but mostly swelling for a few days after the treatment. All I needed was one day of ibuprofen for the slight discomfort, and ice for the swelling. Swelling is completely normal and expected, ice, ice, ice, for the first day or so then as needed. Immediately after the procedure I went back to work and iced 20 min on and off and no one even knew that I had it done. As the swelling went down I had no sweat, no smell and even less hair!!! 3 positive things happened at once!! Thank you Dr. Guerra, now I can wear tight shirts, all colors and feel confident that my underarms are sweat free!! You, your office, and Miradry the best!!! I recommend Miradry and this office to everyone!! Thanks again!!
Don't Smell it!
FDA-cleared miraDry® treatments can eliminate the apocrine glands from the underarm region by using thermal energy. Apocrine glands produce an oily product which is metabolized by bacteria and is responsible for the odor we all experience in the underarms. When this technology is used the apocrine glands are eradicated with just one treatment in 80% of patients. The results of this minimally invasive procedure is an immediate eradication of that uncomfortable smell in the underarm. You will probably never have to buy deodorant again! The procedure just takes a few minutes for an effective result. Don't smell it, miraDry® is here!
Hair reduction is also a significant result of treatments with miraDry® even in individuals with fair hair. Patients are thrilled with the secondary positive effects of miraDry® which include a reduction of underarm hair and a reduction of odor.
