Miradry is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment for the permanent reduction of excessive underarm sweating, available exclusively in Marseille at Phénicia Medical Spa.
The treatment uses electromagnetic energy technology to target and eliminate sweat glands under the armpits. Sweat glands are responsible for producing sweat, and by eliminating these glands, Miradry can significantly reduce the amount of sweat produced.
The treatment is carried out in one or two sessions spaced a few months apart. During the session, the patient is given a local anesthetic and the Miradry device is applied to the area to be treated. Electromagnetic pulses are then emitted to target the sweat glands.
The treatment is painless, leaves no scars, and requires no recovery time. Most patients see a significant reduction in sweating after the first session.
However, it is important to note that Miradry is not suitable for everyone and must be performed by a physician trained in this technology. Side effects such as bruising, temporary pain, and numbness may occur, but they are usually minor and short-lived.
Overall, Miradry is an effective and safe option for people who suffer from excessive underarm sweating and are looking to permanently reduce their sweat production.
Miradry is considered an effective treatment for the permanent reduction of excessive underarm sweating.
Clinical studies have shown a significant reduction in underarm sweat production in patients treated with Miradry.
In fact, the results of these studies showed that sweat reduction averaged 82% in patients treated with Miradry, with an improvement in quality of life related to sweating.
82% reduction in sweat, 90% reduction in odor, 72% reduction in hair growth.
Underarm sweating accounts for only 2% of overall sweating. No disruption to the body's thermoregulation.
Treatment results may vary depending on the individual patient. Some patients may require multiple sessions to achieve the desired results, while others may see a significant reduction after just one session.
It is also important to understand that Miradry does not cure excessive sweating, but significantly reduces it.
Factors such as stress, hormones, and the consumption of certain foods and medications can influence sweat production, even after successful Miradry treatment.

Other medical treatments exist to eliminate sweating:
- Thoracic sympathectomy is a surgical procedure for treating excessive sweating that involves removing certain nerve connections near the spinal cord. This surgical procedure requires general anesthesia. The results are satisfactory, but there are many drawbacks, particularly compensatory sweating. The body will compensate by producing more sweat in other areas, such as the back. This means that you will still experience wet back and sweat stains.
- Botox (botulinum toxin) injections suppress sweating in the treated area for 4 to 6 months.
