Reading Time: <1 minuteRelated medical associations have issued warnings after fatal cases involving MiraDry occurred while treating groin odor.https://biyouhifuko.com/news/japan/515/ In the past, there have been many accidents and incidents in which many patients have undergone cosmetic surgery and unfortunately lost their lives. Most of these are due to the doctor's lack of skill or non-compliant procedures that prioritize profit. The overwhelming majority of fatal accidents in cosmetic surgery are liposuction, followed by arterial severance due to osteotomy. The recent MiraDry death incident is unusual. Some doctors think it was impossible, but I think it is a tragic incident that could have easily happened. The reason is that if a nurse had performed the procedure, third-degree burns were possible → third-degree burns are inevitable, and infections are likely to occur in delicate areas → infections from burns are likely to become serious, so be careful. There is also a risk of future infections, especially if they occur over a wide area. It was predictable. For many years, I have repeatedly warned on my blog about the risks of MiraDry nurse treatments and treatments for breast and groin odor. It is truly unfortunate that such an incident occurred. There are many cosmetic surgery clinics that attract customers with exaggerated advertising that MiraDry has no downtime, but in fact there is more downtime than surgery. It's safe because there's no cutting...that's impossible. Liposuction doesn't cut either, does it? It's safe and there's less pain and downtime because it doesn't use a scalpel...On what basis are they abusing medically incorrect ideas as a way to deceive patients? The equation "no scalpel = safe" doesn't hold up. The most painful of all traumatic injuries is burns. MiraDry is a medical device that burns normal skin and destroys sweat glands. Since microwave irradiation is used to apply heat energy to the skin, it is common sense that the invasiveness is greater than that of incision. Therefore, there is no way that there won't be pain and swelling during the downtime, and the pain and swelling from burns will be intense for a long time. It is a complete lie that MiraDry is a treatment that doesn't swell or hurt. It is a medical fact that there is severe swelling and pain after MiraDry treatment. Unscrupulous cosmetic surgery clinics are deceiving patients by claiming that MiraDry is effective for underarm odor, breast odor, and groin odor, which are not suitable for this treatment, and that there is no downtime. The current situation has not improved at all. The relevant academic societies have issued recommendations that the safety of MiraDry has not been confirmed for areas outside of the scope of the treatment. If there is a cosmetic surgery clinic that advertises that MiraDry treatment is effective for breast odor and groin odor, we recommend that you do not undergo treatment at all. One way to identify an unscrupulous cosmetic surgery clinic → Treating groin odor with MiraDry! (They are hiding the risk of death) Many patients have come to our clinic after receiving MiraDry for groin odor treatment, but suffered burns and saw no results. Of course, the practitioner in charge is a cosmetic nurse. It is truly frightening. I would like weekly magazines to cover this kind of medical procedure that threatens human lives. This is also for the normalization of cosmetic medicine.
