Reading Time: <1 minuteThe truth about MiraDry in treating underarm odor: A thorough explanation of its effectiveness and risks Every week, many patients undergo MiraDry treatment to treat underarm odor. However, unfortunately, there is a steady stream of patients who do not see any results and come to our clinic from all over the country to ask about retreatment. The reality of MiraDry: Many cases where it is ineffective There have been reported cases where people have undergone MiraDry treatment three times, yet still suffer from unbearable pain and long-term swelling after the treatment, making it difficult for them to carry out their daily lives. Furthermore, despite paying high medical costs, some patients have not seen any results, and may even be left with burn-like scars. Online advertisements are full of exaggerated claims such as "almost no pain," "Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare approved equipment," "no downtime," and "odor disappears after one treatment," but in reality, these claims are often different from reality. Is MiraDry effective in treating underarm odor? MiraDry may temporarily reduce odor, but for many people, the odor returns to its original state over time. On the other hand, it has been shown to be somewhat effective in reducing underarm sweating. The MiraDry device approved by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare is a treatment device for primary axillary hyperhidrosis, not a treatment device for axillary hyperhidrosis (body odor). This is also clearly stated on the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare's official website. Risks and problems of miraDry After miraDry treatment, you may experience significant pain and swelling, so advertising "no downtime" can be misleading. Also, there have been deaths from miraDry in 2023, so the claim that there are absolutely no risks is untrue. Furthermore, safety is questionable when the procedure is performed by a nurse. Here are the main issues with miraDry:

1. Hype
2. They hide the fact that it is ineffective against underarm odor.
3. Treatment by nurses
4. Treatment on non-applicable areas (areola, hem, etc.)
5. No information about fatalities released
