The Only Permanent, FDA-Cleared, Non-Invasive Solution to Underarm Sweat, Now Available at Boston Plastic Surgery
Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Fouad Samaha in now offering miraDry®
BOSTON, June 25, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Unwanted underarm sweating—something nearly everyone experiences, often regardless of climate or temperature—can now be eliminated in a single, non-invasive, permanent procedure.
"miraDry® is a clinically proven, FDA-approved solution to underarm sweating that offers patients a significant, permanent reduction in underarm sweat and odor in as little as one treatment," says Dr. Fouad Samaha, board certified plastic surgeon at Boston Plastic Surgery. "miraDry works immediately. For some of our patients, this is life-changing, and it starts the day of the procedure."
Dr. Samaha and his team are excited to offer this procedure to their patients. Although originally developed to help patients with excessive underarm sweating, the technology can benefit anyone as they deal daily with the need to use chemical antiperspirants and fragranced deodorants.
"With this procedure you can feel clean and fresh at all times, choose to wear any fabric or article of clothing without worrying about staining or ruining your clothes, and feel more confident in social and professional situations," says Maureen Walls, R.N., nurse, patient care coordinator, and certified miraDry specialist at Boston Plastic Surgery.
Dr. Samaha has been treating patients with excessive sweating with BOTOX® injections for many years and notes that while effective, BOTOX injections are temporary, require repeat injections every few months, and might not be for everyone. Other alternative treatment options have limitations due to their invasiveness, cost, potential side effects, or reduced effectiveness.
The miraDry procedure works by delivering precisely controlled, heat-based energy to eliminate sweat and odor glands that reside in the underarms, which means you may no longer require deodorants or antiperspirants to cover up sweat and odor.
Dr. Samaha reports that the procedure is easy, essentially painless, and has little to no downtime. "A local anesthetic numbs the area to ensure maximum comfort, and most patients are able to go back to their standard routines and exercise within a few days of the treatment."
