Miramar Labs MiraDry ? Perfect Condition? miraDry System?consisting

Surgery: The miraDry System is intended for the treatment of
primary axillary hyperhidrosis and was recently cleared for the
permanent removal of underarm hair. TECHNICAL?OVERVIEW The miraDry?
System uses microwave energy to eradicate the underarm sweat
glands.?Clinical Results?indicate that the sweat glands that are
targeted do not grow back after treatment. In the axilla (underarm
?armpit?) there are glands known as ?eccrine? and ?apocrine?
glands. These are sweat and odor glands, respectively. The axilla
has a very high concentration of eccrine and apocrine glands.
The?miraDry? System focuses precise microwave energy to deliver
temperatures in excess of 60?C throughout the entire region of
target axilla tissue. The focused energy is designed to target
these glands specifically and is required??for permanent
destruction of the glands. It is the only?FDA-cleared?procedure
for?treating hyperhidrosis.? This results in significant and
permanent reduction of underarm sweat and odor. Patients can expect
an average of 82% reduction in underarm sweat according to clinical
research.
