Austin Dermatologists Employ Innovative Solution for Underarm Sweat

AUSTIN, TX--(Marketwired - Dec 23, 2015) - Dr. Adam Mamelak and Dr. Miriam Hanson recently adopted the miraDry® treatment at Sanova Dermatology to help patients who have been living with chronic excessive underarm sweat. According to the dermatologists, the condition can be more than simply an inconvenience. Whether it is normal sweating or medical excessive sweating known as hyperhidrosis, underarm sweat can contribute to skin irritation, cause clothing stains, or make the patient feel embarrassed in public situations.

Since antiperspirants are often not a sufficient solution for their patients with underarm sweat, Drs. Mamelak and Hanson are enthusiastic about this new treatment option. The Austin dermatologists explain: "By using the power of electromagnetic energy, the FDA-approved miraDry® system can actually eliminate the sweat glands in and around the underarm area that cause excess sweat." Effective for patients of all skin types, miraDry® has the additional benefits of being a non-invasive treatment with little to no downtime.

For their patients who worry that eliminating their underarm sweat glands will be detrimental to the health of their bodies, Drs. Mamelak and Hanson reassure that the treatment does not prevent the body from keeping cool. "Since the body contains millions of sweat glands, the elimination of underarm sweat glands does not impact the body's ability to moderate your core temperature." The miraDry® procedure takes about an hour to complete, and according to Drs. Mamelak and Hanson, the results are typically immediate for the patient.

With miraDry®, the patients of Sanova Dermatology have been able to permanently take control of excessive and unwanted underarm sweat. Drs. Mamelak and Hanson highlight that this innovative treatment option has a very high patient satisfaction rate. Their patients report feeling more confident in their day-to-day interactions and experiencing a boost in their overall quality of life.
