Have you ever felt like you sweat more than everyone else, even when you’re not exercising or under stress? Living with constant underarm sweating can be uncomfortable and embarrassing, especially when it affects your clothing choices or confidence in social settings. The good news is that lasting relief is possible.
At Skin & Beauty Center – West Hills, patients now have access to an advanced treatment that can permanently reduce underarm sweat and odor, helping you feel fresh and confident every day.
If you’re tired of deodorant that barely works or clothes that never seem to stay dry, here’s how this breakthrough technology can help you stay sweat-free for good.
Understanding Excessive Sweating
Sweating is a normal and healthy body function that helps regulate temperature, but for some people, the sweat glands are overactive. This condition, known as hyperhidrosis, leads to excessive perspiration even when the body doesn’t need to cool down.
It commonly affects the underarms, palms, and soles of the feet. Many people with hyperhidrosis describe feeling anxious about visible sweat stains or odor, and often find themselves reapplying deodorant throughout the day. Fortunately, effective and long-term treatments are now available.
Treatment Options for Underarm Sweating
There are two highly effective ways to reduce excessive underarm sweat.
1. Botox Injections
Botox temporarily blocks the nerve signals that activate the sweat glands. Results typically last several months, and treatments can be repeated for continued control.
2. miraDry: The Permanent Solution
For those looking for a more lasting result, miraDry offers permanent sweat and odor reduction. This innovative technology uses controlled microwave energy to safely eliminate the sweat glands beneath the skin. Once these glands are gone, they do not grow back, meaning long-term dryness and freedom from daily antiperspirant use.
How miraDry Works
The miraDry treatment is performed in-office and usually takes about an hour. Local anesthesia is applied to keep you comfortable while the handheld device delivers precise energy beneath the skin. The system cools the surface while targeting the sweat glands, ensuring safety and comfort throughout the procedure.
Most patients can resume normal activities the same day. Noticeable results are often seen after the first session, with maximum improvement after two treatments spaced about one month apart.
What to Expect After Treatment
Some patients experience mild swelling, tenderness, or numbness in the treated area for a few days. These effects typically resolve quickly, and most people report a dramatic, lasting reduction in underarm sweating and odor. The result is not just drier skin but renewed confidence in social, professional, and active settings.
