Deodorant and other antiperspirant methods only work as a cover-up to mask the sweat and smell\u2014but miraDry actually gets to the root of the problem.<\/p>\n<p>When you come in for a miraDry treatment, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thebodydoc.com\/blog\/houston-plastic-surgeon\/\">Dr. Ciaravino<\/a> will use a handheld applicator to emit thermal energy to your underarms. This energy targets and destroys both the sweat and odor glands, eliminating both the perspiration and smell from your armpits\u2014now that\u2019s a package deal!<\/p>\n<h2>When to Receive MiraDry<\/h2>\n<p>Sweating is a normal function of the human body, but it shouldn\u2019t be an everyday occurrence. Since perspiring is your body\u2019s way of cooling itself down, exercise and high temperatures should be two of the only times you really sweat.<\/p>\n<p>If you are sick of trying brand after brand of deodorant, only to realize nothing stops your pits from sweating or smelling\u2014it\u2019s time to take action.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Is miraDry safe?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes!
