While sweating helps to stabilize our body temperature when we are overheated, excessive underarm sweating is unnecessary, embarrassing, and can even ruin clothes. It’s time to say goodbye to your trashcan full of useless deodorants and sweat-stained clothes, and say hello to a permanent solution. We are one of a limited number of facilities in the Philadelphia area who offer exactly this, with the miraDry procedure.
Dr. Ringpfeil featured on CBS3 and talks about using the FDA-approved miraDry device to zap away underarm sweat
Anti-perspirants, medications, and Botox injections only offer temporary relief for excessive underarm sweating. The miraDry procedure uses microwave technology to permanently reduce sweating by 85% after only two treatments.
The miraDry destroys sweat glands in the underarms by delivering electromagnetic energy directly to the level of the skin that contains the sweat glands. Once the sweat glands are eradicated, they no longer produce sweat or odor. The procedure is performed in our office by our experienced aestheticians and takes about 2 hours.
Significant reduction in sweating is noticed after one treatment. However, up to three treatments can be performed for maximum results.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. After injection of local anesthesia, the procedure is painless.
Swelling, soreness, numbness, bruising, and redness in the underarms are common for 2-14 days after the procedure. A “lumpy” feeling can also last for up to 3 months. Rarely, tingling and numbness can last for several months after the procedure.
We have recently developed a new treatment protocol that enables us to eliminate underarm sweat and odor in a single treatment. However, if you suffer from Hyperhidrosis you may need a second treatment.
Price depends on the number of treatments you need to achieve desire results. Schedule a free cosmetic consultation to learn about expected cost.
