If underarm sweat and odor are affecting your daily life, you’re not alone—and you don’t have to settle for it. At NoSweat Fort Wayne, we offer miraDry®, a nonsurgical solution that targets the source of excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) by reducing the number of sweat and odor glands under the arms. This quick, effective treatment helps you stay dry, confident, and free from daily worry.
What Is Sweat Reduction with miraDry?
Sweating is normal, but when it’s excessive, it can stain your clothes, impact your confidence, and make everyday life uncomfortable. miraDry uses advanced thermal energy to safely eliminate sweat glands in your underarms. Since these glands don’t grow back, most patients enjoy long-lasting results after just one or two treatments.

Who Is a Candidate for miraDry?
You may be a good fit for miraDry if you:

Dr. Philip Rettenmaier will review your concerns and determine if miraDry is the right option for you.
What Happens During Treatment?
At your appointment, we’ll apply a topical anesthetic to keep you comfortable. Once the area is marked, the miraDry handpiece is gently guided over your underarm. It uses suction to pull the glands closer to the surface and delivers targeted heat to destroy them—without damaging your skin.
Treatment usually takes about an hour, and most patients return to normal activities the same day. You may notice some swelling, redness, or numbness, but these effects typically fade within a few days. We recommend avoiding intense exercise for 2–3 days to allow the area to heal.
What to Expect After miraDry
- Less underarm sweat and odor, starting right away
- A quick return to most daily activities
- Long-lasting results—glands don’t grow back
- The option for a second treatment to boost results
Most patients see up to 80% reduction in underarm sweating after their second session.
