miraDry Fresh in Gangnam, Seoul
The latest miraDry protocol for underarm sweat and odour — microwave energy that eliminates glands through cooled skin, with an extra pass included when your doctor recommends it.
What is miraDry Fresh?
miraDry Fresh is a non-surgical underarm treatment that uses controlled microwave energy to heat and permanently eliminate sweat (eccrine) and odour (apocrine) glands while the skin surface is cooled. It is designed to reduce underarm sweating, odour and often hair in a single session with minimal downtime. Because eliminated glands do not regenerate, results are long-lasting.
At MIN Clinic, each miraDry Fresh session is customised to your sweat level and skin. After the standard pass, an additional pass (double shot) can be applied to enhance the result — this is included in the price.

miraDry Fresh questions we hear most
Can’t find your answer? Message our English-speaking team on WhatsApp.
What is the difference between miraDry and miraDry Fresh?
Both use the same microwave principle on underarm glands. miraDry Fresh refers to the updated protocol and settings used today; your doctor will explain what is applied in your session.
Is one session enough?
Most patients notice a clear reduction after one session. An extra pass can be added during the same visit, and some people choose a second session later for further reduction.
Does miraDry Fresh hurt?
Local anaesthetic is used, so most people feel pressure and warmth rather than pain. Tenderness and swelling afterwards usually settle in a few days.
How much is miraDry Fresh in Seoul?
At MIN Clinic, a standard treatment is ₩1.9M–2.5M with any additional pass included, plus 10% VAT for non-exempt patients. See miraDry cost in Korea.
Will it reduce my underarm hair?
Often yes, hair is reduced as a side effect, but it is not a hair-removal treatment. For complete hair removal consider laser hair removal.
