miraDry for Underarm Odor: How Effective Is It?

Many people consider miraDry for odour as well as sweating. Because it targets the glands involved in both, it can be effective for odour.

1. What causes underarm odour?

Odour comes from bacteria breaking down sweat, especially from apocrine glands in the underarm.

2. How miraDry helps

miraDry uses microwave energy to destroy sweat and odour glands. With fewer glands, there is less sweat for bacteria to break down, reducing odour.

3. Results

Many patients notice a significant reduction in odour after one session. Results are long-lasting because glands do not regenerate.

4. Who benefits most?

People with persistent underarm odour that does not respond well to deodorants or hygiene measures.

5. Recovery

Swelling, tenderness and numbness may last days to weeks.

6. Cost

At MIN Clinic, miraDry Fresh costs around KRW 1,900,000 to KRW 2,500,000 for both underarms. See our miraDry cost guide.

Conclusion

miraDry can significantly reduce underarm odour by destroying the glands involved. Message our English-speaking team on WhatsApp, or read more on our miraDry page.
