miraDry® patients see an 85 percent or greater reduction in sweating as well as a reduction in odor. Traditional antiperspirants only provide a 20 percent reduction in sweat and odor. For women, there can be a wanted reduction in underarm hair after treatment. Men will still retain their underarm hair after the procedure as they tend to have so much more, but may find it to be slightly thinner than before.
Both men and women who have more under arm sweating than they desire can benefit from miraDry treatments in Reno, NV. This treatment is safe and may be the better alternative to Botox injections for many patients as it is permanent. The results of this aesthetic treatment are long-lasting and can give patients a major boost in self-confidence following the completion of the treatment.
You’ll meet with one of the JanigaMDs team members for a consultation where you’ll discuss the treatment options for underarm sweat and odor. The burden of underarm sweat can be challenging, and our team will help you understand your next steps. Treating axillary hyperhidrosis can have an immense impact on your day-to-day life and we look forward to helping you have confidence for whatever life throws at you.
miraDry® treatment takes about one and a half hours and involves little discomfort and immediate and lasting results after one treatment. When you visit JanigaMDs for your procedure, your axilla will be cleaned, then local anesthesia will be placed with injections. Then, the specialized handpiece will be used to treat one axilla at a time. Most patients describe it as a slight warming or suction sensation, but it’s not painful. Each armpit takes between 15-45 minutes to complete depending on your body size. After the procedure, the area is cleaned and you’re free to go.
After miraDry treatment, you can expect some swelling, redness, and tenderness in your treatment area for a few days. You may also see something like mild bruising on the skin – this is normal and will resolve like a normal bruise would. These aftereffects typically subside within a few days. We ask you to refrain from working out for the first week after your treatment, but most patients will not need to change their usual day-to-day plans or work schedule during recovery. Your specific needs based on your job and unique situation will be addressed during your initial consultation and re-affirmed after your procedure.
Generally, patients see results after only a single treatment, but we’ll work with you to determine a personalized course of treatment that maximizes your results. Some patients will want an additional treatment to achieve their ideal results, but most patients are very satisfied after one.

As a patient of both Dr. Jennifer and Tim Janiga, I have the utmost praise for the care I have received. They are fantastic at what they do. The attention to detail and going ‘above and beyond’ is very much appreciated.
I’m giving Dr. Janiga 5 stars because of I love the results of my surgeries. He listened to my concerns and we decided together the best options based on my budget and the outcome that I wanted. He did a Lip Lift for me in May 2015. I am so happy with the results. My thin flat upper lip now has that cute cupids bow and it looks natural. He did this surgery in his in his Office Surgical Suite.
I’ve had microneedling, fillers, and Botox with Charlotte and I am very happy with the results. Charlotte is always so informative and answers all of my questions. I really like her conservative approach and recommendations. She is friendly and we always have great conversation!
