Say Goodbye to Sweat Stains With MiraDry

March 19, 2026

Sweating is normal, especially when working in hot temperatures or working out. In fact, most of the time, the goal is to break a sweat!

But what about when you’re simply resting, socializing, or not doing anything too physically exhaustive?

While sweating can happen anywhere on your body, excessive perspiration can really affect your underarms, causing you to rethink outfits, activities, or even waving to someone.

If you are ready to free yourself from constant sweat stains, try miraDry in Plano. This treatment effectively targets sweat glands located under your arms in just 2 sessions.

To learn more about MiraDry and why our team at McGuiness Dermatology & Plastic Surgery loves this treatment, read this blog.

What Causes Excessive Sweating?

Excessive sweating is a condition known as hyperhidrosis; it’s characterized by the following symptoms:

Sweating that disrupts your daily routine.
An episode of excessive sweating that occurs at least once a week.
Itching, inflammation, or increased risk of skin conditions.
Body odor from sweat mixing with bacteria.
Damp clothing.

There are 2 types of hyperhidrosis:

Primary: A genetic medical condition with no other associated cause.
Secondary: Excessive sweating caused by an underlying disease or reaction to medication.

To get an accurate diagnosis, you can visit a hyperhidrosis doctor who can determine the cause of your sweating.

What Is MiraDry?

MiraDry is a noninvasive sweat and odor reduction treatment that uses heat energy to eliminate your sweat glands.

This sleek handpiece uses thermal energy to target your sweat glands and emit electromagnetic energy at a frequency and depth that is absorbed by the water content in your sweat glands. The heat destroys your sweat glands while leaving the surrounding skin and tissue unharmed.

Why Our Team Loves MiraDry

Here’s why our team loves miraDry in Plano.

Reduces Odor

Sweat itself is odorless, so why does it produce a certain stench? The smell that is associated with sweat is actually a combination of perspiration that comes into contact with bacteria on your skin.

By reducing underarm perspiration and targeting odor glands, miraDry tackles both pit stains and their associated smell.

Long-Lasting Results

After just 1 to 2 sessions, you can experience years of sweat-free bliss. Once the sweat glands are destroyed, they don’t regenerate, meaning that you don’t have to worry about yearly or monthly maintenance sessions.

For some patients, the results may even be permanent.

Comfortable Sessions

Most patients describe the miraDry procedure as painless. Our team also administers local anesthesia to enhance your comfort.

Not only are these sessions nearly painless, but they also require no downtime, meaning you can continue your day as usual.

Reduced Sweat Stains

With less perspiration under your arms, you feel more comfortable in the clothes you wear. You no longer have to worry about bringing a change of clothes or ruining your favorite top.
