Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Primary localized hyperhidrosis is a dermatological disorder that involves excessive sweat production without an underlying cause. The disease usually affects the axillae but can also involve palms, soles of the feet or face and causes major problems in many social situations with a negative impact on quality of life and mental health.

In this study, the investigators want to investigate the effect of microwave therapy (MiraDry®) on self-rated sweating, quality of life and anxiety in participants with severe axillary hyperhidrosis. The study also aims to evaluate the safety (side effects) of the method and long term effects over 1 year of follow upp.
