Trial Outcomes & Findings for Evaluation of 1440nm Laser vs. Botulinum Toxin or miraDry® Microwave For Treatment of Axillary Hyperhidrosis (NCT NCT01811004)

NCT ID: NCT01811004

Last Updated: 2021-01-22

Results Overview

A gravimetry test was performed to determine the quantity of sweat produced, comparing the post-treatment to the baseline numbers. A pre-weighted filter paper was placed on the armpit, and then weighed afterwards to determine the quantity of sweat produced.

Nd: YAG Laser and miraDry
Nd: YAG laser 1440nm and miraDry For each patient, one axilla was treated with the 1440 nm Diode laser and the opposite axilla was treated with miraDry. The subject is treated with miraDry at day 0, and again at day 90. Nd:YAG Laser: Nd:YAG 1440 nm Diode Laser with a Rep Rate of 25 Hz. Total energy around 1500 J per 5cm x 5cm sector.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 1 month follow up

Population: One subject in the Botox treatment was a no-show to their scheduled follow up.

A gravimetry test was performed to determine the quantity of sweat produced, comparing the post-treatment to the baseline numbers. A pre-weighted filter paper was placed on the armpit, and then weighed afterwards to determine the quantity of sweat produced.
