Brella

If you are an adult who is consistently bothered by excessive underarm sweating even when you are not exercising or are too hot, Brella™ could be right for you.

Certain individuals are not eligible for Brella™ treatment, including children or adolescents who have excessive underarm sweating. Adults who have excessive sweating related to other medical conditions or in body areas other than the underarms. Adults with active skin irritation or infection at the treatment site, or with any abrasions, nicks, or cuts at the treatment site.

Yes, Brella™ is the first and only FDA-cleared 3-minute SweatControl Patch™ to significantly reduce excessive underarm sweating due to primary axillary hyperhidrosis after a single in-office treatment. In rigorous trials, Brella™ was proven to be effective, safe, and well-tolerated to cut sweat production by half while improving confidence and daily living.

Brella™ is proven to significantly reduce excessive underarm sweating after a single treatment with results that last three to four months. Some participants in our clinical study had longer-lasting results, e.g., greater than four months; individual results will vary.

Yes, Brella™ works on all skin types and is proven to be safe and well-tolerated.

The Brella™ 3-Minute SweatControl Patch consists of a sodium sheet with an adhesive backing. When the Patch is applied to the underarm, the sodium comes into contact with the water in your sweat, generating heat. The heat precisely targets your underarm sweat glands to significantly reduce sweat production.

Brella™ is a quick, comfortable, and easy in-office treatment. It takes up to three minutes to treat each underarm and only one underarm is treated at a time.

During the procedure, the treated area may start to feel warm as time passes. You may also feel some stinging, pins and needles, or other sensations that may become more noticeable as the treatment takes place. This will be an indication that the Patch is interacting with your sweat and the treatment is working. In a clinical study, patients treated with Brella™ reported an average discomfort level of 2.4 (on a scale of 1-10, where 1 is minimal).

Brella™ is safe and generally well-tolerated. You may experience treatment-related minor redness or irritation, which typically resolves immediately after the procedure. Some patients had tenderness or sensitivity that lasted up to 48 hours.

Many patients see results within a few days. It is important to understand that this treatment reduces excessive underarm sweating. Brella™ will not stop sweating completely. If you exercise or are in a hot/muggy climate, you may still sweat in your underarms.

You will need to shave or clip your underarms at least 48 hours before treatment. On the day of your appointment, wear loose-fitting clothing. Make sure you drink plenty of water, so you are hydrated. Avoid wearing deodorant or antiperspirant to the appointment, if possible.

There’s no downtime after a Brella™ treatment.

This is called compensatory sweating, and it is a common side effect of treatments for excessive sweating. In a study by Brella™, this only happened to one patient, so it is not expected to be a common side effect, but it could happen. As results from a Brella™ 3-Minute SweatControl Patch treatment are temporary, if compensatory sweating occurs, it is expected that it will also be temporary.

You can resume your normal hair removal, deodorant, or antiperspirant use after the treatment. But, if your underarms feel irritated or tender, wait until it resolves.
