Hyperhidrosis, with a prevalence of 1 to 2% of the population, primarily affects young people under 40 years of age. The individually perceived burden of odor and amount of sweat leads to a reduced quality of life. In recent years, conservative and surgical measures have been used to treat hyperhidrosis. The miraDry method based on microwave technology is a non-invasive treatment that enables comparable results in terms of effectiveness while at the same time reducing the burden. In the Park-Klinik Birkenwerder, 282 hyperhidrosis patients were treated with the miraDry method between 2017 and 2024. An online survey was conducted in May and June 2024. 220 patients were contacted, the results of 80 patients are available (response rate: 36.4%). Changes in the restrictions caused by increased sweating in various areas of life were asked before and after the treatment. In addition, the assessment of general quality of life before and after the treatment was compared. There is a significant reduction in restrictions and a corresponding increase in quality of life after treatment with miraDry. Satisfaction with the method is high, which is reflected in a high recommendation rate of over 80%.
多汗症的患病率为1%至2%，主要影响40岁以下的年轻人。个体感知到的气味负担和出汗量会导致生活质量下降。近年来，保守治疗和手术治疗都被用于多汗症的治疗。基于微波技术的miraDry方法是一种非侵入性治疗，在有效性方面能取得类似效果，同时还能减轻负担。在柏林万湖公园诊所，2017年至2024年期间有282名多汗症患者接受了miraDry方法治疗。2024年5月和6月进行了一项在线调查。联系了220名患者，其中80名患者的结果可用（回复率：36.4%）。询问了治疗前后生活各方面因出汗增多所导致的限制变化。此外，还比较了治疗前后总体生活质量的评估情况。使用miraDry治疗后，限制显著减少，生活质量相应提高。对该方法的满意度很高，推荐率超过80%就体现了这一点。
