The Morpheus8 Applicator using radio frequency energy is being tested for treating excessive underarm sweating (axillary hyperhidrosis). This device uses Fractional RF technology aimed at reducing sweat production in the area treated. The study will evaluate how safe and effective this treatment is compared to current methods.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
