Miramar Labs Inc. raised $35.8 million in a Series C funding round, leaving them just shy of their $36 million goal, according to an SEC filing.
The Sunnyvale, Calif.-based company’s claim to fame is miraDry, a laser-based treatment for excessive underarm sweat. The device uses microwave energy to cook sweat glands in two hour-long noninvasive doctor’s office visits.
The company plans to use the funds to begin marketing the device, according to Xconomy.
New investors Aisling Capital and Cross Creek Capital led the round, which was joined by existing investors Domain Associates and Morgenthaler Ventures, Xconomy reported.
The miraDry device won clearance from the U.S. Food & Drug Administration in February.
