1, how is the formation of armpit odor? Armpit odor is what we call “fox odor”. Our body has two kinds of sweat glands, sweat glands and small sweat glands, sweat glands are also known as top-secreting sweat glands. In our armpits are distributed in a large number of sweat glands, sweat glands can secrete a viscous emulsion, this emulsion contains proteins, lipids and other substances, because in the human body shows that there are many bacteria living, when these emulsions are secreted, the distribution of these bacteria in the armpits can decompose this material to produce a special smell, which is what we usually smell ” fox” smell; 2, the onset of axillary odor what is the law? Because the secretion of the sweat glands is regulated by sex hormones, so it is more obvious during puberty, and more common in female patients; because the weather is hotter in the summer, so the sweat glands secrete more vigorously, and the symptoms of fox odor are more prominent in the summer; 3, what is the impact of axillary odor on people? Because the smell is very unpleasant, so it often affects interpersonal communication, causing a lot of inconvenience and a large psychological burden to patients; 4, what is the principle of axillary odor treatment? Regardless of the method, the core is to remove most of the sweat glands in the armpit, thereby reducing the unpleasant smell; 5, what are the methods of axillary odor treatment? In general, there are two types: a non-surgical treatment, including injections of anhydrous alcohol, botulinum toxin, ionization, laser, etc., and a surgical treatment, with minimally invasive, cosmetic incisions, S or M and other kinds of modified incisions; 6, anhydrous alcohol treatment of axillary odor? Anhydrous alcohol treatment for armpit odor is a very old method, now basically abandoned, its principle is mainly to use anhydrous alcohol injection into the armpit to make the hair follicle sweat gland necrosis, but if not done properly, the side effects are still quite large; 7, ionization and laser treatment for armpit odor? You can choose these two treatment methods, but these two treatment methods may not do a clean, if the post-operative infection after the color is very obvious; 8, botulinum toxin why can treat armpit odor? Botulinum toxin is what we usually call “slimming needle”, is a neurotoxin, use it to treat armpit odor is a relatively new method, the injection is very fast, 3-5 minutes to end, but need to play once a year, mainly practical for fear of surgery, or busy work, there is not enough post-operative leave period of patients, there are still A considerable number of people are willing to choose this treatment method; 9, surgery for armpit odor? Surgery for armpit odor is a more thorough method to fundamentally remove the sweat glands to achieve the purpose of treatment; but after surgery requires rest, must have about 2 weeks of vacation, and 1 month can not have a relatively large upper limb limb movements; 10, how to choose the time of surgery? First of all, it is best to do after adulthood, that is, after the age of 18, because the number of sweat glands is more stable at this time, too small to do, there is a possibility of recurrence, because the adolescent sweat glands are very vigorous, if not clear and clean, there may be regeneration, yes, armpit odor again; secondly, it is best not to choose summer to do this surgery, although the summer symptoms are the heaviest, the most attention to your attention, because the summer is hot The surgery is done with at least 3-5 days of axillary pressure bandage, the hot summer increases the chance of infection; 11, what are the complications of surgery? Hematoma formation, infection, skin necrosis, scar formation; any surgery is risky, so is axillary odor, but as long as the patient follows the doctor’s instructions, timely treatment, these complications can be avoided; the current surgical method used in our department is “modified small incision skin flip under direct vision axillary sweat gland excision surgery”, which It has the advantages of quick recovery, good results, low recurrence rate and inconspicuous scars, and is considered to be the best means to completely treat axillary odor. The surgery is done under local anesthesia, and the sweat glands and hair follicles are removed from the armpit together, while the surface of the skin is kept intact. The wound can be completely healed in about 10-14 days after surgery, which does not affect normal work and study, and there is generally no pulling sensation and little change in the appearance of the axilla, which can meet the treatment needs of patients with various degrees and recurrent axillary odor.
