Armpit odor is a very private disease, many patients are afraid that friends, colleagues, classmates around them know that they have a body odor, try by all means to try to apply topical solutions to cover up, and at the same time, must be carefully hidden in places unknown to others. But, after all, topical solutions are not a permanent solution, as if paper can’t cover fire, any carelessness will be the previous efforts will go down the drain. Perhaps the friends around you who know what to do will be deep and not mention anything about it, but in your eyes, the group has already started to back away from you, with taboo in their eyes, isn’t that so? So why do so many patients do not try the surgical treatment method? I summarize down mainly out of the following three concerns. 1, worried about surgery caused by unsightly scars under the armpit Perhaps this has become the reason why more than 90% of young patients with armpit odor, especially girls refuse surgery. Decades ago, surgeons for the first batch of armpit odor patients to do the surgery is to remove a wide range of axillary hair distribution area of the skin, so as to achieve the root cause, it can be said that this is the ideal effect of the surgery, but the resulting huge underarm scars can still be seen in many people’s armpits until today. It must be admitted that no surgery can be completely scarless and I have repeatedly warned patients that if any doctor or hospital promises you no scars after armpit odor surgery, it is clear that they are luring you in and cheating you out of your money. However, in the development of armpit odor surgery today more and more doctors pursue small incisions, or even minimally invasive, the kind of appalling scars in the past has become history. However, I still want to splash a pot of cold water, even in modern surgery, after surgery, different patients, or even the same patient’s armpits on both sides of the scar will still appear large and small, the scar color is dark and light, the skin around the scar is crinkled and not crinkled. This depends entirely on how beautifully the surgeon does his job. The scar is a little longer and a little rougher, which has no effect on the doctor and even facilitates the process of his surgery, but for you, that is the money spent to buy two big scars to suffer for life. 2, worry about the surgery itself, fear of surgery failure In some large forums, I often see patients who have done surgery posting exchange experience. There is no shortage of post-operative relapses, and even a month after surgery to quickly return to the original. This has a great impact on patients who have not had surgery. I don’t want to say much about this, after all, surgery is not the production of goods, there is no 100% success rate, but I am distressed that not a few doctors in the industry to pursue monetary benefits to patients suffering in spite of the shoddy production, and some places even mixed, purely rotten phenomenon. 3, fear of surgery leads to more people know surgery, sounds like a big deal, will certainly alarm the surrounding neighbors, friends or relatives, which has become a major factor preventing patients from receiving surgical treatment. Surgery is a rigorous science and a rigorous art. For both patients and doctors, it is worth advocating to think twice before proceeding, but in my humble opinion, it is not enough for patients to be afraid of surgery. The key is that when you look to a surgeon to help you get rid of years of pain, he is not worthy of your trust which needs to be carefully considered.
