There are often inquiries about how to get rid of armpit odor in the clinic. First of all, it is important to understand that armpit odor is not a disease. The armpits are moist and warm, and are prone to bacterial growth such as staphylococcus. When the sweat secreted by the axillary sweat glands is excreted to the surface of the body, it is easily decomposed by microorganisms and produces oily organic substances, thus emitting an unpleasant smell close to that of foxes – armpit odor. The smell of the armpit in fact everyone has, just compared to normal people, armpit odor of people with armpit sweat glands will be more developed. Some people have less developed sweat glands, but the secretion function is very strong, so they will also emit the smell. Usually if the smell is not particularly strong, you can not consider surgery, through some topical medicine can achieve the effect of temporary correction. However, if the smell is particularly strong and has affected the daily social life and psychological development, surgery can be considered. At present, the main surgical methods are minimally invasive and total excision. The effect of total excision is relatively complete, but will leave a relatively long contracture scar, and some patients will have difficulty lifting the upper arm and other symptoms. This method has been slowly eliminated. Minimally invasive surgery uses special instruments to scratch through a soy-sized incision in the armpit. The advantage is that the incision is small and basically leaves no trace after surgery, but the surgical effect is limited and the hemostasis is not complete, easily causing subcutaneous hematoma and skin necrosis. At present, it is preferred to improve the small incision skin flip under direct vision axillary sweat gland removal, the effect is more accurate, hemostasis is complete, and the postoperative scar is not obvious.
