Brief summary
Patients with axillary osmidrosis are treated with minimally invasive procedure combined tumescent liposuction with Subcutaneous Pruning. Effectiveness of this modified method in reducing odor is to be determined.
Detailed description
Patients with excessive malodor are recruited. They are surgically treated with minimally invasive procedure combined tumescent liposuction with Subcutaneous Pruning and followed up for 6-24 months to evaluate effectiveness sand side effect.
Interventions
