Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: minimally invasive surgery
There is only one arm to this study. All patients will receive treatment with the minimally invasive surgery for their axillary bromidrosis
Subcutaneous fat and apocrine sweat glands were removed by suction under tumescent anesthesia,and the remaining tissue and glands, tightly attached to the epidermis-dermis interface, were completely removed with scissors through the initial small incision.
