Steps for minimally invasive removal of apocrine glands

In general, minimally invasive removal of apocrine glands refers to the use of a minimally invasive procedure for eliminating axillary osmidrosis by excising the apocrine glands. This approach is characterized by small incisions and rapid recovery. The specific steps are as follows:

1. Position the patient in a supine position with both arms placed behind the head to fully expose the axillary area.

2. Mark the extent of the axillary hair region and administer local anesthesia with lidocaine in the surgical area.

3. Make a 0.5 cm to 1 cm incision in the central part of the axilla, then use a curette or suction device to remove the apocrine glands.

4. Irrigate the surgical site with normal saline to remove any residual tissue from the cavity.

5. Use an electrocautery device to control bleeding at the bleeding points. After confirming hemostasis, suture the wound.

If this procedure is required, it is recommended to visit a正规 hospital and undergo the operation under the guidance of a qualified physician to minimize surgical risks. Postoperatively, pay close attention to wound care to prevent infection and promote proper healing.
