Introduction
In general, treatment of axillary osmidrosis with water-jet surgery may cure the condition, but it may not always achieve a complete cure. The outcome mainly depends on individual differences, surgical technique, and postoperative care, so results vary from case to case. After treatment, it is recommended to pay attention to local care, wear loose-fitting cotton clothing to minimize friction, and avoid consuming overly greasy or spicy foods to prevent recurrence of the condition.
In general, water-jet surgery for axillary osmidrosis may or may not completely cure the condition, depending on individual differences, surgical technique, and postoperative care. The outcome varies from case to case. Specific details are as follows:
1. Possible
Water-jet surgery is a minimally invasive treatment method with relatively low trauma to the body. This technique typically prevents recurrence of axillary odor, with a recovery period of approximately 7–9 days. Patients should disinfect and change dressings at the affected site regularly under medical guidance. The wound should avoid contact with water to prevent infection, and diet should be kept light.
2. Not possible
Although water-jet surgery is generally safe, all surgical procedures carry certain risks. Potential complications include postoperative pain, swelling, infection, and scarring. If patients fail to follow proper postoperative care, dietary restrictions, or maintain regular作息 (daily routines), recurrence may occur. Therefore, patients must seek treatment at a正规 (standardized) professional medical facility.
After treatment, it is recommended to carefully care for the local area, wear loose-fitting cotton clothing to minimize friction, and avoid consuming overly greasy or spicy foods to reduce the risk of recurrence.
