Surgical intervention can be considered for the eradication of bromhidrosis (axillary osmidrosis). Typically, this involves surgical excision of the apocrine glands in the axillary region, which offers the highest likelihood of preventing recurrence. Alternatively, bromhidrosis may be treated with laser therapy or localized botulinum toxin injections. Bromhidrosis itself results from excessive secretion by the axillary apocrine glands and is characterized by a pronounced foul odor. It has a genetic predisposition and is also influenced by individual constitutional factors, carrying an inherent risk of recurrence.
