Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of microneedle radiofrequency for minimally invasive interventional treatment of bromhidrosis.
Methods:From March 2016 to June 2017, Thirty-one bromhidrosis patients were treated with microneedle radiofrequency equipment (Bodytite armpits). Clinical follow up was then evaluated with Park standard.
Results:Six to twelve months after surgery (average 8.58 months), malodor were totally eliminated in thirty patients. One patient with residual malodor was cured by second operation. There were no significant scars in all patients. Five patients were observed with mild pigmentation.
Conclusions:The microneedle radiofrequency treatment is a simple, efficient and safe method for minimally invasive interventional treatment of bromhidrosi.
