Bromhidrosis and hyperhidrosis are both unpleasant symptoms that occur in the underarm area, but they have different causes and characteristics.

First, bromhidrosis is odor caused by the combination of sweat secreted from the apocrine glands in the underarms and bacteria. Symptoms usually appear after puberty, and genetic factors have a major influence.

In contrast, hyperhidrosis is the excessive secretion of sweat in the underarms. Unlike bromhidrosis, it can occur regardless of season or temperature. Symptoms may also worsen due to emotional factors such as stress or tension.

These two conditions are separate diseases, but many people experience both symptoms together. In such cases, if surgery is being considered, underarm odor removal 'SIT surgery' can be a good option because it can improve bromhidrosis and hyperhidrosis at the same time.

SIT surgery for underarm odor removal is a patented technique that can simultaneously improve bromhidrosis and hyperhidrosis.

The basic principle is to remove the sweat glands in the underarms using a specially designed device. Unlike conventional underarm odor removal surgery, the procedure is performed through a small opening without making an incision, so there is almost no scarring and the recovery period is short.

Another advantage is that it can improve bromhidrosis and hyperhidrosis at the same time. As mentioned earlier, the two conditions can occur separately, but they often occur together, so this can be a more useful treatment option for patients.

SIT surgery, which improves bromhidrosis and hyperhidrosis at the same time, removes the apocrine sweat glands to a size of about 3 mm through a very small incision using a specially designed device.

Because SIT surgery does not require cutting the skin, there is almost no scarring. In addition, the recovery period is short, allowing a quick return to daily life.

It also causes less bleeding and pain because it does not damage surrounding tissue. In addition, the recurrence rate is relatively low, and it has the advantage of improving bromhidrosis and hyperhidrosis at the same time.

The recovery process after SIT surgery may vary from person to person, but in general it goes through the following steps.

1. Discharge is possible on the day of surgery, and showering and daily activities are allowed from the next day.
2. Stitches are removed about one week later. After that, light exercise can begin.

The following precautions should be observed.

• Avoid alcohol and smoking for about two weeks after surgery.
• Avoid scratching or irritating the surgical area.
• It is best to refrain from strenuous exercise or activity and get enough rest.

SIT surgery is a surgical method that can simultaneously improve bromhidrosis and hyperhidrosis. Also, because the surgery time and recovery period are short, it does not significantly interfere with daily life.

If you have been struggling with underarm odor and hyperhidrosis for a long time, how about considering SIT surgery? We hope you will make a careful decision by referring to the information provided by our clinic today.
