A retrospective study on comparing the surgery and microneedles radiofrequency and microwaves treatment in axillary osmidrosis

Abstract Objective To compare the traditional treatment of minimally invasion surgery with the evolving treatments of microneedles radiofrequency and microwaves, this study mainly focused on the clinical efficacy and the incidence rate (IR) of complications among three treatments. Methods From August 2017 to August 2018, a total of 76 patients with bilateral axillary osmidrosis were enrolled respectively underwent minimally invasion surgery, microneedles radiofrequency and microwaves treatment. All these subjects were evaluated the clinical outcomes and collected the complications by themselves or physicians. The difference of objective recovery or effective rate, subjective effective rate, the intense of sweat secretion or armpits hair, IR of complications among these three groups were studied. Results The baseline characteristics of 33 patients in surgery group, 24 patients in microneedles group and 19 patients in microwaves group were similar. Firstly, the objective clinical efficacy was similar, but the subjective effective rate in surgery group was the soundest. In addition, the reduction of sweat secretion was homologous in three group, but the intense of armpits hair reduction in microneedles group was the minimum in three groups. Moreover, surgery treatment caused the highest IR of complications and the broadest types of complications, especially for the IR of 87.9% in postoperative scar formation. Meanwhile, the microwaves treatment had the best safety profile. At last, the recurrence rate on 6 months postoperatively was also identical with no significant difference. Conclusions For the advantages and disadvantages of these three treatments, axillary osmidrosis patients should choose the proper therapy with comprehensive considerations.
