Will having Sweat Gland Removal of the armpits stop bad odor?
dina78Apr 25, 2014
Hello I had botox to stop sweating due to me hating the bad odour that comes from having to wear longs leeves. The botox didn't stop the bad smell. I am thining of having this operation now after speaking to one cosmetic surgeon. Will having this operation done prevent the smell and how severe or dangerous is it? I got the feeling it was straight forward. Is this a common operation now an people just don't talk about it? Thank you
