The small-incision shear method is an effective way to eliminate axillary bromhidrosis, but the risk of complications, such as skin necrosis and hematoma, needs to be noted. To avoid these problems, we present modified multi-mini-incisions in quadrants shearing method here, which can decrease the risk of skin necrosis and hematoma. A total of 10 patients with axillary bromhidrosis received the treatment. The armpit area was divided into four quadrants. Four 3-mm-long incisions perpendicular to the ground were made at the center of each quadrant. We used tissue scissors to dissect subcutaneous tissue pocket by pocket. The results were collected for a 6-month follow-up evaluation. A total of 10 patients were all satisfied with the improvement. No serious complications were noted, and no patients had revision surgery. Postoperative scars were only slightly visible, and micropores were invisible 6 months after the operation. Our modified small-incision shear method is proven to lead to fewer complications, such as skin necrosis and hematoma, with obvious curative effects.
