Best age for body odor surgery in children

The best age for body odor surgery in children is after puberty, usually 16 years old and above.

Before puberty, children's body development is not fully mature. At this time, armpit apocrine glands may not be fully developed and stable. Premature surgery may not completely remove the source of odor, and the risk of recurrence after surgery is relatively high

. Adolescents

aged 16 and above

are relatively mature.
