Hi, i am currently waiting for surgery to help with the sweating in my underarms, the doctor has suggested going with shaving down the sweat glands under my arms, instead of remobing them totally (due to it leaving a giant hole in the underarms) and cutting the nerves (due to the compensatery sweating). I have been having trouble finding info on this sort of procedure and would love to hear from anyone who has had it done .

I *think* it is called curretage surgery

With curettage the sweat glands under the skin are removed by scraping. Curettage is more effective than liposuction as many of the glands are left behind by suction and grow back within 6 months".
