"The best money that I ever spent" - LSA for Bromhidrosis

Today one of our laser sweat ablation patients who had LSA for bromidrosis, returned to The Whiteley Clinic for her follow-up.

A 34-year-old office worker, she came to The Whiteley Clinic for assessment of her under arm sweating and smell in August 2010. She was diagnosed with bromidrosis (smelly sticky sweat from the under arms) and several non-surgical techniques were attempted.


As no other treatment worked, and as her partner was able to smell the bromidrosis to, we decided that it was worth trying laser sweat ablation for her problem.

In November she underwent laser sweat ablation (LSA) at The Whiteley Clinic using the new Whiteley LSA cannula and had a complication free recovery.

Today, eight weeks later, she returned to The Whiteley Clinic for review.

She stated that it was "the best money I have ever spent" and that it has "totally changed her life".

Before the LSA, she used to get up in the morning and a shower followed by washing the armpits with an antibacterial wash. She would then use deodorant before leaving home but, despite this, would still start getting the smell from the armpits permeating through her clothes by the end of the day.


Now she says that she could go the whole day without a shower knowing that she would not have any smell at all to trouble her.

Without the concern of whether she has odour from the underarms, she is now able to concentrate fully on her life and work. Thanks to laser sweat ablation using the Whiteley LSA cannula she should be able to put this whole episode behind her.

New LSA device - Invented by Mark Whiteley

On 25th July 2012, Mark Whiteley used the new Whiteley Laser Sweat Ablation (LSA) cannula for the first time in a patient:
The Whiteley Laser Sweat Ablation (LSA) cannula
- ensures a more even distribution of Laser energy
The Whiteley Laser Sweat Ablation (LSA) cannula holds the skin and the laser fibre at an exact angle throughout the procedure, reducing the risks of under treatment or skin burns.

In addition, the "iron" shaped end makes insertion through tiny incisions possible - as well as making the passage of the laser smooth as it moves over the inner surface of the skin.

This both speeds up the treatment, as well as making it easier for the doctor - and more reproducible to make the results from LSA as good as possible.

The Whiteley Laser Sweat Ablation (LSA) cannula
Other procedures that have been developed from Laser Sweat Ablation - such as Axillase - will also benefit from the Whiteley Laser Sweat Abltion (LSA) cannula.

The Whiteley Laser Sweat Ablation (LSA) cannula is exclusively available from Premier Health Resources.
