Body odor largely comes from the breakdown of sweat by bacteria on the skin surface. Hair removal can help reduce body odor by reducing the surface area for collecting sweat & bacteria. Antiperspirants help reduce body odor by reducing the outflow of sweat, though irritation is possible. Deodorants mask odor through fragrances, or by supporting the pH of the skin surface & reducing the amount of bacteria under the arm. Benzoyl peroxide washes also can reduce the amount of bacteria under the arm, improving body odor. @Dillon latham #hygienetips #bodyodor #hygieneroutine #dermatologist
