Asked By:ucjes in Beaumont, TX

I have lost 147 pounds. I would really like to get rid of this extra skin because I would like to normal in a bra without this loose skin spilling over. What is the best way to get rid of it? Is is lipo? Is it removed during a breast procedure. I was told it could be fixed with a brachioplasty with axillary extension. I was told by another surgeon that the the axillary extension would make that area really tight for awhile. Thank you!
