I have these fatty lumps? I think on both of my armpits they make me so self conscious and they will not go away with exercise and I have no money for Lipo
Answer: Armpit fatty lump? What is this and how can I get rid of it? Thank you for the question. Your concerns are not uncommon; many women have concerns about the same areas. Sometimes, liposuction surgery alone will suffice; in many cases, the "excess" skin, adipose tissue, and breast tissue need to be directly exercised in order to achieve the desired improvement in contour. In those cases, liposuction surgery alone may leave patients dissatisfied with the residual (possibly irregular) skin in the infra-axillary areas.In terms of selection of your plastic surgeon, I would suggest starting with the American Society of Plastic Surgery and/or the Aesthetic Society of Plastic Surgery to obtain a list of well experienced board-certified plastic surgeons.Then, I would suggest you visit a few surgeons whose practices concentrate on aesthetic surgery. Ask to SEE lots of examples of their work AND preferably speak/see patients who have had similar procedures done.Be very careful with your decision-making. You will find, while doing your due diligence, that there are many different “specialties” who will offer their services to you; again, I strongly recommend you concentrate on surgeons certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery.Best wishes.

Answer: Armpit fatty lump? What is this and how can I get rid of it? The tissue can be surgically removed. Liposuction will not help with the tissue laxity.Kenneth Hughes, MDLos Angeles, CA

Answer: Axillary breast tissue The tissue is likely excess skin from growth of axillary breast tissue. Liposuction alone will only make worse. You need direct excision of the excess skin, fat and axial breast tissue leaving a scar in the axilla (armpit).

Answer: Significant axillary breast tissue will probably require excision. I don't think liposuction will yield a good result. The axillary breast is generated surplus skin so I think skin excision as well as direct excision will yield a better result.
