Was wondering if it is possible to have the fatty deposit, that I am very self conscious of, lipoed from my armpit. It has been ultrasounded and is definitely fat. Also if it can be done about how much would it cost as I am not financially well off.
Answer: Liposuction of axillary breast tissue. Most the time the area in question will respond to liposuction. If it is substantially glandular it might require surgical excision.

Answer: Liposuction of Armpit Fat This area responds very well to liposuction if it is done properly. The cost will vary on the person expertise. I suggest only going to an expert and not compromising your care for cost or distance. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Fatty Deposit Anterior To My Armpit - What Is It & How Do I Get Rid Of It? This fatty deposit on the anterior aspect of your armpit is a remnant of the Tail of Spence. This was a portion of your breast at puberty, and normally it degenerates into fat by the time you are 15 years old. This area in adults contains almost all fat, but there is occasionally some residual breast tissue.Liposuction of this area normally corrects this problem, especially since you had an ultrasound and only fat was present. The large size of this area on your anterior axillary line may require two liposuctions to have it shrink up completely. In my practice, I suction about 200 of these areas per year as this is a normal part of my breast augmentation, and I have never had to go back in and remove gland but this is a possibility.

Answer: Arm Pit Liposuction First, let me say that this area is very commonly asked about. Women hate the appearance of fullness above the breast in the axilla - so you are not alone.Suctioning here is a little tricky because we need to remove the bulge and yet leave no signs that anything happened. Due to the contour and skin elasticity in the area, getting it right can be difficult. Make sure you see someone who has done it before.Good Luck!

Answer: Wondering about Liposuction of the armpit Thank you for the question and picture.It would behoove you to be examined in person by a well experienced board-certified plastic surgeon. This examination will be critical in determining the best course of action.For example, if the area consists of “fat” then liposuction may be an option depending on the skin elasticity overlying the area). If the skin elasticity is not sufficient then direct excision of skin and underlying adipose tissue may be necessary.If the area of concern, on the other hand, consists of breast ( axillary tail of Spence) that liposuction will likely not be effective and direct excision of the breast tissue and overlying skin will likely be necessary to achieve the desired results.Again, examination by well experienced board-certified plastic surgeon may be very helpful.I hope this helps.
