What surgeon should I see for axillary fat removal?

Thank you for your question regarding who you should see for your axillary fat removal. Without photos, it's hard to give you a proper evaluation. However, I've performed over a thousand arm lifts and reductions and some of those are combined with vertical torsoplasties to get rid of the "side boob" as my patients call it. There are different arm lift incisions that can be made. It really depends on where your excess skin and fat is. If the excess skin is only in your armpit area, you might be able to get away with a crescent arm lift where an incision is made under your armpit in the shape of a crescent moon, and the excess skin of that area is excised. The traditional brachioplasty is an incision from the armpit, down to the elbow. The incision is placed where the inseam of a long sleeve shirt would be. This hides the incision very well. I'll attach my website below where you can see many pictures of my arm lift results. Thank you and best of luck finding a plastic surgeon for your axillary fat removal.

It is possible to remove the fat from that area. I’ve personally performed those types of surgeries with really satisfying results.
