Can I get fat removed from my side boob and upper back area? (Photo)

April 16, 2018
Asked By:nadieramcmillan in Philadelphia, PA

I had a breast reduction almost two years ago and I have a excessive amount of fat around my side boob area and back that bulges no matter what I wear. I can pinch the fat and it makes wearing any type of shirt or dress hard. When I lift my arms I can see the fat bulge out past my rib area. It is also still numb to the touch which I feel like numbness should have gone away by now.
