Ever since getting pregnant with my first son in 2009 I have had axilla breast tissue. How much does it cost for removal, I would love if my insurance would cover it. I recently had a breast reduction and I'm super happy with my results from a H to a large C cup. So will insurance cover or will I have to pay for the removal of these extra breast that's are hedieous !!!??!!

If the erectile muscle in the nipple is still functioning, the likelihood that sensation returns is very good - it can take several months though, so be patient.

Can you please provide us a photograph of your current breasts and torso; the appropriate size for you is dependent on your shoulder width, your torso girth, etc. When your breasts are made smaller, the optimum size for your breasts are a size that makes you look proportionate.

If you have undergone the appropriate screening and diagnostic tests, and you have been told the area is benign, then there is no reason why you could not undergo the breast reduction.  The area may even come out with the breast tissue removed.  You should be safe to proceed.  I hope this helps.
