Goodbye Side Boobs!-no More Fat Armpits! AXILLARY LIPOSUCTION

WORTH IT
The magic of Dr Su!
I have been to several plastic surgeons seeking consultation for a breast lift in the past 2 years. Believe it or not-my biggest area of concern was how to treat the bulge of fat which protruded from my "side boob". Of course all women have the luxury to wear a great push up bra to provide cleavage and lift the breasts, but in my case -the better the bra-the better the lift-the more I could not hide my fat armpits!-lol
With each consultation-I asked the surgeon how to handle the axillary fat that I personally felt would hinder the outcome of what I was trying to obtain from a breast lift. A few of the surgeons almost insisted on placing implants- explaining that it would "improve" the axilla area and one doctor actually offered to remove the fat bulge with liposuction during the breast lift under general anesthesia.
I am going to be 52 years old next month and I have NO desire for breast implants-I have had many liposuction procedures at Artistic Lipo and Plastic Surgery-wide awake-and would never consider liposuction of ANY area while I am ASLEEP!-not even a teeny bulge on my armpit!
I asked Dr Su how he felt about this area-and he said "Sure I can take care of that!" well....the side boob is gone! That bulge of fat that could ruin any outfit-that made it so difficult to find a bathing suit to cover it-is gone!
And I have to say for this little area-Dr Su placed my arms and shoulders in several position including holding my arm above my head-flexing-standing me up and even sent me to the mirror a few times. How anyone expects great results while you are under anesthesia completely baffles me!
I had ZERO pain during the procedure and the first day after I was a little uncomfortable with swelling in the armpit. I have to wear a compression vest for 2 weeks and I can't wait to book an appointment to finally have a breast lift!
Thank you Dr Su for EVERY little ounce of fat!!!

What did he charge?

I really wouldn't want to mi$lead you-I had pretty fat armpits-and not everyBODY has the same price. Ashley Vega is the patient consultant at Artlipo-it was actually HER idea for me to ask Dr Su about the axilla area-you can email her your photos ashley@artlipo.com for the armpit or ANY areas you are interested in getting removed. She will email you back with a sketch on your photo of the results you can expect with an exact pricing for YOU!
I CAN tell you that EVERY liposuction procedure I have had with Dr Su was worth every penny! This little bulge has bothered me for years and it sounds stupid but I cant wait to shave my armpits without having to hold up a blob of fat!-LOL Good luck to you! Let me know how you make out!

Amazing!! I have the same issue!!! Sports growing up has left this “thing” there that’s always terrible in tank tops, sundresses, swim suits etc. No exercise has ever made it go away! What did it cost you and what was the down time? Did he do lipo?

It really IS amazing! yes-Dr Su did lipo while I was wide awake-no anesthesia-he just numbed the area-I didn't feel a thing! There really isn't "downtime"-I do have some slight swelling which makes it uncomfortable to lift my arms fully. It is only one week tomorrow since my procedure and I have done my daily routine every day with no problem! I don't even have a bruise! There are no stitches involved -they just glue the incisions closed. One more week wearing the compression vest and I will finally get to wear normal bathing suits and tank tops! Very happy I asked Dr Su to remove this ugly blob!-lol Very easy procedure!
Good luck to YOU!
