Axilla Bulge Correction

Best Axillary Breast Tissue Removal in Hyderabad, India

An axillary tail of the spencer or axillary tail of the breast extends into the axilla (under the arm) from the breast tissue. Women with this condition shy away from wearing sleeveless clothing due to bags under their axilla which is a cosmetically disfiguring condition. During menstruation, pain, and tenderness, especially under the axilla, are common symptoms of this condition. It can range from a mild bulge to a protruding bag.  

When mild to moderate protrusions occur, the only treatment option is surgical liposuction.

Where is the Axillary tail Located?

The axilla is where it is most commonly found. There are no visible signs in the breast, but there may be a lump near/under the armpits (axilla). The symptoms may be located anywhere around the milk line, including the face, posterior neckline, chest, and middle of the back region, as well as the lateral thighs.  

How It Develops

Some people develop underarm lumps after gaining weight, but the amount of excess weight is distributed differently for each individual. In some women, extra inches get collected under their arms, others on their thighs, and some under their waists. It is possible to reduce some of the accumulated fat with an effective diet and exercise program, but it may not necessarily reduce all unwanted curves. There is also the possibility that an underarm bulge is caused by excess breast tissue rather than fat. A lump under the arm may contain this tissue that may have been present since birth or may have enlarged due to puberty or pregnancy. It is possible to reduce the size of the armpit bumps by losing a few pounds, but this may not be enough to completely eliminate them.  

Causes of Axilla Bulge Correction

Mothers are commonly affected and pass it on to their daughters. It is therefore not uncommon to see axillary breast tissue in young school girls. It can also occur during pregnancy or lactation when weight is gained or hormonal changes occur. An axillary breast may become prominent during pregnancy if it is present.  

Treatment for Axillary Bulge Correction

The correction of an axillary bulge, often caused by excess breast tissue in the armpit area, can be addressed through various treatment options. Here are some common approaches:

• Axillary Breast Tissue Removal Surgery: This is a surgical procedure in which the excess breast tissue in the axilla is removed. The surgery aims to eliminate the bulge, providing relief from pain and improving the overall contour of the underarm area.
• Liposuction: In cases where the bulge is primarily due to excess fat, liposuction may be considered. Liposuction involves the removal of fat deposits through a minimally invasive procedure, resulting in a smoother underarm contour.
• Non-surgical Treatments: Some non-surgical options may be explored, although their effectiveness may vary. These can include laser therapy or other non-invasive procedures aimed at reducing fat or tightening the skin.
• Physical Therapy: In some cases, physical therapy exercises may help improve the posture and muscle tone in the affected area, reducing the prominence of the axillary bulge.
• Lifestyle Changes: Lifestyle modifications, such as weight management and regular exercise, may contribute to reducing excess fat and improving the overall appearance of the underarm area.

Axillary Bulge Correction Surgery Advantages

The tissue in your axilla can be safely removed during surgery. For small corrections, liposuction can be used, or excision (removal of tissue by incision) for more extensive corrections. Surgical procedures for axillary tail removal have the following advantages:

• The underarm area is eliminated from undesirable contours.

• There is increased mobility in the arms.

• Clothes are less irritating.

Procedure for Axillary Bulge Correction

A liposuction procedure is a minimally invasive, minor surgery. A local anaesthetic or general anaesthetic is administered. It is necessary to make a small incision (approximately 3mm) in the armpit area. A tumescent liquid is injected into the incision before it is closed. An incision is made and a thin metal tube is inserted through it (a cannula). In the region of the axilla, the movement of the cannula breaks the fat's interlocking bonds and converts it to a liquid state. The liquefied fat is then sucked out. Next, the incision is closed and the accessory breast tissue is removed.

The post-surgery experience

Approximately one month after surgery the skin in the axilla may be loose. The skin contracts subsequently and the individual is left with a very natural appearance. Your shoulders & arms are now waxed and polished, so you're free to wear sleeveless outfits.   Liposuction involves only one extremely small incision and is minimally invasive. The incisions are also made in the armpit region, at a place that will normally be hidden by brassieres or not visible to the naked eye. Scarring gradually fades as time goes by as well.
