Accessory axillary breast is an enlargement of breast tissue in the axilla. Accessory breast tissue can occur between the axilla and the groin ( milk line). It can occur during puberty or pregnancy & lactation due to hormonal changes. Axillary breast tissue can occur in 2-6% of women; out of this, 20% of all accessory breast tissue occurs in the axilla. It can be unilateral or Bilateral.
Axillary breast causes not only aesthetic concerns but discomfort due to poor arm posture, pain in the lump, sweating, and stickers, not to mention the limitation of choice in apparel that can be worn.
Your axillary breast tissue can be safely removed with surgery.
- Liposuction is done if the gland has minimal/ moderate enlargement.
- Excision of the gland & excess skin is done for large enlargement of the gland. The excision SCAR is hidden in the armpit fold. Hence you will be able to wear sleeveless shirts without worrying about the scars being visible.
You'll enjoy the following benefits of surgery, elimination of undesirable contours in the underarm area, improved mobility of the arms, less irritation caused by clothing, and improved axillary aesthetics.
