Axillary Breast
Curls & Curves Cosmetic Surgery Centre offers personalized consultation and treatment options for axillary breast in Bangalore under the care of Dr. Girish A C. Axillary breast tissue, also known as accessory breast tissue, refers to additional breast tissue that develops in the armpit area. It may become more noticeable during hormonal changes such as puberty, menstruation, or pregnancy.
For some individuals, axillary breast tissue may cause swelling, discomfort, tenderness, skin irritation, or cosmetic concerns. A medical consultation can help determine the cause and identify suitable treatment options.
What Is Axillary Breast?
Axillary breast tissue is extra breast tissue located near the armpit. It can occur on one or both sides and may become more prominent due to hormonal changes or weight fluctuations.
Common concerns associated with axillary breast include:
● Extra tissue or fullness in the armpit area
● Swelling or tenderness during hormonal changes
● Discomfort while wearing fitted clothing
● Skin irritation or friction around the armpit
● Cosmetic concerns about the appearance of the underarm area
Difficulty distinguishing extra breast tissue from other lumps
Axillary Breast Treatment
Treatment depends on the amount and type of tissue present, associated symptoms, and individual needs. After an examination, the surgeon may discuss suitable options, including surgical removal of accessory breast tissue and, in selected cases, liposuction.
Axillary breast treatment may help with:
● Removing excess axillary breast tissue
● Reducing underarm fullness
● Improving the contour of the underarm area
● Relieving discomfort caused by extra tissue
● Addressing irritation associated with friction
● Improving comfort when wearing certain types of clothing
Not every underarm lump is axillary breast tissue. A new, growing, painful, or persistent lump should be medically assessed before considering cosmetic treatment.
