If you are a woman, you have probably worried at least once about discomfort in the underarm area or excess sagging skin. In particular, accessory breast tissue is not just an aesthetic issue; it can also cause discomfort during activity. However, if you properly identify the type and cause of accessory breast tissue, it can be improved with the right method.
Depending on the condition of the glandular tissue and fat, there are various improvement options such as glandular tissue removal and liposuction, so it is important to understand your body type and find a place that can help manage it.
Underarm Sagging and the Causes and Improvement Methods for Accessory Breast Tissue
The sagging that appears in the underarm area can mostly be considered accessory breast tissue. In cases where accessory breast tissue is the cause, it is important to carefully distinguish it and find the appropriate improvement method.
Accessory breast tissue is broadly divided into glandular type and fat type, and a mixture of the two is also common. Because the suitable improvement method differs depending on the type, a thorough examination should come first.
Glandular-Type Accessory Breast Tissue, Can Be Improved with a Small Incision
If the accessory breast tissue is glandular type, it is effective to proceed with unnecessary glandular tissue removal.
The glandular tissue removal process is performed through a relatively small incision and is carried out in a way that reduces discomfort while also considering aesthetics. The underarm area in particular has concentrated blood vessels and lymph nodes, so professional expertise is required, making it necessary for a breast surgeon to manage it carefully.
Fat-Type Accessory Breast Tissue, Smoothly Improved with Liposuction
If the accessory breast tissue is fat type, liposuction can be used to remove the fat and create a more natural, smoother line.
Liposuction has the advantage of helping the loose skin adhere for a softer and neater result. Here, depending on each person's condition, the amount and distribution of fat are carefully assessed to suggest the appropriate method.
Combined-Type Accessory Breast Tissue, Managing Both Glandular Tissue and Fat
In cases of combined-type accessory breast tissue, where both glandular and fat types appear at the same time, a combined approach of glandular removal and liposuction is recommended.
Using both methods together allows the skin to adhere more smoothly and can produce a natural result.
If there is severe sagging, skin excision should also be additionally considered, which requires an even more delicate approach.
We Precisely Diagnose the Type with X-Ray Examination
For accessory breast tissue surgery, identifying the type is important. Before surgery, X-ray examination is used to check the condition of the glandular tissue and fat, and to plan a customized improvement method suited to the individual. This process plays a major role in increasing satisfaction with the results.
