Among people who are worried about accessory breast tissue, many look for a simple solution and think that it can be improved with accessory breast injections alone. However, accessory breast tissue is not just a simple lump of fat; it may include glandular tissue, so it can be difficult to achieve the desired result with an injection procedure alone.
In the case of fatty accessory breast tissue, the size may be reduced to some extent through injections. But if glandular tissue is included, it is unlikely to be completely removed by injection and may remain. Also, if the skin has poor elasticity, reducing fat with injections alone can cause the side effect of sagging skin. Therefore, it is important to carefully diagnose the type of accessory breast tissue and then choose the appropriate method.
Improvement may be difficult with accessory breast injections alone

When wearing clothes, the line around the underarm often becomes a concern. At this time, many people believe that a general accessory breast injection can remove the fat. However, if the bulge above the bra line is accessory breast tissue, a different approach from simple fat accumulation may be needed.
Accessory breast tissue refers to breast tissue that has extended around the armpit, and it is divided into cases that include glandular tissue and those in the form of accumulated fat; each requires different management.
Improvement methods vary depending on the type of accessory breast tissue

Accessory breast tissue can largely be divided into glandular type, fatty type, and mixed type. The glandular type is when breast tissue remains in the armpit, and it can be improved through gland removal. The fatty type is caused by the accumulation of unnecessary fat, and there is a method of refining the line through liposuction.
If both are present at the same time in a mixed type, combining gland removal and liposuction may create a more natural result. If only liposuction is performed, the skin may sag, so a process that brings the skin and tissue into close contact is necessary.
This is what is done when severe sagging is present

Even if there is accessory breast tissue, if the skin is firm, natural adhesion can occur after surgery. But if sagging is severe, skin removal may also be necessary. In particular, if glandular tissue and fat are present together and elasticity is lacking, it may be difficult to achieve the desired result with liposuction alone.
Therefore, it is important to provide customized care according to each person’s skin condition and the type of accessory breast tissue.
Precise diagnosis through X-ray examination is necessary

Careful diagnosis before surgery is essential for improving accessory breast tissue. Even if it appears externally to be accessory breast tissue, there are cases where it is simply fat accumulation or where it needs to be distinguished from other tissues.
In particular, if the accessory breast tissue includes glandular tissue, it is necessary to check the internal tissue through an X-ray examination. Through this, a detailed plan can be made so that unnecessary glandular tissue is not left behind.
Why armpit surgery should be considered carefully

The armpit is an area densely packed with blood vessels and lymph nodes, so a careful approach is needed during surgery. Rather than simply performing liposuction, the process of balancing the surrounding tissues is important, so getting help from an experienced breast surgery specialist can be a stable option.

Accessory breast tissue in the armpit is not just an unsightly bulge of flesh; it can also include glandular tissue, so it is important to improve it naturally through proper diagnosis and customized care. At our clinic, we suggest methods that take each person’s condition into account based on extensive know-how.
If you are worried about accessory breast tissue, it is a good idea to find the method that suits you best through a professional consultation.
