In the summer, as temperatures rise, many women choose sleeveless clothing.

However, some feel self-conscious due to excess fat around the chest,

making it hard to wear sleeveless outfits confidently.

This issue might be mistaken for underarm fat, leading to dieting attempts.

If the fat persists or lumps remain despite weight loss,

it might actually be accessory breasts.

Today, I will discuss accessory breasts,

often confused with underarm fat.

🔔What is an accessory breast?

Accessory breasts refer to the presence of breast tissue in areas other than the chest, often found near the armpits.

Accessory breasts develop when mammary tissue proliferates and can sometimes be associated with pain and secretion.

Removal may be necessary not only for cosmetic reasons but also for health and hygiene purposes.

✨Reasons why accessory breasts are formed

Accessory breasts can develop from congenital and acquired causes.

Congenitally, too much female hormone secretion leads to extra breast tissue in the armpits.

This happens due to hormone overproduction during development.

Acquired cases often occur during adolescence with physical growth and weight gain, as well as changes during pregnancy.

🎁Symptoms of accessory breast

Symptoms of accessory breasts include distinct lumps or abnormal swelling of tissue in the armpit area, which differs from surrounding tissues.

Additionally, discomfort or pain may occur in the region of the accessory breasts. Since accessory breasts contain mammary tissue, pain can arise during pregnancy or breastfeeding when the mammary tissue becomes hardened. Hormonal fluctuations during the menstrual cycle can also cause discomfort, with some experiencing severe pain that makes arm movement difficult or lifting objects challenging, especially during menstruation.

The method of accessory breast removal surgery involves making a minimal incision within 1cm near the inner part of the armpit, then performing liposuction and excision of the accessory breast tissue and fat.

There are variations in the size and nature of accessory breasts, so it’s recommended not to neglect them and instead seek consultation at a hospital if you are concerned about undergoing surgery for accessory breasts!
