Medical diagnosis procedure

How is Axillary Breast Diagnosed?

Doctors use a combination of physical examination and diagnostic tests to confirm axillary breast tissue:

  • Doctor palpates the underarm to check for lumps.
  • Helps differentiate between fat deposits, cysts, or glandular tissue.
  • Used when suspicious growths need to be evaluated.
  • Recommended in complex cases for detailed imaging.
  • Performed if there are signs of abnormal cell growth or suspected malignancy.

Advanced Treatment Options for Axillary Breast

Treatment depends on severity, symptoms, and patient expectations. Some of the advanced options include:

  • Liposuction: A minimally invasive option for small to moderate axillary breast tissue. It reduces bulk without major scarring.
  • Excision Surgery: Surgical removal of the tissue, including glandular and fatty deposits, for complete correction.
  • Combination of Liposuction and Excision: For large or firm tissue that requires both fat removal and excision.
  • Laser-Assisted Surgery: Advanced option that ensures precision and reduced downtime.
  • Scar-Minimizing Techniques: Use of hidden incisions to maintain aesthetics while removing tissue.

Recovery Time

Recovery from axillary breast surgery is generally quick. Most patients resume normal daily activities within 5 to 7 days, while complete healing takes about 3 to 4 weeks. With minimally invasive techniques such as laser-assisted removal, downtime is significantly reduced.

What to Expect: Before, During & After Procedure

Before Surgery: Your doctor will conduct imaging tests, review medical history, and advise on pre-surgery precautions. You may be asked to stop certain medications and fast for a few hours.

During Surgery: The procedure is usually performed under local or general anesthesia. Depending on the technique, the surgeon either removes excess tissue via liposuction or excision. The surgery typically takes 1 to 2 hours.

After Surgery: You may experience mild swelling, bruising, or discomfort for a few days. Compression garments are often advised to help with healing.

Recovery Timeline & Post-Treatment Care

  • Day 1–3: Mild discomfort, swelling, or tightness in the underarm.
  • First Week: Patients can return to routine work with some activity restrictions.
  • 2 Weeks: Bruising and swelling reduce significantly.
  • 3–4 Weeks: Full healing with visible contour improvement.

Post-treatment care:

  • Use prescribed antibiotics and pain relievers.
  • Avoid strenuous activity or heavy lifting for 2 weeks.
  • Wear compression garments as recommended.
  • Keep the incision area clean and dry.
  • Attend follow-up visits for monitoring recovery.

Factors that Affect the Treatment Cost for Axillary Breast

Consultation with a cosmetic or plastic surgeon varies depending on expertise and hospital infrastructure.

Diagnostic tests 

Necessary to rule out infections or bacterial presence before surgery.

Type of infection and medication needed

If recurrent infections exist, additional antibiotics or antifungal medications may be prescribed.

Severity and recurrence of condition

The larger or more complex the tissue growth, the higher the surgical cost. Recurrent axillary breast may need combined procedures, impacting the cost.

  • Surgeon’s expertise and experience.
  • Hospital facilities and operating room charges.

  • Second follow-up after 2 weeks.
  • Third follow-up at 1 month.

  • Ultrasound scans.
  • Mammograms.

How to Prevent Axillary Breast from Coming Back

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is axillary breast dangerous?

Most cases are harmless, but in rare situations, it may develop cysts or tumors. Medical evaluation is essential.

Can axillary breast tissue grow back after surgery?

If not removed completely, regrowth is possible, though modern surgical techniques minimize this risk.

Is axillary breast treatment painful?

Surgery is done under anesthesia, so it is not painful. Some post-surgical discomfort may occur but is manageable with medicines.

Can exercise or weight loss remove axillary breast tissue?

No, since the tissue is glandular in nature, it cannot be eliminated by exercise or diet.

How long do results of axillary breast surgery last?

Results are typically permanent when the tissue is fully removed.
