After arm liposuction, once the shoulders become sharply defined, many patients begin to notice a new concern — the accessory breast area, or the small bulge in front of the armpit.

(Models like Sana—our aesthetic reference—don’t have this bulge at all.)

To achieve a beautifully balanced and sculpted upper body line, this small detail plays a major role.

The Three Main Causes of Accessory Breast (Front Armpit Bulge)

✔ Fat accumulation

If the bulge is caused by fat, liposuction can effectively remove it. Combining this with upper arm or shoulder liposuction creates a sharper and more refined contour.

✔ True accessory breast tissue (residual mammary gland)

In some cases, residual glandular tissue remains. When this occurs, a small surgical excision is required, as liposuction alone cannot completely remove it.

✔ Skin laxity

When the issue is skin looseness rather than fat, liposuction may worsen the appearance.

At AVAN TOKYO GINZA LIPOSUCTION CLINIC, we address such cases using advanced radiofrequency (RF) technologies such as Morpheus8 Burst and Profound Matrix to tighten and smooth the skin.

Perfect Match with Breast Augmentation

Removing accessory breast tissue also enhances the results of breast augmentation, whether through implants or hybrid fat transfer. It refines the transition from the chest to the arms, making the upper body appear more elegant and feminine.

At AVAN TOKYO GINZA LIPOSUCTION CLINIC, we believe in precision-based beauty — not “liposuction everywhere,” but tailoring each treatment to the underlying cause.

Our goal is simple: to sculpt the arms and upper body into the refined, balanced silhouette seen in Sana-like proportions.
