Fatty Underarm Breast Tissue

I have fatty tissue under my armpits where you place deodorant. What is that called, what is the proedure for removal, and how expensive is the procedure?

You have axillary breast tissue.  This can be treated with either liposuction or direct excision depend on the extent of the problem and the consistency of the tissue.  Costs for such a procedure can only be determined at the time of a consultation with a local plastic surgeon.
