Safety First.
Jan 20, 2023
It is not safe to have liposuction in the armpit area, because there are a lot of nerves blood vessels. Which is the brachial plexus which innervates your upper extremity I agree with your assessment of the hard lumps in your arms. You can have liposuction of the other ares other than the arm pit.
