Pubic lift Surgery in Detail
A pubic lift, which is also referred to as a monsplasty or a mons pubis reduction, is a cosmetic surgery procedure which removes extra skin and fat from the mons pubis (the fatty area above the pubic bones). It addresses a pubic area that’s sagging, which may be as a result of ageing, weight loss or childbirth. During the procedure extra fat is taken away, and the muscle underneath is shaped to make the pubic area more compact and firmer.Â
- Reduces excess skin and fatty tissue in the pubic area to improve its appearanceÂ
- Can reduce chafing and discomfort in tight clothing or during physical activityÂ
- Can help you feel less self-conscious about the appearance of your pubic areaÂ
- Can help reduce irritation or discomfort during intercourseÂ
- InfectionÂ
- ScarringÂ
- BleedingÂ
- Numbness or changes in sensationÂ
- AsymmetryÂ
- Poor wound healingÂ
- PainÂ
Â
Before your pubic lift surgery, you’ll be given general anaesthesia, which will ensure that you’re asleep throughout the procedure.Â
Once the anaesthetic has taken effect, your surgeon will make an incision across the mons pubis area. Using a scalpel or surgical tool, they’ll remove any excess tissue or skin, and the muscles underneath will be stitched and tightened to redefine the shape.Â
After closing the incision site, your surgeon will dress and bandage the area to protect the incision. Drains may also be temporarily put in place to prevent fluid build-up and help with healing.Â
Excess skin and fatty tissue on your pubic area can mean that you feel self-conscious in certain clothing. In some cases, patients experience discomfort during intercourse. Opting for mons pubis reduction surgery could help, as it can result in a smaller and smoother pubic area, which can reduce irritation and discomfort and increase your self-confidence.Â
