Liposuction of Mons Pubic area

Fat removal from the pubic area is frequently requested in my private practice. Liposuction of the pubis area is very effective in removing this fat which is usually resistant to diet and exercise. I routinely perform this procedure in my Atlanta practice.

Lipo the mons

Nanoush, The area that you are referring to is known as the mons pubis and can readily be contoured with liposuction. I sometimes include liposuction in this area when performing tummy tuck surgery, but it can certainly be performed as an isolated procedure. Good luck!

Liposuction of the mons pubis

I perform liposuction of the mons pubis fairly frequently. It is an excellent adjunct to other body contour procedures. The area will stay swollen a bit longer than some other areas treated.

Pubic area liposuction a good option

Liposuction is the preferred treatment for localized subcutaneous fat that does not respond to diet or exercise. It works well in most areas of the body. The pubic area is normally evaluated as part of abdominal contouring (liposuction or tummy tuck), but can be done selectively. Your surgeon may focus on whether you have looseness in addition to excess fat during an examination. Liposuction alone would not tighten looseness in that area, which often occurs with major weight loss. If... more

Yes, Liposuction can be done on the pubic area

Disproportionate fullness and fatty accumulation can occur in the pubic area resulting in an unpleasing prominence. Liposculpture of this area can be done to achieve a more pleasing contour using a combination of technques including Smart Lipo, a new method of liposuction that uses laser light to liquifey fat and tighten the surrounding skin. This technique involves less side effects and downtime than traditional liposuction and is particularly good for small areas of fat deposits.... more

Pubic area liposuction is very common and straightforward

What you are describing is very common and straightforward, and will usually result in very nice results. It can be done traditionally, or even be combined with ultrasound to help break up some of the tougher areas of fat in this area, but either way works well.

Liposuction in the pubic area is common

The fatty patch you have is very common and the best way to decrease the size is with liposuction. Many times this done at the time of a tummy tuck or other liposuction. The area may get loose and you will notice some skin laxity but his is generally better than the fullness of the fat patch. Liposuction in this area will give you some bruising and swelling into the labia that will require some support and compression but should go away. Best Wishes Dr. Peterson

Liposuction of the pubic area is done routinely with abdominal liposuction

After significant weight loss, both men and women experience residual fat "rolls" in the pubic area. There's also excess sagging and excess skin associated with this. Liposuction can improve this, but to rejuvenate the pubic area one would need to do some skin excision to tighten and elevate this area for a more youthful appearance. I often find that there's a suprapubic bulge, but the labia majora are atrophic and would benefit from fat grafts at the same time.

Lipo with a lift

I do liposuction in this area and if there is extra skin I will do an excision of the skin and do a Mon's lift. Patients love the results and it works very well.

It is a great solution to an undesired fullness of the pubis

When ever I perform liposuction on the abdomen with or with out a tummy tuck, I always evaluate the pubis to determine if there is a fullness which would be improved with simultaneous liposuction of the pubis. This will give a much better contour of the entire area. It is easy safe and effective. I agree that there will be more swelling and bruising but this will resolve as does the other bruising and swelling.

Liposuction of pubic area

It is often done as part of post bariatric plastic surgical reconstructions when patients still have pubic adiposity. It can cause a lot of swelling and black and blueness which eventually resolves.
