Thank you for the question.

It is not unusual for the pubic area to be an area of concern. This area may be large (prominent) , ptotic (low), or deflated. How to best address your specific concerns will depend on your physical examination and goals. Generally, treatment will involve excision of excess/ ptotic skin plus or minus liposuctioning.

I would suggest that you discuss your concerns/goals directly with your plastic surgeon, in front of the full-length mirror. Working together you will come up with the best course of action.

Best wishes.

Thank you for your question. The area you are referring to is called the mons pubis. Yes, liposuction can be performed in this area and it is frequently done in combination with a tummy tuck or liposuction on another area of the body. However, if there is excessive skin laxity in the area liposuction may not be the right procedure for you; so obtaining a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon is essential for best results. For the hemorrhoids, I would consider talking with your primary care physician first and then perhaps seeking out a colo-rectal surgeon if necessary.

This is great to treat (mons pubis / suprapubic area) with proper liposuction.  sometimes if skin is needed to be removed we will lipo and remove skin at the same time.  kybella, coolsculpting can be used as alternatives with vanquish.  Best, Dr. Emer.

That area where the pubic hair grows is called the mons pubis and yes, you can have liposuction in that area. It can be done in combination with liposuction of other areas or as a stand-alone procedure.  Below is a link to a stand alone mons pubis liposuction.
