What anesthesia is used, how long is recovery? Is this an easy area to treat?
Answer: Lipo of the Mons Pubis Hi! Thanks for your question. The mons is a very straightforward area to treat with liposuction. It can very reasonably done in under 45 minutes with local anesthesia in an office setting. Of course, if you are more comfortable, general anesthesia or sedation could be used instead. Two small (sub-centimeter) incisions would most likely be used and are very well hidden. You could likely return to work in 2 days. Discomfort would be similar to soreness after a workout. I included a video of a patient describing his recovery after much more extensive liposuction. Hope this helps!

Answer: Mons For lipo of the mons since it is such a limited area, this can be done under local anesthesia in the office setting. This helps defray the anesthesia cost.

Answer: Mons Liposuction Options Laura. Liposuction of one, well defined area easily gives you the option of traditional liposuction with just local anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. It is done in the office, and recovery fairly easy and you should be able to return to work within one or two days after the procedure. Even though this is a fairly straightforward procedure, be certain to consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon to greatly increase your chances of the best possible result. Good luck

Answer: What is the process like of getting lipo on mons pubis? In the few women who have isolated mons pubis issues, liposuction can be used. Usually, the mons and the rest of the tummy have fat and/or skin laxity, and procedures such as TT or TT with liposuction may be more appropriate. Pubic liposuction is effective and, if there is a thickness of 2.5 inches, you should notice a very nice improvement. An exam will be necessary to determine if liposuction alone will be sufficient. Mons liposuction is a quick procedure that yields nice results in the appropriate patient. Bruising and swelling can last up to 6 weeks but will be dependent upon amount liposuctioned; there can be quite a bit swelling early due to the dependent nature of the pubic area.
