How can I reduce my mons pubis area?

Liposuction of the mons pubis does really well and is easy to undergo under local anesthesia for roughly $2500 +$750 op room= $3250.  You can drive yourself to and from the procedure and go to work in 1 day. Sincerely, David Hansen,MD

The pubis lift is a procedure that addresses both extra bulk from too much fat as well as redundant skin and underlying soft tissue. The procedure is tailored to your needs. Always see a board certified plastic surgeon for this procedure. The cost depends on your location, where the surgery is performed, length of surgery, experience of your doctor and other factors.

To have that question personally answered for yourself you would need to be examined by a board-certified plastic surgeon. Women who need mons pubis reduction are treated either with surgery or liposuction.  Women having a tummy tuck may have descent and or enlargement of the mons pubis. This is corrected by lifting and reducing the prominence of the mons during the tummy tuck, either by liposuction, suspension, a combination of the two, or in more difficult situations, by removing a wedge of excess tissue under the mons.  For a patient who does not need a tummy tuck and just wants flattening of the mons, liposuction is a good option. It can be done in the office operating room under local, tumescent anesthesia, and is relatively inexpensive.

Liposuction is usually all that is required if there is no loose skin.  Without a photo it is impossible to tell for sure though.  Your best bet for the most accurate advise is an in person consultation.  Many plastic surgeons, including myself, offer complimentatry consultations.  Be sure and bring a parent or gaurdian with you if you are still under 18 at the time of your consultation. 

Liposuction is usually all that is required.  This may cost $3000 or so.Liposuction results are highly surgeon dependent. Find a board certified plastic
surgeon who performs hundreds of liposuction and liposuction revision
procedures each year. Then look at the plastic surgeon's website before
and after photo galleries to get a sense of who can deliver the
results. Kenneth Hughes, MD Los Angeles, CA

Mons pubis reduction can usually be addressed well with liposuction. The cost is between 3000-3500$. It can usually be done under local anesthesia, but you should have someone drive you to your appointment. Most importantly. Get a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon before having any surgery, Good Luck.

Thank you for the question. Much of which procedure will achieve your goals will depend on your physical examination. Best place to start would be with in person consultation with board-certified plastic surgeons. Options, depending on your physical examination, will likely be liposuction surgery and/or excision of “redundant” skin. The size, position, shape, of the mons pubis will need to be taken into consideration. Factors such as skin elasticity will also need to be considered. Again, best to seek consultation with board-certified plastic surgeons who can demonstrate significant experience helping patients in your situation. Best wishes.

Thank you for the question.Liposuction can be done and remove all the fat cells that make it look packed. The price does vary from patient to patient but it can be between 3000-3500.Dr. Campos

Dear Jen821,Given your age and your description of your fitness level I suspect liposuction alone would be all that you would need.  The ballpark cost of a small area of liposuction including surgeons fee, anesthesia, and operating room cost would be about 3-5K.  This price could be lowered if the procedure were to be performed under local anesthesia.  If you have excess skin in the mons area this can also be corrected through a  tightening procedure.  This could be done alone or in combination with a liposuction procedure.  You will need to wear a compression garment for about 2-4 weeks and you should expect some swelling and bruising in that area as well as in the labia area.All the best,Dr. Remus Repta

Appearance of the mons pubis (area just above the genitals) is important to both men and women. Contouring in this region in the younger patient is most always done with just liposuction. When only the mons is involved the operation can often be done in the office and often with just a local anesthesia with oral sedation (pills to relax you). This helps keep down the cost  by not having a hospital or anesthesia fee. Older women or those who have had children will most often need the skin tightened either through a full or mini tummy tuck as well as liposuction when necessary. It is best to find a certified plastic surgeon in your area, have a consultation and discuss fees with them.
