1) I developed a FUPA (Fatty Upper Pubic Area) which just won't go away. I can't wear tight pants because of a massive bulge. So what surgerie(s) would I need to correct this and make it flat? What is the average cost for the procedure recommended? 2) I have a little loose skin around my stomach. A centimetre hangs below my abdomen, and half a centimetre hangs above my belly button. All of my muscles are tight (weight training). What is the recommended procedure for this and avgerage cost?
Answer: Liposuction of the Mons can be performed under local anesthesia. Liposuction of the Mons can be performed under local anesthesia. Depending on the magnitude of redundant skin of the abdomen, a more formal operation such as abdominoplasty would be needed.

Answer: VASER Hi Definition Liposuction / Body Contouring with Fat Grafting I suggest you decide what type of liposuction you want. Etching/ contouring / full body shaping or just small amount of fat reduction. The FUPA is a common area that retains a lot of fat, I suggest VASER as it can give you body shaping and full body contouring. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Abdominal Procedure Hello,Without photos or an examination, it would be conjecture. However, it is likely you would benefit from some sort of liposuction/modified abdominoplasty. You should see a few surgeons expert in body contouring who are both certified by the ABPS and members of the ASAPS.Best of luck!

Answer: Mini-tummy tuck and VASER liposuction - FUPA & Abdomen fix? Hello Tranquility,Thanks for your question.If you feel that the mons pubis area is truly fatty then VASER liposuction could improve the bulge. To this, it seems that adding a mini-tummy tuck for removal and tightening of loose lower abdominal wall skin would be beneficial. This also gives a nice mons pubis lift to tighten the upper vaginal area a bit.Of course, an in-person exam is warranted to help you with your decision making.In my practice, the liposuction and mini-tummy tuck could actually be performed in the office using oral sedation and local anesthesia. This can keep the costs down while keeping safety high. A starting cost might be in the range of $4000 for a surgeon's fee. If you choose to go to sleep you have to add a facility fee and anesthesia fee which vary.I hope this was helpful.Good luck,Dr. Shah

Answer: FUPA & Abdomen fix? Thank you for your question. Without a full series of photographs or an in-person examination it is difficult to offer the best treatment recommendations as both your stomach and mons may be candidates for liposuction alone to remove adipose tissue and flatten both areas. If there is too much skin excess or sagging of skin a better operation may be a tummy tuck to help address both the stomach and mons.

Answer: Address a full mons and abdominal area It's a good question. Performing liposuction of the mons is a good way to address fullness in the pubic area. If you have excess skin on your abdomen, then you could consider a tummy tuck, but only an in person examination can determine if he would benefit from a tummy tuck procedure.Seeing a plastic surgeon who performs liposuction and tummy tuck procedures, will help you determine how best to reach your goals.
