What is the Recovery Time for Lipo of the Pubic Mound?

Question

I am strongly considering liposuction of the pubic mound area and wonder what I can expect in terms of recovery time and swelling.

David Hansen, MD · Answer

There is no down time with liposuction of the pubic mound area so you can be back to work the next day.  You will be bruised for 1-2 weeks and swollen for a couple of weeks with the final results seen 4 months later.  No sex for 2 weeks.

Thank you for your question. The recovery time is from 1 to 2 weeks to go back to work.I would suggest to be treated by board certified plastic surgeon with experience in this procedure, to get the best desired results.

Depending on the cause of the full mound several options are possible and it may be that you will achieve a better result with a pubic lift. That having been said, liposuction of the mound requires the use of a gentle compression garment with activity limitations for about 2 weeks time. Pain medications are typically only required for 3-4 days.

David Shafer, MD, FACS · Answer

Recovery time for liposuction is minimal in terms of downtime from your normal activities.  Most patients can have liposuction on a Friday and be back to work on Monday.  However, you should expect to have several weeks of swelling which slowly resolves.  You will see positive changes day by day.  Good luck with your procedure.

The mound at the pubis is both liked and disliked by different patients. Liposuction can be done at the suprapubic area and swelling is expected around the labia for up to three weeks and there can be significant bruising that shows up a day or more later.
