Mons Pubis Lift or Reduction
Leesburg - Northern Virginia - Loudoun

- Reduce the visibility of any existing fat bulge
- Tighten the visibility of loose or sagging skin
The mons pubis is the sensual area overlying the pubic bone and above the vagina. Weight gain and pregnancy can often cause the fat in the area to enlarge and sag.
Cosmetic improvement of the mons pubis concentrates on reducing the visibility of any existing fat bulge while tightening or lifting any loose or sagging skin.
Mons pubis cosmetic enhancement is quickly becoming one of the fastest growing cosmetic surgery procedures. The accumulation of fat over the mons pubis can be bothersome if it is large enough to be seen through clothing, interferes with sexual confidence, or becomes large enough to cause the tissue in the area to stretch and sag.
Small fat bulges can be addressed non-surgically with Cool-sculpting or surgically by minor office-based liposuction. Larger fat bulges may require a combination of liposuction and a mons pubis lift.

The cosmetic options to address the mons pubis will depend on how much fat has accumulated over the the area and how loose and sagging is the tissue.
Small fat bulge
Small fat bulges can be addressed by Coolsculpting. Coolsculpting is a nonsurgical procedure that is performed in the office. The procedure takes about 30 minutes, negligible discomfort, and no down-time.
Small to moderate fat bulges
Small to moderate fat bulges may also be addressed by Coolsculpting. Liposuction, however, can often be more effective. The procedure is performed in either the office under local anesthesia and valium
Large fat bulges or sagging tissue
Large fat bulges or sagging tissue will require a surgical mons lift. The procedure is performed in either the office under local anesthesia and valium or at the surgery center under general anesthesia. Liposuction of the fat is first performed. Following removal of the fat, a crescent of skin and fat is removed just above the mons but below the underwear crease. The loose tissue is then lifted to a more youthful position. The skin is closed using absorbable sutures.
