What Is a Pubic Lift?
A pubic lift, also known as monsplasty, is a surgical procedure designed to reduce and tighten the fatty, sagging area of the pubic mound located above your genitals.
Over time, factors like aging, genetics, significant weight fluctuations, or pregnancy can cause this area to appear bulky or droopy, even under your clothes. A pubic lift removes excess skin and fat, elevating the mons pubis and giving you a smoother, firmer, more youthful contour. It is often combined with other procedures, such as liposuction of the abdomen and/or thighs or a thigh lift, to provide patients with a comprehensively refreshed contour.
Benefits of Pubic Lift Surgery
A pubic lift offers both aesthetic and functional benefits, improving your comfort, confidence, and how your clothes fit. Advantages of a pubic lift include:
Improved Contour
Lifting and tightening your pubic area creates a smoother, more defined transition between your abdominal and genital areas.
Improved Comfort
Reducing excess tissue in the pubic area can minimize moisture buildup and make hygiene easier. It can also eliminate irritation from clothing by decreasing excess bulk.
Improved Confidence
A pubic lift makes it easier and more comfortable to wear fitted pants, swimsuits, and lingerie without unsightly bulging, increasing your confidence both in and out of your clothes.
Comprehensive Rejuvenation
Although it can be performed as a standalone procedure, a pubic lift is often combined with other body contouring surgeries, such as
Is a Pubic Lift Right for Me?
You may be a good candidate for pubic lift surgery if you are a non-smoker in good overall health who is bothered by sagging or fullness in your pubic area that won’t respond to diet or exercise.
Ideal candidates for a pubic lift are women and men who are at a stable weight and want to improve their comfort, appearance, and confidence by reducing excess bulk and lifting and firming their pubic area.
The best way to discover if you’re a good candidate for a pubic lift is to schedule a consultation with Dr. Gabriel Chiu. During your consultation, he will examine the mons pubis area, discuss your concerns and goals, and determine if you’re a good candidate for pubic lift surgery.
Overview of a Typical Pubic Lift Procedure
Pubic lift surgery is typically performed using general anesthesia or local anesthesia with sedation. Dr. Chiu begins by making a discreet horizontal incision just above your pubic area, usually low enough to be easily hidden by underwear or swimwear.
Through this incision, he carefully removes excess skin and fat, tightening and elevating the remaining tissue to a more youthful (yet still natural) position. In some cases, liposuction may be used to further smooth and refine the contours of the area. Once Dr. Chiu is satisfied with the contour of your mons pubis, he closes the incision with sutures and applies sterile dressings.
Combination procedures will also be performed by Dr. Chiu at this time. Patients frequently choose to combine their pubic lift with liposuction, a thigh lift, or a tummy tuck.
Recovering From Your Pubic Lift
A pubic lift is an outpatient procedure, meaning that most patients can return home the same day as their surgery.
During the initial week of your recovery, you will experience mild swelling, bruising, or discomfort. These are expected side effects and can be easily managed with prescribed or over-the-counter pain medication. You may be required to wear a compression garment as you recover to help minimize swelling and support and shape the area as it heals.
Light activities and a return to desk work can usually be resumed within a week or two after your pubic lift; however, strenuous exercise must be avoided for four to six weeks. Dr. Chiu will provide you with personalized aftercare instructions, including how to care for your incisions, bathing, and activity restrictions.
Keeping the incision area clean and avoiding tight clothing during your pubic lift recovery will help ensure a smooth healing process and optimal results.
What Can I Expect From My Pubic Lift Results?
Once swelling begins to subside, you will begin to see a flatter, firmer, and more sculpted pubic area, including improved definition between your abdomen and genitals. The results of your pubic lift are long-lasting, as long as you maintain a stable weight.
While the incision scar from a pubic lift is easily hidden beneath underwear or swimwear, it is also thin and will fade over time. Once you are completely healed from your pubic lift, you can enjoy a boost in confidence, more comfort when wearing fitted clothing, and improved self-esteem in intimate moments.
