Mons Pubis Rejuvenation
Home : Genital Procedures : Mons Pubis Rejuvenation
by Peter T. Pacik, MD, FACS
There are many aspects to genital rejuvenation and one of these is mons pubis rejuvenation (a pubic lift of a sagging pubic area). The mons pubis is the hair-bearing area of the pubis. Pubic sag may be associated with weight gain and weight loss, pregnancy and aging. It affects both men and women.
Whenever we do an abdominoplasty, we always evaluate the appearance of the pubis to determine whether or not the pubic area needs to be lifted. At times, there is fat accumulation in the pubic area that can be treated with liposuction. Isolated pubic hang can be treated with a pubic lift.
When a pubic lift is done in conjunction with an abdominoplasty, the abdominoplasty scar crosses the area just above the pubic hair and the pubis itself can be lifted through this approach. At times, the clitoris becomes more exposed, allowing for improved stimulation.
When a pure pubic lift is done, a caesarian type scar just above the pubic hair is used as the approach for lifting the pubis. This scar heals well as a horizontal scar just above the pubis. Surgery can be done under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia and takes about 30 minutes. Little pain is present after the surgery. Bruising and swelling may persist for 7 to 10 days.
A pubic lift results in a more attractive, streamlined pubic area. Eliminating the sagging skin results in rejuvenation of this area.
