MONS PUBIS LIFT SEATTLE & TACOMA | MONSPLASTY SEATTLE & TACOMA
Aging, having children, medical conditions, and many other factors of life leave an impact on our bodies. Most people expect their face and body to change, however, not all of the specific changes that occur are expected. For example, the pubic mound can often begin to collect fat, extra skin, or generally protrude over time. Some people also may naturally have a more prominent mons pubis. This can cause cosmetic problems with the way clothing fits or how a person feels about their appearance. However, it may also cause medical issues such as during urination or sexual performance. Luckily, a surgery known as a monsplasty may aid in alleviating these cosmetic and medical dilemmas. Dr. Craig Jonov at Seattle Plastic Surgery offers the best monsplasty Seattle provides.
OVERVIEW: WHAT IS A MONSPLASTY?
A monsplasty, also called a mons pubis lift, reduces the projection and prominence of the pubic mound. It removes excess skin and fat. The procedure may also tighten the skin in the area and provide a general lift. In general, the procedure is short, low risk, and well tolerated by most patients.
Anatomy
The pubic mound is the triangle-shaped fat pad between the lower stomach and genitals. It is present in both men and women, though it is more visible for women. This means that the mons pubis affects the way a woman can look in tight clothing. A protruding pubic mound can make a woman feel negative or avoid wearing certain types of clothing. Therefore, women more commonly undergo the procedure.
Men can experience mons pubis fullness as well, although it is less common. Men, however, are more likely to have medical problems associated with fullness in the pubic mound.
