Introduction: Understanding Monsplasty

Monsplasty, also known as pubic lift surgery, is a cosmetic procedure designed to address excess fat or skin in the mons pubis area—the fatty region above the pubic bone. This area can become prominent due to aging, weight gain, pregnancy, or significant weight loss, often leading to discomfort, self-consciousness, or difficulty wearing certain clothing. Monsplasty aims to restore a more contoured and proportionate appearance, boosting confidence and improving overall comfort.

At Vivid Clinic in Istanbul, we offer monsplasty as part of our comprehensive body contouring services. Our expert surgeons work closely with you to create personalized solutions tailored to your goals.


What is Monsplasty?

Monsplasty is a surgical procedure that reduces and reshapes the mons pubis area. It typically involves:

  • Liposuction: To remove excess fat deposits.
  • Skin Tightening: To address loose or sagging skin.
  • Tissue Reshaping: To create a smooth and proportionate contour.

Who is a Good Candidate for Monsplasty?

You may be a suitable candidate for monsplasty if you:

  • Experience discomfort or self-consciousness due to a prominent mons pubis.
  • Have excess fat or sagging skin in the pubic region due to weight fluctuations or aging.
  • Are in good overall health and maintain a stable weight.
  • Have realistic expectations about the procedure’s results.

A consultation with our skilled surgeons at Vivid Clinic can help determine if monsplasty is right for you.


Benefits of Monsplasty

Monsplasty offers several physical and emotional benefits, including:

  • Improved Contour: Creates a smoother, flatter pubic area.
  • Enhanced Comfort: Reduces irritation or discomfort caused by excess tissue.
  • Clothing Fit: Allows for easier wear of tight clothing, swimsuits, or lingerie.
  • Boosted Confidence: Improves self-esteem by addressing aesthetic concerns.
  • Customized Results: Tailored to your body type and personal goals.

How is Monsplasty Performed?

1. Consultation

During your initial consultation, your surgeon will evaluate your anatomy, discuss your goals, and create a customized surgical plan.

2. Anesthesia

The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia with sedation or general anesthesia, ensuring your comfort.

3. Liposuction or Excision

Depending on your needs, the surgeon will remove excess fat using liposuction or excise sagging skin and tissue.

4. Skin Tightening

If necessary, the surgeon will tighten the remaining skin to create a smooth and contoured appearance.

5. Closing Incisions

The incisions are carefully closed with sutures, and a compression garment may be applied to support healing.
