Pubic Reduction (Monsplasty) | Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery

When the pubic mound is particularly prominent due to fat depots in the subcutaneous tissue, many women feel troubled: especially when wearing tight clothes, other people’s looks are drawn towards the intimate zone in a way that’s too much for comfort. A harmonious silhouette may be achieved by means of a liposuction at the pubic mound. A pubic reduction can be performed at the Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery even on an outpatient basis.

It is our particular desire that our patients feel good and well cared for by us. Before the treatment, we will conduct a personal consultation in a confidential atmosphere. There, you will be able to ask all questions and discuss all issues and concerns you may have with the treating doctor.

During the pubic reduction, the region will first be anaesthetised locally. The pubic reduction will take about one hour. The local anaesthetic is injected together with a solution which facilitates the fat cell removal. Through a tiny incision, a hollow needle (cannula) will then be inserted and the fat will be extracted until the desired shape of the pubic mound is achieved. In some cases, it may be recommendable to do a slight tightening of the treated area in the intimate zone directly afterwards.

In order to support a particularly even wound healing of the inner wound surfaces, you will have to wear a special girdle for two to three weeks after the pubic reduction. Patients will receive this directly after the operation from us. After the liposuction, the skin may temporarily feel a bit numb. Also, patients often tell us about a feeling like sore muscles; any stronger pain is rare.

We at the Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery use self-dissolving sutures for the stitches (which are very small anyway), so that they will have dissolved by themselves after about three weeks. Already two days after the operation, you may take a shower; but please be sure to use only lukewarm water for the first week, together with a pH-neutral body wash. Starting on day four, sitting baths with camomile support the wound healing process after the pubic reduction – full baths are only allowed after two weeks.

You should refrain from having sex for several weeks. Sports and exercise should not be started again any earlier than four weeks after the operation, and you start only very gently at first. You should not consume any alcohol or nicotine, if possible, since these substances also have a negative impact on the healing process. We’ll be happy to provide more information about our treatments in a personal consultation. Please feel free to contact the team of Nürnberger Klinik for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery about this.
