Monsplasty (Pubic Lift)

Board-certified Miami plastic surgeon Dr. Tal T. Roudner offers monsplasty surgery for patients who are interested in contouring their lower abdomen and upper pubic area. Patients who are bothered by excess fat or extra skin in this area often find that diet and exercise do not deliver improvements. However, monsplasty, or pubic lift surgery, can give a firmer, flatter appearance and help restore self-esteem.

What is Pubic Lift Surgery? (Monsplasty)

Monsplasty is a cosmetic procedure to remove excess skin and fat in the mons pubis region, the area above the pubic bone. This area can become enlarged due to factors such as weight gain and weight loss, aging, pregnancy, or genetics. Monsplasty aims to sculpt and contour the mons pubis, providing a smoother, flatter, and more aesthetically pleasing appearance. This procedure is often performed in conjunction with a tummy tuck surgery, liposuction, or labiaplasty, or as part of a mommy makeover.

Benefits of Monsplasty

While each patient’s experience is unique, monsplasty offers many potential benefits:¹

• Enhanced aesthetic appearance
