Monsplasty And Labia Majora Reduction

Over time, the mons pubis and labia majora can become enlarged for a variety of reasons. Mons pubis enlargement is identified by a mound, bulge, or puffiness at the level of the pubic bone, and labia majora enlargement entails excess fat and skin sagging in the tissue that extends down from the mons pubis to the perineum and surrounds the vaginal and urethral orifices. Patients who seek out mons pubis reduction (monsplasty) and/or labia majora reduction are often unhappy with the area’s appearance and/or experience discomfort when wearing tight fitting clothing.

Common causes of mons pubis and labia majora enlargement are aging, weight gain/weight loss, hormonal change, and pregnancy. There also many women who genetically distribute fat to the pelvic region, which can present as early as adolescence. Women who have had c-sections or abdominoplasty may also find that their pelvic region is disproportionately pronounced after the procedures. Monsplasty and labia majora reduction are often performed in tandem, as many patients feel that this keeps the overall area more smooth and proportionate. However, individual needs vary and patients can opt for one procedure or the other based on their desired outcome.

The mons pubis and labia majora reduction procedure involves the excision of excess fat from the pelvic area and lifting/tightening sagging tissue, creating a more youthful and natural appearance. The procedure is done in house or in a surgical setting, and we recommend that patients take 1-2 weeks off of work for healing. For those patients visiting us from out of town (we’re looking at you, Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio!), we typically ask that you plan to stay locally for a few days after surgery in case any follow ups are needed.
