Discover new body feelings thanks to a mons pubis reduction surgery

The rounded eminence above the female vulvar lips is referred to as mons pubis or mons veneris. The size may vary from woman to woman. Hormonal changes, menopause, and weight gain may cause a more pronounced shaping of the pubic mound. Many women find this condition very uncomfortable.

A mons pubis reduction can help the women who suffer from it.

In a mons pubis reduction surgery, Dr. Colette Carmen Camenisch aspirates the excess fat tissues from the pubic mound. A liposuction of the intimate area, as the procedure is referred to in the specialist jargon, is not different from a liposuction of the abdomen, the thighs ("saddlebags") or the hips.

Many women have isolated fat deposits. This excess fat tissues may be relatively easily aspirated, provided that the skin in the treated region is elastic enough.

Mons pubis reduction - that's how it's done

For this procedure, Dr. Colette Carmen Camenisch injects a special saline solution with lidocaine and adrenaline in the mons pubis. Subsequently, the specialist physician applies a special device that first achieves a negative pressure, and then aspirates the fat.

For optimal results, in certain cases, in addition to the mons pubis reduction, an abdominal liposuction should also be performed.
