Monsplasty, also called a pubic lift, reduces and lifts the mons pubis, the fatty mound over the pubic bone. The area can become full or sagging after weight loss, pregnancy or with age, and it can look more prominent after a tummy tuck.
It flattens the bulge so clothes and swimwear sit better, and it can make hygiene easier when the tissue hangs. It will not change the labia or treat urinary problems, and further weight change can bring fullness back.
What Monsplasty involves
The surgeon marks you standing up, because the mound shifts when you lie down. If the problem is mainly fat, liposuction through two or three tiny cuts may be enough. If there is loose skin, a horizontal wedge of skin and fat is removed along the upper pubic hairline, often on the line of an old caesarean scar. The remaining tissue is lifted and anchored with deep stitches to the firm layer over the abdominal muscles so that it does not slide down again. The skin is closed in layers with dissolving stitches. It is frequently done at the same time as a tummy tuck, using the same incision.
Who is a good candidate for Monsplasty?
It suits adults at a stable weight who are bothered by a bulging or drooping pubic mound.
- You have a persistent pubic bulge despite a stable, healthy weight
- Loose pubic skin hangs after major weight loss or pregnancy
- You are having a tummy tuck and the mons would look out of proportion afterwards
- The fold causes rubbing, moisture or hygiene difficulty
It is usually not the right choice if:
- You are still losing weight or plan a pregnancy soon
- You smoke and cannot stop for at least 4 weeks either side of surgery
- You have an untreated skin infection in the groin fold
- You expect it to change sexual function or the appearance of the labia
الخيارات التقنية
- Liposuction only: For a full mound with firm, elastic skin. Scars are tiny and recovery is quick.
- Excisional pubic lift: For sagging skin. Leaves a low horizontal scar hidden in underwear.
- Combined with abdominoplasty: The mons is thinned and lifted through the tummy tuck incision so the lower abdomen and pubis match.
ماذا يحدث خلال علاجك
Surgery takes 45 to 90 minutes on its own. Liposuction alone can be done under local anaesthetic with sedation; a lift is usually done under general anaesthetic. You wake with a compression garment or firm dressing in place. Most people go home the same day, or stay one night when it is combined with other surgery.
الإعداد لرحلتك
Plan for 5 to 7 days in Istanbul. Your surgeon reviews photographs and your medical history before you book, and you meet in person the day before surgery for examination, marking and consent with a professional interpreter.
- Stop smoking and nicotine at least four weeks before and after surgery; it is the single biggest avoidable cause of wound problems
- Tell the team about every medicine and supplement you take; blood thinners, some herbal products and hormone treatment may need to be paused on your doctor's advice
- Arrange for someone to travel with you or to be reachable, and keep the first days at home free of work and lifting
- Book a changeable return flight; your surgeon confirms when you are fit to fly
التعافي والنتائج
Swelling and bruising are marked for 2 weeks and can spread to the labia or scrotum, which looks alarming but settles. Desk work is possible after about a week. Wear the compression garment for 3 to 4 weeks. Avoid gym work, cycling and sex for 4 to 6 weeks. Final contour shows at 3 to 6 months as swelling goes; the scar fades over a year.
- Back to everyday activity: About 1 week
- When results show: Contour visible at 6 to 12 weeks
- How long they last: Long lasting with stable weight
سياسة السلامة والمخاطر والتنقيح
The groin is a warm, moist area, so wound care matters more here than elsewhere.
- Wound infection or slow healing in the skin fold
- Prolonged swelling of the pubic area and genitals
- Numbness or altered sensation above the pubic bone
- Asymmetry or a pulled, flattened look if too much is removed
- A widened or raised scar
- Fluid collection (seroma) needing drainage
Every written proposal arranged through Clinic-Y states what the clinic covers if a correction is needed. Ask for it before you book, not after.
Cost of Monsplasty in Türkiye
Clinic-Y does not publish a single price for Monsplasty, because the honest figure depends on your case. What moves it:
- Liposuction alone versus skin excision
- Whether it is combined with a tummy tuck or other surgery
- Type of anaesthetic and whether a night in hospital is needed
Send your photographs or reports and you receive written, all-inclusive proposals from suitable teams, side by side. Reviewing your case is free.
الأسئلة المتكررة
Will the scar show?
A lift leaves a horizontal scar low in the pubic hairline, normally covered by underwear. Liposuction leaves only a few small marks.
Does it affect sensation or sex?
The clitoris and labia are not operated on. Temporary numbness of the skin above is common. You should avoid sex for 4 to 6 weeks while it heals.
Can men have it?
Yes. After large weight loss, men can have a fat pad that buries the penis. The same lifting principle applies.
