Impact of Monsplasty in Women Undergoing Abdominoplasty

Overview

Evaluate The aesthetic and function satisfaction outcomes of different monsplasty surgery with or after abdominoplasty

The high incidence of female obesity has resulted in common complaints of a large mons pubis and labia majora (outer labial lips) related to unsightly fat deposits. The mons and labia majora enlarge, protrude, descend, and hang. Even with dramatic weight loss, these areas remain descended and bulky, with excess fat and skin. The affected majora can cause difficulty with sexual intercourse and maintenance of hygiene, and result in discomfort when wearing pants and swimsuits. These unnatural .fat deposits can also severely affect self-esteem The surgical treatment of the enlarged mons pubis and labia majora has been poorly understood and therefore often neglected. Traditionally, the mons has been treated by fat reduction, whether by liposuction or open excision, along with a pubic skin lift. However, skin elevation is usually unsatisfactory, because the mons will descend again upon standing. Many of these unsuccessful lifts present after a simultaneous abdominoplasty. In many ways, the treatment of the mons pubis correlates with the treatment of the hidden penis in the obese or formerly obese male.1-3 Excess suprapubic skin and mons fat removal-along with tacking of the fibrofatty tissue of the pubic skin flap to the rectus fascia-are mandatory to achieve a lasting, successful mons pubis lift.4 Labia majora reduction. Depends on the surgically appropriate removal of fat and/or skin
