Monsplasty
Conveniently located to serve Houston and Sugar Land
If fullness in your lower abdomen makes clothing hard to wear, you’re not alone. Changes in the mons pubis area, such as those caused by weight shifts or past pregnancies, are common. A monsplasty can smooth this area, allowing your clothing to fit better and your silhouette to look more balanced. Many people in Houston and Sugar Land opt for this procedure to achieve a more comfortable, streamlined shape.
What Is Monsplasty?
Monsplasty is a procedure that removes excess fatty tissue or redundant skin from the mons pubis, which can otherwise cause a bulge. Fatty tissue removal for this procedure is typically conducted with liposuction. The type of anesthesia used is oral sedation with local or general anesthesia. Recovery is approximately 2-4 weeks.
How does it improve the mons pubis area?
Mons pubis fullness can result from genetics, hormonal fluctuations, past pregnancies, or weight fluctuations. A monsplasty reshapes this area by reducing unwanted fat and tightening loose skin. This helps your lower abdomen and pubic area blend more smoothly, allowing clothing to rest comfortably and the area to appear naturally contoured.
What monsplasty treats: Common concerns this procedure can improve
Monsplasty can address:
- Bulging from excess fat
- Sagging tissue from weight loss or aging
- Skin folds that cause discomfort
- An imbalance between the abdomen and pubic area
- Changes that remain after pregnancy or previous surgeries

Am I a Good Candidate for Monsplasty?
Women who want their persistently full mons pubis to look firmer and smaller can be perfect candidates for a monsplasty. Those who feel discomfort wearing certain clothing or who wish to correct the imbalanced proportions between their lower abdomen and pubic area are ideal candidates as well. They must be in overall good health and should also have realistic expectations for what can be achieved. Non-smokers are preferred.
Patients who are in the process of losing a significant amount of weight should achieve their weight-loss goals before proceeding with monsplasty. If the patient recently underwent another surgical procedure, a delay until fully recovered is also highly recommended.
What Happens Before and During the Procedure
Your monsplasty consultation
A consultation at Ayim Surgical Arts will help the patient learn more about the procedure while allowing Dr. Ayim to understand their goals fully. It also allows patients to voice any concerns that they may have regarding the procedure.
How does monsplasty work
A monsplasty typically involves making a small, low incision in the target area, which allows access to the excess tissue that has accumulated on the mons pubis. This excess fatty tissue is then removed, usually with mons pubis liposuction, along with any loose skin.
The goal is to remove the excess volume from the area, which is causing it to bulge. By removing the excess fat and skin, the mons pubis can then become flatter and tighter.
Once the area is reshaped, the incision is closed with fine sutures to support proper healing and a discreet final line.
Recovery and Results After Monsplasty
You can expect mild swelling and tenderness in the first few days, which gradually improve with proper care. Most people return to their regular routines soon, as monsplasty is typically an outpatient procedure with a simple recovery process.
You can support your healing by keeping the area clean, wearing loose clothing, and avoiding heavy activity until Dr. Ayim clears you. A cool compress may help ease early swelling, and light walking around your home can promote healthy circulation while still giving your body time to rest.
Early changes often appear within a few weeks as swelling begins to fade. Your final contour continues to refine over several months, giving the mons pubis area a smoother, more balanced look. Results usually remain steady when you maintain a stable body weight, and many patients notice that clothing fits better and the lower abdomen appears more natural in shape.
