Pubic Lift (Monsplasty) Sydney

A Pubic Lift (Monsplasty) is a surgical procedure performed on the upper pubic area. This area is often known as the pubic mound or the fatty upper pubic area (FUPA). A Monsplasty aims to reposition and reduce excess tissue, thereby changing the shape and proportions of the pubic region relative to the abdominal wall. Although it can be performed as an individual procedure, a Monsplasty is a key component of any comprehensive Body Contouring Surgery (BCS) plan. It is always included in any Abdominoplasty surgery performed by Dr Dona.
