It is not uncommon for a woman to have an unsightly fat deposit in her pubic region, which causes a bulge in clothes or swimsuits. This deposit may have been present since birth or acquired with weight gain, puberty, or after a tummy tuck. Women report psychological distress stemming from embarrassment, feelings of inadequacy and shame, and difficulty finding clothing that conceals the unsightly bulge.
Typically, the fat can be eliminated by simple public liposuction as long as there is no excess skin. Aging and weight gain or loss may cause the pubic and vaginal regions to descend, resulting in an aged appearance of the vaginal area. In these cases, the vulva can be rejuvenated and lifted by excising excess skin above the pubic hair and removing excess fat in the pubic region. The pubic skin must be stabilized to the lower abdominal muscles to be successful and to achieve optimal aesthetic appearance.
