It’s one thing to feel confident in the office, but do you feel just as good in your gym shorts or a pair of slim-fitting jeans? Many men don’t due to excess fat in the mons pubis, which is the area just above the penis. In addition to making you feel less confident, excess fat here can cause discomfort during exercise as well as intimate moments.
To solve these issues, an increasing number of men are turning to male pubic liposuction. This refinement procedure is often an excellent option for men who are generally fit but have trouble getting rid of fat in this area. Other men turn to male pubic liposuction after a significant weight loss to get rid of the last bit of stubborn fat in the mons pubis.
Male pubic liposuction is an extremely targeted procedure that removes fat specifically from the mons pubis area. It is performed using power-assisted liposuction (PAL) and other techniques that allow for precise fat removal in areas of fibrous tissue. The procedure does not impact or alter the anatomy of the genitals but instead focuses on the area just above them, creating a cleaner, smoother silhouette from the abs to the penis.
When considering male pubic liposuction, it’s important to understand both what it can do and what it can’t. This procedure removes fat only and does not address excess skin in the area such as that which may be left behind by an extreme weight loss. Skin excision surgery can be combined with male pubic liposuction in this case, however.
Male pubic liposuction is also not a solution for buried penis syndrome. In this condition, weak ligaments and/or excess skin can make the penis appear small despite the fact that it is a normal size. It can also cause problems with urination, penetration, and frequent infection. Male pubic liposuction only removes fat from above the genitals and is not a cure for buried penis syndrome.
Male pubic liposuction can solve problems with excess fat above the genitals, but you may be wondering why this issue develops in the first place. There are a number of possible reasons that include:
Most men with a visible bulge above their genitals are good candidates for male pubic liposuction so long as they are generally healthy nonsmokers. It is possible to undergo this procedure during awake liposuction, so you could be a candidate for male pubic liposuction even if you’re not the best candidate for general anesthesia. Many candidates are able to maintain a healthy weight and have flat abs but just can’t seem to lose mons pubis area fat.
It is important that potential patients have good skin elasticity so that the skin can rebound after the fat beneath it is removed. Poor skin elasticity will lead to sagging, hanging skin. If your skin elasticity is poor, your plastic surgeon can combine your liposuction procedure with a skin-tightening technique such as J-plasma.
Men who choose to undergo pubic liposuction can expect to receive several benefits from the procedure, including:
When performed alone, male pubic liposuction takes about 30 to 60 minutes. The surgery will proceed as follows:
Recovering from male pubic liposuction is easy and generally fairly quick. You can use over-the-counter pain medication to manage any discomfort, and your doctor may give you prescription pain pills for the first couple of days. You will also need to keep your incisions clean as they heal. Along the way, you can expect:
Male pubic liposuction can be combined with a number of other procedures depending on your needs and desires. Although the choices are almost endless, the procedure is most often combined with:

It offers both functional and aesthetic benefits, from better clothing fit to improved confidence in intimate settings. It’s ideal for otherwise fit men who struggle with this localized area.

Mild soreness is common for a few days, but most men describe it as manageable and similar to muscle soreness. Prescription pain meds are rarely needed.
No. Fat removal occurs superficially and does not impact nerves or structures involved in sexual function.
If you maintain a stable weight, your results will be long-lasting. Fat cells removed during liposuction do not regenerate. Your body can make new fat cells, however, if you gain a significant amount of weight after surgery, so it’s important to stay healthy.
Light walking is encouraged immediately after surgery, and most men return to regular workouts about three to four weeks after surgery, depending on swelling and healing progress.
You will have small (2–3 mm) scars, but surgeons usually hide them in natural body creases or hair-bearing areas. You can also expect your scars to fade significantly over time.
Many men can comfortably resume sexual activity in two to three weeks, although some prefer to wait for four to six weeks.
