Getting Mons Lift w/Back Lipo - goodbye Ken Doll look



Recommended Posts

Had my pre-surgery appt today and doc agrees that in addition to the scheduled flank/back Lipo I need to address mons area. He's including lipo and lift of the mons area at no additional cost - yippee! I will finally be able to wear fitted dresses and skirts w/o looking as if I'm wearing a jock strap. Not an attractive look on a woman - soon... goodbye Ken Doll look.

Really exciting..... I am so tempted to take my bandages off to see what's going on down there.... But can't do that until tomorrow. I am 6 hrs post op.....

Had my procedure yesterday. I'm a little sore ~ back and sides feel like I've spent 24 hours at the gym going nonstop. I actually see great results already, can only imagine how things will look after the swelling goes down.

The Ken doll look is a thing of the past, my mons pubis area has been lipo'd and lifted ~ it looks normal down there :) My back rolls are all gone. Doc actually did a touch up around stomach area, which I wasn't expecting - he's great and such the perfectionist.

I'll take pics once I'm brave enough to struggle with this compression garment again.

By the way, it's weird that I don't feel any discomfort along the incision of the mons lift. The back and side area are bruised and really tender from the Lipo.< /p>

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
