As women age they lose fatty tissue not only from the face and breasts, but from the pubic area as well. Dr. Christine Hamori is a recognized expert in labial rejuvenation and has been featured in popular magazines and made guest appearances on television shows such as “The Doctors” and “The Montel Williams Show”. Here she discusses a cosmetic gynecology procedure that’s getting a lot of attention.

Since many women shave or wax the pubic area, they may find this wrinkling and skin laxity to be less than welcome. This loss of fat manifests in sagginess of the outer lips (labia majora) and mons pubis. Sex may even be uncomfortable due to the loss of natural padding along the pubic bone that fat provides.
While some women may prefer to treat this condition with temporary injectable fillers, a more permanent option for filling this area is “micro fat grafting.” This procedure involves removing fat cells from the lower abdomen, hips or lower back and injecting the skin of the mons pubis and labia majora. The fat fills the pelvic triangle giving a much more youthful and soft appearance.
