A popular topic of interest lately, especially in women’s magazines like COSMOPOLITAN, the FUPA is a condition that can be quite embarrassing for individuals experiencing the symptoms. Though “FUPA” has developed a number of slang and indelicate meanings, it actually stands for “fatty upper pubic area,” and describes an excess of fatty tissue or loose skin located on or directly above the mons pubis—the region that develops hair during puberty. While often inconspicuous in regular clothing, a FUPA can make wearing swimwear or fitness clothing, as well as engaging in intimate activities, a stressful, unpleasant experience for many. Our experienced plastic surgeon, Dr. Charles Perry, recognizes the delicate nature of this perceived issue, and he strives to provide a comprehensive resource on the causes of and available treatments for this concern. A number of factors can contribute to the development of excess fat in the upper pubic area. In many cases, the condition is simply a result of genetic predisposition. Weight gain and loss are also often responsible for the pockets of fat and loose skin associated with this condition. It is commonly developed in women after having children, as weight gain and muscle laxity predominantly occur in and around this region. Another potential cause is diet. Inflammatory foods and processed meals, such as alcohol, high fructose corn syrup, and fast food with high sodium content, may increase fatty deposits and bloating. Stress, too, can play a part in storing fat in this location. As there are many causes, there are also multiple treatments for this condition. Diet, exercise, stress relieving activities, and surgical procedures, including monsplasty and abdominoplasty, are all available to help treat this common condition. For more information on effective therapies to help correct excess fat in the upper pubic area, please check back next week for our article on FUPA treatment.

Is the belly button moved with a Panniculectomy?

Answer: Panniculectomy and Belly Button A panniculectomy removes the excess skin and fat from the pubic area to below the belly button. The belly button is not removed but will be positioned lower on the abdomen since the skin is pulled down.

I read the previous responses from this question and I am confused. I know those seeking the operation and a belly button must be confused as well.I believe the saving of the belly button and its presence after a panniculectomy is to be expected except in rare cases. This aspect of the panniculectomy procedure in my practice has always been covered by insurance although I have spoken to patients who have been to previous consults and the saving of the belly button is an extra cash charge.At times the umbilicus has been injured by previous surgeries through it and can be lost during its attempt to salvage in a panniculectomy. There also exists patients who were so large and the skin so stretched it may be medically impossible to save the belly button. In most instances, seek a surgeon who feels the belly button is a normal part of an attractive abdomen and will save it if at all possible without additional charges.
