  1. 1. Would you have your mons lifted?

    • Yes, they are as out of shape as I am.
    • No, that area is forbidden!
    • Maybe...

Hmm... I'll make a point of asking for it when I get round to having the TT and BL. I don't shave, other than a close trim and tidy up, because my stretch marks go right down beneath the pubic hair and I figure it probably looks wrinkly as hell down there. No need to expose THAT, right? It would be nice to have the skin feel taut again.

Fannie & Carrie - I don't shave that area either. I'm a very clumsy person, if I shave my legs I get knicks. I can see mutilating myself down there and trying to explain that to the ER. I'd die of morification!

No Carrie, it seriously creeps me out. The thought of my DH admiring what is basically something that looks like a 10 year old girl is not a nice thought.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who feels that way! I can see trimming, but going bald is too far for me!

I am not a very hairy person anyway, and have never had a problem with curlies outside the bikini line. I'm blonde and all my hair (legs, armpits, etc) is very light and wispy.

If I'm seeing someone, I will make an effort to trim the hairs short, and will occasionally shave a shape into the top area for fun, but that always comes at a price of horrendous itchiness afterwards. I have used Nair (the one for delicate skin) a couple of times to really reduce the forest, but that tended to leave me looking motheaten as it is very hard to control the edges. I wouldn't mind using this option to get rid of it all, as I don't have a reaction to it, but I'm with Jachut in that I think the bald look is a little bit creepy and smacks of pedophilia.

I haven't been seeing anyone on an intimate basis for 12 months anyway, so at the moment, I'm at full bush, hehehe.

Wow! I can't believe where this poll/thread has gone. Pubic hair removal? There is nothing we women won't share.

I have no comment other than to say that on the a "reality" TV show that takes place in California and is about plastic surgeons....you know the one...it's got Dr. Rey and Dr. Diamond....the one on TLC channel, I think.

Anyway, one of the episodes profiled a young woman who had lost a lot of weight and wanted to reduce the size of her mons. She got liposuction and, I think, a lift.

Just wanted to share that tidbit.

I had a Tummy Tuck, before I decided to get lap band (go figure) I assumed the Doc would take care of that, but he didn't. So if you have one done make sure you talk to him or her about it.

Thanks for the info vegwannabe!

I quit watching that show a few years back because Dr. Rey drives me NUTS -- he's SO full of himself and he often acts very strangely and unprofessionally with his patients, also his wife (who seems to be a chronic "whiner") gets on my last nerve too!!!

Dr. Diamond seems like a pretty good guy though, I liked the episode where he proposed to his girlfriend and arranged for her Mom and sisters to be there as a surprise as well, I thought that was really sweet :incazzato::smile::driving:! They probably have children by now -- huh?

I'm a full bush right now too, I know horrible lol, I normally keep it clean.

I think I like to keep it so clean shaven is because I am young and I am not married or in a relationship, I dunno what's going to come along...LOL I know but yeah...But it's been quite awhile since I have had sex, so I havent even shaved my legs recently LOL. I don't show them so I see no reason to shave them until I feel better showing them off.

Wow, is clean shaving normal? I had no idea!

A bit strange where I come from. Nice and trim... ok, but nothing?

Ew.

Oh yeah, I had to clean shave for a surgery a few years ago, so Fanny I know what you mean about the itchies.

It seems like going bald has suddenly become normal, at least with a lot of girls I know. All of my female coworkers say that they shave all of theirs. (Yea, we talk about weird stuff!!) I have even heard of GUYS shaving all of theirs as well!

It's the latest fashion in porn, so I think a lot of people are doing it because they think it is sexy. Guys apparently get talked into shaving themselves because it makes them look bigger. I've only seen it once but I thought it made him look like a plucked turkey neck! EWW!!

Its one of those things where I'm glad I'm 40 and dont have to worry about stuff like that, lol. Nice, neat, bikini line done, fine, but plucked clean, no thanks, for reasons already stated.

I'm lucky not to be particularly hairy either, despite being dark haired and fair skinned, I didnt get cursed with dark body hair, its all fine and blonde. A quick once over with the razor on legs (only below the knees), underarms and bikini line does me once a week to once a fortnight. I have an $11 eyebrow wax once every three weeks. I cant believe the money people have to spend on hair removal!

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
