Genital area aesthetics in men is known as penis aesthetics. It may be necessary due to some congenital or acquired effects in order to change the appearance or function of the penis. Therefore, penis aesthetic surgeries are performed to both eliminate aesthetic concerns and improve the quality of sexual life. Common problems include short or thin penis and curvature.
Penis aesthetic surgeries begin with a urology examination and the patient’s complaints are carefully evaluated. According to the examination results, the appropriate aesthetic intervention is determined, taking into account the patient’s wishes and possible appearance improvement. Penile aesthetic surgeries are performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the severity of the operation. These surgeries may include:
Penis Lengthening Surgery: Penis lengthening surgery can be performed in two ways. In the first method, the tissues and ligaments between the penis and the pelvis are cut and the penis is pulled forward and lengthened. In the second method, fat is removed from the root of the penis, this area is shaped and the appearance of the penis is lengthened.
Penis Thickening Surgery: Penis thickening surgeries are suitable for patients who experience loss of self-confidence due to a thin penis or a penis that has become thinner as a result of weight loss. Three different methods can be used for these surgeries: fat transfer, filler injection or tissue transfer.
Penis Curvature Correction Surgery: Penile curvature correction surgeries are performed to correct curvatures caused by reasons such as incorrect circumcision, accidents, developmental disorders or drug treatments. These surgeries are sometimes supported by prosthetic placement.
The most suitable penis aesthetic method for each patient is determined depending on the patient’s individual condition and wishes. Therefore, importance should be given to the recommendations of the doctor who will perform the surgical intervention.
After penis aesthetic surgery, care should be taken to clean and dress the genital area. Sexual intercourse is undesirable until the tissues are completely healed (usually 1.5 – 2 months). Medicines recommended by the doctor should be used regularly. Tight and tight clothing should be avoided and the genital area should be kept dry. Exercising should be avoided and doctor’s recommendations should be followed. Problems such as loss of sensation or abnormal appearance usually do not occur after surgery. It is important to consult a doctor in case of any problems.
