What it is
In general, the lipofilling technique can be used on various parts of the body and face to create missing or additional volume, as well as correct various defects. For example, lipofilling is a common method of breast enlargement, along with the implantation of silicone implants. Its main difference from the implantation technique is its fragility, caused by the ability of fat to dissolve over time and disappear with further weight loss of the patient.
As for intimate plastic surgery, lipofilling allows you to adjust the volume and shape of the genital organ. This procedure is carried out using an injection made through a syringe; The patient's own adipose tissue is used as filler. This procedure has no age restrictions and can be performed provided that the patient does not have any diseases in chronic or acute forms.
An important nuance when carrying out lipofilling is that the patient must have sufficient reserves of adipose tissue. Typically, areas of the body for fat harvesting include the abdomen, sides, and buttocks. But, of course, you should not think that such a procedure is suitable only for obese patients and people with a larger body. As a rule, there is enough adipose tissue even in fairly slender representatives of the stronger sex.
Indications for the penile lipofilling procedure include:
- Insufficient penis diameter – up to 2 cm;
- Decreased libido due to complexes caused by such parameters, as well as related problems in the sexual sphere;
- The patient is dissatisfied with the appearance of his genital organ.
Indications for surgery
Often, the small size of the penis leads to internal psychological complexes, which causes the inability to achieve and maintain an erection necessary for full sexual intercourse.
This pushes the stronger sex to carry out procedures aimed at increasing the size of the phallus. There are cases when a patient can boast of impressive parameters, but he resorts to minimally invasive plastic surgery due to asymmetry or deformation of the penis. As a result, the attractiveness of the reproductive organ improves, and the feeling of dissatisfaction with appearance becomes a thing of the past.
Sometimes men decide to undergo lipofilling because they are very concerned that their partner is not satisfied with the thickness of their penis during sex. Therefore, the desire to improve the quality of sexual life is one of the indications for undergoing manipulation to thicken the penis. This is how a man increases his self-esteem and becomes more confident.
To eliminate the risks of complications, before performing minimally invasive plastic surgery, you should make sure that there are no contraindications. Some are absolute, others are relative. Therefore, before surgery to thicken the penis, a man undergoes an examination.
Lipofilling may be refused if the functionality of the immune system is impaired or if there are inflammatory processes. Contraindications also include sexually transmitted, mental and infectious diseases, diseases of the genitourinary system and blood vessels, and diabetes.
The downside for the patient will be the presence of blood clotting disorders. The procedure will not be carried out if purulent wounds are found on the skin of the penis. Lipofilling of the penis is performed on patients who are already 18 years old.
Lipofilling of the penis is an operation and therefore, when agreeing to the procedure, you need to know that unpleasant consequences may appear after it:
- formation of lumps of fat under the skin of the penis;
- inflammation of the lymph nodes in the groin area;
- swelling of the genitals, legs;
- genital suppuration (purulent accumulations under the skin of the groin, penis);
- fibrosis (scarring of cavernous tissue);
- pain when urinating.
Complications of lipofilling
In some cases, all side effects of lipofilling go away on their own within 2-3 days, but often the patient cannot do without the help of a surgeon. The doctor will examine the genital organ and decide how to deal with the consequences of the operation. In this case, there are only two options:
- drug treatment;
- repeat surgery to correct the results obtained.
Contraindications
Lipomodeling of the penis has a number of prohibitions. These include:
- diabetes mellitus type l, ll, lll;
- diseases of blood vessels or arteries (mainly atherosclerosis and varicose veins)
- congenital or acquired deformity of the penis;
- urinary tract infections;
- sexually transmitted diseases of any complexity;
- oncology and purulent rashes on the surface of the phallus;
- mental illness;
- weakened immunity.
Some contraindications to the procedure are relative, but most of them are an absolute prohibition. Therefore, before lipofilling, you need to undergo an examination and cure any detected pathologies.
Medical indications for phalloplasty relate to:
- small penis and micropenis;
- developmental defects (epi- and hypospadias);
- genital injuries;
- traumatic amputation;
- gender change.
Other programs that allow you to enlarge the penis are performed at the request of the patient.
Contraindications are the same for any planned surgical interventions:
- temperature increase;
- acute infectious process;
- diabetes;
- severe pathologies of internal organs.
Preparation for the procedure
Lipofilling is a technique of intimate plastic surgery. First, you need to get an appointment with an appropriate medical specialist who will decide whether you should undergo this operation, and will also tell you about the possible results after lipofilling and correlate them with your desires. During the examination, the surgeon will also be able to determine the areas where your fat tissue will be harvested and will tell you whether there will be enough of it for the procedure to be successful.
If the decision to undergo surgery is positive, you will need to follow a number of medical recommendations:
• Two weeks before the procedure, if possible, you should stop drinking alcohol and smoking. It is recommended to spend this period in a state of rest and absence of stress; • During the same two weeks, you should not take blood thinning medications, for example, aspirin, citramon, paracetamol and other substances containing acetylsalicylic acid; • For the same reason, you should not use dietary supplements containing ginkgo biloba plant extract and vitamin E for two weeks; • As prescribed by a medical specialist, the day before surgery it is possible to take a sedative; • Before the operation itself, you must also undergo a series of tests that the doctor will prescribe. These include general blood and urine tests, as well as tests for HIV, hepatitis, and syphilis.
On the eve of the procedure, it is advisable to:
- Take a shower and wash your hair, since it will be problematic to do this immediately after the operation;
- Surgery is performed on an empty stomach; Accordingly, 6-8 hours before the procedure you must not eat or drink.
You will learn more about these and other recommendations at an appointment with a medical specialist.
Reviews from patients
I’ve had complexes about the size of my penis since school. At the age of 23, I purchased an extender and used it to lengthen my penis by 3 centimeters, but then I realized that it had stretched and become too thin. This led to even greater depression. Ultimately, I decided to visit a surgeon, who suggested that I use lipofilling. The procedure is really effective. It's been 4 years and my penis is in excellent condition.
Artem, 40 years old.
Lipoplasty is a good solution for those who want to make their penis thicker, no matter what the reason is. Among my friends there are at least two people who have already undergone this procedure, not including me. There are no dissatisfied people. I don’t regret spending 20,000 rubles; if I had a choice, I would do it again.
Anna, 37 years old.
My husband and I made a joint decision to increase the size of his penis. I’ve wanted this for a long time, and he doesn’t mind. We had a choice - either penile prosthesis or fat injection. After reading negative reviews about implants, we decided to go with lipofilling. And they guessed right. The procedure was quick, there were zero complications, and it was cheap. Both are happy.
How is lipofilling performed?
This surgical intervention is considered not difficult and not very traumatic. The procedure can be performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia.
The lipofilling procedure itself consists of three stages:
- Liposuction, or removal of the patient's fat tissue;
- Processing and cleaning of collected material;
- Implantation of fat cells into the penile area.
Liposuction
The cells are collected using a small instrument with a rounded tip, which does not leave marks or scars, and does not damage the blood vessels and nerves of the body. A small puncture is made in the fold of skin in the area where the cells are collected, into which a special solution is pumped, making it easier to carry out the liposuction process. The patient's fat is pumped out from this area using a vacuum.
Treatment
Since the material collected by the surgeon contains not only fat cells, but also blood, solution, and other impurities, it must be cleaned before insertion into the penis area. Cleaning is carried out in special devices and is carried out quickly.
Injection of adipose tissue
The material is implanted under the skin using injections. This happens through a microneedle, in small portions. When inserting, the doctor must distribute the material so that it is evenly distributed along the shaft of the penis. At the end of the procedure, a sterile bandage is applied to the area.
Possible complications and contraindications
The main indication for thickening the penis is dissatisfaction with the size of the penis and strong complexes about this, and most importantly, the inability to satisfy a woman due to the small size of the penis.
After the procedure for thickening the penis, the patient receives an increase in self-esteem, increased sexual attractiveness, improved quality of sexual life, and gets rid of the feeling of embarrassment in male companies.
After minimally invasive plastic surgery, a man is faced with swelling of the reproductive organ, which is a consequence of surgical intervention. In rare cases, infection may spread and scarring may appear due to the proliferation of connective tissue. The risks of uneven distribution of material under the skin of the phallus should not be excluded. The patient may also experience the appearance of lumps and compactions.
Reviews from men who decided to give preference to lipofilling show that the procedure can increase the thickness of the penis by 0.5-1.5 centimeters. In a non-excited state, the penis becomes visually longer, which is explained by an increase in gravity.
However, such an operation to increase the thickness of the penis cannot boast of a long-lasting result. The fact is that fat cells that have lost connection with the supplying vessels begin to dissolve over time. This process occurs unevenly, which leads to noticeable deformation of the penis. As a result, injections have to be repeated after 1-2 years.
The advantages and disadvantages of penis lipofilling include:
- increase in penis thickness by 0.5-1.5 cm;
- no visible post-operative scars;
- minimal risks of allergic and inflammatory reactions;
- use of natural material;
- in the postoperative period there is no need to use an extender or other devices;
- to maintain the effect, the procedure will have to be repeated after 1-2 years;
- risks of deformation of the phallus, the appearance of seals;
- Carrying out lipofilling of a penis involves considerable financial expenses.
Lipofilling is an enlargement of the penis by subcutaneous injection of fat deposits taken from the buttocks, thighs or abdomen. It is classified as a minimally invasive type of plastic surgery, and the name of the operation itself is translated as “fat filling.” Lipofilling is an alternative to the classic procedure for penis extension, but in this case there is no noticeable lengthening of the penis. The fat injection is evenly distributed under the skin and thus only the volume of the manhood can be increased.
Contraindications
Rehabilitation period
Since the lipofilling procedure is low-traumatic and unrelated, in the case of work with the volume of the penis, with the introduction of large volumes of adipose tissue, patients are often discharged home on the day of the procedure. If general anesthesia is used, the patient remains in the clinic - usually for a day.
During the postoperative period, the following sensations are possible:
- Mild painful and uncomfortable sensations that last a short time and go away on their own;
- Bruising and swelling may also appear in the places where the surgeon removed the fatty tissue. As a rule, such marks disappear within two weeks;
- In some cases, there may be increased sensitivity in the genital area.
On average, you can start light physical activity and sexual activity three weeks after lipofilling. More active sports activities are possible after one and a half to two months, if the healing stage goes well.
Reviews
Lipofilling of the penis is the simplest method for correcting its size and volume. The big advantage of the technique is the minimal number of risks, since foreign bodies are not introduced into the patient (as is the case with implants). Consequently, the material will not be rejected and will not cause allergies.
Today, this operation has become very popular and has extremely positive reviews from patients. According to men who have already resorted to this method, lipofilling is an excellent solution to two problems at once: insufficient length of the penis and removal of excess fat from the abdomen or thighs.
The operation is performed within 1-2 hours, after which you can go home and continue rehabilitation on an outpatient basis. As for the duration of the effect, judging by the reviews, it lasts from 7 years and does not require additional correction.
How long does the result last?
Don’t think that the effect of lipofilling will stay with you for life. How long the result achieved during the procedure will last depends on the characteristics of the individual patient’s body.
The volume of the penis increases due to the introduction of its own adipose tissue, and fat cells, as is known, tend to be absorbed, especially if the patient has a thin, asthenic physique.
For some men, the resorption of the injected fat tissue will occur quite quickly, while for others the process will be barely noticeable. Resorption can be accelerated by active sex life, as well as sudden weight loss. In this case, the parameters of the genital organ will return to the original ones, and the patient will need correction, which will lead to additional costs.
The lipofilling procedure for any area of the body is recommended to be performed when the patient is at a stable weight, which, however, does not guarantee the preservation of fat cells in the desired area.
How much does the operation cost?
An analysis of the prices of penis enlargement operations shows a wide variation in the cost of treatment.
- In Moscow, prices for ligamentotomy range from 20,000 to 200,000 rubles;
- lipofilling - price starts from 10,000 rubles;
- muscle transplantation - $1500-2500;
- penile prosthetics - from 20,000;
- introduction of gel and silicone implants - the average price in Moscow is from 1,000,000, depending on the implant;
- prices for hyaluron injections in the table
- introduction of the matrix from $1000.
The price ranges from 10-20,000 - this is only surgical intervention, without taking into account the costs of the patient’s hospital stay and drug treatment.
Patient reviews of penis lipofilling
Most of the patients who decided to undergo the lipofilling procedure say in their reviews that the results achieved with the help of the procedure, although desirable, are temporary - the injected material was absorbed on average after six months; the parameters of the penis returned to their original values. At the same time, some people who have undergone the procedure remain at the site of injection of adipose tissue with tubercles and irregularities.
Most patients describe the rehabilitation process as easy; the injected adipose tissue takes root easily. On average, about one to one and a half centimeters are added to the girth.
Penis enlargement with hyaluronic acid fillers and post-procedure care
With just one visit to our clinic, a man can look at his intimate life differently and believe in his sexual power. To get the desired effect and consolidate the result, you must strictly follow the doctor’s recommendations during the rehabilitation period:
- During recovery, you need to completely avoid sex for at least three weeks. The need is due to the fact that it will take a certain period for the wounds to heal and the filler to be evenly distributed. If you do not follow this rule, “lumps” and irregularities will form on the head.
- Carefully monitor the condition of the penis and, even if there are minor changes, immediately contact your BONNE CLINIQUE doctor.
- Take medications prescribed by your urologist regularly.
- Follow the antiseptic measures informed by the doctor.
The recovery period is not associated with pain and most often proceeds easily. Some discomfort may be felt on the day of plastic surgery, after the anesthetic has stopped working.
Penis enlargement with hyaluronic acid is an absolutely harmless and painless method. The minimally invasive technique does not threaten patients with serious complications or side effects.
If you cannot decide to enlarge your penis with hyaluronic acid because you are afraid of injections, make an appointment with a urologist by phone. The specialist will tell you in detail what sensations you may experience during the procedure and why you should not be afraid of the consequences.
