Penis girth enhancement is a non-surgical filling procedure that can be easily performed in a clinical setting. The number of people applying to urology clinics with penis enlargement requests is increasing day by day. Although penis enlargement is performed to increase length and thickness, it is known that women actually care more about thickness for sexual satisfaction. In addition, penis lengthening is performed in an operating room. However, penis girth enhancement is easily performed in a clinical setting. Our patients can return to their daily lives after the procedure. For these reasons, non-surgical penis girth enhancement has become more popular.

What is normal penis thickness?
Scientific studies have been conducted on penis length and thickness. As a result of these studies, different values have been found in different countries. The average flaccid penis circumference is determined as 9-10cm, and the erect penis circumference is determined as 11-12cm.
Which fillers are used in penile girth enhancement?
The fillers used in non-surgical penile girth enhancement are mainly classified as soluble and non-soluble, that is, permanent fillers. Non-soluble fillers are oils such as Silicone, Paraffin, Vaseline. Dissolvable fillers are hyaluronic acid, PLA and plasma prepared from the person’s blood.
In the penile girth enhancement process performed in the operating room, different fillers are used. These include fat tissue, tissue grafts, and silicone materials. This subject will be explained in detail in another article.
Why are non-dissolvable fillers not preferred?
Long-term permanent fillers (such as silicone, paraffin or vaseline) applied under the skin of the penis cause serious reactions because they are not compatible with the body. These fillers can cause poor blood supply and deformity in the skin of the penis. Since these fillers adhere to the tissues, they are also very difficult to remove and unfortunately are removed with the skin of the penis. They require a difficult, multi-stage treatment by transferring skin from another tissue for the defect formed in the skin of the penis.
For these reasons, we do not prefer permanent fillers for the skin of the penis.
Which is the most reliable filler?
Hyaluronic acid fillers are the most reliable fillers today. Hyaluronic acid is a structural element synthesized in the body and functions as a supporting tissue between cells. It provides tissue elasticity and tone, and serves cell renewal and tissue healing. The amount of this substance decreases in a person with age.
Hyaluronic acid is produced in a laboratory environment, processed and made ready for use in the human body. There are different hyaluronic acid products prepared for various parts of the body. In our clinic, we use licensed hyaluronic acid products developed for the penis and compatible with penile tissue.
How is penile girth enhancement done with hyaluronic acid fillers?
Penile girth enhancement using hyaluronic acid is done in a clinical environment. It does not need to be applied in a hospital or operating room. Before the procedure, detailed information is given to our patients and then an examination is performed. Local anesthesia is applied to the base of the penis for suitable patients. After waiting for 5-10 minutes, it is checked that our patients do not feel pain. Then, hyaluronic acid is injected under the skin of the penis. It is distributed homogeneously to the penis, especially to the dorsal and lateral sides, completely symmetrically. After the process, the penis is wrapped with an antibiotic bandage.
What should patients pay attention to after the penis thickening procedure?
After the procedure, our patients can return to their daily activities. The bandage wrapped around the penis is removed the next day and a shower is taken. The applied filler can dissolve under the effect of heat and pressure. Therefore, I especially recommend to take a warm shower for 1 week. Again, I do not recommend that they go to the Turkish bath or sauna for 1 week. Masturbation or sexual intercourse is not allowed for 10 days.
Is hyaluronic acid based penile girth enhancement permanent?
Hyaluronic acid is not permanent in the body. It is broken down in the body by an enzyme called hyaluronidase over time and the volume effect disappears over time. The permanence period varies from brand to brand, but is around 1 year.
Does the filler need to be applied again?
Since the thickening effect of hyaluronic acid fillers decreases over time, it may need to be applied again. With the procedure performed in a short time in a clinical environment, our patients can regain volume and thickness in their penises.
Risks and side effects of penile girth enhancement with hyaluronic acid
The penile girth enhancement procedure with hyaluronic acid carries a much lower risk compared to other thickening methods. Depending on the technique applied, bruising and edema may be observed on the penis skin. Infection, mild pain or decreased sensitivity at the needle entry site are side effects. All of these side effects are temporary. Some of our patients may experience thinning due to melting after the application or months after the procedure. In these patients, an aesthetic and natural shape is achieved with small applications to the melted area.
Can hyaluronic acid be applied to the penile body and glans in the same session?
Hyaluronic acid can also be applied to the glans during the penis thickening procedure. In fact, performing both procedures in the same session provides a more aesthetic penis appearance. When excessive thickness is achieved in the penis body, the glans may remain proportionally small. This does not create an aesthetic appearance. For this reason, while hyaluronic acid is applied to the penis body, it can also be applied to the glans in the same session.
We also recommend a filler application to the body of the penis for our patients who have had hyaluronic acid filler applied to the glans penis for premature ejaculation treatment. Hyaluronic acid, which creates a barrier under the skin of the glans penis, also reduces hypersensitivity in the body of the penis and delays ejaculation time.
