Clinique du Lac's medical team is on hand to answer all your questions about intimate medicine and penoplasty, the name given to penis augmentation.
Personalized assessment
To determine the most appropriate treatment, an initial consultation is recommended.
The aim is to analyze your needs and draw up a customized treatment plan.
Thickening penoplasty
The result is an increase in the circumference of the penis, both at rest and when erect. This is the most frequently performed procedure. Fat is injected under the skin of the penis. This fat is generally taken from the abdomen or thigh, then purified (lipomodelling, lipostructure or autologous fat reinjection). The result is definitive, unless a touch-up is required. This operation increases the size of the penis by 2 to 3 cm.
Lengthening penoplasty
It is mainly effective on the penis at rest. It is less effective on the erect penis. It enables the men concerned to combat their complex, but is not intended to improve their sex life.
This technique involves freeing the suspensory ligament that connects the penis to the pubic bone. By "unbuckling" the penis, the lengthening obtained varies from 3 to 6 cm.
Scrotal lift (Scholarships)
Some men are bothered by the distended appearance of their scrotum, the envelope that surrounds the two testicles. This skin sagging can affect both young and older men.
Contrary to what you might think, it's quite rare to see patients who come to a consultation saying that it's not pretty and that they have a complex. Even if stars like George Clooney have publicized testicle lifts, men mainly express functional discomfort in their daily lives (sport, clothing, sexual relations).
Gynecomastia
Many gynecomasties are not related to a health problem. They are physiological (or normal) gynecomastia.
More than half of adolescent boys develop gynecomastia at puberty. This is a normal phenomenon, generally occurring around the age of 13-14, and is linked to the hormonal phenomena of puberty. It lasts between 6 months and 2 years, and can be distressing for a teenager, even if it's commonplace.
In older men, gynecomastia can appear with age after 50. The older you get, the more frequent this swelling of the mammary gland becomes. It is linked to the decline in androgens over the years.
