Penis Enlargement: Fat Transfer

For men who feel inadequate because of the size of their penis, there are several procedures available to increase girth and length. Fat grafting is a promising, minimally invasive procedure that transfers purified fat from the patient’s body to the penile shaft. A type of stem cell has  been found in adipose tissue which could also help stimulate blood flow and natural growth, although changes would be subtle and have not been clinically studied. Fat grafting, unlike dermal fillers, also has the advantage of being derived from the patient so there is no chance of substance rejection. 

Before a fat grafting procedure, adipose tissue must be collected and purified. Liposuction will be performed, typically on the stomach or thighs, although fat can be collected from most anywhere on the body with unwanted fatty deposits. Once enough fat is collected the fat will be purified, removing cell debris, blood, and infiltration fluid. A small incision will be made at either the base of the penis or within a previous circumcision scar so that the cannula can be inserted. Fat will then be distributed around the shaft of the penis, between 30-65mL, although amount may be more or less depending on the patient. Once complete, the fat may be manually manipulated to ensure even dispersal of the fat. No stitches are typically necessary unless combined with a more invasive implant procedure. Patient will have to wear loose fitting clothes for 1-2 weeks, can resume penetrative sex after 1-2 weeks, and should refrain from strenuous exercise for 1 month.
