What is Fat Transfer to Penis?
Penis fat transfer increases girth and flaccid appearance by transferring a patient’s own purified fat from one area of the body to the penile shaft. Using your natural fat supply removes the risk of allergic reactions and keeps the enhancement 100% autologous and natural. The fat is harvested from an area where it can be spared (typically the abdomen or thighs) and is precisely injected into the shaft to achieve a significant enhancement.

Who is a Good Candidate?
Ideal candidates are men who:
- Desire to increase the girth or flaccid appearance of their penis
- Have realistic expectations regarding procedural outcomes
- Possess sufficient donor fat (abdomen or thighs) for harvesting
- Are over the age of 18
- Are non-smokers and non-nicotine users in overall good physical health
How Does the Procedure Work?
On the day of your procedure, the treatment areas are thoroughly cleansed and prepped, and local anesthesia is applied to ensure total comfort throughout the session.
- Fat Harvesting (Liposuction): Under local anesthesia, tiny micro-incisions are made in the donor area (stomach or thighs). A specialized cannula is used to gently suction the necessary fat cells.
- Purification: The harvested fat is immediately processed and purified to isolate viable fat cells for optimal retention.
- Fat Injection: Using a specialized cannula inserted through tiny entry points at the base of the penis, the purified fat is precisely layered along the shaft. While numbing agents keep discomfort to a minimum, you may feel slight pressure or tugging during this stage.
What is Recovery Like?
- Initial Healing: Swelling, mild bruising, and tenderness in both the donor and treatment areas are expected and typically dissipate within 2 weeks. Most patients require about 24 hours of rest before resuming light tasks.
- Activity Restrictions: For the first week, avoid standing for long periods, prolonged walking, and strenuous physical activity (such as heavy lifting).
- Resuming Normal Function: Light exercise and sexual activity can typically resume after 2 weeks. Mild discomfort during erections can occur for up to a month and is normal; if pain becomes severe, please contact our office.
- Final Results: While immediate cosmetic improvements will be visible right away, final results settle around 6 months as the transferred fat establishes a blood supply. A touch-up session may be planned to optimize overall volume.
