What Is Penis Enlargement Surgery?
Penis enlargement surgery, also called phalloplasty, is a group of medical procedures designed to increase penile length, girth, or both. These methods may involve suspensory ligament release, fat transfer (lipofilling), dermal fillers, or penile implants.
While many men pursue enlargement for cosmetic or self-confidence reasons, others undergo it to address micropenis, penile deformities, or erectile dysfunction.
Fact: According to the European Association of Urology (2022), global demand for male enhancement procedures rose by 20% in the last decade, with Malaysia emerging as a key medical tourism hub due to affordable costs and LCP-certified specialists.
Girth vs. Length in Penis Enlargement Surgery
When discussing penis enlargement surgery, it is important to understand the difference between length enhancement and girth enhancement, as both address different concerns.
Length Enhancement: Typically achieved through suspensory ligament release, this method increases the visible portion of the penis outside the body. Most men gain around 1–2 cm in flaccid length, while erect length changes are usually more modest.
Girth Enhancement: Focuses on increasing shaft thickness using techniques such as fat transfer (lipofilling), dermal fillers, or tissue grafts. Results are often more noticeable than length procedures, with studies reporting a 10–30% increase in penile circumference.
Both approaches have unique benefits and limitations, and in some cases, men may combine them for a more balanced outcome. Choosing between girth and length depends on individual goals, anatomy, and medical suitability.
Who Is a Candidate for Penis Enlargement Surgery?
Not every man is suitable for phalloplasty. In Malaysia, good candidates usually:
Are healthy adult men (21+) with a fully developed penis
Experience psychological distress or low self-esteem due to penile size
Have congenital conditions, injury, or deformities
Suffer from severe erectile dysfunction (for penile implants)
Hold realistic expectations about results
A full consultation with an LCP-certified urologist or plastic surgeon is required to determine suitability, risks, and realistic outcomes.
Penis Enlargement Surgery Techniques in Malaysia
1. Penile Lengthening Surgery
Involves surgical release of the suspensory ligament at the penile base
May include skin grafting or V-Y advancement flap to extend coverage
Results: approximately 1–2 cm increase in visible flaccid length; erect length change is modest
Usually performed as a day surgery with outpatient recovery
2. Penile Girth Enhancement
Fat Transfer (Lipofilling): Fat harvested from abdomen/thighs and injected along the shaft
Dermal Fillers & Tissue Grafts: Hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers or medical-grade grafts for thicker girth
Results: 10–30% increase in circumference; touch-ups may be required
Immediate results with relatively short downtime
3. Penile Implants (Penile Prosthesis)
Used for severe erectile dysfunction unresponsive to medication
Two types: inflatable implants (hydraulic pump system) or malleable implants (bendable rods)
Restores erectile function, not primarily size — but can be combined with length/girth surgery
Highly effective, with satisfaction rates above 90% among patients and partners (AUA data, 2021)
4. Combined Phalloplasty Procedures
Some men undergo both lengthening and girth enhancement simultaneously
Offers the most comprehensive result but requires careful patient selection
5. Non-Surgical Alternatives
Options like pumps, pills, and topical creams are widely marketed but lack scientific evidence
May provide only temporary cosmetic changes, not permanent enlargement
What Results Can You Expect?
Length: Approximately 1–2 cm increase in visible flaccid length after ligament release
Girth: 10–30% shaft circumference increase with fat grafts or fillers
Function: Penile implants restore rigidity and sexual function in ED patients
Confidence: Studies show improved self-esteem and sexual satisfaction in properly selected patients
Fact: A 2020 review in the Journal of Sexual Medicine found 80% of men reported psychological improvement post-surgery.
Risks and Safety Considerations
When performed by MOH-licensed, LCP-certified surgeons, penis enlargement surgery is generally safe. However, risks may include:
Infection or bleeding
Irregular contour or asymmetry
Temporary loss of sensitivity
Fat reabsorption (with fat grafting)
Implant-related complications (for prostheses)
Rare but serious risks: erectile dysfunction, scarring
Choosing an experienced surgeon and following strict aftercare minimizes complications.
