Cosmetic Penile Enhancement Surgery
Dr. Solomon is an exceptional surgeon and a true professional. From the initial consultation through surgery and post-op follow-ups, he was clear, thoughtful, and incredibly attentive. He took the time to walk me through every detail of the procedure and made sure I felt fully comfortable going into surgery.
What is Penile Enhancement Surgery?
Penile enhancement surgery encompasses a range of specialized surgical techniques designed to increase penile length, girth, or both — offering measurable, lasting results under the care of a qualified plastic surgeon.
Procedure Overview
Unlike non-surgical products — creams, pills, and devices — that lack supporting clinical data, surgical enhancement provides real, measurable results. Dr. Mark P. Solomon, M.D., F.A.C.S., is one of the first plastic surgeons in the world to perform penile enhancement procedures and has refined his techniques over more than three decades of practice.
His approach is individualized: every procedure is tailored to the patient’s anatomy, goals, and medical history. During your consultation, Dr. Solomon will evaluate your situation honestly and recommend only the approach most likely to achieve the outcome you are looking for.
Double board-certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and the American Board of Surgery. Fellow of the American College of Surgeons (FACS). Over 35 years of specialized experience in male enhancement surgery.
Length Enhancement
Penile lengthening involves releasing the suspensory ligament that attaches the penis to the pubic bone. This allows a portion of the penile shaft that is normally concealed within the body to extend outward.
Patients can typically expect an increase of one to two inches in flaccid length. Additional procedures — including pubic skin lifting, shaft skin stabilization, and targeted liposuction of the pubic pad — may be performed to maximize the visible result.
Individual results vary based on anatomy and health factors.
Girth Enhancement
Dr. Solomon uses dermal graft material to add penile girth, providing a natural feel and long-lasting outcome. He is the first surgeon in the United States to offer patients the option of using their own scrotal tissue as a graft to wrap around the penile shaft for girth augmentation.
Patients can typically expect approximately a 30% increase in girth. Individual results vary based on anatomy and the technique selected.
First in the US: Dr. Solomon was the first surgeon in the United States to offer scrotal tissue graft for penile girth augmentation — an innovative technique that uses the patient’s own tissue.
Additional Procedures
Depending on the patient’s needs, penile enhancement may be combined with:
Pubic Surgery
Skin lifting, shaft stabilization, and liposuction to improve the visible proportion of the penis.
Scrotal Surgery
Removal of webbing between the scrotum and penile shaft to improve appearance and function.
Revision Surgery
Correction of unsatisfactory outcomes from prior procedures performed by other surgeons, including complications from fat grafts, injectable fillers, allografts, or implants.
A personal consultation with Dr. Solomon is required to determine which procedures are appropriate for your individual needs and goals.
Benefits & Risks of Penile Enhancement Surgery
As with any surgical procedure, penile enhancement surgery involves both potential benefits and risks. Dr. Solomon believes that informed patients make the best decisions. Below is an overview of what surgery can offer and what you should consider before proceeding.
Benefits
- Increased length and girth — Measurable improvement in both flaccid length (typically 1–2 inches) and girth (approximately 30%), tailored to individual anatomy
- Improved confidence — Many patients report a meaningful improvement in self-esteem and body image following surgery
- Natural look and feel — Dr. Solomon's graft-based techniques are designed to produce results that look and feel natural
- Correction of prior procedures — For revision patients, surgery can address complications such as asymmetry, nodularity, or loss of function from previous enhancement attempts
- Comprehensive approach — Pubic pad reduction, scrotal surgery, and shaft stabilization can be combined for a more complete outcome
- Experienced specialist — Over 35 years of focused experience in male enhancement surgery, with expertise that few surgeons worldwide can match
Risks & Considerations
- Surgical risks — As with any surgery, there is a risk of infection, bleeding, adverse reaction to anesthesia, and delayed wound healing
- Scarring — Incisions are placed to minimize visible scarring, but individual healing and scar formation vary
- Temporary numbness or sensitivity changes — Some patients experience temporary changes in sensation following surgery; this typically resolves over weeks to months
- Swelling and bruising — Post-operative swelling is expected and can take several months to fully resolve; final results are not immediately visible
- Asymmetry or irregularity — While rare with Dr. Solomon's techniques, minor asymmetry or contour irregularity may occur and can sometimes require a secondary procedure
- Recovery commitment — Full recovery requires adherence to activity restrictions (typically 4+ weeks) and follow-up appointments
Individual results vary. All surgical procedures carry inherent risks. A personal consultation with Dr. Solomon is required to determine whether a procedure is appropriate for your goals and to discuss your specific risk profile.
A special thanks to Dr. Solomon and his staff for putting up with my endless questions both before and after surgery. I just had my post op photos taken and am even more pleased than I thought when comparing with my before photos. I recommend Dr. Solomon to anyone looking for a talented surgeon who will be completely honest with you and that is there for you every step of the way!! Thank you, Dr. Solomon!!
Am I a Candidate for Penile Enhancement Surgery?
Candidacy for penile enhancement surgery is determined during a private consultation with Dr. Solomon. In general, good candidates include men who:
- Are in good overall health and are medically cleared for surgery
- Have realistic expectations about what surgery can achieve
- Feel self-conscious about penile size and wish to improve their confidence
- Want to enhance their partner's experience and their own satisfaction
- Have experienced unsatisfactory results from a prior enhancement procedure performed by another surgeon
- Are committed to following pre- and post-operative care instructions
During your consultation, Dr. Solomon will evaluate your anatomy, discuss your goals honestly, and recommend the approach most likely to achieve the outcome you are looking for. Not every patient is a candidate for every technique, and Dr. Solomon will tell you the truth about what is achievable for your specific situation.
Recovery & What to Expect
Understanding the recovery process helps patients plan ahead and set realistic expectations.
Recovery Starts with Rest
Patients should plan to be off their feet for most of the first week following surgery. Swelling and bruising are normal and expected. Dr. Solomon provides detailed post-operative instructions and is available to address any concerns during this period.
Light Activity & Early Healing Phase
Most men are able to return to desk work and light daily activities within the first two weeks. Swelling continues to improve gradually.
Returning to Exercise and Intimacy
Strenuous activities — including exercise and sexual activity — are typically restricted for at least four weeks following surgery. Dr. Solomon will clear you for full activity based on your individual healing progress.
Settling Into Your New Normal
Final results become apparent as swelling fully resolves, which may take several months. Dr. Solomon schedules follow-up appointments to monitor your progress and ensure your recovery is on track.
Recovery timelines are general guidelines. Individual healing varies based on the procedure performed, overall health, and adherence to post-operative instructions.
Real Results. Real Patients
Every outcome reflects a customized surgical plan developed specifically for that patient, which is why results can be so dramatic. We are proud to share these images with the permission of the patients themselves, who hope their experience will give others the courage to seek the care they deserve.
