What Is A Micropenis?
Micropenis is a condition where the penis is significantly shorter than average, often affecting confidence, sexual function, and psychological well-being. At Moorgate Andrology, our expert surgeons offer safe, effective surgical correction in the UK, helping men restore both function and self-esteem.
For men seeking additional length or girth enhancement alongside correction, see our Penis Enlargement Surgery page.
A micropenis is typically defined as a penis measuring less than 7 cm in stretched length in adulthood. Causes include:
-
Hormonal deficiencies during development
-
Genetic or congenital conditions
-
Rare anatomical anomalies
Symptoms may include:
-
Reduced sexual confidence
-
Difficulty with intercourse
-
Psychological distress
Early assessment by a specialist urologist ensures the best surgical outcomes and realistic expectations.
Surgical Options : What's Involved
Micropenis surgery is designed to increase visible length and restore natural function. Techniques may include:
-
Ligament release: Freeing the suspensory ligament to increase apparent length
-
Girth enhancement: Optional dermal filler or fat transfer for a fuller appearance
-
Skin adjustment: Ensuring the shaft is fully exposed and functional
All procedures are carried out in CQC-registered UK facilities by experienced surgeons.
Patients interested in both micropenis correction and overall enhancement can discuss combined penis enlargement surgery during consultation.
