How to Get a Bigger Penis: Permanent & Non-Surgical Options

Many men search for ways to increase penis size. Whether for personal confidence or sexual satisfaction, understanding your options is key. At Moorgate Andrology, we provide expert guidance on both permanent surgery and non-surgical fillers, helping men make informed, safe choices.

Why Penis Size Varies

Penis size differs between men due to genetics, age, and health factors. Most men seeking enlargement already fall within a normal range, but are motivated by personal perception or partner satisfaction. Understanding what’s realistic is crucial:

  • Average flaccid length: ~3.6 inches

  • Average erect length: ~5.2 inches

  • Average girth: 4–5 inches

Setting realistic expectations helps choose the right method: temporary enhancement with fillers or permanent changes with surgery.

Non-Surgical Options: Penis Fillers

Penis fillers are a minimally invasive way to increase girth.

What They Are

  • Hyaluronic acid fillers are a common, safe, and reversible option.

  • Designed primarily to increase girth, with minimal effect on length.

Recovery

  • Quick recovery (usually under 1 week)

  • Swelling and minor bruising are normal

  • Filler fully settles by week 2–3

Longevity

  • Results last 12–24 months, depends on the filler you choose and your bodys ability to retain it

  • Maintenance top-ups extend duration. These are a temporary option.

  • Reversible if needed

Benefits

  • Non-surgical and low-risk

  • Quick results and minimal downtime

  • Ideal for men who want to try enhancement before surgery

 

Permanent Options: Penis Enlargement Surgery

For lasting results, penis enlargement surgery is the only permanent solution.

Techniques

  • Ligament release for length

  • Fat transfer using your pure fat cells for girth

  • Combination procedures for both length and thickness is the most common option

Recovery

  • More downtime than fillers (2–6 weeks)

  • Swelling, bruising, and temporary sensitivity are common

  • Gradual return to sexual activity as per doctor’s instructions, usually six weeks

Benefits

  • Significant and permanent gains in length and girth

  • Tailored to each patient’s anatomy

  • Long-term satisfaction and confidence

 

Recovery Timeline: Fillers vs Surgery
