Penis Fillers vs Fat Transfer. Which Lasts Longer?. Moorgate Andrology

When it comes to penis enlargement, increasing girth is often just as important to men as increasing length. Two of the most popular ways to achieve this are penis fillers and fat transfer.
While both can add noticeable thickness to the penis, they differ in technique, longevity, and the kind of results they produce.

At Moorgate Andrology, we perform both procedures, so patients receive honest, medically guided advice on which option suits their goals best.

Penis Fillers — The Non-Surgical Option

What it involves:
Penis fillers are injections of hyaluronic acid (HA) — a smooth gel used safely for years in facial aesthetics. The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic and typically takes less than one hour.

Benefits:

• Immediate results

• No surgery or downtime

• Adjustable volume (top-ups possible)

• Reversible (HA can be dissolved if needed)

How long it lasts:
Hyaluronic acid fillers generally last 12 to 24 months, depending on metabolism and product choice. At Moorgate Andrology, we use only premium CE-marked fillers suitable for intimate use.

Important note:
Some clinics use semi-permanent fillers such as PMMA or PLLA — these cannot be dissolved and carry a higher risk of lumps or irregularities.
Our Urologists do not recommend these products for penile use.

Fat Transfer — The Natural Enhancement

What it involves:
Fat transfer (also known as lipofilling) is a minor surgical procedure. Fat is harvested from another area of your body — often the abdomen or flanks — purified, and then injected into the penis shaft to enhance girth.

Benefits:

• Uses your own natural tissue

• Permanent fat survival after initial healing

• Can be combined with ligament release surgery for length and girth enhancement

How long it lasts:
Around 50–70% of the injected fat usually survives long term. Some patients choose a second session for maximum volume. The results are soft and natural-looking.

 Comparing the Two — Fillers vs Fat Transfer

 Which Option Lasts Longer?

If longevity is your priority, fat transfer generally provides more permanent results because the surviving fat becomes part of your natural tissue.
However, penis fillers are ideal if you prefer a reversible, less invasive option or want to “test” the look and feel before committing to surgery.

At Moorgate Andrology, we guide you through both choices to ensure the safest and most natural outcome possible — led exclusively by Consultant Urologists.
