Penis Enlargement Surgery Scars: What to Expect & How They Heal

A very common question patients ask is:
“Will I have scars after penis enlargement surgery?”

The good news is that both length surgery and girth surgery leave minimal, discreet scarring — and in many cases, the scars are barely noticeable once healed.

Here’s what you can expect based on the type of surgery you choose.

🔹 Scarring After Penis Length Surgery

Length surgery involves the release of the suspensory ligament through a small incision located:

• In the pubic area, at the junction where the penis meets the lower abdomen.

What the scar looks like:

• A thin, horizontal or slightly curved line

• Typically 2–3cm in length

• Hidden in natural pubic folds

• Fades significantly over several months

With proper care:

• The scar becomes flat and pale

• After 6–12 months many patients say it is hardly noticeable

• Trimming or shaving the pubic area can make it less visible

🔹 Scarring After Penis Girth Enlargement (Fat Transfer)

Fat transfer girth enlargement involves:

• Tiny access points for the microcannula

• Usually located around the base of the penis

These entry points are so small that they often heal without any visible scars.

What the scars look like:

• Pinpoint-sized marks

• Typically invisible after a few weeks

• No sutures usually required

🔹 How to Minimise Scarring

Your Urologist will give you clear instructions, but general guidelines include:

• Avoid stretching or tension on the incision

• Avoid smoking (slows wound healing)

• Keep the area clean and dry

• Avoid sexual activity for six weeks

• Consider silicone scar gel after initial healing

🔹 Will People Be Able to See My Scars?

In almost all cases, the scars are discreet and easily hidden.
Even intimate partners rarely notice once healing is complete.

Final Thoughts

Penis enlargement surgery scars are usually minimal, well-hidden, and quick to heal. With correct care and expert surgical technique, they are rarely a concern.

If you want long-term girth enhancement or flaccid length improvement with minimal visible signs, penis enlargement surgery remains a strong option.
