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.
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.
A thin, horizontal or slightly curved line
Typically 2–3cm in length
Hidden in natural pubic folds
Fades significantly over several months
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
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.
Pinpoint-sized marks
Typically invisible after a few weeks
No sutures usually required
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

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