With more men in the UK turning to penis fillers as a non-surgical way to increase girth and confidence, there’s also been a rise in myths and misinformation. At Moorgate Andrology, we believe in giving men the facts so they can make informed decisions about their treatment. In this blog, we separate the myths from reality when it comes to penis fillers. There is a lot is misinformation out there which only seems to be getting worse, so we thought it was about time to share the facts
We brought penis fillers to the United Kingdom about 12 years ago now. We have learned so much since we started. We have refined injection techniques to improve results, we have tried different fillers and modified aftercare too. In the last decade we have perfected technique and the way in which we have done so is now adopted by most of our competitors.
Fact: Penis fillers are a proven way to add girth. Using hyaluronic acid (HA) dermal fillers — the same safe materials used in facial aesthetics — results are immediate and can increase girth by 0.5–2 inches, depending on the volume used. Many patients notice improved appearance and confidence right away. So they do work to add volume, just in the same way that they add volume to the face , especially in areas such as the cheeks. It is this same filler that we use in the penis. not all hyaluronic acid fillers are the same though. Its very important to choose a volumising
Fact: When performed by experienced urologists and surgeons, penis fillers provide natural, proportional results. At Moorgate Andrology, we tailor the procedure to each patient’s anatomy, ensuring the results enhance rather than distort appearance. Patients often report their partners cannot tell a procedure has been performed. The secret is to have the optimised amount for your penis. This means considering the length of your penis. If your penis is shorter than the average then it will be best to focus on more modest amounts, perhaps 10 to 15ml, but not much more. If too much filler is added it can look obvious that something has been done. At Moorgate Andrology we do not inject more than 20ml in one session. Numbers over 20ml start to look very fake , whatever the length of the penis.
Fact: Penis fillers typically last 12–24 months. Over time, the body naturally breaks down the hyaluronic acid. This means men can choose to maintain results with top-up treatments or allow the effects to fade if they prefer. This flexibility is a key reason why many choose fillers over surgery. About 40% of patients who start with penis filer eventually move on to penis enlargement surgery. This is usually because they get fed up of doing the top up treatments. in other cases they have more confidence to go for the permanent option and maximum gains. There is no doubt that these treatments are very convenient. You don't need any time off work and the recovery is fast, so they tick a lot of boxes for many men. If you don't mind the top up treatments and realise that you will need to spend more to maintain the results, then go for it.
Fact: Hyaluronic acid fillers are widely used in cosmetic medicine with an excellent safety record. At Moorgate Andrology, all treatments are performed in a medical setting by trained specialist Urologists. While mild swelling or bruising can occur, serious complications are rare when carried out by professionals. There is a growing trend now of penis fillers being performed by cosmetic practitioners. Whilst some may well have the skills to inject the penis safely, it should be obvious that injecting the penis is not the same as injecting the face. The penis is a complicated structure and you should choose your Doctor very carefully. All treatments carry risks, even in the best hands, but by choosing a qualified Urologist you will have taken a good first step forward to a safe and successful treatment
Fact: Surgery can provide permanent change, but it is more invasive, costly, and requires longer recovery. For many men, fillers are the ideal first step: affordable (starting under £1,000), minimally invasive, and reversible. Some patients later move on to surgical options, while others maintain fillers long-term. Most patients ask me " which is better surgery or fillers "?. I always answer the same, that the best treatment is the one that fits your lifestyle, budget and expectations. We have many patients who would not change from filler, and have many patients who choose esurgeyr because they cannot see the point in returning and spending more money on repeat treatments. In the modern world most guys have very little time to spare and for this group of guys the fillers tick all the boxes.
