Penis Enlargement Surgery vs. Penis Fillers:

Which Option Is Right for You?

Deciding between penis enlargement surgery and non-surgical penis fillers can feel confusing. At Moorgate Andrology, we guide patients through the differences, helping you choose the safest, most effective option for your goals.

 

If you're considering penis enhancement, your primary goal should be results you can trust. At Moorgate Andrology, we firmly believe that surgery is the superior option for men seeking meaningful, permanent change.

While penis filler injections can offer temporary girth improvements, they can’t match the long-term reliability, control, and impact that surgery delivers. This page explains the differences — and why surgery should be your first consideration.”

What is Penis Enlargement Surgery?

Penis enlargement surgery
is a medical procedure designed to increase length, girth, or both. Common surgical methods include:

 

  • Ligament Release (Phalloplasty): Releases the suspensory ligament to increase visible length.

  •  
  • Fat Transfer

  •  
  •  Adds purified fat cells to the penis shaft for greater girth.

 

 

 

Benefits of Surgery

Penis enlargement surgery is a medical procedure designed to increase length, girth, or both. These benefits also apply in cases of buried penis, hidden penis or micro penis conditions

This is because in these cases penis filler injections may not give you the results that you want. If your penis is much shorter than the average with additional issues of retraction, then surgery would be the better option. Penis filler may add some girth , but not sufficient projection of your penis.

Common surgical methods include:

  • Ligament Release (Phalloplasty)

  •  
  • Permanent lengthening of the flaccid penis by 1 to 2 inchses

  •  
  • Fat Transfer

  •  
  •  Adds purified fat to the penis shaft for greater girth.

  •  

Advantages:

  • Long-lasting or permanent results

  • Significant improvement in size

  •  

Considerations

  • Requires general anaesthesia

  • Full Recovery takes 6 weeks

  • Risks associated with surgery

 

Costs

Lengthening or thickening only: £6,995

Penis Filler

What Are Penis Fillers?

Benefits of Fillers (Secondary/Support Use Only)


• Quick, walk-in procedure for minor girth enhancement.
• Results appear immediately.
• Can be adjusted or topped up — useful as a trial or refinement tool.

 

Key Limitations (Why Surgery Leads)

Temporary effect: Results fade over 12–24 months, requiring repeat sessions.
No lengthening: Fillers cannot increase the length — only girth.
Cumulative cost: Over years, repeated filler treatments always exceed the one-time investment of surgery.
Less predictable: Filler results can vary based on tissue and technique, especially for more significant gains.

Frequently Asked Questions. Penis enlargement surgery vs penis fillers

There is no best option. Ask yourself if you want permanent results or are you happy coming back for repeat treatments over time ?. Filler is cheaper initially , but more expensive over time. If you want the penis made longer then penis enlargement surgery is best because penis fillers only really increase penis girth

No. Penis fillers using hyaluronic acid absorb slowly over time and need top up treatments to maintain results. Penis girth fat transfer on the other hand is considered the permanent way to increase penis girth 

Penis enlargement surgery is considered permanent. The lengthening surgery is a one time event. As you age you could have more fat transferred for a girth top up if you wish. Most patients have the surgery once

The lengthening surgery increases the flaccid penis length by one to two inches in nearly all cases.

The more filler that is injected the thicker the penis will be. The longer your penis is the more filler it will take. Most men have 10 to 15 ml first time. This typically increases the penis girth by one to four centimeters on average

 A penis girth fat transfer will increase flaccid and erect girth by around one inch, flaccid and on erection. Some patients may get a little more or a little less, but most get at least one inch more. The fat is also thicker than filelr gso the gains are more substantial in most cases.

the results from penis enlargement surgery will last longer than penis filler. The results from surgery are considered permanent whilst the results from filler tend to last between one and two years, depending on the filler chosen

For both length and girth surgery the cost is £ 8495. If you would like just ligament release surgery or girth fat transfer surgery that is slightly cheaper at £ 6995

Penis fillers start from £ 1290 based on a typical 10ml first treatment. 

The combination of ligament release and girth fat transfer makes the penis the biggest possible. Penis filler can add good girth but they are not really lengthening treatments. Also, fat is much thicker than hyaluronic acid filler. For a more substantial increase in penis size choose a fat transfer
