Hyaluronic Acid and the Penis

HA and the penis

Hyaluronic acid fillers are a type of dermal filler commonly used in cosmetic procedures to add volume and fullness to the skin. The filler is injected into the targeted area, and is most often used to enhance facial features, such as the cheeks or lips, or to smooth out wrinkles and fine lines.

Medical practitioners, including Dr. Paul Perito, have pioneered the use of hyaluronic acid fillers for the enhancement of the girth (width) of the penis. The procedure involves injecting the filler into the shaft of the penis to increase its circumference. Advocates of the procedure point to its ability to provide a non-invasive alternative to surgical procedures such as penile silicone implants or fat grafts while avoiding many of the side effects associated with them. In addition to its safety, the girth enhancement procedure itself is fast and produces results over a short period of time. 

While effective as a filler, hyaluronic acid for penis girth enhancement is not a permanent solution; the effects of the filler can eventually wear off as it is absorbed into the body. This means that individuals who undergo the procedure may need to have repeat injections to maintain the desired results.

When cosmetic procedures are performed by unqualified professionals or beauticians, there are potential risks associated with the lack of medical expertise. These risks include infection, bleeding and/ or scarring. Individuals who are considering this procedure should consult with a qualified medical professional and carefully weigh the potential benefits and risks before making a decision.

The UroFill™ girth enhancement technique is backed up by the longest and most exhaustive clinical trials (over eight years) compared to its competitors and is the only technique of its kind solely performed by board-certified and expert urologic surgeons.

Wilson Cup

Dr. Paul Perito received the Wilson Cup at this year’s American Urological Association’s annual meeting.

The Wilson Cup is a major honor, named after the legendary Steven K. Wilson, MD and given yearly by peers to outstanding prosthetic urologists.

“It was bitter sweet for us at Perito Urology, our first conference without our brother, Dr. Alfredo Suarez-Sarmiento, Sr. but we know he was looking down on us smiling when the Wilson Cup, an award for lifetime achievement in prosthetic urology, was presented to me. Thank you to all my colleagues and peers for your consideration,” said Dr. Perito.

On Thursday, April 27, 2023, prior to the American Urological Association conference, The University of Chicago College of Medicine held the 1st International Symposium on Advanced Genitourinary Reconstruction and Urologic Prosthesis. Dr. Perito and his team were fortunate enough to be invited and take part in this wonderful symposium with some of the best urologists and surgeons from across the globe. Professors hailed from far and wide. Countries represented included Korea, Brazil, Italy, Spain, the USA, and many more. This CME- accredited course provided a comprehensive overview of the surgical management of complex genitourinary cases with an open forum discussion while live surgical cases were performed by international leaders in the field and some of U Chicago’s very own.

Dr. Perito and his colleagues instructed attendees on how to evaluate and manage surgical techniques of complex GU reconstructive cases; discuss the latest evidence-based surgical techniques based on research and best-practice standards and how to describe different urologic conditions, including erectile dysfunction, Peyronie’s disease, and male incontinence. There was also a section of the course dedicated to the creation and implementation of a successful cancer survivorship program. These workshops are essential for providers to improve their ability to provide optimal urological outcomes to their patients and their families.

“Omer Raheem and his colleagues knocked this one out of the park. Live streaming may be the most stressful way to run a meeting but it shows the foundation of their program.

If this is their first year I can’t wait to see number three and number five. Keep up the great work.” – Dr. Perito

3/31/23-4/1/23

Dr. Perito attended last month’s Advanced Surgical Course along with 18 other prosthetic surgeons from around the country. The course was created with the goal to expand the skillsets of the attendees in Men’s Health procedures.

The first day featured a dinner and presentations of Case Studies with various inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) scenarios. Attending surgeons were able to engage in discussions with the elite faculty of prosthetic urologists.

The course resumed the following day at the Center for Advanced Learning and Simulation (USF CAMLS) with comprehensive didactic presentations covering prosthetics for issues relating to men’s sexual health and stress urinary incontinence. The second half of the course was dedicated to a hands-on surgical opportunity focusing on surgical techniques with six cadaver lab stations of infrapubic, penoscrotal, reservoir, two complication stations, and male sling.

The course, sponsored by Coloplast was a massive success and presented attendees with a great opportunity to expand their prosthetic skillsets.
