Male Enhancement Surgery Chicago
There are a plethora of penis enlargement products on the market, but many of the ones you see advertised are ineffective and can even harm your penis. Men looking for a way to increase the size of their penis should instead look to male enhancement surgery from a respected plastic surgeon like Dr. Parit Patel.
What is Male Enhancement Surgery?
Male enhancement surgery or penile enlargement surgery is the name given to a set of surgical procedures designed to increase the length and girth of the male penis. This is performed by releasing a suspensory ligament anchoring the penis to the pubic bone and removal of fat of the groin area to increase length and fat grafting to the penis to increase girth.
Interest in this procedure has increased over the years due to the high patient satisfaction, the immediate and permanent results, and safety associated with the procedure. Male enhancement surgery is a good option for anyone who is self-conscious about the size or shape of their penis or who would just like improvements to what they already have.
Are You A Candidate for Male Enhancement Surgery?
If you are someone who is in good health and has struggled with the size or shape of your penis after puberty, then you may be a good candidate for surgical intervention. Male genital anatomy comes in all shapes and sizes but some men would like improvements in the overall size or shape of their penis.
It is important that the anatomy and function of your penis are normal before undergoing male enhancement surgery. Male enhancement surgery does not improve the function of the penis in terms of obtaining an erection or ejaculation.
Candidates should be in generally good physical health, non-smokers, and without any medical conditions that may affect the healing process. Dr. Patel will talk to you about your medical history during consultation and it is important that you are open and honest to ensure the best possible results.
How Much Does Male Enhancement Surgery Cost?
The procedures involved in penile enlargement surgery are highly individualized according to each patient’s aesthetic goals and may include the surgical release of the suspensory ligament, liposuction or fat removal of the pubic area, and or fat grafting to the penis.
After analyzing your body and discussing the details of the procedure, Dr. Patel will develop a customized surgical plan to fit your specific needs. During this time, he will also talk to you about the cost of the procedure.

WHAT TO EXPECT FROM YOUR CONSULTATION
At the Plastic Surgery Clinic of Chicago, we understand that each patient’s aesthetic goals are unique. Improvement in the size or shape of your penis can lead to a healthy increase in self-esteem and confidence. We are committed to helping our patients achieve their aesthetic goals in a comfortable and private environment.
When you schedule a consultation with our practice, you will speak with a board-certified plastic surgeon that specializes in aesthetic surgery of the face, breast, and body. You and your plastic surgeon will review your medical history and a physical examination will be performed to ensure that you are a good candidate for male enhancement surgery. Your surgeon will suggest treatment options that are right for your body type and aesthetic goals. We will never perform any procedure unless we are certain that it is the best course of treatment for you.
HOW IS MALE ENHANCEMENT SURGERY PERFORMED?
For maximum privacy and comfort, all male enhancement surgeries are performed in our office surgical suite. A local anesthetic is administered to ensure comfort during the procedure. The process itself varies according to the individual needs of the patient. For penile lengthening, an incision is made at the base of the penis. This allows the surgeon to access the suspensory ligament for release from the pubic bone. If needed, excess fat is removed from the pubic region at the base of the penis to improve the overall length. To increase the girth of the penis, fat is removed from the abdomen or thighs and placed within the skin of the penis circumferentially, to increase the girth. The amount of fat injected is determined based on the aesthetic goals of the patient and the patient’s anatomy. Approximately 50% of the fat injected will resorb over time, therefore your surgeon will likely over inject the area in anticipation of some of the fat not remaining long term. Incision sites are hidden and not noticeable after surgery, your plastic surgeon will place the incisions as strategically as possible and attempt to conceal them within natural folds and contours of the body.
Male enhancement surgery can be performed in one stage. Some patients want additional fat injected to increase the girth of the penis further, which can be performed after 3-6 months. Your plastic surgeon will outline each stage and discuss the particular process for each individual procedure during your consultation.
RECOVERY AFTER MALE ENHANCEMENT SURGERY
The recovery period is different for each patient but in general, there is some discomfort for the first day after the procedure. Most patients only require over the counter pain medication to help ease the mild discomfort. The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis, so patients will be able to return home the day of surgery. Your plastic surgeon will give specific instructions for post-surgical care and specifically wound care. It is very important to follow all of these instructions to mitigate any potential risks that are associated with male enhancement surgery.
If further fat grafting is desired, this can be performed after the previous stage has fully healed. Results of each procedure are usually apparent right after surgery, but the full aesthetic results may not be visible until swelling and bruising subsides, which may take six to eight weeks.
POTENTIAL RISKS OF MALE ENHANCEMENT SURGERY
Any surgical procedure involves some potential risks; in general, the risks of the procedures involved in male enhancement surgery may include:
- Bleeding
- Infection
- Hematoma (blood clot)
- Changes in skin sensation
- Skin discoloration
- Scarring
At the Plastic Surgery Clinic of Chicago, we take every precaution to avoid potential complications by employing the safest and most innovative techniques. You can further reduce the potential for risk by carefully following all instructions from your plastic surgeon, both before and after a procedure.
WHAT DOES MALE ENHANCEMENT SURGERY COST?
The cost of male enhancement surgery depends on the specific procedures performed. The cost may further be affected by your location, your plastic surgeon, and the surgical center at which the procedure is performed. The cost range can be between $5,000 and $10,000 depending on the procedures performed. Be sure to speak to your plastic surgeon during your consultation about the cost of male enhancement surgery, including any payment options that may be available. Medical insurance rarely covers the cost for male enhancement surgery, since it is considered a cosmetic procedure.
SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION
If you are bothered by the size or shape of your penis, male enhancement surgery may be right for you. If you would like to know more about the procedure, or if you have questions about male enhancement surgery, schedule a consultation with the Plastic Surgery Clinic of Chicago.

Happy for this patient and her 6 week post-operative result from a breast augmentation. We placed a 400 cc gel implant, in a sub-muscular plane, and through a periareolar incision. Posted with permission.

6 month follow-up on a mastopexy augmentation case. The patient’s goals were to have her breasts lifted and the volume restored after pregnancy. No patient has perfectly symmetric breasts, which is normal. This case was challenging because of the asymmetries of the nipples; trying to lift, augment, and level the nipples all at the same time is difficult. Many variables to control but the post-operative photos demonstrate improved symmetry with all of the patient’s goals achieved. Posted with permission.

6 month follow-up on a challenging revision rhinoplasty case. The patient had 3 prior rhinoplasty surgeries by another surgeon and was not happy with the aesthetics of the dorsum or tip. In the pre-operative profile views, you can see a dorsal hump, under-projected tip, and abnormal alar-columellar relationship. On frontal view, there are asymmetries of the dorsal aesthetic lines and C-shape deviation of the nose. The goal of the surgery was to make the nose straighter, improve the dorsum and tip proportions, increase tip projection, and improve the alar-columellar relationship. Look closely at the post-operative profile views and how the tip, nostril and columella appear. Posted with permission.

Many ways to do a breast augmentation but the periareolar incision is a great option because the scar becomes imperceptible as the scar matures. This patient is 6 months out from a breast augmentation and the access incision we made was at the bottom border of the nipple areolar complex. It’s hard to see the scar at this point and the scar gets even better at the 12-18 month mark. Also, nipple sensation is unaffected after surgery. The other incisions that plastic surgeons use include an incision underneath the breast, at the breast fold, or the armpit. Each incision has their pros and cons but the periareolar is my preferred approach.

Challenging #gynecomastia case where the patient had grade 2/3 gynecomastia or male breasts with excess skin and significant asymmetries. The challenging part of this case relates to how to manage the excess skin and achieve a symmetric result. Do you remove the excess skin which will leave scars or try to contract the skin with minimally invasive techniques? In this case I performed liposuction, removed the breast tissue through a nipple incision, and performed #Renuvion to facilitate contraction of the skin. Posted with permission.

Nasal reconstruction for a patient who had a full thickness defect or hole of the left nostril after Mohs surgery to remove a basal cell carcinoma. The patient was missing all three layers of the nose and if you look closely, you can see into the nose and visualize the septum. We re-built the nose using tissue from his forehead or a #forehead flap. In the post-operative photos, you can see a nice reconstruction of the nostril with restored form and function. Additionally, the reconstructed side is symmetric with the unaffected side. Posted with permission.

3 month follow-up on this patient who wanted improvement in the projection of her chin and definition of the jawline. The patient has retrogenia or a small chin and underwent #chinaugmentation with a #genioplasty. In the pre-operative photos, you can see the chin is short and recessed and therefore I moved the chin forward and down. In the post-operative photos you can see improvement in the projection of the chin, a more defined jawline and neck, and a more balanced lower 1/3 of the face. This case highlights the advantages of a genioplasty versus a chin implant, a chin implant cannot lengthen and advance the chin to the same extent that a genioplasty can. Posted with permission.

Gym or surgery? This patient underwent hi-def liposuction or abdominal etching to improve the contour of the abdomen and to define the abdominal muscles. In the post-operative photos, the patient has natural washboard abs. Posted with permission.

Long term follow-up on a revision mastopexy augmentation case. The patient had a previous augmentation with gel implants and wanted the implants removed, breasts lifted, and re-augmented with fat but downsized. The patient underwent explantation of the implants, a capsulectomy, a breast lift, and fat transfer to augment the breasts. In the post-operative photos, you can see the breast/nipples are lifted to a more aesthetic position and we were able to maintain volume, although smaller, with fat transfer alone. This patient has a very natural result using only fat from her abdomen to restore volume. Posted with permission.

1 year follow-up on a primary rhinoplasty. This patient’s goals were a straighter profile, smaller and more refined tip, and a nose that was not drastically different. In the post-operative photos you can see the dorsal hump was removed and the nasal bones narrowed, the tip was refined, rotated, and projected more. Overall, still her nose but more refined and aesthetic. Posted with permission.

Early follow-up on a #facialmasculinization surgery for a trans male who wanted to improve the contour of the lower 1/3 of the face and neck. The patient underwent a sliding #genioplasty, custom #mandibularimplants, and #neckliposuction to achieve his goals. We used computer software to design the cuts in the bone and #3Dprinting to make the custom mandibular implants. Can you see the improved contour of the chin, jawline, and neck in the post-operative photos? Posted with permission.

1 year follow-up on a patient who wanted fuller and more symmetric breasts after having deflation with pregnancy. The patient is athletic and therefore it was very important to her to have a smaller augmentation that appeared natural. The patient underwent a breast augmentation with gel implants (250 cc) through a periareaolar incision and in a submuscular plane. Posted with permission.

This patient had a full thickness nasal defect of the left nostril after a skin cancer was removed by our Dermatology colleagues. Even though the wound is relatively small, this is a challenging reconstruction because all layers of the nose have to be rebuilt without making the reconstructed area bulky and noticeable. Also, you have to make the area strong enough so that the nostril doesn’t collapse as the area heals and scars. Posted with permission.

A 1 year follow-up on a patient who wanted a rhinoplasty to remove the dorsal hump and improve the aesthetics of her tip. In this case the dorsal hump was removed, the nose made straighter, the tip refined, and the tip rotated and projected more. Her new nose fits her face without overtly changing the ethnic features of her face. Posted with permission.

Male patient in his late 60’s who was able to turn back the clock after undergoing a #facelift, #neck lift, #blepharoplasty, and #fattransfer. Pay close attention to the “bags” underneath the eyes, the jawline, and neck. The scars have healed nicely and are inconspicuous even with short hair. In the post-operative photos, the patient has maintained his natural facial features and anatomy, but just looks like a more youthful version of himself. Posted with permission.
