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. We will be happy to speak with you and perform an evaluation to see if male enhancement surgery is the best fit for you and your aesthetic goals.

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.

We had a great time hosting the 60th Annual Midwestern Association of Plastic Surgeons (MAPS) meeting in Chicago this past weekend, where I finished my tenure as president. We had expert panels and speakers from around the country and over a hundred abstract presentations from fellows, residents, and medical students. We also had the largest overall attendance in recent memory. The MAPS organization is great hands and I am excited about its future!

#Primaryrhinoplasty to fix the dorsal hump, droopy tip, and crooked nose. In the post-operative photos, the patient has a nice dorsal profile on side view, the tip has been lifted, and the nose is straight. To evaluate how straight the nose is, look at the dorsal aesthetic lines on bird’s eye view and follow the two light reflexes along the dorsum. Posted with permission.

Relatively small surgeries can yield big changes. This patient wanted to improve the contour of her chin and the overall profile of her face. The patient’s lower 1/3 of the face and chin were short and set back. Additionally, the patient had asymmetries of the chin and jawline that she wanted improved. The patient underwent a #slidinggenioplasty to achieve these goals where the chin was cut and mobilized forward and downward. In the post-operative photos, you can see a more aesthetic and balanced facial profile. The advantages of a #genioplasty over a #chinimplant are that the chin can be moved in numerous planes, the advancement can be more significant, and asymmetries can be addressed.

This patient had a bilateral constricted ear deformity where the top portion of the ear folds over the rest of the ear. In this deformity, the ear appears shorter in height and there are abnormalities of the outer and inner folds of the ear. In the postoperative photos you can visualize the ear is longer in height, the helical rim or outer portion of the ear is lifted up and the antihelical fold or inner portion of the ear is more defined.

Challenging #breastaugmentation case where the patient had asymmetries of the breasts in terms of size, shape, and position on the chest. The patient underwent a breast augmentation with #gelimplants with a larger size in the left breast to balance the size difference. The left breast fold was also lowered to match the fold level of the right. Posted with permission.

Plastic surgery can sometimes be subtle or dramatic. In this case, this patient’s outcome was life altering after a lipoabdominoplasty or tummy tuck. The patient can now do all of the things in life that she was limited in doing due to her body habitus. Posted with permission.

Plastic surgeons pioneered microsurgery and free flaps nearly 50 years ago. The surgery involves harvesting tissue with its arteries and veins and transplanting it to another part of the body. The arteries and veins are re-attached at the new site using a microscope and sutures smaller than human hair. In this case, this patient was in a bad car accident where he had an open wound of the leg with exposed and fractured bone. Before microsurgery was invented, many of these patients would have their limb amputated. To salvage his leg, I took a muscle from his thigh and transplanted it to the lower leg to cover the exposed bone after Ortho fixed the broken bone. As you can see in the video, he is on his way to a full recovery and can walk now. After more physical therapy, he will be able to walk without a walker. Posted with permission.

A former collegiate wrestler who developed moderate cauliflower ear of the left that resulted in a thick and more protruding ear. A cauliflower ear forms after blunt trauma to the ear where a blood clot develops. If left untreated, the ear cartilage becomes thick and hard, which makes these cases difficult to treat. After surgery, the patient now reports feeling more confident when he looks in the mirror and when he is communicating with people in social settings. Posted with permission.

Maintaining masculinity and core features without major alterations were the plan for this patient who underwent a #revisionrhinoplasty. The patient reports that when people see him now after surgery, the comments he receives are along the lines of “you look well rested or more handsome” and not “did you have a rhinoplasty or you look completely different”. Exactly what we like to hear. Posted with permission.

Midterm follow-up on this lovely #rhinoplasty patient who wanted nasal surgery to improve her nasal breathing but also to improve the aesthetics of the nose. Fixing the crooked nose is a challenge in rhinoplasty and on the bird’s eye view, you can visualize improvement in the dorsal aesthetic lines. Dorsal aesthetic lines are two curvilinear light reflex lines that travel from the inner eyebrow to the tip of the nose on frontal view. On profile view you can see a nice profile with the dorsal hump removed. Posted with permission.

Happy for this mother of 2 who wanted to improve the contour and aesthetics of her abdomen and waist with an #abdominoplasty or #tummy tuck. After children, women can experience rectus diastasis or separation of the abdominal muscles as the uterus expands. During a tummy tuck, plastic surgeons will address this separation by stitching the muscles back together. In the post-operative photos you can visualize the muscles re-positioned more centrally. Additionally, we will perform liposuction, remove excess abdominal skin and re-set the belly button. Posted with permission.
