Cosmetic Urology

What is cosmetic urology?

Cosmetic urology is a branch of urology care focused on improving the aesthetic appearance of a man. This type of treatment combines aspects of urology with plastic surgery, improving the appearance and functionality of your genitalia.

Over the last two decades, the field of cosmetic urology has grown significantly. Cutting edge tools and surgical techniques make it not only possible, but easy, to address common problems like erectile dysfunction, Peyronie’s disease, and perceived penile inadequacy.

Am I a candidate for cosmetic urology?

Any man who’s unhappy with the appearance of his penis, or who is struggling with sexual health problems like erectile dysfunction or Peyronie’s disease, can benefit from cosmetic urology. 

The type of treatment you’ll most benefit from depends on your medical history, physical health, and goals for treatment. Following an exam and thorough discussion, Dr. Blick can make recommendations that align with your individual needs. 

What types of cosmetic urology do you offer?

Dr. Blick offers a full suite of cosmetic urology treatments, including:

Penile implants

You might benefit from penile implants if you have a severe case of erectile dysfunction. If your body doesn’t respond to more conservative treatments like prescription medications or lifestyle changes, a penile implant will help. Penile implants allow you to have an erection for as long as you want, whenever you want. The penis remains hard even upon ejaculation. Simply, men who receive penile implants are sexually enhanced and highly satisfied.

Treatment of Peyronie’s disease

If you have Peyronie’s disease, you probably feel self-conscious about the shape and physical appearance of your penis. Cosmetic urology can minimize visible scarring and improve the curvature of your penis when erect. Dr. Blick can also recommend treatments that limit pain and discomfort during sex. Dr. Blick specializes in Xiaflex™ injections,  curvature correction surgery, and low intense shockwave therapy.

Penile augmentation

If you avoid sexual intimacy due to the length or width of your penis, you may want to consider penile augmentation with Penuma®. Penuma® is a silicone implant designed to make your penis longer and wider, it comes in three different sizes: large, extra-large, and extra-extra-large.

Is cosmetic urology safe?

Cosmetic urology is safe and well-tolerated, but like any surgical operation, there are inherent risks. To lower your risk of complications, make sure to follow Dr. Blick’s recovery instructions carefully. Take time off work to rest, take your medications as prescribed, and attend all of your follow up appointments. The more invested you are in aftercare, the less likely you are to experience an infection or other complications
