Pubic liposuction is a surgical fat removal method frequently preferred in the treatment of buried penis. This procedure removes excess fat tissue in the pubic area, which causes the buried appearance, using suction and aspiration techniques. The goal is to increase the anatomical visibility of the penis and permanently correct the buried penis appearance by eliminating subcutaneous fat pads.
Pubic liposuction is one of the most effective solution options for cases where the penis appears shortened due to excessive weight gain, age-related fat accumulation, or naturally excessive anatomical tissue.
How Is Pubic Liposuction Performed?
The surgery is performed under local or spinal anesthesia in a sterile surgical setting (operating room). A small incision is made in the pubic area, and fat tissue is carefully aspirated using thin cannulas. The operation typically lasts 30–45 minutes. As the subcutaneous fat layer is reduced, the base of the penis becomes more visible, eliminating the buried penis appearance. Patients are usually discharged the same day and can return to social activities within a few days.
Advantages of Pubic Liposuction:
- Provides permanent results; the likelihood of fat cells regenerating is low.
- Significantly enhances the external visibility of the penis.
- Ensures surgical precision and aesthetic control in buried penis treatment.
- Can be combined with other procedures (e.g., Mini Monsplasty or Penopubic Anchoring) for enhanced aesthetic results.
- Positively impacts sexual function and self-confidence.
Recovery and Results After Pubic Liposuction:
Mild swelling and bruising may occur in the treated area but usually resolve completely within 7–10 days. Patients are typically advised to wear a compression garment for 6–8 weeks to maintain the new shape of the pubic region. Initial results are noticeable within the first weeks, and the final appearance stabilizes by the second month.
Final Notes:
Pubic liposuction is one of the safest surgical procedures for treating buried penis and improving its aesthetic appearance. By targeting anatomical fat deposits at the base of the penis, this procedure provides both functional and visual improvements when performed by experienced urologists.
