Does Penile Girth Enlargement via HA Injection Help with Erectile Dysfunction?

Erectile Dysfunction (ED) affects millions of men, with one study predicting it will affect 320 million men worldwide by 2025. Hundreds of thousands of men in Miami and Miami-Dade County will experience ED at some point in their lives. 

But can a penis enlargement procedure improve the symptoms of erectile dysfunction?

Currently there are several non-surgical treatment options available from ED such as pills like Cialis, as well as surgical options such as getting a penile implant. 

But many men are now exploring new, alternative treatments like penile enhancement that addresses erectile dysfunction by increasing self-esteem and improving blood flow while also enhancing sexual pleasure at the same time.

One of the most popular emerging procedures gaining attention is penis girth enlargement using hyaluronic acid (HA) injections into the penis. 

But can girth enlargement via penile fillers really help improve erectile dysfunction?

The before and after results can be striking. Read on to learn more…

Understanding Penile Fillers and Girth Enlargement

Penile filler injection procedures, such as the UroFill® procedure performed at the Perito Clinic in Miami, involve the injection of hyaluronic acid (HA) into the penile shaft. HA is a naturally occurring substance in the body, known for its ability to retain fluids and add volume. 

In the UroFill® treatment, injections are performed under a local anesthetic into select areas of the penis. The procedure causes no pain, little discomfort and takes only 10 – 20 minutes to perform. These HA injections greatly increase the girth of the penis, from .5 inches to 1.5 inches of girth, leading to a fuller, more robust appearance.

While there are several procedures available on the market today,  only UroFill® is patented. 

The UroFill® procedure has been performed extensively at Perito Clinic in Miami, where over 3,000 girth enlargement procedures have been performed since 2014. The results have shown not only aesthetic improvements and sexual performance benefits but also potential benefits in managing erectile dysfunction.

How Can Girth Enlargement Help with Erectile Dysfunction?

The primary goal of girth enlargement procedures is to enhance the size of the penis, but anecdotal evidence suggests that these injections might also contribute to improvements in erectile function. 

Mechanisms Behind the Improvement

There are a few possible explanations for why girth enlargement might help with ED:

1. Increased Blood Flow: The injection of hyaluronic acid can potentially improve blood flow to penile tissue, making it easier for men to achieve and maintain an erection. Better blood flow is crucial for erectile function, and by increasing penile volume, there may be a slight improvement in vascular function.

2. Improved Confidence and Psychological Impact: Many men with ED experience anxiety and stress related to their condition. Some of this tension and anxiety is work related or relationship related, but studies show that even men with normal size penises suffer from a feeling of inadequacy. 

The improvement in penile size gained from the UroFill® enlargement treatment can lead to increased confidence, which may reduce performance anxiety and positively impact erectile function. It’s a simple fact: having a noticeably larger penis makes a man feel better about himself and the way he will be perceived by his sex partner. 

3. Penile Tissue Expansion: The fillers may exert pressure on penile tissue, potentially stimulating mild expansion. This could, in theory, help some men achieve a more robust erection.

Clinical Evidence and Expert Opinions

While anecdotal evidence from clinics like Perito’s supports the idea that girth enhancement may benefit ED, it’s important to examine what national medical experts and research say.

According to a study published in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI), the relationship between penile girth enhancement and erectile function is still under investigation. The study highlights that while penile fillers are primarily used for cosmetic purposes, there may be secondary benefits related to ED. However, more rigorous clinical trials are needed to establish a definitive link.

The Mayo Clinic also notes that while penile enlargement procedures, including those using HA fillers, are available, they are often considered elective and primarily focus on aesthetics rather than directly addressing ED. The consensus among experts is that while there may be some benefit, these procedures should not replace conventional ED treatments like oral medications, vacuum erection devices, or penile implants.

Real-World Results from Perito Clinic

Despite the need for more clinical research, the real-world experience at Perito Clinic provides compelling anecdotal evidence. The clinic’s extensive experience with over 3,000 procedures has shown that many men report improved erectile function following girth injections. While this improvement may not be solely due to the procedure, the correlation between increased penile girth and enhanced erections is difficult to ignore.

Conclusion

While the primary purpose of penile girth enlargement using HA filler injections is cosmetic, there is growing interest in its potential to help with erectile dysfunction. 

Men’s Clinics like Perito Clinic in Miami have observed strong anecdotal evidence suggesting that these procedures can offer benefits beyond aesthetics, potentially improving erectile function for some men. 

It’s crucial for men considering this option to consult with a qualified urologist such as Miami’s Paul Perito, MD to discuss their specific situation and to understand that while girth enhancement may help with ED, it is not a replacement for traditional medical treatments. 

So while more research is needed to establish a definitive and unequivocal link, for now, penis  filler injections like those used in the UroFill® procedure offer a very promising option for men looking to enhance both their size and sexual performance as well as improve their erectile function.
