Penis fillers are not only on the rise, but multiple cosmetic surgeons say it's their most popular procedure.
, both hyaluronic acid and biostimulatory fillers can be used for this procedure — albeit off-label. As of now, the Food and Drug Administration has not approved any type of injectable for use on the penis. But Dr. Shafer recommends starting with hyaluronic acid fillers because their formula is dissolvable if patients aren't happy with a newly plumper look.
In case you're not familiar, hyaluronic acid is a molecule found in your skin and is known for its water-retaining properties. "In a laboratory, they make bonds between [hyaluronic acid] molecules to turn them into chains [that are used in filler]," says Dr. Shafer. However, not all hyaluronic acid fillers are created equal.
While the results of Voluma and Volux can last up to two years, Dr. Shafer says more seasoned veterans of penile enhancement fillers can opt for, a semipermanent injectable that contains nonbiodegradable acrylic beads suspended in bovine-derived collagen. "Bellafill can't be melted or softened like the Voluma or the Volux, and that's why I always tell patients it's never a first-try filler," says Dr. Shafer.
