Testicular prosthesis surgery
English subtitled video
The testicular prosthesis operation at Clínica Sanza in Barcelona consists of placing a prosthesis in the scrotal pouch, the material of which does not cause an immunological reaction and integrates with the tissues in a natural way. This prosthesis envelops the testicles and gives them a larger appearance, so that there is no longer the sensation of having four testicles, as some patients think.
This operation does not affect the functionality of the testicles.
WHERE DO WE OPERATE?

Frequently asked questions about male intimate surgery
What is male intimate surgery?
What are the procedures I can do to improve my intimate area?
- Penis Thickening
- Penis Enlargment
- Phimosectomy and penile curvature
- Reduction of excess scrotal skin
- Testicular prosthesis
- Lipolaser in prominent pubis
What are these procedures?
Penis Thickening
Can be achieved by filling the circumference of the penis with fat extracted from the patient himself or with temporary fillers. It can be performed under local anesthesia or sedation and, depending on the case, can be carried out in 1 to 3 sessions to achieve the diameter desired by the patient. With our many years of experience we recommend the installation of a biological mesh.
Penis Enlargement
A lengthening of the penis is done in flaccidity, not in erection. By means of a simple surgery that allows the extension of the resting organ to be lengthened by a few centimetres. It is done with local anesthesia or sedation and on an outpatient basis. Recovery is relatively quick and painless.
Phimosectomy and penile curvature
There are alterations in the shape of the penis, either congenital or acquired, that require surgical correction. In these cases, each individual case must be evaluated in order to evaluate the problem and the different procedures for its adequate repair, either through a circumcision or a plastia to straighten the penis.
Reduction of excess scrotal skin
There are cases in which there is excess scrotal skin that can be unsightly or give an appearance of premature aging of the male genitals. The correction of this problem is surgical, eliminating the excess of skin, thus elevating the very fallen or hanging testicles. It can be performed under local anesthesia or sedation and on an outpatient basis. Recovery is simple and does not affect the sensitivity or functionality of the area. The scrotum scars are very hidden in the raphe or midline and are imperceptible.
Testicular prosthesis
There are cases in which for different reasons, congenital or acquired there is an absence of one or both testicles or cases in which the size of the testicle is very small. In these situations, repair of the defect is achieved through a prosthesis that is placed in the scrotal pouch either to correct the absence or increase the size. The procedure is with local anesthesia or sedation and ambulatory, after the surgery must wear a jockstrap for a short time.
Lipolaser or liposuction of the pubis
The area of the pubis often has excess volume at the expense of fatty tissue, which can give a visual appearance of decreased penis size that is not real, in turn this fatty tissue is not aesthetically correct, so making use of liposuction or lipolaser we can extract this fat and giving a desired appearance, which greatly improves the genital area. It is done with local anesthesia or sedation and can take about 1 hour and on an outpatient basis.
