In brief:

  • Penis augmentation is a term used for medical and cosmetic approaches to address penis size or shape concerns
  • Assessment focuses on anatomy, health history, goals, and whether options are appropriate
  • Decisions should be based on anatomy, health history and realistic outcomes 
  • Professional medical advice and safety are essential

Penis size and proportion is something many males consider for a range of physical, psychological and cultural reasons. Whether you consider surgical or non-surgical penis augmentation, decisions should be guided by medical expertise, clear, evidence-based information and realistic expectations.

Here, the Contour Clinics medical team explains what a doctor assesses, what factors influence suitability, and why a private medical consultation is an important first step in considering penis augmentation.

What Is Penis Augmentation?

Penis augmentation is a term used to describe medical and cosmetic approaches that may be discussed when someone has concerns about penile size, shape, or proportion. It’s a topic often surrounded by misinformation, exaggerated claims, and unrealistic expectations. Penis augmentation treatments can be surgical or non-surgical, and each option carries considerations for safety, suitability and recovery.

In Australia, options may include surgical procedures (managed by appropriately qualified surgical specialists) and non-surgical cosmetic approaches. This article focuses on what is assessed in consultation, not specific procedures. In a consultation, your cosmetic doctor can outline suitable surgical and non-surgical approaches that you may consider.

If non-surgical options are discussed, the focus is on suitability, safety, and realistic, individualised goals. Specific techniques, materials and expected changes are discussed one-to-one during consultation.

Non-surgical options may be discussed during a private consultation for people seeking changes in penis proportions or symmetry. Volumisation is one approach that may be considered in selected cases. Suitability depends on anatomy, skin characteristics, medical history, and realistic goals.

If relevant, your doctor will explain risks, limitations, and what change may or may not be realistic for you, and may recommend no treatment or referral where appropriate.

Non-surgical penis augmentation, where appropriate, is performed by qualified medical practitioners in a clinical environment with a focus on patient safety and individual suitability. Any potential change varies between individuals, and the goal of consultation is to discuss realistic expectations, limitations and risks. 

At Contour Clinics, the conversation is centred on safety, suitability, and proportion – not exaggerated change. Where appropriate, the preference is for a measured, natural-looking result that remains in balance with your baseline anatomy.

Who Might Consider Penis Augmentation?

Many men consider increasing their penis size for personal reasons. At Contour Clinics, we see males from all walks of life book a penis proportion consultation to:

  • Build confidence in their appearance
  • Augment their natural size or proportion
  • Align with cultural reasons  
  • Undergo aesthetic improvements as part of their personal grooming
  • Premature ejaculation concerns 
  • And more

Whatever your motivation, medical evaluation is vital before undergoing penis augmentation. Your medical history, circumcision status, evidence of scar tissue, allergies, mental health, physical health, and goals all play a role in determining how suitable, risky and effective this procedure can be. 

Doctor assessment is important in determining what’s realistically achievable for you – and what’s not. For example, the manner in which a man has been circumcised can directly affect suitability and what outcomes may be realistic. How loose and low, or how high and tight a circumcision has been performed can dictate the augmentation approach – and how effectively it may achieve your goals.

What to Expect in a Doctor Consultation

At Contour Clinics, all patient discussions about penis augmentation begin with a private consultation with a male doctor experienced in non-surgical penis enhancement. 

We want to have a deep understanding of your goals and history. Equally, we want you to have a thorough understanding of the procedure so you can make an informed decision. We spend time discussing both the risks and rewards, ensuring every patient has a clear understanding before they decide to proceed.

Our focus is always on safety, evidence-based care and realistic expectations rather than size alone.

Initial consultation

  • Review of medical history, allergies, and existing health conditions
  • Discussion of goals and expectations
  • Examination of penile anatomy to assess suitability
  • Education about the procedure using anatomical diagrams and answering your questions
  • Discussion of risks, limitations, cost and treatment plan
  • Cooling-off period (minimum one week, as per AHPRA guidelines)

Review Appointment

A review is conducted after two weeks to assess results, healing, and determine if adjustments are required.

Risks of the Procedure

Any medical procedure contains risk. For penis augmentation, risks may include:

  •  Swelling
  •  Bruising
  •  Infection – a rare occurrence 
  •  Hypersensitivity – presents as a swelling and tenderness that usually occurs from weeks after the procedure and can be managed with anti-inflammatories or antibiotics

It is important for your doctor to discuss at length the potential outcomes of the procedure – both positive and negative, to carefully manage expectations and to provide informed consent. 


Safety and Regulation

Penis augmentation procedures must always be carried out in a sterile, medical-grade environment by trained doctors. 

All treatments done at Contour Clinics are done in medically accredited facilities under strict infection control standards with a focus on safety, efficacy, and sterility.

It’s widely thought that oral supplements are an alternative penis augmentation treatment. However, there is no evidence that tablets can achieve any degree of penis enlargement. There are no studies to support that and there is no known physiological mechanism for which this would work. Any product making such a claim should be viewed with caution.

Realistic expectations of penis augmentation defined by Dr Gavin Scriven at Sydney's Contour Clinics

Realistic Expectations

Results for penis augmentation vary by individual and they are very much based on your baseline characteristics:

  •  Baseline length
  •  Degree of retraction at baseline i.e how much your penis retracts into your body when at rest
  •  Presence of over-activity of the dartos muscle, which can cause retraction
  •  Excessive retraction

Based on your individual anatomy, baseline length, circumcision status and goals, your doctor can carefully manage your expectations. From this, they provide personalised education and informed consent.

And, if you’re wondering, “Will my penis still feel hard when erect?” after penis augmentation… 

Results are specific to your unique baseline and circumstances. In general, the results of this penis augmentation typically feel consistent with the natural erectile tissue beneath. When flaccid, the area may feel slightly softer than usual at first, but when erect, it feels natural and consistent with your underlying firmness.
