Correction of intimate asymmetries
The correction of intimate asymmetries refers to surgical procedures to correct imbalances or irregularities in the area of the external genitalia. These procedures serve both physical and functional purposes and help to improve physical well-being and sexual satisfaction.
What are intimate asymmetries?
Intimate asymmetries are natural or acquired differences in the size, shape or position of the external genital structures. In men, they mainly concern:
- The penis shaft (e.g. uneven thickening)
- The glans penis (e.g. asymmetrical shape after thickening surgery)
- The scrotum (e.g. excess skin on one side or deviations in shape)
Causes of intimate asymmetries:
- Congenital anatomical variations
- Consequences of injuries or inflammation
- Changes after surgical procedures (e.g. penis thickening, fat grafting)
- Tissue ageing or changes due to weight loss
Possible complaints:
- Disturbing visual impression
- Mechanical problems during sexual intercourse
- Insecurity or psychological distress
Surgical correction:
- Precise removal or redistribution of excess tissue
- Symmetrical modeling of the penis shaft or glans
- Fine plastic techniques to avoid scars and preserve the natural shape
- If necessary, combination with volume adjustments (e.g. targeted autologous fat transplantation)
The procedure is usually performed on an outpatient basis and under local anesthesia or twilight sleep, so that a quick recovery is possible.
