A warning has been issued to men following the news of a groundbreaking new procedure that can result in a bigger penis.
A new filler treatment claims to increase penis size in just one short session, offering a quick fix for men looking to enhance their appearance below the belt.
But is it really worth the risk?
The New Cosmetic Trend for Men: Penile Fillers
Forget abs and hair transplants — the latest frontier in male grooming focuses on girth.
A non-surgical treatment using hyaluronic acid, the same ingredient found in popular facial fillers, is now being used to add volume to the penis.
The process involves injecting the acid directly into the shaft to create a thicker, more uniform look.
According to Daily Mail, the method doesn't affect sensation or sexual performance, and there's no need for a hospital stay.

How the Penile Filler Procedure Works
Chris Fleischer, practice manager at Cosmetic Connection, explained the process in a recent interview: "It's quite a simple procedure that enlarges the size of the penis.
It primarily focuses on the girth, but it's non-surgical - you can walk in and walk out the same day."
Each appointment takes around 20 minutes and is performed under local anesthetic, making it a relatively painless option.
However, results aren’t immediate in terms of use.
"You cannot use it the same day," Fleischer noted. "There's a recovery period of at least two weeks."

Warning Issued
Fleischer did note some drawbacks, however, and this may deter men from undergoing the procedure.
"Sadly, the results don't last forever. 'It can last up to around three to five years," he explained.
"We usually recommend people come back every two years for a top-up."
Also, the procedure can cost anywhere between $5000 to $10,000 depending on how much filler is used.
Given the cost and the frequency of how often the filler would need to be applied, many men have probably been priced out.
There's also the worry that partners could get used to the enhanced size, and when the effects wear off, it could create tension in the bedroom.

Who’s Getting It Done?
Clinics offering the treatment report rising demand across a wide age range.
While some patients are in their 20s and 30s dealing with insecurity, others are older and experiencing age-related changes. Some men are even motivated by the desire to improve their partner’s experience.
"It's not one type of guy," Fleischer said. "You get young men who are insecure, older men who've experienced shrinkage, and even some who just want their partner to enjoy sex more after childbirth."
Though the treatment is designed primarily for increasing girth, slight improvements in length may occur, but that’s not its main focus.
"For the non-surgical option, length gains aren't possible," Fleischer added.
The most common question Fleischer hears is whether the enhancement is detectable.
"If it's done well, you can't tell," he said.
