If needles scare you, you aren’t alone. Most people don’t like the thought of being intentionally stuck with one.
Adults avoid doctors and dentists because of fear of pain from needles and other procedures.
Combine pain with your most sensitive private area—your penis—and it’s no wonder why many men dismiss the idea of bulking up their penis before they even research it.
It’s today’s growing cosmetic trend to help men bulk up down there. Penile growth injections are helping men of all ages feel better about themselves, walk with confidence, and enhance their sexual lives.
Interested in why this injection is nothing to be scared of? Below, we’ll discuss the procedure and put your mind at ease when it comes to penis enlargement injections.
First, learn how this non-surgical penis enlargement goes down. Then, discover why it’s the best method available.
The Procedure
You arrive at your girth provider’s office several minutes before your appointment. You have plenty of time to park, walk to the office, fill out any additional paperwork, and discuss your needs, desires, and expectations with the provider (not an assistant).
Next, you slip the ear pods you brought from home into your ears and listen to your favorite podcast, current audiobook, or relaxing music. The doctor begins by sticking you with a needle.
You expect to feel a lot of pain from the needle, but it’s (pardon the pun) just a little prick.
You wait, expecting more sticks of a needle (after all, you are receiving girth growth injections in a sensitive area). However, you hardly feel a thing—some slight pressure, things moving, but no pain.
Before you know it, only 30 minutes of your book or podcast have passed when your doctor taps you on the shoulder to let you know you are finished. Could it really be over already?
Your doctor asks you to rate your pain on a scale of 0-10, with zero being no pain and the highest number being the most pain you’ve ever experienced. Like many men who have had this done before you, you rank the pain you felt as a “one” (hardly any pain) on the scale.
You receive detailed instructions on what to do at home to maintain the best placement of your penile filler. You note that you should avoid all sexual activities for the next 10 days.
You return to work, your hotel room, or your house and continue your busy life.
That’s the way enlarging your penis with hyaluronic acid dermal filler typically goes—quick, relatively painless, and efficient.
Fears and Questions
Men hoping to enhance their penises typically have questions and anxieties regarding sticking needles in such a sensitive area. That’s understandable. Any knowledgeable provider can expect and patiently answer your questions.
See the answers to some of the most common questions below.
Q: Can’t you numb me without needles?
A: Understandably, you would rather receive topical numbing ointment than an injection. But trust that you wouldn’t want it any other way. Numbing ointments take so long to take effect. By the time your provider finishes the procedure, you’d still be waiting for the numbing effect to kick in.
Q: Can you use the smallest needle possible?
A: Yes! And that’s what your chosen provider should use—the smallest diabetic needle delivering lidocaine just underneath the skin for the least amount of pain.
The sensations you typically feel in your penis occur in nerves that sit just underneath the skin. There is no need to inject deeper into the shaft or use a large needle.
Q: Can’t you use a nerve block or something stronger?
A: Localized injections of lidocaine are all you need to get through the hyaluronic acid girth injections comfortably. Other desensitizing methods involve more and deeper injections with bigger (read, “more painful”) needles or nerve blocks, which are more intense and involved than the procedure requires.
Your Questions Matter
Not all girth enhancement providers and techniques are created equal. It’s important to ask potential providers your pressing questions (especially about how they administer the injections and which products they use) before choosing who to go with.
Feel free to use the questions above to learn how a provider delivers their girth growth formula.
First, make sure your provider uses FDA-approved hyaluronic acid filler. Ask what they expect your growth gains to be per treatment. (Hint: It should be about ¼”-½”.)
Next, ask questions to learn how they numb you. Do they use a lidocaine injection with the smallest possible needle? You know what to look for in a procedure now that you’ve learned you don’t want a topical skin-numbing ointment or deeper, additional, and more painful injections.
Also, pick a provider who has plenty of experience, good ratings, and before and after photos. Choose one who patiently listens to and answers your questions, especially about any anxiety or concerns related to pain, which, as you’ve learned, should be next to none.
