‌Pearly Penile Papule removal in London involves using the CO2 laser to effectively and safely reduce these spots that appear on the groove of the penis. The treatment involves minimal discomfort, little chance of scarring and very little pain. ‌Pearly Penile Papules appear as white or flesh-coloured spots on the penis and are not contagious. Cosmetic removal at Eve Clinics allows patients to restore sexual confidence and any discomfort caused by these lesions. It’s important to note from the outset that ‌Pearly Penile Papules are not related to any STDs.

‌Achieve renewed confidence with Pearly Penile Papules (PPPs) removal at our Harley Street clinic in London, where we utilise the globally acclaimed SmartXide Touch CO2 Laser by DEKA and the expertise of our Urology surgeon, Mr Richard Viney. Pearly Penile Papules, often appearing on the penis’s head and glans, show white, yellow, or skin-coloured small domed shaped lesions. While benign, these papules can be alarming to look at, prompting many to seek non-invasive cosmetic removal. Frequently mistaken for sexually transmitted infections, PPPs can cause anxiety and hinder sexual relationships, despite being non-contagious and painless. They may also cause some discomfort to the area and rubbing when wearing tight underpants. Although the lesions may fade over time, complete disappearance is unlikely.

To ensure an accurate diagnosis, a medical consultation with our experienced Urologist, specialising in male intimate areas, is essential. We prioritise your comfort, offering assessments and patch tests during the consultation to determine treatment suitability. Our clinic uses the safest and most advanced equipment for delicate lesion removal. At your consultation we will discuss your concerns, examine the area and provide you with the best treatment protocol. At Eve Clinics, we offer a discreet service with our male doctor.

The cause of PPPs remains unknown, affecting uncircumcised men, regardless of hygiene practices. Treatment options include surgical removal, cryosurgery, topical solutions, medication, radiosurgery, and CO2 laser. The latter stands out for its precision, leaving healthy skin unharmed and boasting an excellent safety record. The CO2 laser works by applying a micro injury to the skin and removing the thin outer layer (epidermis). It also heats the underlying skin (dermis) to stimulate the production of new collagen fibers. As the skin repairs itself, it will reveal clearer and smoother skin without imperfections.

Patients benefit from a comprehensive consultation, where our Urologist, with decades of male intimate area expertise, assesses your medical history and conducts patch tests. The session, lasting up to 20 minutes and facilitated by numbing cream for comfort, efficiently targets lesions, often requiring just one treatment for effective removal. The CO2 laser’s ability to stimulate collagen production without causing bleeding ensures a quick, pain-free procedure. The advanced technology minimises the risk of hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation. While rare, patients with an aggressive condition may discuss the possibility of additional sessions during their consultation for optimal and long-lasting results. Trust Eve Clinics on Harley Street for the best cosmetic removal of Pearly Penile Papules.

Following treatment, the area may be a little sensitive but we will ensure you are provided with the best aftercare advice.

How much does PPP removal cost?

You can see our current prices for pearly penile papules removal and consultations on our price list. Your treatment starts with a consultation at our Harley Street clinic. Our Urology Surgeon will examine the area, confirm the spots are PPP and check that treatment is suitable for you. You will know your treatment plan before you go ahead.

Can you remove PPP at home with a kit or cream?

Many men look online for PPP removal kits, creams or other ways to remove them at home. We do not recommend these. They are not a medical treatment, and nobody has checked first that the spots really are PPP.

The skin of the penis is thin and delicate. Using heat, acids, freezing or cutting at home can cause burns, infection, scarring and changes in skin colour. Some other conditions, for example genital warts, can look a little like PPP and need different care.

PPP are harmless and do not need treatment for health reasons. If they bother you, a consultation is the safest place to start. A specialist can confirm what the spots are and talk you through your options. At our Harley Street clinic, PPP removal is carried out by our Urology Surgeon using the CO2 laser.

If you would like to talk it through, book a consultation or contact us with any questions.

Your questions

Frequently asked questions

Are Pearly Penile Papules contagious?

No. Pearly Penile Papules are not contagious. Additionally, they are not related to any STDs or infections passed on through intercourse.

Can you removal all of my Pearly Penile Papules?

Pearly Penile Papules often appear in clusters. So yes, during your treatment session, we can remove all of the Pearly Penile Papules. This discourages regrowth too. Only in very rare circumstances will you require more than one treatment session.

What is the downtime?

Patients will normally be able to return to normal activities immediately after treatment. You should not engage in sexual intercourse for up to 1 week following treatment.

What happens during treatment?

To treat Pearly Penile Papules, our doctor will first clean and apply a numbing cream to the area. He will then use the CO2 laser handpeice to gently glide over the area without touching the lesions themselves. The laser works by leaving healthy tissue unharmed. After treatment, the area may appear a little sore and a scab will form. This will then fall off in time revealing healthy tissue.

What do I need to do to prepare for Pearly Penile Papules treatment?

Please wear loose fitting clothes to your appointment and shave or trim the area beforehand.

What should I do after treatment?

After your Pearly Penile Papules treatment, please leave the area to heal for the first day or so. You can then wash the area using sterilised water. You should avoid hot baths and swimming pools for a week but can shower freely from the second day.

Please abstain from sexual intercourse for one week and use a condom for a few weeks following this.

Will Pearly Penile Papules disappear on their own?

Possibly. Pearly Penile Papules may reduce over time but probably won’t disappear completely.

What are the risks involved?

Pearly Penile Papules removal comes with minimal risks, the most severe one being scarring in very rare instances. You may also experience hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation in rare circumstances.

Will the PPP come back?

There is a chance your Pearly Penile Papules will return, but this is greatly reduced after treatment.

Can I do anything to prevent further lesions?

No, there is nothing you can do to prevent PPP.

Is pearly penile papules a STD?

PPP is not an STD.

What age do pearly penile papules develop?

You can develop Pearly Penile Papules at any age.

Do penile papules spread?

Pearly Penile Papules should not spread once they appear.

How can I tell if my spots are PPP or something else?

PPP usually look like small, smooth, dome-shaped bumps. They are white, yellow or skin-coloured and sit in one or more neat rows around the rim of the head of the penis. They are not contagious and do not spread.

Other harmless spots can look similar, for example Fordyce spots. If your spots look different, have changed or you are not sure what they are, it is best to have them checked. Our Urology Surgeon can examine the area at your consultation and explain your options for genital lesions. If you are worried about a possible infection, your local sexual health clinic can also help.

How many PPP removal sessions will I need?

Many patients need only one CO2 laser session to treat their pearly penile papules. In rare cases a second session may be suggested. Your Urology Surgeon will explain what to expect for you at your consultation, and results vary from person to person. You can see current prices on our price list.
