Penile Lengthening

Understanding Short Penis or Buried Penis Syndrome

Having a penis that appears shorter than average—commonly referred to as buried penis—can cause distress and a loss of self-confidence for many men. In this article, we’ll explore the causes of this condition and the treatment options available to safely and effectively increase penile length.

What Is Buried Penis or Short Penis Syndrome?

A buried penis is a condition in which the penis appears partially or completely hidden, making the glans (head of the penis) difficult to see. This condition can occur in both children and adults, particularly those who are overweight or have erectile function issues.

Beyond the physical aspects, this condition can deeply affect a man’s confidence and body image. In some cases, it can even interfere with normal sexual function or hygiene—making it harder to clean the area properly, which increases the risk of infection.

Common Causes of a Buried or Short Penis

Excess fat in the lower abdomen or pubic area, which causes the penis to become "buried" under the tissue.
Abnormally tight or misaligned connective tissues, which pull the penis inward.
Scrotal skin attaching too tightly to the penile shaft, limiting visible length.
Post-surgical scarring, such as from circumcision.
Overactive or tight penile muscles, especially noticeable when the penis appears short when flaccid but normal in length when erect.

Treatment Options for Penile Lengthening

Treatment for a buried or short penis depends on the underlying cause. Here are the most common approaches:

1. Fat Reduction Surgery (Liposuction) Around the Penis

Ideal for individuals with excess fatty tissue in the pubic area. This procedure helps reveal more of the shaft by reducing the surrounding fat.

2. Scrotal Skin Release Surgery

For those with overly tight scrotal skin that tugs the penis upward, this surgery helps release the skin and improve visible length.

3. Suspensory Ligament Release Surgery

This procedure involves cutting the ligament that tethers the penis to the pubic bone, allowing more of the shaft to extend outward. This can result in a visible increase of 1–3 centimeters.
Note: This surgery may cause the penis to angle slightly downward after healing.

4. Muscle Relaxant Injections

For men whose penile muscles are excessively contracted, especially when flaccid. These injections help the penis appear longer even when not erect.

Advantages: Non-surgical, no downward tilt, visible results even when flaccid.
Limitations: Temporary results lasting approximately 6–10 months. Repeat treatments may be needed.
