A growing trend has seen men try Botox to enlarge their manhoods<\/p>\nBrits have been warned about unregulated ‘pop up clinics’ offering back street Botox procedures to enlarge manhoods as many men later require NHS treatment for complicationsA growing trend has seen men try Botox to enlarge their manhoods<\/p>\n
A man had to have his penis amputated after a botched Botox procedure<\/a> as more and more people are needing NHS<\/a> help following unregulated cosmetic procedures.<\/p>\n In a worrying new trend, men have been heading to unregulated \u2018pop-up clinics\u2019 in Glasgow <\/a>to treat erectile dysfunction or \u201cenlarge\u201d their manhoods. The procedure sees Botox or fillers injected into the patient\u2019s genitals and some patients have been forced to seek urgent medical treatment at NHS A&E departments with a range of complications. And in one severe case a patient has required amputation of his penis after the botched Botox procedure.<\/p>\n There has been an influx of patients in recent months presenting at the Royal Alexandra Hospital in Paisley, an insider told the Daily Record.<\/a><\/p>\n The NHS source said one patient attended A&E after having a Vaseline-type substance injected into his penis. \u201cThe side effects were so severe he had his penis amputated,\u201d they said.<\/p>\n \u201cWe also had a patient in his 30s who had Botox injected into his penis. He ended up suffering an extremely severe reaction. The number of male patients we are seeing coming through the doors with similar issues from botched aesthetic procedures is increasing.<\/p>\n \u201cPop-up clinics in the Glasgow area are rife. There are day clinics with unregulated people dishing out new treatments then leaving customers to deal with the consequences.<\/p>\n \u201cThe men who come in looking for help with side-effects say there are often queues down the street to get into one of these day clinics.\u201d<\/p>\n Medical experts have confirmed Botox can be prescribed to treat erectile dysfunction by relaxing muscles and improving blood flow. While filler can be injected into the body to rejuvenate volume.<\/p>\n The procedures are gaining popularity in the UK through the influence of social media which can be a fertile ground for rogue practitioners. A clinic in Glasgow is reportedly offering penis enlargement treatment using fillers with prices starting from \u00a3950.<\/p>\n Dr Ben Taylor-Davies, who runs the Stockbridge Clinic in Edinburgh and also works as an A&E doctor said his own clinic was recently approached by a company looking for premises to offer genital procedures but they refused.<\/p>\n He said: \u201cI am horrified to hear what is happening to male patients who go to \u201cpop-up clinics\u201d but I am not surprised. There are very few specialist doctors who can perform cosmetic injection procedures on male genitals.<\/p>\n “It is not a procedure I would ever recommend to a patient, even if you went to a specialist, never mind a back-door pop-up clinic. Injections in these areas carry a high risk of infection and could lead to death. This is another example of the dangers the public faces over the lack of regulation in aesthetics.\u201d<\/p>\n Plastic surgeon Dr Darren McKeown warned seeking injectable treatment is not a quick fix. He added: \u201cThese procedures for men are very popular due to the rise of social media.<\/p>\n \u201cMany practitioners promoting these procedures on platforms like TikTok make it seem very easy to quickly increase the length and girth of your penis.<\/p>\n \u201cMen need to understand that this is not the quick fix and they have a low chance of success. The reality is patients will be plagued with health problems. If a man is considering a procedure to their penis you should always seek specialist advice from a urological surgeon.\u201d<\/p>\n The \u201cback-street Botox\u201d boom has already been blamed for putting pressure on A&E departments at hospitals<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"Royal](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/0_AMP_SDR_190916_RAH03.jpg\")
