Before we explain pearly penile papules treatments, let’s first take a look at what pearly penile papules are. You may have never heard of the condition or may be more familiar with the shorter acronym – PPP. If you’re unfamiliar, read on or contact our clinic if you have any questions or concerns.
If you have spotted small growths on your penis that appear to have a pearly tip, then there’s a good chance these are penile papules. Penile papules typically appear on the corona of the penis, though they can also be found along the frenulum (back of the penis). At this stage, you might be wondering how you contracted the papules.
Papules aren’t actually contracted as they are not an STD. Nobody is entirely sure what causes them, but they usually occur around puberty. There they remain until they are surgically removed. Because they are noticeable, they are often a source of embarrassment, even impacting a person’s sexual freedom as they shy from intimate encounters.
It is important to note that pearly penile papules do not cause any harm; they are not signs of a more serious condition, nor can they lead to one. They are also usually painless and cause no other discomfort for the most part. However, this quickly becomes a different story if a person attempts to remove them.
There is a common misconception that papules are symptoms of a sexually transmitted infection or another condition, but that is not the case. That being said, this case of mistaken identity often causes a problem and leads to individuals resorting to drastic measures to rid themselves of the papules.
You will not feel any discomfort as a result of pearly penile papules, but many men feel self-conscious because of them. Many clients that we have helped experienced bouts of anxiety over sexual exploration. They feared that sexual partners would be put off, or some would mistakenly assume they had an STI.
If you recognise these feelings, it is important to seek our professional assistance at The PPP Clinic. By undergoing our pearly penile papules removal treatment, you will regain your confidence and allow yourself to move forward. We can assure you that there are no health concerns associated with this condition, but if you want extra reassurance, seek advice from your GP.
The good news is that while it’s next to impossible to remove penile papules yourself, our treatments are another story entirely. We’ll get you scheduled in for a consultation, determine whether you have penile papules, and then arrange a treatment. Treatment involves the removal of all papules. We use advanced methods to accomplish this as quickly, effectively, and painlessly as possible.
And once treated, the papules will not return, so you’ll be free to explore intimate relationships once more without dealing with the elephant in the room.
