Pearly penile papules or PPP for short appear around the base of the head of the penis, which is underneath the foreskin for those who are uncircumcised.
They appear as small 1mm bumps with a white, pearly appearance and can be quite numerous. The important thing to note about PPP is that it is a normal variant and is not related to sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
Many men and their partners are often worried by the appearance but often nothing needs to be done. However, should you want to remove the bumps for cosmetic reasons then we can help.
The procedure starts with a healthy application of numbing cream to the area with PPP. We then leave it 1 hour to soak in and take effect. After the hour has elapsed we can begin to remove the PPP with an electric laser, similar to that we would use for mole removal. The procedure itself should be painless with the application of the numbing cream and takes about 10 to 15 minutes to complete.
Once finished we will supply you with some healing cream to apply over the area for about 2 weeks and then we will probably review again at 4 weeks. If a touch up is needed then we can do it at that time.
PPP is nothing to be worried about as it is considered normal but should you want to remove them for cosmetic purposes please visit professional Men clinics for consultation.
