Testicular lift is generally intended for mature men. This intimate cosmetic surgery removes excess skin from the bursae to restore tone to the skin tissue and lift the testicles. Dr Christophe Desouches, confirmed cosmetic surgeon in Marseille, will be able to perform this operation and advise you according to your needs.
A rejuvenated appearance for testicles with a drooping appearance
For men of a certain age, the appearance of the scrotum (or testicles, or bursae, more precisely the skin covering the testicles) can represent aesthetic discomfort when the skin is stretched and the general appearance “slack”.
The discomfort can also be functional during physical, sports or sexual activities: sloshing, twisting, pain, etc.
The goal of this intervention carried out by your cosmetic surgeon established in Marseille, is to perform an intervention which consists, under local anesthesia, in removing the excess skin to raise the testicles, to rejuvenate their appearance and improve the patient's comfort during its various activities.
He will quickly feel aesthetic, functional and psychological benefits after a scrotum lift.
Important: after the operation, once the results have stabilized, the patient resumes sexual intercourse without any discomfort. The testicular lift has no impact on the size of the penis, or on erectile dysfunction or premature ejaculation.
How is a scrotum lift performed?
The remodeling of the testicles is a reliable and perfectly controlled intervention.
Thanks to a preoperative drawing made before the surgical act, Dr Christophe Desouches makes the incisions which allow the resection of part of the scrotum.
The skin is closed in two planes with an absorbable suture, then a bandage with a suspender is applied.

The final results are visible a few months after the operation, they are stable over time.
