Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: group 1
15 patients They will receive a topical anesthetic agent for 30 minutes (Emla cream; lidocaine 25 mg, prilocaine 25 mg, Astra Xeneca, Mississauga, Canada) followed by injection of two prefilled 1 ml syringes with 30 G needle of hyaluronic acid (HA; Teosyal® PureSense Global Action, Teoxane Laboratories, Geneva, Switzerland). After 18 months from the HA injection, cross-over to placebo arm will be done.
Glans penis augmentation using multiple puncture technique as described by Abdallah et al. (2012) with minor modifications. HA is injected at two circular levels: one at the level of corona of glans penis and a second circular level is mid-way between the corona and urethral meatus. Six injections are injected at coronal level and four are injected in the second level, each injection is of 0.2 ml and is injected into deep dermis.
Placebo Comparator: group 2
They receive by the same method 2 ml saline as a placebo. After one month of the injection, cross-over to HA arm will be done.
