Pearly penile papules (PPP’s) are small raised nodules (bumps), usually 1-2 mm in size, which are located around the rim of the penis head in the form of string of pearls. Usually developing during adolescence, they have been reported in up to 35% of males. Uncircumcised men are more likely to have pearly penile papules. Very often these lesions are confused with genital warts, although there is no known link between warts and pearly penile papules. Pearly penile papules are NOT malignant and are NOT spread via sexual contact. Most men with penile papules do not seek medical treatment. However, many men with papules feel uncomfortable in sexual situations because their partners may mistake the papules for genital warts or find the growths unattractive. *

Many treatment methods have been tried, including circumcision, podophyllin, cryotherapy, and even the amateur application of toothpaste. But these methods had proven to be either ineffective or have side effects. Until recently, electrodessication and carbon dioxide laser were considered the most effective treatment options. *

Radiofrequency surgery uses high-frequency electrical energy delivered through a fine electrode to treat individual papules. Treatment aims to limit injury to surrounding tissue. Bleeding, scarring, pigment changes and incomplete removal remain possible. *

PPP Removal: Diagnosis, Comfort and Recovery
Pearly penile papules are a harmless anatomical variation. They are not a sexually transmitted infection and do not require removal for medical reasons. An examination is important because other genital growths can look similar.
Why consider radiofrequency removal?
At Dermacare Medical, Dr. Yuriy Yagudin uses a fine radiofrequency electrode to treat selected papules individually. Cosmetic treatment is optional. The consultation covers the extent of treatment, anesthesia, expected healing and alternatives.
When can I resume sexual activity?
Avoid intercourse, masturbation and friction on the treated skin until it has fully healed and your treating clinician advises it is safe. Returning to desk work does not mean the skin is ready for sexual activity.
Can removal leave scars or changes in color?
Scarring, pigment changes, infection and incomplete removal are possible. No technique guarantees scar-free healing or complete clearance after one session.
What if the bumps are painful, bleeding or changing?
Arrange an examination before cosmetic treatment. Pain, ulceration, discharge or a changing growth should not automatically be attributed to PPP.
