hi my name is dr. Kelvin and I'm from
dr. tan and partners and today I will be
talking about pearly penile papules
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 as 1 millimeter
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 sexually
transmitted disease many men and their
partners are often worried by the
appearance but often nothing needs to be
done however should we 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 for 1
hour to soak in and take effect after
the hours elapsed we can begin to remove
the PPP with an electric laser similar
to the ones we used for mold 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 we can do it at that
time

is considered normal but should you want
