PATENT
GRANTED FOR PENIS ENLARGEMENT PROCEDURE
Dr Colin Moore of the Australian Cosmetic Surgery Centre has been
awarded a patent from the Australian Patent Office for a penis
enlargement procedure he has been developing over the past thirty
years.
Dr Moore estimates he has performed over two-thousand penis enlargement
operations since he first began using procedures to increase both
the length and girth of the penis in 1967. Typically, such surgery
was used to treat the condition known as micropenis, characterised
in infants by abnormally small genitalia. He has performed genital
reconstruction (penis enlargement) for the micropenis condition
in Australia, the Middle East, the United Kingdom and the United
States.
Dr Moore said the idea to patent the penis enlargement
procedure came about over dinner with a friend who worked in
the legal profession. "I
was a little frustrated that other surgeons would observe the penis
enlargement procedures I carried out and then copy them. I felt
that I had invested so much time in perfecting these procedures
that I wanted to protect them. A friend of mine, a lawyer, suggested
the patent process as a way of protecting the penis enlargement
procedures I had refined. From there, it took about a year or so
for the patent to be granted."
Whilst various patents for cosmetic surgery procedures
already exist, Dr Moore believes this is the first time that
a patent has
been granted for a penis enlargement procedure. Dr Moore is now
looking to secure a medical licensing agreement so he can formalise
training arrangements with other cosmetic surgeons and capitalize
on the knowledge he has gained over many years. "With this
sort of training, other surgeons will be able to quickly reach
the skill level in penis enlargement it has taken me thirty years
to obtain," said Moore.
Dr Moore said demand for penis enlargement was
growing very rapidly. "Back
in 1990, we would perform a handful of these operations in a year.
Now, we are performing over two-hundred penis enlargement procedures
a year. Originally it was just to treat the micropenis condition,
but now, men with what would be called a normal sized penis want
to get bigger."
