Perovial Treatment for Peyronie’s Disease, London
Perovial is a minimally invasive injectable treatment for Peyronie’s disease. It uses high-purity hyaluronic acid, injected directly into the plaque, to support treatment during the active phase of the condition.
It may be considered as a non-surgical option for suitable men experiencing changing curvature or pain during erections.
What is Perovial?
Perovial is an injectable medical device containing high-purity hyaluronic acid. It is used in the active phase of Peyronie’s disease, when curvature or pain may still be changing.
Peyronie’s disease occurs when fibrous scar tissue, known as plaque, develops inside the penis. This can lead to a bend or curve during erections, pain, changes in sexual function and difficulty with confidence or intimacy.
Perovial is injected directly into the plaque. The treatment aims to support tissue flexibility and may help manage pain and curvature in suitable men during the active phase.
Hyaluronic acid occurs naturally in the body’s tissues and is able to retain water. In this setting, it is used as part of a specialist-led treatment approach for Peyronie’s disease.
Perovial is one of several treatment options for Peyronie’s disease. Your consultant will assess whether you are in the active phase and explain whether it may be appropriate for you.
Three ways hyaluronic acid helps
Perovial is delivered as a series of injections into the plaque.
Antioxidant action
Hyaluronic acid may help address oxidative stress, which can be involved in the inflammatory processes associated with Peyronie’s disease.
Anti‑fibrotic effect
The treatment is intended to help limit the collagen activity associated with plaque formation and loss of tissue flexibility.
Hydration and tissue flexibility
Hyaluronic acid attracts and retains water, which may help support the flexibility of tissue affected by plaque.

- Increasing or changing penile curvature

Frequently asked questions
What is Peyronie’s disease?

How many Perovial sessions will I need?
A course usually involves 10 injections, given one week apart. Your consultant will confirm the recommended plan during your consultation.
Is Perovial treatment painful?
The injections are placed directly into the plaque and some discomfort can occur. Your clinician will explain what the appointment involves and the steps taken to keep you as comfortable as possible.
Is Perovial right for me?
Perovial may be considered for suitable men in the active phase of Peyronie’s disease. A consultant assessment is needed to establish whether it is appropriate for your symptoms and the stage of the condition.
Is Perovial an alternative to surgery?
It may be a non-surgical option for some men, particularly during the active phase. If curvature becomes stable and continues to make sexual activity difficult, other treatments, including surgery, may need to be discussed.
