Medical Removal
While hirsuties papillaris genitalis pose no risk to a male's health or sex life, some men or their sexual partners may consider them aesthetically displeasing. There are several medical ways to remove them. Like any elective medical procedure, there is always some risk of unexpected consequences, so doctors advise against their removal unless they are causing a patient serious problems.
One of the available treatments is performed by a dermatologist, using a CO2 laser to vaporise the papules. This normally takes only a few minutes to perform. It is simple and does not normally require a hospital stay; discomfort should be minimal and the expected recovery time is limited to a few days. Another procedure involves electrosurgery performed with a hyfrecator and should take less than an hour to perform.
Both procedures should be out-patient procedures if no complications arise.
