Overview
- Fabio de Pasquale, a reality TV personality, publicly discussed in the second episode of his YouTube documentary that he did not follow his surgeon’s six‑week sex ban and had sex about two weeks after the operation.
- The treating surgeon, Dr. Christoph Jethon, confirmed the procedure increased Fabio’s erect length to roughly 18 centimetres and said regular use of a stretching device could add about two more centimetres.
- Fabio said breaking the rules caused severe pain and warned others not to repeat his mistake, while also admitting he skipped some daily aftercare tasks such as massaging the scar.
- Surgeon guidance highlighted that early sexual activity or missed scar care can risk reopening fresh surgical scars and that strict aftercare—sex restriction, daily scar massage, and device use—is needed to protect healing.
- Fabio documented the operation and recovery in public outlets, citing long‑standing psychological distress about penis size as his motive, which has driven conversation about cosmetic genital surgery, patient privacy and the consequences of noncompliance with post‑op care.
