◈

Artfully Natural

Anatomical sculpting that respects your natural proportions — smooth, symmetrical gains that feel as natural as they look.

◈

Concierge Experience

We reject the high-volume clinic model. Private consultations, direct physician access, and proactive follow-up care.

◈

The Microcannula Advantage

Blunt-tip microcannulas preserve blood vessels and nerves — minimal bruising, faster recovery, maximum safety.

◈

Layer-Specific Technique

We target specific anatomical planes for stable, symmetrical, smooth volume — not a simple "fill job."

About BDE Clinic

Creators of the BDE-Girth™ Procedure.

At BDE Clinic, we believe that sexual wellness and body confidence are fundamental to a man's quality of life. We are the creators of the BDE-Girth™ Procedure — a specialized protocol designed to enhance both physical girth and mental confidence through advanced medical artistry.

We specialize in non-surgical girth enhancement, helping patients achieve their goals through physical refinement and the psychological empowerment — the "BDE mindset" — that follows.

The BDE-Girth™ Standard

Not just a fill job — a proprietary methodology using biocompatible fillers with a focus on physical excellence, precision, and safety.

Two Proven Tiers

BDE-Girth™: Surface (HA) for immediate reversible bulk, and BDE-Girth™: Deep (HA/CaHA Hybrid) for semi-permanent structural enhancement — the Provider's Choice.

Your Journey

Private consultation → in-office procedure under local anesthesia (under 60 min) → follow-up and refinement. Discrete, professional care at every step.

"Our goal is to provide a discrete, professional environment where men can discuss their goals without judgment and receive world-class medical care."

The BDE-Girth™ Procedure

It's in the technique.

The key to safe, natural-looking enhancement is not just the volume of filler used, but the exact depth of its placement. The penile shaft has distinct anatomical layers — we target the precise one for each tier.

The BDE Standard

Three core pillars of safety.

Anatomy-Specific Techniques

Whether circumcised or uncircumcised, our technique adapts to your body — accounting for scar lines, foreskin mobility, and individual tissue variation.

Layer-Specific Injection

We identify and accurately target specific anatomical planes. Volume remains stable, symmetrical, and smooth — placed precisely where it belongs.

The Microcannula Advantage

Blunt-tipped microcannulas glide through tissue rather than piercing — preserving blood vessels and nerves, minimal bruising, faster recovery.

⚠️ FDA Disclaimer: The dermal fillers used in the BDE-Girth™ procedure are FDA-approved for use in facial rejuvenation. This procedure represents an off-label use of these FDA-approved products. Off-label use means the product is used in a manner not specifically approved by the FDA. All risks, benefits, and alternatives have been discussed during your consultation.

Penile Neuromodulation

Botox for Retraction (Dtox)

Many men experience "penile retraction" — the penis pulling back due to cold, stress, or physical activity. This is driven by an overactive cremasteric reflex or hyper-contraction of smooth muscle within the fascial layers.

At BDE Clinic, we use Penile Neuromodulation — strategic Botulinum Toxin — to relax these involuntary contractions, allowing a more consistent, relaxed flaccid length and improved "locker room" confidence.

Pricing
$1,200

Per treatment with 100 unit vial. Add Dtox same-day as any BDE-Girth™ procedure and receive a $200 discount.

Synergy with BDE-Girth™

Neuromodulation ensures fillers set while the penis is in its most elongated state — maximizing and displaying your new volume at all times. Highly recommended as an add-on to BDE-Girth™: Deep.

What to Expect
01

Topical Numbing

High-strength numbing cream applied. If performed with BDE-Girth™, you're already completely numb.

02

Precision Delivery

Small units of Botox delivered into superficial layers of the penis and the cremaster muscles in both sides of the proximal scrotum.

03

Onset

Results begin within 5–7 days, with full relaxation by day 14. "Like just getting out of a hot steamy shower or sauna."

04

Longevity

A single session provides 3–6 months of relief from retraction. Can be repeated as desired to maintain results.

FAQ

Your questions, answered.

How long does the appointment take? +

The consultation typically lasts 30–60 minutes, including a full medical history review, physical exam, and goal discussion. If you proceed with the procedure, allow 120 minutes total for consultation, anatomical mapping, procedure, and post-care briefing.

What happens step by step during the procedure? +

1. Preparation & Numbing: Local anesthetic block of the entire penis and cannula access sites. Minor pinches, then complete numbness. You remain awake throughout.

2. The Procedure: 1–3 tiny entry points for blunt-tipped microcannulas. You may feel pressure but not pain. Filler deposited into precise anatomical layers. You often see the girth increase before leaving the table.

3. First 48 Hours: Mild soreness, heaviness, or tightness is normal. Light walking and office work are fine immediately. Avoid strenuous lower-body exercise for 48–72 hours. No sexual activity for 2 weeks.

4. Critical Moulding Phase (First 72 Hours): Daily manual moulding techniques to smooth filler and ensure symmetric integration. Your active participation directly determines the quality of your final result.

5. Follow-Up (Weeks 2–4): Once swelling subsides and filler has set, minor asymmetries can be touched up to fine-tune results.

Is it painful? +

Comfort is a top priority. We use local anesthetic combined with the blunt microcannula technique. Most patients report a sensation of pressure rather than pain and are surprised by how comfortable the process is.

Are fillers safe for this area? +

Yes. We use premium FDA-approved HA and CaHA fillers. While their use for girth enhancement is "off-label," these products have been used in millions of procedures worldwide. Minor lumps or irregularities post-procedure are common and typically resolve through moulding. More persistent irregularities may require Kenalog and 5-FU injections.

How long do results last? +

Surface (HA): Up to 1.5 years. HA undergoes isovolumetric degradation — it maintains volume until just before the end of its lifespan. 100% reversible with hyaluronidase ($150/vial).

Deep (HA/CaHA Hybrid): 2+ years. The CaHA stimulates your body's own collagen; that collagen remains even after the filler itself is absorbed. Partially reversible.

Which procedure should I choose — Surface or Deep? +

Surface (HA): Best immediate bulk per ml — the best bang for your buck. Great entry-level "test drive." Fully reversible.

Deep (Hybrid) — Provider's Choice: Recommended for most patients. Immediate HA bulk plus long-lasting CaHA collagenesis. Semi-permanent with the peace of mind from partial reversibility.

Both options may require follow-up maintenance treatments. Some men achieve their desired result in a single session; others benefit from additional volume over time.

What enhancements can I expect? +

Measurable Girth: Immediate increase in thickness visible in both flaccid and erect states. Every 5ml provides approximately 0.5 inch girth improvement.

Flaccid Hang: The added weight of filler allows the penis to hang lower and heavier.

Corrective Sculpting: Natural voids, dips, or curves can be filled for a more symmetrical, aesthetic appearance.

Note on Erect Length: The procedure does not affect erect length — it focuses on bulk and presence, not extending internal erectile tissue.

Visualize your projected gains with our interactive tool →

What if I am uncircumcised? +

Absolutely. We have built a near-specialty practice around uncircumcised anatomy and frequently have men travel from out of state specifically for our expertise. We have purpose-built techniques to keep filler out of the mobile foreskin — a challenge that defeats many other providers. Both the Surface (HA) and Deep (Hybrid) options are available for uncircumcised men.

What if I am circumcised? +

Results look excellent on circumcised anatomy. The primary consideration is the circumcision scar line, which can act as a "tether" affecting filler distribution. Dr. Tonthat personally examines skin mobility and scar tissue position during your consultation to ensure a smooth, balanced enhancement that works with your anatomy.

How much filler will I need? +

Most patients choose between 10ml and 20ml for their initial treatment. Every 5ml provides approximately a 0.5 inch improvement in girth. Larger anatomy requires more filler for the same visible gain. Your precise recommendation will be based on anatomy and goals discussed during consultation.

Want a preview before your consult? Try our free Filler Visualizer — enter your measurements and see projected girth at every volume.

Do you perform corrections from other providers? +

Yes. Dr. Tonthat frequently consults patients dissatisfied with other clinics — due to lumpiness, asymmetry, or poor placement. The process involves anatomical evaluation, material and layer analysis, an honest assessment of what's achievable, and a custom recovery plan.

Do you accommodate out-of-town patients? +

Yes — we are a destination clinic for patients across the country. Our Chico clinic is in the heart of Downtown Chico, surrounded by boutique hotels, fine dining, and local attractions.

Highlights: walkable coffee shops and restaurants, Bidwell Park (one of the largest municipal parks in the US), and highly-rated hotels within a few blocks. We share local recommendations during your initial virtual or phone consultation.

Why is there a $95 consultation fee? +

This covers a dedicated medical evaluation to ensure you're a safe candidate for the procedure. If you proceed with treatment on the same day, the full $95 is credited toward your procedure cost.

Sound Familiar?

"Normal" is not the same as optimal.

Standard reference ranges span everything from an 85-year-old to a 25-year-old athlete. Sitting at the low end of that range is technically "normal" — and it can still feel like a slow fade of everything that makes you feel like yourself.

01

Persistent Fatigue

Waking up tired no matter how much you sleep. Afternoon crashes. Coffee doing less and less.

02

Low Libido & Performance

Declining desire, weaker erections, and longer recovery — often the first and most noticeable signal.

03

Brain Fog & Low Drive

Trouble focusing, flat motivation, and a shorter fuse. The ambition is there — the horsepower isn't.

04

Muscle Loss Despite Training

Lifting consistently but losing strength and lean mass, with workouts that leave you drained instead of energized.

05

Stubborn Body Fat

Belly fat and love handles that ignore every diet — a classic signature of declining hormonal balance.

06

Poor Sleep & Recovery

Restless nights, slow recovery from workouts and injuries, and aches that linger longer than they used to.

Our Approach

Treat the patient,
not the lab value.

Optimization starts with comprehensive bloodwork — total and free testosterone, estradiol, thyroid, metabolic and safety markers — interpreted alongside your symptoms, goals, and history by a licensed physician.

From there, your protocol is built for you: dosing, delivery method, and ancillary support are tailored and then actively managed. This is not a subscription mill — it is concierge medicine with direct physician access.

Comprehensive baseline labs — hormones, thyroid, metabolic & safety markers
Personalized dosing & delivery — injections, creams, and ancillary support
Fertility-conscious protocols available for men planning a family
Regular follow-up labs and check-ins included in every 2-month cycle

What to Expect

A clear path back to full capacity.

01

Consultation & Baseline Labs

A thorough medical history, goal discussion, and initial bloodwork — reviewed one-on-one with your physician.

02

Personalized Protocol

Your regimen is designed around your labs, symptoms, and goals — not a one-size-fits-all template.

03

First Breakthrough — 2 to 3 Months

Most patients notice a meaningful shift in energy, drive, mood, and training response within the first cycle or two of consistent treatment.

04

Ongoing Optimization

Labs, check-ins, and adjustments continue every cycle. No contracts, no memberships — simply renew each 2-month cycle if it's working for you.

Beyond the Scale

Weight loss is the upstream fix for almost everything.

A smaller number on the scale is the least interesting part. Losing excess weight changes your physiology at every level — and it's often the single highest-leverage move available for how you feel, function, and age.

01

Metabolic Health

Improved insulin sensitivity, blood sugar control, blood pressure, and cholesterol — the markers that determine how well you age.

02

Fertility & Hormones

Excess fat disrupts hormonal balance in both men and women. Weight loss restores it — improving testosterone, cycle regularity, and fertility.

03

Energy

Steadier blood sugar, better sleep, and less metabolic drag translate into real, all-day energy — not caffeine-borrowed energy.

04

Lower Inflammation

Fat tissue is metabolically active and inflammatory. Reducing it quiets systemic inflammation linked to pain, fatigue, and chronic disease.

05

Back & Joint Relief

Every pound lost removes roughly four pounds of load from your knees and spine. Patients routinely report less back and joint pain within months.

06

Confidence & Longevity

Body recomposition you can see, backed by risk-factor improvements you can measure — compounding returns for decades.

Why Tirzepatide

Willpower was never
the problem.

Tirzepatide works on two incretin pathways at once — GLP-1 and GIP. The result: the constant "food noise" quiets down, portions naturally shrink, and your body stops fighting you at every meal.

Dosing is titrated gradually by your physician to keep side effects minimal, with regular check-ins and labs included in every 2-month cycle. Medications are fulfilled through partnering licensed compounding pharmacies.

Dual-pathway (GIP + GLP-1) — often better tolerated than first-generation GLP-1s
Once-weekly self-injection with simple, gradual titration
Food noise and cravings quiet within the first weeks
Physician-monitored — dosing adjusted to you, not a template
Check-ins & labs included every cycle; no contracts or memberships
Protein & training guidance to protect lean mass while you lose fat
Your Timeline

What results actually look like.

01

Weeks 1–4 — The Quiet

Titration begins. The most common first report isn't weight loss — it's silence. Food noise fades, cravings lose their grip, and portions shrink without a fight.

02

Months 2–3 — Noticeable Results

This is when most patients see a meaningful breakthrough: clothes fit differently, energy climbs, and the scale confirms what the mirror already shows.

03

Months 6–9 — Significant Recomposition

With consistent protocol adherence, this is where significant body recomposition happens — meaningful fat loss, a visibly different silhouette, and improved metabolic markers.

04

Beyond — Keep It

We taper, maintain, or transition your protocol deliberately — protecting lean mass and building the habits that make results permanent, not rented.

Who This Is For

Peptides are for maxxing.

Looksmaxxing. Sexmaxxing. Recovery, longevity, the last visible 10%. Peptides are the cherry on top — for people who are already doing the work and want an edge that diet and training alone can't reach.

The Cherry on Top

The final layer of an optimized life.

Peptides don't replace the foundation — training, nutrition, sleep, and hormones come first. But once the foundation is built and you've hit the ceiling of what traditional methods can deliver, peptides are how you go from optimized to maxxed. Three areas dominate the field today.

01

Weight Loss

The frontier beyond today's GLP-1s — for deeper fat loss at lower doses, and for athletes who refuse to lose muscle on a cut.

Third-Generation · Triple Agonist

Retatrutide

Older GLP-1s work mainly by making you full — sometimes just bloated. Retatrutide is "third-generation": beyond suppressing appetite, it actually increases your metabolism, which allows meaningful results at lower dosages.

  • Powerful for weight loss — and prized by athletes in cut phases, where preserving performance matters
  • Low microdoses used to improve energy, control food noise, and decrease inflammation
  • Lower doses, fewer of the "full and bloated" effects that plague older GLP-1s
02

Body Recomposition

Trading fat for lean mass, and turning back the clock on recovery — the looksmaxxing pillar.

FDA-Approved · Egrifta®

Tesamorelin

A growth-hormone-releasing peptide with FDA approval for targeted fat reduction — the closest thing to an approved "fat recomposition" agent. Stimulates your own natural GH pulses to shift visceral fat while supporting lean mass.

The Wolverine Stack

TB-500 + BPC-157

The most famous regenerative pairing in the peptide world — nicknamed for a reason. Studied for anti-aging and regenerative benefits: tendon, joint, muscle, and gut repair, and recovery that feels years younger.

03

Sexual Health

Sexmaxxing, properly: desire is neurological — and there's a peptide for that.

FDA-Approved as Vyleesi®

PT-141 (Bremelanotide)

Unlike pills that only work on blood flow, PT-141 works upstream — on the brain's melanocortin arousal pathways — to drive libido itself. Its FDA-approved formulation, Vyleesi®, validates the mechanism; physician-guided use makes it practical for both men and women.

What we offer is consultation on the current clinical research and professional, personalized monitoring — labs, physician oversight, and honest guidance — for patients who wish to pursue peptides safely and intelligently rather than alone.

Who This Is For
"For those who have hit plateaus — who have taken diet, exercise, and discipline as far as they go, and want the cherry on top."

Health Optimization exists for patients traditional methods left behind. Peptides are the finishing layer for those already committed to the work.
