Surgical enlargement of the penis is a radical method that helps men get rid of complexes, sexual fears, low self-esteem, and other problems related to insufficient length or thickness of the genitals.
There are some signs of action. Due to the pathology of the micropenis, a medical procedure is performed - the length of the penis at maximum elongation or in an erect state does not exceed 4 cm. However, manipulation can also be performed at the request of a man if he is not satisfied with the size of his penis.
Before surgery, the man should have an examination. This includes laboratory tests and instrumental diagnostics. This is necessary to rule out contraindications and to minimize the likelihood of complications.
The small length / thickness of the penis is surgically treated in a variety of ways. The choice of method is determined by the doctor's training and experience, the patient's physiological characteristics and other nuances. Consider when surgery is needed, what techniques does your doctor use to lengthen and thicken your penis?
Indications and contraindications for surgery
Urologists and andrologists note that insufficient penis size is a psychological problem rather than a functional problem. An 8-centimeter-long penis is enough for full sexual intercourse and conception. But this information does not comfort the stronger sex, as the quality of sex is highly dependent on the size of the phallus.
There are some signs of penis enlargement surgery. However, statistics show that plastic surgery clinics are more commonly treated by men with an average genital size of 13 to 15 centimeters.
In the modern world, there are no strict criteria that would determine the norm or variation in the size of an organ. The point is that the thickness and length match the man and his partner. Penis correction is performed according to the following medical indications:
- Peyronie's disease.
- Abnormal development (epispadias, hypospadias).
- Consequences of penile injury.
- Age-related decrease in tissue elasticity.
- Lack of fatty tissue under the skin, which causes the penis to thin.
Designation of aesthetic signs caused by a man’s mental disorder. In this situation, the surgery is performed only in cases where the work with a psychotherapist or sex therapist has not produced the desired results.
Contraindications to surgery: neoplastic tumors in the urogenital system, coagulation disorders, bacterial diseases, exacerbation of chronic prostate diseases, venereal diseases.
Patients with a history of type 1 or type 2 diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, vascular atherosclerosis, autoimmune diseases and organ CNS disorders are at increased risk of postoperative complications.
You need to reconsider the pros and cons before operating.
Penis extension - ligamentotomy
You must prepare before surgery. This includes examining the patient's medical contraindications. They determine the body's response to the drugs used for anesthesia - this is necessary to rule out an allergic reaction.
The penis extension technique is based on an incision made along the suture of the scrotum or in the pubic circle (pubic technology). An increase in length is observed due to the release of a hidden part of the reproductive organ that is "hidden under the pubic bone. "The free space that the surgeon releases during the manipulation is filled with connective tissue - formed during the regeneration of the tissues in the postoperative period.
The seam heals quickly at the incision site, no scars / scars remain. Manipulation is quite safe as it does not affect the blood vessels and muscles, the procedure does not affect potency and erectile function.
After the operation, pain syndrome, swelling of the reproductive organ is revealed. Taking painkillers will relieve the pain. The patient must then wear an extension cord - a special device that helps consolidate the result. If the device is not worn, the effectiveness of the surgical treatment will be reduced to zero. The duration of wearing is determined individually - it varies from 3 weeks to 2-3 months.
Ligamentotomy has the following advantages:
- It does not affect erectile function;
- It does not affect the organs of the urogenital system;
- Postoperative complications are rare;
- The enlargement of the phallus is a rapid result.
The cost of the surgery depends on the health care institution, the pricing policy of the clinic, the experience and qualifications of the surgeon.
Increasing the thickness of the penis
Men want to increase not only the length but also the thickness of their penis. "Enlargement" of masculinity seems to be a more complicated procedure because the penis is equipped with an advanced innervation and circulatory system.
The issue of penile thickening should be approached consciously, weighing all the risks, as an unsuccessful surgery can take an intimate life if the doctor accidentally or reaches a nerve bundle.
Before enlarging your penis, your doctor will prescribe a full examination. In addition, the patient should consult an anesthesiologist and a cardiologist. If the man is in good health, a day of surgery will be designated.
There are several methods in plastic surgery to increase the thickness of the penis. They are based on the subcutaneous transfer of various substances:
| Mode of operation | Features a |
|---|---|
| Transplantation of the lobe of own tissues | Remove some of the muscle from the anterior abdominal wall and place it under the skin of the phallus |
| Subcutaneous introduction of a biological matrix made of a polymeric material | A matrix is implanted in the penis. Over time, it is overgrown with tissue, which enlarges the penis. |
| Introduction of fillers - adipose tissue or synthetic materials | The doctor will distribute the liquid graft evenly around the perimeter of the penis, which will thicken the |
The choice of method depends on the physiological characteristics of the patient. The very first method used to enlarge the penis was to transplant its own tissues. Such manipulation gives a guaranteed result in increasing the thickness of the penis that lasts a lifetime.
The implanted tissues become a complete part of the penis over a period of time, having their own blood supply. Cons include the risk of rejection, prolonged sexual abstinence, and constant medical supervision.
Most often, a biological matrix is implanted. Within 12 months, the substance is completely rooted, and tissues and blood vessels grow into it, resulting in a life-long effect.
You can have sex no earlier than 2-2, 5 months after the procedure.
Possible complications
Complications are rare with penis lengthening. Against the background of an increase in penile thickness - a little more often, but the risk can be reduced if you follow all the doctor’s recommendations. However, a medical error during surgery or failure to follow the rules of the rehabilitation period may increase the likelihood of complications.
The consequences can be divided into early and late stages. In the first version, it means pain syndrome - this is the version of the norm.
When the infection enters, inflammation develops up to a purulent process. Treatment is revision surgery.
After the procedure, the sensitivity of the head of the penis may decrease, which affects the feelings during intimacy. This side effect usually goes away on its own within six months.
Late complications:
- Changing the angle of an erection.
- Weak erection.
- Shortening of the penis.
- Phallus deformity.
- Premature ejaculation.
- Soft tissue necrosis.
The selection of the clinic and the treating physician should be carefully approached to rule out complications.
Plastic surgery uses complex techniques that require the responsibility, attentiveness, and highly trained physician, as well as modern tools.
