It can be repeated a thousand times that the size of the penis is not important for adequate sexual intercourse and satisfying sexual partners, but for many representatives of the dominant gender this topic is very painful.A man's desire to have a more impressive dignity is not so far-fetched, because in the arsenal of modern cosmetic medicine there is a way to fundamentally solve this problem - to increase the length or thickness of the penis through surgical procedures.
The remaining methods (hardware, medications, penis enlargement nozzles), while positioned as effective, show unsatisfactory results in most cases.Radical surgical methods provide a 100% guarantee of success.
When surgery is justified
A man's desire to enlarge his penis is fundamental to the decision to undergo surgery.This is despite the fact that most clients who come to plastic surgery clinics for this purpose do not require correction of the size of their reproductive organs.
There are no strict limits on the length and thickness of the male reproductive organ.Exceptions are made when the length of the erect penis of an adult male is less than 8 cm.This phenomenon is called micropenis and is a reasonable indication for surgical methods to enlarge the penis.
Plastic surgery is not a treatment for erectile dysfunction and does not affect how well an erect penis will stand after surgery.
Surgical correction of penis size and shape is performed to address many physical and morphological problems.Therefore, for medical reasons, penile traction surgery is performed for the following painful conditions:
- consequences of trauma;
- Congenital lesions (hypospadias, epispadias);
- Peyronie's disease.
Functional indications include:
- geriatric syndrome;
- Lack of subcutaneous fat, leading to thinning of the penis;
- The elasticity of organ tissues decreases.
In addition, when deciding whether to undergo penis enlargement surgery, in some cases aesthetic indications due to psychological disorders of the patient (penile dysmorphia phobia or micropenis syndrome) are taken into account.In this case, surgery to change the size of the penis is performed only if the work of the psychotherapist does not produce positive results.
Penis length correction method
During the first consultation, the doctor will tell the patient what methods can be used to perform penile plastic surgery, the nuances of the procedure, how long the procedure will take and how long recovery will take.The importance of initial workup to rule out contraindications to surgical intervention is discussed.It will certainly cover possible complications, side effects, and what negative aspects may occur if medical advice is not followed.
At the first appointment, tissue issues are also discussed, namely the cost of penis enlargement surgery and the approximate cost of treatment during recovery.
To increase the length of the penis, a ligamentotomy method is often used.The technique is based on the specificities of the organ's anatomy and involves cutting the suspensory ligament that connects the corpora cavernosa to the pubic bone.The length of the penis increases due to the release within it.
Penis enlargement surgery is performed under general anesthesia.The surgical procedure lasts about an hour and includes the following:
- The surgical area in the groin area is treated with antiseptic and covered with sterile surgical drape;
- The surgeon cuts through the skin and cuts the ligaments that connect the penis to the pubic bone;
- The incision is closed with catgut (absorbable surgical suture);
- Apply a sterile bandage to the wound area.
After this type of penile plastic surgery, the patient is hospitalized for 3 to 5 days and is monitored around the clock by medical staff.Surgery to increase penis size using ligamentotomy can allow you to gain between 2 cm and 6 cm above the initial length, depending on the physiological characteristics of the penile structure.During the recovery period, in order to achieve the most positive results, patients need to wear special accessories - extenders.
Surgical methods to increase penis thickness
Surgery to enlarge the penis is more technically complex and time-consuming than surgical techniques aimed at increasing the length of the organ.The risk of complications is much higher, so patients must stay in the clinic for 10 days or more while recovering.Therefore, the cost of this penis enlargement surgery is slightly higher.
Surgery to increase the diameter of the penile shaft is performed by transferring the patient's own donor tissue under the skin of the organ or by implanting artificial material into the penis.Fat and muscle tissue, special gels, fillers and biodegradable matrices are used as implants.
For example, lipofilling is a minimally invasive plastic surgery procedure to increase the diameter of the male reproductive organ by transferring fatty tissue under the skin of the penis.The required amount of donor material is collected through liposuction of the patient's pubic bone.The fat is processed using special techniques and then injected under the skin of the penis along the entire length of the penis.
With fat filling, the diameter of the penis is increased by 1-2 cm.The effect lasts for 1.5-2 years.The procedure can then be repeated at the man's request.In a similar way, in aesthetic medicine clinics they surgically increase the diameter of the penis using a complex of subcutaneous fat tissue from the buttocks.
The advantage of muscle tissue transplantation is that the surgery can increase the thickness of the penis by more than 2 cm.The disadvantages of this method are greater trauma, long recovery period, and high risk of side effects.
Possible complications
If mistakes are made during plastic surgery, or if patients neglect to follow medical advice during recovery, the risk of various complications increases.In the first 1-2 months, the following symptoms may occur: bleeding at the surgical site, wound infection, swelling of the penis that does not subside for a long time, pain during erection, and decreased sensitivity of the glans penis.
The most common late complications include:
- Violation of vertical angle (leaning forward or downward);
- The penis is unstable during friction;
- shortening of the penile shaft;
- bending and/or deformation of organs;
- erectile dysfunction;
- Dissolution of the implant or necrosis of the donor material;
- Loss of sensitivity in the head.
To avoid such phenomena, you need to be careful when choosing a doctor.Plastic surgery uses complex techniques that require the surgeon to be responsible, precise and have an impeccable command of surgical technique.You can only entrust the manipulation of your body to specialists who have proven their expertise in the field of aesthetic medicine.
