In the last few years, penis enlargement surgery has become one of the most popular and sought-after plastic procedures. Wall plastic surgery is a reliable and effective method for correcting the length and diameter of the male genital organ.
The one and a half hour operation makes it possible to increase the length of the phallus by 4-5 cm and its volume by 3-4 cm.
Modern surgery offers many methods to increase the size of the penis. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages that every man who decides to have a phalloplasty should know.
According to statistics, penis enlargement surgery is the only possible and effective method for correcting the parameters of the reproductive organ, the result of which lasts throughout life.
Correction methods
Before the surgical enlargement of the penis, many men decide to use drugs and massagers, which not only do not give the desired results, but can also be harmful to health. According to statistics, more than 30% of men who have used dubious quality pills and ointments to enlarge their penis are subsequently treated for erectile dysfunction and reduced potency.
Today, penis enlargement surgery is the safest method, with the help of which it is really possible to increase the length and volume of the penis by a few cherished centimeters. Plastic surgery offers several basic ways to correct the shape and linear dimensions of the phallus, which include:
- ligamentotomy;
- lipofilling;
- muscle tissue transplantation;
- penile prostheses.
It should be understood that surgical enlargement of the penis is possible only in case of direct indications. Not all men who are not satisfied with the size of their penis can undergo phalloplasty. According to most andrologists, dissatisfaction with the size of the reproductive organ is largely a psychological rather than a functional problem.
Indications for surgery
Surgical lengthening of the phallus is possible only in case of certain physiological and psychological indications. Correcting the size and shape of the penis allows solving not only aesthetic but also functional problems. Surgical enlargement of the penis is recommended in the following cases:
- cavernous fibrosis;
- hypospadias;
- penile injuries;
- Peyronie's disease;
- epispadias;
- age-related degenerations;
- micropenis syndrome.
In the absence of obvious functional abnormalities, penis enlargement surgery is only performed if the length of the genital organ in erection does not reach 8 cm.
It should be noted that serious psychological problems associated with phallus-sized complexes can affect not only a person's psycho-emotional state, but also erectile function. According to andrologists, psychological problems are a good reason for wall plastic surgery and increasing the size of the penis.
Ligamentotomy
Any type of surgery to lengthen the penis is called a ligamentotomy. The surgery is performed on an outpatient basis only under general anesthesia. In addition, all necessary surgical procedures take an average of no more than 40-50 minutes. According to plastic surgeons, the lengthening of the genital organ is possible if the suspensory ligament that "holds" the penis in the male body is cut.
Thanks to the ligamentotomy, the length of the phallus increases by an average of 3-4 cm. Excision of the soft parts at the base of the genital organ can significantly increase the length of the working part (trunk) of the penis, as a result of which it becomes visually longer. As practice shows, some parts of the suspensory ligament are completely regenerated already 2-3 weeks after the resection.
Ligamentotomy does not affect a man's fertility or erectile function in any way.
2-3 days after ligamentotomy. day, the patient is discharged home and recommendations are made for the care of the operated penis and the subsequent wearing of the extender. Due to the good blood supply of the lumbar area, the patient undergoes a relatively short rehabilitation course, which is 1-2 weeks on average. Despite the impressive photos on the Internet, plastic surgery is well tolerated by men.
Penis enlargement operations
Not all men seek to increase the length of the reproductive organ. According to statistics, more than 47% of patients who turn to plastic surgeons want to change the diameter of the penis. In this case, there are two ways to enlarge the penis by surgery:
- Lipofilling is a plastic surgery in which fat is injected from the buttocks or abdomen into the subcutaneous tissue of the penis. With the help of a long needle, the surgeon evenly distributes the fatty tissue along the axis of the genital organ, as a result of which its width increases by an average of 2-2. 5 cm;
- muscle transplantation is a complex operation during which muscle tissue taken from the abdominal wall is transplanted into the penis; During the procedure, the surgeon sews blood vessels to the implanted tissue, which then ensures normal blood supply to the reproductive organ.
Lipofilling is a simple procedure that gives a temporary effect, so in order to maintain the desired result, the operation is performed at least once a year.
Soft tissue transplantation is one of the most difficult and quite painful operations. However, enlarging the penis in this way allows you to keep the results for the rest of your life. In addition, thanks to the transplant, the diameter of the phallus can be increased by at least 3-4 cm.
Prosthetics
The surgical enlargement of the penis in case of erectile dysfunction is called penile prosthesis. Surgical intervention is performed only in the presence of absolute indications, including impotence, micropenis syndrome and excessive curvature of the phallus during erection. Implantation of a prosthesis made of modern flexible materials enables the restoration of erectile function and, accordingly, the normalization of a man's sexual life.
A penile prosthesis is a complex surgical procedure that is contraindicated for patients with serious somatic diseases.
The surgical enlargement of the penis is performed by implanting two silicone or vinyl penile prostheses into the cavernous body of the genital organ. Flexible materials have a so-called memory ability. If necessary, the shape of the genital organ can be adjusted independently. However, experts warn that when silicone and vinyl prostheses are implanted, the phallus is constantly in an erect state, which causes a lot of discomfort for patients.
Two- and three-component hydraulic prostheses are considered more successful. The special devices consist of a pressure pump and stiffness cylinders implanted in the scrotum. The tanks are connected by silicone tubes, thanks to which air is pumped from the pump into the cylinders installed in the cavernous bodies of the penis. The elasticity of the enlarged penis is controlled by squeezing the pump, i. e. scrotum To relieve the erection, you simply need to press the special shut-off valve, which is located on the other side of the pump.
The results of the operation
In the past few years, plastic surgery has made tremendous progress thanks to the advent of polymer materials and computer technology. Enlargement of the penis by surgery allows you to achieve the desired result within a few weeks, during which the patient undergoes a rehabilitation course.
According to practical observations, the operation enables the lengthening of the phallus by an average of 3-5 cm.
The degree of penis elongation is influenced by the individual characteristics of the structure of the male external genitalia.
The longer the suspensory ligament of the phallus that can be cut, the more obvious the result will be after phalloplasty.
Doctors draw patients' attention to the fact that with the help of surgical interventions, the genital organ can be lengthened by a maximum of 3 cm. For better results, it is advisable to wear a special stretcher for the male penis, called an extender, during rehabilitation. The device is designed to stretch the suspensory ligament of the penis, with the help of which the length of the organ increases by an additional 1. 5-2 cm.
Contraindications
As already mentioned, surgery to enlarge the penis is performed only in case of severe indications. There is also a rather extensive list of contraindications for phalloplasty, which andrologists take into account during the preliminary examination of the patient and the preparation of the medical report. The plastic surgeon does not undertake surgery if the following contraindications exist:
- impaired blood coagulation;
- cardiovascular pathologies;
- diabetes;
- sexually transmitted infections;
- exacerbation of a chronic disease;
- urinary tract diseases;
- oncological diseases.
After the patient has undergone all the necessary instrumental diagnostics, the doctor decides on the need for phalloplasty. In the absence of serious contraindications, the specialist sets the day of the operation and discusses all the nuances of the rehabilitation therapy with the patient.
