Increasing the length or width of the penis can affect a man's psycho-emotional health.A small penis often causes ridicule from the straight half of humanity, and can also cause neurotic conditions and serious mental illness in most patients.One of the effective methods for changing the size of a man's penis is ligamentotomy - an operation to enlarge the penis.

What methods exist for penis enlargement?

There are many fabricated rumors and legends about the male penis, but it should be understood that from a physiological point of view, the normal length of the penis falls within the framework of 12-18 cm in the erect state.

Effective penis enlargement is possible not only surgically, but also through various methods that do not require surgical intervention in the male body.These include:

  • The use of vacuum pumps promotes significant blood flow to the male penis.After achieving a stable erection, the penis is compressed at the base with all kinds of devices, for example, latex rings.This technique prevents the flow of blood from the cavernous bodies of the penis and its length increases by several centimeters compared to a normal physiological erection without various aids.However, it should be remembered that the use of vacuum pumps is not a therapeutic method, but is based on the physiological characteristics of the male body.After stopping the use of vacuum devices, the penis immediately regains its usual size.Note that the disadvantage of using pumps can be swelling of the organ, the presence of hematomas due to the rupture of blood vessels, as well as impaired erectile function of the penis.
  • The use of all kinds of "special" weights, equipment and exercises aimed at penis enlargement is nothing more than advertising campaigns by dubious manufacturers who produce "effective" devices that guarantee instant results.The male sex organ cannot be pumped or stretched using weights or dumbbells.Their use can cause damage to the organ or cause tears in the ligaments that hold the penis.The "lengthening" of the penis can be performed only after surgical treatment under the supervision of a medical specialist using special extenders (combined enlargement method).Such devices can be used without surgery.Their efficiency is quite high.

Tip:To avoid losing money and subsequent disappointments, you should not buy all kinds of creams for external use and other "healing" drugs aimed at increasing the size of the penis.They carry no therapeutic load and are completely ineffective.

Ligamentotomy

How many centimeters can a penis be enlarged

Ligamentotomy can be justified if the length of the penis does not exceed 10 cm in the erect state.

This operation aims to enlarge the male reproductive organ by cutting and then fixing the pelvic ligament, which is responsible for holding the penis.Thanks to this method, doctors manage to free about 3-5 cm from the inner part of the penis.Previously, similar surgical techniques were performed with circumcision of the foreskin in men.Modern methods make it possible to avoid this and preserve it with a parallel growth of the reproductive organ.

Ligamentotomy is considered a simple operation (not as complex as amputation of the penis) and takes about half an hour.It should be noted that when the reproductive organ is enlarged, surgery on the testicles in men can be performed in parallel (for example, if pathologies are detected, varicocele surgery can be prescribed), however, the feasibility of such an intervention can only be determined by the attending physician.After penile plastic surgery, the patient can stay in the urology department for about a day.After a period of two weeks after the ligamentotomy, the stitches are removed.

Tip:To avoid divergence of surgical sutures in the penis, it is recommended to abstain from sexual intercourse after ligamentotomy for up to 3 weeks.

Is it possible to increase the thickness of the penis?

It is necessary to abstain from intercourse for 4-5 weeks in order not to damage the penis

Increasing the thickness of the male reproductive organ is possible.To do this, an operation with low trauma is performed: the skin of the penis is pierced with a special instrument to insert the patient's fatty tissue or a special gel.Once done, a protective bandage is applied to the penis.

Note that this operation can lead to the localization of adipose tissue in a certain place of the penis, which leads to its unevenness and tuberosity of the organ.In order to avoid complications and tissue inflammation, various polymer penile prostheses are used to increase the thickness of the penis, ensuring an aesthetic appearance of the organ and not affecting the deterioration of the quality of its functionality.

Features of the postoperative period

The most effective way to lengthen the penis is considered a combined technique, which includes the use of an extender after surgery and the use of jelqing (performing special massages for the reproductive organ to change its length).Let's see the features of these methods:

  • Using an extender after surgery can significantly improve the effect of organ enlargement.In addition, this device helps correct its curvature and restore the correct anatomical position.The younger the patient, the more obvious the effect of using the combined method.
  • As for jelqing, this massage technique should be performed after surgical lengthening of the organ for 2-3 months every day for at least 1 hour a day.Manipulations with massage on the penis are performed by the patient with his hands in an elevated state of the organ and they include stretching it.Jelqing increases the blood supply to the penis and increases its size.

Before you decide to take such a drastic step as increasing the volume of the penis through surgery, you should think about the fact that, despite its effectiveness, no specialist will be able to predict the final result.Possible postoperative complications include penile tissue scarring and infection.In addition, a decrease in the sensitivity of the organ often occurs, a change in the position of the penis during erection is possible, since its original anatomical position is interrupted, and even the development of impotence (extremely rare).

No more than a third of all patients are satisfied with the result of surgical enlargement of the male reproductive organ.As practice shows, an organ can be lengthened by an amount from 1 to 4 cm.No practicing surgeon can give exact guarantees.
