Penis enlargement surgery - features and consequences of ligamentotomy

An increase in the length or width of the penis can affect a man's psycho-emotional health. A small penis often causes ridicule of the beautiful half of humanity, and is also capable of causing neurotic states and serious mental illnesses in most patients. One of the most effective methods of changing the size of manhood is ligamentotomy - an operation to enlarge the penis.

What are the methods of enlarging the penis

There are a lot of rumors and fictional legends around the male penis, but it must be understood that from a physiological point of view, the normal length of the penis fits within the framework of 12-18 cm in a state of erection.

Effective penis enlargement is possible not only by surgery, but also through various methods that do not require surgical intervention in the man's body. These include:

  • The use of vacuum pumps promotes significant blood flow to the man's penis. After achieving a stable erection, the penis is squeezed at the very base by all kinds of devices, for example, latex rings. This technique prevents the outflow of blood from the cavernous bodies of the penis, and its length increases by several centimeters in comparison with 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 instantly takes on its usual size. Note that the disadvantage of using pumps can be swelling of the organ, the presence of hematomas due to rupture of blood vessels, as well as impaired erectile ability of the penis.
  • The use of all kinds of weighting agents, devices and "special" exercises aimed at increasing the penis is nothing more than advertising campaigns by dubious manufacturers who produce "effective" devices that guarantee instant results. The male genitals cannot be pumped up or stretched with weights or dumbbells. Their use can injure the organ or cause tearing of the ligaments that hold the penis. "Pulling" the penis can be performed only after surgical treatment under the supervision of a treating specialist using special extenders (combined method of enlargement). Such devices can be used without surgery. Their effectiveness is quite high.

Advice:in order to avoid wasting money and subsequent disappointments, you should not purchase all kinds of creams for external use and other "healing" drugs designed to increase the volume of the penis. They do not carry any therapeutic load and are absolutely ineffective.

Ligamentotomy

by how many centimeters you can increase the penis

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

This operation is aimed at increasing the male genital organ by transection and subsequent fixation of the pelvic ligament, which is responsible for holding the penis. Thanks to this method, doctors manage to release about 3-5 cm of the inner part of the penis. Previously, similar surgical techniques were performed with circumcision of the foreskin of the penis in men. Modern methods allow you to avoid this and preserve it with a parallel increase in the genital organ.

Ligamentotomy is considered a simple operation (not as difficult as amputation of the penis) and lasts about half an hour. It should be noted that with an increase in the genital organ, an operation on the testes in men can be performed in parallel (for example, if pathologies are found, an operation on a varicocele can be prescribed), however, the advisability of such an intervention can only be determined by the attending physician. After the plastic surgery of the penis, the patient can stay at the hospital of the urological department for about a day. After a two-week period after the ligamentotomy, the stitches are removed.

Advice:in order to avoid the divergence of the surgical sutures on the penis, it is recommended to abstain from sexual relations after ligamentotomy for up to 3 weeks.

Is it possible to increase the thickness of the penis

problems in bed due to penis size

For 4-5 weeks it is necessary to refrain from intercourse in order not to harm the penis

An increase in the thickness of the male genital organ is possible. For this, a low-traumatic operation is carried out: a puncture of the skin of the penis is carried out with a special tool for injecting the patient's own fatty tissue or a special gel. After it is carried out, 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 irregularities and tuberosity of the organ. To avoid complications and tissue inflammation, various polymer phalloprostheses are used to increase the thickness of the penis, which provide an aesthetic appearance of the organ and do not affect the deterioration of the quality of its functionality.

Features of the postoperative period

The most effective way to lengthen the penis is considered to be a combined technique, which involves the use of an extender after surgery and the use of jelqing (carrying out special massages for the genital organ to change its length). Consider the features of these methods:

  • Using an extender after surgery can significantly improve the effect of organ enlargement. In addition, this apparatus helps to correct its curvature and restore the correct anatomical position. The younger the patient, the more noticeable the effect of using the combined method.
  • As for jelqing, this massage technique should be carried out after surgical lengthening of the organ for 2-3 months, at least 1 hour a day every day. Massage manipulations on the penis are carried out by the patient with his hands in an erect state of the organ and they consist in stretching it. With jelqing, there is an increased blood supply to the penis and its increase in size.

Before deciding on such a cardinal step as an increase in the volume of the penis by surgery, one should think about the fact that, despite its effectiveness, no specialist will be able to foresee the final result. Possible postoperative complications include scarring of the tissues of the penis and infection. In addition, there is often a decrease in the sensitivity of the organ, it is possible to change the position of the penis during erection, since its anatomical initial position is disturbed, and even the development of impotence (extremely rare).

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