Penis enlargement is one of the most popular male surgeries that can be performed both for cosmetic purposes and for medical reasons.
In the latter case, we are talking about the following violations:
- Cavernous fibrosis, in which the tissues of the penis are partially replaced by cartilage;
- Underdevelopment of the penis;
- Erectile dysfunction caused by dysfunction of the vessels of the penis or Peyronie disease;
- Endocrine impotence developed in the setting of diabetes mellitus;
- A history of unsuccessful operations on the penis;
- The need to eliminate the consequences of operations on the prostate, bladder, rectum.
Penis enlargement has many contraindications:
- Severe diabetes mellitus;
- Oncology;
- Venereal diseases;
- Exacerbation of chronic diseases of the genitourinary system (prostatitis, urethritis, cystitis);
- Genital herpes;
- Presence of ulcers and wounds on the penis.
- Blood clotting disorders;
- The patient has mental disorders.
Surgical lengthening of the penis
Surgical enlargement of the penis can be performed in several ways. Thus, an operation called "ligamentotomy" allows you to increase the hanging (free) section of the penis by reducing its perineal (hidden) section. In this case, the elements of the ligament apparatus are corrected, which keeps the penis in the perianal area. In fact, in this case, the original size of the penis remains unchanged, since there is only a redistribution of length.
An alternative to penis enlargement is implantation into the internal space of the internal endoprosthesis body, which is obviously longer. Such endoprosthesis may be accompanied by complete mobilization of the legs of the penis, but it should be borne in mind that this step causes inevitable damage to the deep cavernous arteries and genital nerves. As a result, it is possible to develop erectile dysfunction, so such surgery to enlarge the penis is not recommended for absolutely healthy men without concomitant erectile dysfunction.
Thickening of the penis
Currently, it is the most popular technique for increasing the thickness of the penisLipofilling(Transplant your own adipose tissue). This penis enlargement surgery is performed under general anesthesia. In the first stage of surgical intervention, fat cells receive special skin punctures in the donor areas (abdomen, thighs) using a syringe and a hollow needle (cannula).
Due to the rounded end of the canola, large vessels and nerves are not damaged when the needle moves under the skin. In a plastic syringe, only fat cells are absorbed, as well as a small amount of blood that is produced when small vessels are damaged. The special treatment of the obtained fat suspension allows you to get a "clean" fatty tissue, which is then placed through the micropuncture with thin layers under the skin of the penis.
After the operation, the punctures are sutured and sealed with surgical tape. Lipofilling allows you to increase the diameter of the penis by 0, 5-1, 5 cm, and due to the force of gravity, unstable penis in the future may increase by 1-2 cm.
Another technique of penile thickening involves moving the rectal abdominal muscle under the skin of the penis, during which axial blood circulation is maintained. The flap obtained during the operation seems to be wrapped around the penis along its entire length. With this approach, the possibility of graft rejection is significantly reduced because the muscles simply collapse on the full feeding vessel. Such a growth of the penis in the clinic implies a refusal of the patient to be physically active for six months (violation of this recommendation may lead to the development of a postoperative hernia of the anterior abdominal wall).
Penis enlargement
This manipulation can be performed both with penis enlargement and as a separate procedure. The most common reasons for penis enlargement in the clinic are:
- Discrepancy between the diameter of the trunk and the head of the penis;
- Inability to lengthen the penis using an enlargement due to its insufficient size (impossible to fix the device correctly);
- The need to maintain the correct proportions of the enlarged penis.
One of the most popular ways to enlarge oneself is to insert a special matrix between it and the cavernous body, which increases its diameter both in the erect and at rest position. The main disadvantage of this technique is the high risk of necrosis of the tissues of the penis, because during surgery, the supply blood vessels are inevitably cut.
A safer method is to inject a gel containing hyaluronic acid into the glandular penis. This approach allows you to achieve the required volume in a non-erect state, which is an important point when enlarging the penis. Unfortunately, after 1-1, 5 years, the gel gradually dissolves, so this procedure must be repeated periodically.
Penis enlargement: pros and cons
A "list of arguments" for penis enlargement surgery includes:
- The simplicity and safety of this surgical intervention;
- Positive impact on men's sexual and psychological health;
- Improving the quality of intimate life;
- Maintain increased penis length throughout life.
Penis enlargement surgery has its opponents,
Which gives the following arguments:
- The possibilities for surgical intervention are quite limited - thus, the growth of the penis does not exceed 5 cm in length and 6 cm in width;
- Traces of surgery may remain in the operating body;
- Short duration of surgery results (with penile thickening, the resulting volume, at best, remains for several years);
- Possible complications (bleeding, infection in the wound, pain during erection, postoperative wound suppression).
Results of the operation
Surgical enlargement of the penis, a review of which can be found on many Internet sites, allows you to increase its length from 1 to 3. 5 cm. Penis enlargement with a special stretcher allows you to increase this figure up to 2 cm.
We must remember that surgery without an extender is ineffective and the length of the penis does not change. In most cases, the lack of results after the intervention is due to the fact that the stretcher was either not used or was used incorrectly.
The effectiveness of using the extension depends on the following conditions:
- The initial length of the penis (the longer, the better the result can be achieved). This is why the most impressive results can be obtained after a ligamentotomy;
- Correctness of the anatomy of the penis (affects the ability to fix the extension);
- Age (tissue elasticity and elasticity decreases with age);
- Patient durability (the more often and longer the device is used, the better the effect can be achieved).
