Penis enlargement surgery - features and consequences of ligamentotomy

Man looking at penis size

Increasing the length or width of the penis can affect a man's psycho-emotional health. A small penis often makes fun of the fair half of humanity and can also cause neurotic conditions and serious mental illness in most patients. One of the effective ways to change the size of manhood is ligamentotomy - an operation to enlarge the penis.

What are the penis enlargement methods

There are many rumors and fictional legends surrounding the male penis, but it must be understood that from a physiological point of view, the normal length of the penis in an erect state fits within the 12 to 18 cm framework.

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

  • The use of vacuum pumps promotes significant blood flow to the man's penis. After a stable erection has been achieved, all kinds of devices, such as latex rings, compress the penis at the very bottom. This technique prevents the drainage of blood from the cavernous bodies of the penis and increases by a few 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 based on the physiological characteristics of the male body. After the use of vacuum devices is stopped, the penis immediately takes on its usual size. Note that the disadvantage of using pumps may be swelling of the organ, the presence of bruises due to a rupture of blood vessels, as well as impaired erectile function of the penis.
  • The use of all kinds of weights, devices, and "special" exercises for penis enlargement is nothing more than advertising campaigns from dubious manufacturers who make "effective" devices that guarantee immediate results. The male genitals cannot be inflated or stretched with weights or dumbbells. Using them can injure the organ or cause the ligaments that hold the penis to tear. "Pulling" the penis can only be carried out after surgical treatment under the supervision of a treating specialist using special extenders (combined enlargement method). Such devices can be used without surgery. Their effectiveness is quite high.

Advice:To avoid wasted money and subsequent disappointment, do not buy all types of topical creams and other "remedies" designed to increase the volume of the penis. They do not carry any therapeutic burden and are completely ineffective.

Ligamentotomy

how many centimeters can you enlarge the penis

A ligamentotomy can be justified if the length of the penis does not exceed 10 cm when erect

This surgery aims to enlarge 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 can free about 3-5 cm of the inner part of the penis. Previously, similar surgical techniques were used to circumcise the foreskin of the penis in men. Modern methods allow you to avoid this and, at the same time, maintain an increase in the size of the genital organ.

Ligamentotomy is considered a simple operation (not as difficult as amputation of the penis) and takes about half an hour. It should be noted that with an increase in the genital organ, surgery on the testicles in men can be carried out in parallel (for example, if pathologies are found, surgery on a varicocele can be prescribed), however, the advisability of such an intervention can only be performed by the attending physicianTo be determined by a doctor. After penile plastic surgery, the patient can stay in the hospital's urological department for about a day. Two weeks after the ligamentotomy, the stitches are removed.

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

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 sexual intercourse so as not to damage the penis

An increase in the thickness of the male genital organ is possible. For this purpose, a traumatic operation is carried out: a puncture of the penis skin is carried out with a special tool to inject the patient's own fatty tissue or a special gel. After the procedure, a protective bandage is applied to the penis.

Note that this surgery can lead to the localization of fatty tissue in a specific location on the penis, resulting in irregularities and tuberosity of the organ. In order to avoid complications and inflammation of the tissues, various polymer phalloprotheses are used to increase the thickness of the penis, achieve an aesthetic appearance of the organ and not affect the deterioration in 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 using an extender and jelqing (special massages for the genital organ to change its length) after surgery. Consider the features of these methods:

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

Before deciding on a cardinal step such as increasing the volume of the penis through surgery, one should keep in mind that, despite its effectiveness, no specialist can predict the end result. Possible post-operative complications include penile tissue scarring 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 starting anatomical 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 surgical enlargement of the male genital organ. As practice shows, an organ can be lengthened by 1 to 4 cm. No practicing surgeon can give precise guarantees.
