Increasing the length or width of the penis can affect a man's psycho-emotional health.A small penis often causes ridicule from the fair half of humanity, and can also cause neurotic conditions and serious mental illnesses 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 of penis enlargement exist?

There are a lot of rumors and fictional legends surrounding the male penis, but it is necessary to understand that from a physiological point of view, the normal length of the penis falls within the framework of 12-18 cm in an 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 very base with 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 acquires 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 function of the penis.
  • The use of all kinds of weights, devices and “special” exercises aimed at enlarging the penis is nothing more than advertising campaigns from dubious manufacturers who produce “effective” devices that guarantee instant results.The male sexual organ cannot be pumped up or stretched using weights or dumbbells.Their use can cause injury to the organ or cause tears in the ligaments that hold the penis.“Stretching” the penis can only be carried out 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 efficiency is quite high.

Advice:To avoid wasting money and subsequent disappointments, you should not purchase all kinds of creams for external use and other “healing” drugs intended to increase penis size.They do not carry any therapeutic load and are completely ineffective.

Ligamentotomy

How many centimeters can a penis be enlarged

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

This operation is aimed at enlarging the male reproductive organ by cutting and subsequently fixing the pelvic ligament, which is responsible for holding the penis.Thanks to this method, doctors manage to release about 3-5 cm of the inside of the penis.Previously, similar surgical techniques were carried out with circumcision of the foreskin of the penis in men.Modern methods make it possible to avoid this and preserve it with a parallel increase in the reproductive organ.

Ligamentotomy is considered a simple operation (not as complex as amputation of a penis) and lasts 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, surgery on varicocele may be prescribed), however, the feasibility of such an intervention can only be determined by the attending physician.After penile plastic surgery, the patient may remain in the urology department for about a day.After a two-week period after ligamentotomy, the sutures are removed.

Advice:To avoid divergence of 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?

It is necessary to abstain from intercourse for 4-5 weeks so as not to harm the penis

Increasing the thickness of the male reproductive organ is possible.To do this, a low-traumatic operation is performed: the skin of the penis is punctured with a special instrument to introduce 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 may lead to the localization of adipose tissue in a certain place of the penis, which leads to its unevenness and tuberosity of the organ.To avoid complications and tissue inflammation, various polymer penile prostheses are used to increase the thickness of the penis, providing 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 involves the use of an extender after surgery and the use of jelqing (carrying out special massages for the reproductive organ to change its length).Let's look at the features of these methods:

  • Using an extender after surgery can significantly 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 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 every day for at least 1 hour a day.Massage manipulations on the penis are performed by the patient with his hands in the erect state of the organ and they involve stretching it.Jelqing increases the blood supply to the penis and increases its size.

Before deciding 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 foresee the final result.Possible postoperative complications include scarring of the penile tissue 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 disrupted, 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.
