Features of penis enlargement surgery

Having tried all methods: from pills and creams to extreme NUP, men, dissatisfied with the size of their genitals, decide that penis enlargement surgery is the only possible solution.

We will consider all types of surgical interventions in the intimate male sphere, find out approximate prices and clinics where such operations are performed.

Men are divided into several categories:

• have an average size, which completely suits him and his partner;
• has a normal medium or large size, but would like to have an even larger one;
• has a small penis and would like to enlarge it (remember that the lower limit of the normal length of an erect penis is considered to be 7 cm);
• there are consequences of injury or disease of the penis.

Indications

To carry out penis enlargement surgery, a man's desire alone is not enough. It is necessary to undergo an examination by a urologist or andrologist, during which a verdict is made regarding the size and shape of the penis.

An anomaly associated with insufficient length of the organ is called micropenis. It occurs as a result of a lack of pituitary hormones. When assessing the parameters of the penis, its size in an erect state is taken into account.

Other indications include:

• congenital pathologies of the structure of the penis;
• dysfunction arising against the background of tricky fibrosis;
• organ injury;
• erect penis length less than 12 cm;
• inability to have sex;
• Peyronie's disease or pathological curvature of the penis.

Male prejudices: the main reasons for dissatisfaction with one’s size

The desire to improve the parameters of the penis is 90% associated with dissatisfaction in the intimate sphere. For example, if a man was taught that the size of his penis directly determines his sexual viability. Regular comparison of the organ or the partner’s dissatisfaction with intimacy with her prompts improvement of the parameters of the penis. Moreover, the woman associates factor 2 with the miniature size of the man’s penis, which does not always cause low quality of sexual life.

What doctors say about penis enlargement:

In our country, a huge number of men are not satisfied with the size of their penis, I tell you as a doctor. This is a sensitive issue that is not usually discussed openly, but I constantly encounter such complaints.

In general, various exercises for penis enlargement have existed for a long time, but, alas, they require a colossal amount of time and, oddly enough, do not work. There is a more radical solution - surgical intervention, but operations cost a lot of money, and not everyone will decide to take such a step.

Penile prosthetics

The outcome of surgery to enlarge the penis using prosthetics depends on what type of implant was used. Penis lengthening using this method is considered difficult.

Rigid prostheses are used in rare cases. Most often, inflatable or plastic implants are inserted. The operation is performed under general anesthesia. The prosthesis is inserted through an incision in the area of the spongy bodies.

Implants are made from different materials, but always hypoallergenic.

This type of operation is performed only for medical reasons, when underdevelopment of the penis is accompanied by sexual dysfunction. How much such a penis enlargement operation costs depends on the material used, the complexity of the pathology and other factors. Penile prosthetics is not available to everyone.

Contraindications to surgery

The specialist does not enlarge the reproductive organ invasively if the patient:

1. Low blood clotting.
2. Oncological processes in the urogenital system.
3. Heart dysfunction.
4. Allergy to all substances used for anesthesia.
5. Bronchial asthma.
6. Diabetes.

Additional contraindications – the presence of severe mental disorders (schizophrenia, epilepsy); tendency to develop colloidal scars; purulent processes in the groin area.

Ligamentotomy

Surgery begins with the administration of an anesthetic. For ligamentotomy, general anesthesia or spinal anesthesia is used. The next step is to intersect and suspend the ligament of the penis, which holds the organ while being located deep in the pelvis.

The process of penis enlargement is carried out by releasing the internal part of this ligament. After exposing the hidden part of the penis, the wound is sutured.

The desired enlargement effect is not achieved immediately, but after some time. It is facilitated by activities that involve the use of an extender during the rehabilitation period.

Existing methods

There are many methods for penis enlargement, but most of them are non-surgical options.

Operations are divided into areas: lengthening or thickening.

Penis lengthening surgeries:

• Ligamentotomy;
• Penile prosthetics.

And the group of operations to thicken the penis includes:

• Lipofilling;
• Introduction of polymer materials;
• Muscle transplantation;
• Hyaluronic acid injections.

Lipofilling

The operation begins with the patient being placed under general anesthesia. Initially, biomaterial is collected from the area where it is most abundant. Then the process of purification of the resulting material is carried out. The next step is to insert it into the genital organ using a special needle.

The injection sites are thoroughly disinfected with an antiseptic. A sterile bandage is applied to the genital organ. In total, the procedure lasts no longer than an hour.

The main advantage of lipofilling is the use of your own biomaterial. The use of artificial implants may provoke an allergic reaction to foreign materials.

After choosing the appropriate option, men calmly move on to searching for a medical facility.They focus not only on price, but look at reviews about the organization and the specialist they are contacting.

Surgery is not always the right methodthey resort to it as a last resort!If your penis is more than 8 cm, we recommend considering options for stretching the tissues of the organ:

• Extender or Stretcher;
• Hanging loads;
• Exercise or jelqing;
• Massage;
• Vacuum pumps.

For the resultWe recommend combining the above methods with the use of ointments, creams, gels or sprays, and as a supplement, use foods and herbs for penis growth.

Hyaluronic acid injections

Hyaluronic acid has become widespread not only in cosmetology, but also in plastic surgery. The procedure is quick and hassle-free. Hyaluronic acid is injected into the penis. On average, the effect lasts for a year.

Injections are given only by a specialist; you cannot self-medicate!

Which doctor should I contact?

If such a decision as penis enlargement through surgery is deliberate, hard-won and there is no turning back, the patient turns toto the plastic surgery clinic.

Large clinics have a department of aesthetic surgery or intimate plastic surgery. First you need to meet with your doctor, preliminaryconsultation is not very expensive.

If the doctor considers your arguments convincing, he will refer you toexamination and testing, for which, by the way, you will have to pay.

Tests that need to be done (there are quite a few of them, so set aside some free time to take them all):

• general blood analysis;
• blood clotting test;
• general urine analysis;
• blood group and Rh factor analysis;
• examination for HIV infection, hepatitis B and C;
• blood test for RW;
• ECG.

In addition to the surgeon, you will needconsult withurologist and andrologist.

After receiving the examination results, the plastic surgeon makesconclusionabout the absence or presence of contraindications. And only then do they do plastic penis enlargement or not.

Preparation stage

Before surgery, you need to go through preparatory procedures. They help to avoid adverse reactions of the body and choose the most appropriate method of intervention.

The preparation stage includes the following diagnostic procedures:

• ultrasound examination with Doppler;
• general clinical blood test;
• research to detect sexually transmitted infections;
• blood chemistry;
• ECG;
• examination by specialists of a narrow profile.

Additionally, studies are being conducted to exclude the possibility of developing an allergic reaction to anesthetics and materials implanted under the skin. They will help to avoid unexpected complications during surgery.

2 days before the appointed date, a man should limit his fluid intake. It is also recommended to stop smoking and drinking alcoholic beverages.

Rehabilitation period: doctor’s advice

For tissue restoration after surgery the following is contraindicated:

• Lift heavy objects (this can cause bleeding and sutures coming apart).
• Drink alcohol, smoke (intoxication of the body after anesthesia causes multiple complications).
• Eat heavy food. The diet should be light so as not to overload the intestines, as constipation will increase the pain in the wound.
• Supercool. After surgery, immunity is reduced. Therefore, exposure to drafts and low temperatures can lead to illness.

Immediately after the operation, a catheter is installed in the patient’s urethra (urination occurs through it). During the patient's stay in the department, his care (washing, antiseptic treatment) is provided by the staff. At the time of discharge from the clinic, the urethral catheter is removed, and the man urinates on his own. At home, the patient needs to perform intimate hygiene after each visit to the toilet. This will avoid infection of the operated organ.

Postoperative period

After ligamentotomy, the patient remains in the hospital for 24 hours. The doctor’s task is to explain how to use an extender that helps increase the parameters of the penis. The device is worn 2 hours a day. In the future, wearing time increases.

In the postoperative period, antibiotics and painkillers are required. To speed up the healing rate of sutures, physical activity and sexual contact should be avoided.

It usually takes up to 3 weeks for the organ to fully recover. It is also necessary to ensure the cleanliness of the genitals. It is important to avoid wearing tight underwear. Squeezing the genital organ contributes to the divergence of the seams.

The undoubted advantage of the operation is the long-term results - literally until the end of life, while therapy requires constant repetition of the course of treatment, and the results of surgical intervention become less impressive over time.

Since penile prosthetics is difficult to perform, the postoperative period is longer. For 2 days after surgery, the patient remains in bed. Then short walks and independent movements around the hospital are allowed.

After 10 days, physical activity increases. The total duration of the rehabilitation period is 1 month.

Recovery

The longest recovery period is observed after phalloplasty. Hospital stay reaches 2 weeks. For 2 monthsphysical activity and sex life are limited. This also applies to lipofilling. The remaining interventions allow sexual activity after 2 weeks.

• Injections of hyaluronic acid - visiting the sauna and taking hot baths is limited.
• Ligamentotomy requires wearing an extender.
• Moderate pain is relieved by taking non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

Possible complications

Any type of surgery involves certain risks. The operation may lead to the development of complications.

These include the following:

• scar formation;
• tissue necrosis;
• bleeding in the area of sutures;
• thrombosis;
• erectile dysfunction;
• increase in body temperature;
• nervous disorders due to past experiences;
• infection in the wound;
• decreased sensitivity of the genital organ.

Proper operation ensures the absence of scars and scars on the genital organ. Erectile function in this case is not suppressed. Difficulties arise if the operation was performed poorly.

Indications for penis enlargement surgery

Experts identify the following indications for penis enlargement:

1. Micropenis syndrome.
2. Curvature of the reproductive organ.
3. The desire to improve your sexual performance.
4. The need to increase self-confidence (if, due to the small size of the penis, a man cannot satisfy his partner).

If the genital organ is deformed due to injury, surgical enlargement will help get rid of this problem. Surgical intervention is also suitable for men whose penis is small in size due to hormonal problems and diabetes.

Be careful! Most exercises for penis enlargement are dangerous for men, because. . . various types of sprains have an extremely negative effect on potency.

How much does the operation cost?

You can find out how much penis enlargement surgery costs at your chosen medical institution. The pricing policy depends on the prestige of the clinic and the qualifications of the surgeons. The type of surgical intervention is also important.

You should focus on the following data:

1. The cost of penis enlargement surgery through penile prosthesis varies from 180 to 250 thousand rubles.
2. The price for ligamentotomy is 12 – 85 thousand rubles.
3. When using implants, the final cost depends on the material. The operation can be performed for a cost of 40 to 280 thousand rubles.
4. Muscle transplantation will cost 150-250 thousand rubles.

The operation is carried out not only in private clinics, but also in public medical institutions.

How to choose a clinic for surgery?

The most important criterion for choosing a clinic is the qualifications of the surgeon

First of all, when choosing a clinic for plastic surgery, attention is paid to the qualifications of the surgeon, but the conditions and the environment itself are also important. Without good medical equipment, it is almost impossible to achieve an ideal result, even with experience and professional skills. The choice of clinic is also influenced by the availability of intensive care equipment.

Main criteria to pay attention to

Permission to operate and a license are required. The documents state:

• Name of the clinic.
• Legal address.
• Status of the medical facility.
• State levelAccreditations.
• State-issued signature and seal.

The success of the operation largely depends on technical equipment. Having found out what kind of equipment the clinic has, it is important not to forget to check the availability of resuscitation equipment to provide emergency care.

A friendly environment in the clinic is important. It is important for the patient to feel intuitively comfortable in it. A team of specialists must inspire confidence in the coherence of their work.

Examination before the procedure and observation after the operation are carried out directly by the clinic staff.

The drawn up agreement between the clinic and the patient must specify the responsibilities of both parties and the extent of responsibility for the actions taken.

It would be nice to hear the opinions of people who have used the clinic's services. Find out how their ligamentotomy went. Patient reviews often play a decisive role.

If at least one of the points is in doubt, it is worth looking for another clinic with a more reliable reputation.

Alternative lengthening methods

Ligamentotomy is not the only surgical method for increasing penis length. There are also alternative methods.

V-Y-plasty

The essence of the operation is to create a constricting skin defect in the pubic area (above the root of the penis). First, a V-shaped incision is made, which is sutured to a Y. During the operation, the sling and suspensory ligaments are cut. As a result, the penis visually becomes larger due to its elevation above the scrotum.

Complications in the form of suppuration, the formation of rough scars and folds are possible. Moreover, the latter may manifest themselves in the long term.

Perovic method

The method is named after Professor Sava V. Perovic who developed it. During the operation, the penis is literally dismembered into parts: the head is cut off from the thickness of the corpora cavernosa and spongy tissue, and the neurovascular bundle is mobilized. Then, particles of cartilage or synthetic materials are implanted into the resulting space between the head and the porous bodies.As a result of stretching of the nerves and the corpus spongiosum, the length of the penis increases by 2. 5-5 cm.

As for complications, the subsequent formation of scar tissue and too high mobility of the head (granuloptosis) are possible. The implanted cartilage gradually dissolves, so the initial result will worsen. Synthetic implants may fail.

Operation Shcheplev

The essence of the operation is to introduce implants of greater length into the corpora cavernosa than the tunica albuginea allows. To stretch it, several cuts are made on it.With conventional penile prosthesis, only the hardness of the penis is ensured, but with Shcheplev’s operation, it is lengthened by approximately 2 cm. The implants are installed through a circular incision 10 mm from the coronary groove.

For installation, prostheses of greater length but smaller diameter are used. Thus, their surface is covered with cavernous tissue, which significantly speeds up healing.

What happens during the operation?

A man who has decided to modify his most intimate area goes and makes an appointment at the appropriate clinic and puts his intimate area in order. Read more about shaving your intimate area here.

The first thing he cares about is how much bigger his penis will become. In this case, doctors say thatit can be extended to a maximum of 5 centimeters. The second most popular question is whether it will become wider. The size of the new, modified manhood will depend on what kind of surgery was performed.

How is the procedure performed on the genital organ?

If your doctor is an experienced and licensed genital surgeon, the main stage will last no more than 30-35 minutes.

It looks like this:

• the patient is placed under general anesthesia;
• the entire genital area, at the same time the stomach, legs are generously disinfected with iodine;
• the doctor coolly cuts a scalpel into the penis;
• the incision is made on the scrotum, exactly along the dark line - the natural midline suture. If you twist the phallus, you will see it with the naked eye. By the way, after healing, the scar is masked along the line and becomes invisible even upon closer examination;
• The cavernous bodies move to the side - this is how the doctor finds a way out to the periosteum. The ligament that attaches the phallus to the pubic bone has settled in this place. The point is that about a third of the actual length sits here. These bowels are taken out;
• the doctor evaluates how long the penis is, focusing on the mark. If all is well, the incision is sutured. On average, the length increases by 3 cm.

The length of the penis after surgery in a calm state will remain unchanged. Don't expect everything to hang down impressively.You will see the whole effect in the erection. The tunica albuginea is to blame for this. It covers bodies that fill with blood when excited.

Possible risks and side effects

Potential complications of surgical interventions:

• Bleeding. Consequence of damage to large vessels (if the symptom arose during surgery) or heavy lifting (if it appeared during the recovery period).
• Damage to nerves during tissue dissection.
• Formation of a large scar (due to the individual characteristics of the skin or careless work of the surgeon).
• Hematomas (hemorrhages of varying severity).
• Inflammation of the surgical wound (due to pathogenic microflora entering it).

The risk associated with unsuccessful surgical penis enlargement is impotence, erectile dysfunction.

Prices

The cost of penis enlargement has no clear limits. This is due to the fact that plastic surgery changes the parameters of thickness and length or has a complex effect. The price of the procedures varies. It depends on:

• Technical difficulty for the surgeon;
• Clinic policies;
• Scope of work of the specialist;
• Additional materials (implants, prostheses).

Types of surgery

At the moment, there are many types of manipulations that are performed under general anesthesia or local anesthesia. Some of them are quite harmless, while others require careful preparation and examination.

Elongation

With this procedure, the reproductive organ is extended in length, while its thickness remains unchanged.

Ligamentotomy

This is a surgical enlargement of the penis, which is a simple circumcision of the foreskin, resulting in an extension of 2 centimeters. The event is held for hygienic purposes; many claim that it prevents STDs, including infectious pathologies. The method takes approximately 15 minutes and can be performed at any age under local anesthesia.

Thickening

With this approach, the reproductive organ increases in volume, which is also important for full and vibrant sexual intercourse. The techniques mainly involve special injections, which are considered minimally invasive.

Lipofilling

The procedure involves inserting the patient's fat cells processed and purified in specialized equipment into the shaft of the penis with a thin needle.The effect lasts for several months, after which the injected tissues resolve on their own.The operation is painless; if necessary, local anesthesia is used in the form of ointments and injections. Virtually no rehabilitation is required.

Microsurgical muscle transplantation

With this approach, the specialist takes tissue from the patient’s back muscles or armpit, after which he implants them into the genital organ, then restores the normal functioning of the nerve endings. This is a complex method that is expensive, but as a result of competent work it is possible to obtain an enlarged and sensitive to stimulation organ.

Important: before choosing a particular technology, be sure to consult a doctor and undergo a comprehensive diagnosis.
