The size of the penis depends on the structural features and heredity of the man. In some cases, insufficient penis size is the result of hormonal disorders or congenital disorders.
Currently, the only effective way to enlarge your penis is surgery. However, before deciding on a surgery, one should consider all possible contraindications and consult a trained surgeon.
Types of actions
With plastic surgery, penis enlargement can be achieved in length and width. Men often resort to combined surgery. There are several techniques for resizing the penis:
- Ligamentotomy is a procedure for increasing the length of the penis. This technique is considered to be the most modern and safest, but is contraindicated in patients with erectile dysfunction. Its essence lies in the incision of the suspension band (ligamentum suspensorium penis - the suspension band of the penis, tomia dissection). The operation allows you to increase the size by 1-2 cm, and the subsequent wearing of a special orthopedic device (expander) will increase the penile clearance after 4-6 ligamentotomies, our clinic may recommend lipofilling to increase the thickness of the penis and harmonize its shape.
- Lipofilling is a procedure for thickening the penis. This is accomplished by placing the patient's adipose tissue under the skin of the genitals. The operation can enlarge the penis by about 1 cm in diameter. It does not require long recovery, however, its effect lasts for a short time.
- Muscle transplantation is a complex surgical procedure designed to increase the diameter of the penis. Transplantation uses tissue from the abdominal wall or fascia. The lid is placed on the genitals, the blood vessels are sutured. As a result, the diameter of the penis can be increased by 3-4 cm.
- Phalloposthetics are performed only according to strict indications, including not only insufficient penis size but also dysfunction. Cartilage tissue or elastic materials are used for the prosthesis.
Readings
With the exception of developmental disorders where penis enlargement is necessary for normal sex life, this operation is performed for aesthetic reasons.
If the penis is functioning normally and a person is able to reproduce, there is no direct indication for surgery. How much phalloplasty is needed - the specialist decides.
Contraindications
Penis enlargement surgery is contraindicated in patients with severe medical conditions, internal organ abnormalities, coagulation disorders, diabetes mellitus, oncology, etc.
The possibility of phalloplasty is decided by the treating physician based on the results of the tests and the patient's state of health.
Preparing for surgery
Before surgery, the surgeon consults with the patient. The doctor will explain all the possible risks and consequences and select the most appropriate surgical technique.
In the preparatory phase, the person should undergo a comprehensive examination of the body for possible contraindications. The patient should receive blood and urine, undergo an ECG and X-ray, and be examined by a urologist.
Progress of the operation
Regardless of the method chosen at the clinic, surgery is performed under general anesthesia. The course of the operation depends on the desired result as well as the chosen technique.
Ligamentotomy and lipofilling take an average of about an hour. Muscle transplantation - about 3 hours. The duration of prosthetic surgery is 1-2 hours.
Recovery
The rehabilitation period after ligamentotomy is relatively short: the patient has to stay in the hospital for about 2 days after surgery. After the discharge, you should come regularly for examination and dressing. After 2-3 weeks the seam becomes almost invisible. You must wear the extension cord for at least 6 months.
Phalloposthetics require a longer and more severe healing period. Its duration depends on the man's body.
The recovery period after muscle transplantation takes at least 5 weeks.
The small penis is a very delicate problem that prevents a person from living a normal life. The specialists of the "CM-Clinic" medical center have the necessary training for the operation required to enlarge the penis. To learn more about phalloplasty, make an appointment with a surgeon.
