Before deciding on such an unusual plastic surgery as penis enlargement, you need to have a clear idea of when it can and should be performed, and if it is worth doing at all.
Further, in detail about the most common surgeries, as well as their possible consequences and how the organ is enlarged using the manipulation method.
Phalloplasty: what is it, reasons for the appointment and contraindications
Penile plastic surgery involves either the restoration of the functions of the penis (both its urinary and sexual function) or the change of its external characteristics.
Indications for phalloplasty are the reasons that led to the failure or lack of function of the penis.
But apart from the main reasons, there is much more to medicine:
- abnormal changes in the penis
- damage caused by various injuries (mechanical, thermal, chemical);
- underdevelopment of an organ or its short length / thickness;
- genital deformity
- neoplasms (malignant)
- gangrene;
- removal of an organ for any other reason;
- erectile dysfunction etc.
Most of the time, men turn to specialists who perform penis enlargement surgeries due to dissatisfaction with the appearance of the penis, and especially with its size. There is a specific indication of the rule, according to which the normal length of the penis is between 12-15 cm. But it is important to measure it correctly.
The penis is measured in three dimensions:
- at rest;
- when stretched
- with erection.
The measurement is performed in a room at room temperature immediately after stripping to prevent tissue shrinkage due to cooling.You can stretch the penis as much as possible by gently grasping and pulling it from the head.
An instrument is measured along its back (from the tip to the tip of the head). In this case, it is recommended to hold the penis so that there is a right angle between it and the abdominal wall. If the length of the penis is less than 9, 5 cm, then we can say that the man has a small penis.
Unfortunately, not all members of the stronger sex who have expressed such a desire can turn to this business.There are some specific contraindications to phalloplasty.These include:
- irreversible organ pathologies;
- inflammatory processes in the urogenital system.
- mental disorders?
- autoimmune disease;
- sexually transmitted diseases or genital infections;
- Diabetes;
- leukemia etc.
To learn more about the operation and at the same time consult a doctor about the possibility of its application,It is necessary to visit first a sexologist and then a urologist-andrologist.Having received a sufficient amount of information and after passing the examination, you can go directly to a surgeon with experience in performing surgeries on the male genital organ.
The main types of penis enlargement surgeries
There are several options for surgery to change the size of the penis. Among them, various procedures can be distinguished, leading in most cases to the desired result. Read more about them in more detail.
Ligentotomy
Lynatinotomy is a fairly simple aesthetic operation, the purpose of which is to increase the length of the penis.
Report.It should be noted that ligamentotomy is performed in most cases in the absence of evidence, but only at the request of the man. In addition, the length of his genitals may even be within the normal range.
On the eve of the operation, the specialist performs a thorough examination and assigns some studies. Most of the time, we talk about tests, which include: group relationship determination, CBC + clotting time, HIV analysis, hepatitis B and C and ECG.
If all the tests are normal, the doctor will give detailed instructions on how to prepare for the operation. So, in the evening on the eve of the operation, it is necessary to carefully shave the pub and wash. Food and water should not be consumed on the day of surgery.
The operation itself takes more than half an hour and is usually performed under general anesthesia.
- The surgeon makes a small incision in the scrotum, exposes the connective fibers of the ligament that supports the penis and cuts them.
- The hidden part of the penis is pulled out and then the incision is sewn.
Keep in mind that penis enlargement will not happen magically as a result of surgery. A positive result can be achieved only with the correct and long-term wear of a special support device.
During the postoperative period during the hospital stay, the patient must comply with bed rest and be examined periodically by a physician.After the exemption, various rules must be strictly observed:
- exclude physical activity for a while.
- Avoid sexual intercourse for 3-4 weeks after surgery.
- Take prescription medications on time for a full and quick recovery.
- do not forget personal hygiene.
- exclude the use of tight underwear.
- use the extension for wear for 3 months.
Complete recovery after surgery occurs in about six months.If you follow all the rules and recommendations, you can achieve the desired result.
A few words about the prices for the operation. The cost of penile surgery depends first of all on the clinic, but also on the equipment used during the operation, the professionalism of the surgeon, as well as the conditions of the hospital in which the patient spends time in the postoperative period. .
Liposuction
Lipofilling is a procedure designed not to lengthen the penis, but to make it thicker.The desired result is achieved by the introduction of a subcutaneous injection.In the case of fat filling, the patient's adipose tissue is used, removed from the area where the amount is excessive, for example, from the abdomen, lower back, thighs, etc.
- The removal of adipose tissue is completely painless and quite fast. It is then injected subcutaneously at the desired site, forming a new penis size. After this operation, the risk of developing such a terrible complication as tissue rejection is unlikely because the patient's material is used.
Caution.We must keep in mind that during the postoperative period there will be a gradual change in the size of the organ downwards, which will eventually stop.
The fact is that the fat after the injection shrinks in the range of 30-45%, which is considered normal.
- The duration of the operation is 1-2 hours. It is usually performed under local anesthesia. After its end, small bruises, swelling will remain on the body, but there will be no scars,
since the process is done gradually, the fat is injected in small doses. - On the eve of the operation, an examination is performed by a specialist and certain tests are prescribed, which are almost identical to the list described in the previous operation; in addition, urine can be taken for analysis.
- It is recommended to eat only properly a few weeks before the operation (it is recommended to follow a low calorie diet), to avoid drinking alcohol, nicotine and a few days before the procedure to minimize physical activity.
Microsurgical muscle transplantation
The essence of the operation is to wrap the penis with a piece isolated from the wider back musclefollowed by the imposition of tiny vessels at the site of surgery to maintain active and healthy blood circulation.
The operation is quite complicated and is most often indicated for use in cases where the genital organ is damaged or can not even be classified as a small genitalia, ie its length is less than 2. 5 cm. Transsexual or hermaphroditic individuals.
To perform this function, some preparatory procedures are performed.and many analyzes are obtained. The main condition for performing a genital tissue transplant operation is the absence of contraindications for automatic transplantation (there should be enough tissue in the organ and the patient's condition should allow many hours of operation, which, fromway, takes about 6-8 hours). . .
Possible risks and consequences of surgery
Despite the apparent simplicity of the above functions, they can have not only a pleasant result, but also unpleasant consequences. Well, talking about tighteningit is impossible not to mention the possibility of many complications, such as:
- Bleeding;
- erectile dysfunction
- contamination;
- penile deformity.
This is possible if some technical difficulties arose during the operation because it was performed by a non-specialist surgeon.
After completing the fainting, the risk of having a different result than in the case is less than with the ligentotomyand most often results from the possibility of infection, the appearance of penile asymmetry or insufficient correction.
It should also be understood that cosmetic surgery is mainly used for penis size as much as possible. This means that the patient must have a realistic understanding of the outcome he can expect after surgery.
Such procedures can increase the length of the penis by no more than 3-5 cm, everything else is either misleading or deceptive.
Summarizing all the above, we can say that penis enlargement surgery is not a myth, but not a "miracle" due to which the penis will increase dramatically in size. In addition, there is an important list of contraindications and consequences of such a decision. Therefore, if the size of the penis is within the normal range, it is worth thinking twice before deciding on an operation.
