The size of the penis depends on the structural features of the man and his offspring. In some cases, inadequate penis size is caused by hormonal disorders or congenital anomalies.
Currently, the only effective way to enlarge a penis is surgery. However, before deciding on surgery, a man should consider all possible contraindications and consult a qualified surgeon.
Type of operation
With the help of plastic surgery, penis enlargement can be achieved with length and width. Men often use combined surgery. There are several techniques for resizing the penis:
- Ligamentotomy is a procedure to increase penis length. This technique is considered the most modern and safe, but is contraindicated in patients with erectile dysfunction. The essence lies in the cutting of the suspension ligament (dariligamentum suspensorium penis - penile ligament suspension, tomia - surgery). This operation allows you to increase the size by 1-2 cm, and wear a special orthopedic device (developer) and then increase the penis by 4-6 see After ligamentotomy, our clinic can recommend lipofilling to increase the thickness and straighten the shape of the penis.
- Lipofilling is a procedure used to thicken the penis. This can be achieved by introducing the patient's adipose tissue under the skin of the genital organs. The operation can enlarge the penis with a diameter of about 1 cm. It does not take long to recover, however, the effects are short-lived.
- Muscle transplantation is a complex surgical procedure aimed at increasing the diameter of the penis. Transplantation uses tissue from the abdominal wall or fascia. The wings have been shown solely to give a sense of proportion. As a result, the diameter of the penis can increase by 3-4 cm.
- Falloprosthetics is performed exclusively according to strict guidelines, including not only insufficient penis size, but also dysfunction. Cartilage tissue or elastic material is used for prosthesis.
Reading
Except for developmental anomalies, when penis enlargement is required to lead a normal sex life, the operation is performed for aesthetic reasons.
If the penis is functioning normally and the man is able to reproduce, then there is no direct indication for surgical intervention. How much phalloplasty is needed - the specialist will decide.
Contraindications
Penis enlargement surgery is contraindicated if the patient has serious illness, internal organ injury, blood clotting disorders, diabetes mellitus, oncology, etc.
Decisions on the possibility of phalloplasty will be made by the attending physician, based on the results of the examination and the patient's state of health.
Ready for surgery
Before surgery, the surgeon consults with the patient. Your doctor will tell you about all the risks and possible consequences, as well as choose the most appropriate surgical technique.
At the preparatory stage, a man should undergo a thorough body examination with the aim of possible contraindications. Patients need to donate blood and urine, undergo ECG and X-rays, and be examined by a urologist.
Operation progress
Regardless of the method chosen at the clinic, surgery will be performed under general anesthesia. The course of operation depends on the desired result, as well as the technique chosen.
Ligamentotomy and lipofilling require an average of one hour. Muscle transfer - about 3 hours. The duration of prosthetic surgery is 1-2 hours.
Recovery
The recovery period after ligamentotomy is relatively short: after surgery, the patient should stay in the hospital for about 2 days. After going out, you need to come regularly for check-ups and dressing. After 2-3 weeks, the stitches become almost invisible. You must wear an extension of at least 6 months.
Falloprosthetics will require a longer and more serious recovery period. The duration depends on the man's body.
The recovery period after a muscle transfer will take at least 5 weeks.
The small penis is a very delicate problem that prevents a man from living a normal life. Specialists of the medical center "CM-Clinic" have the necessary qualifications for penis enhancement surgery. To learn more about phalloplasty, make an appointment with a surgeon.
