Is penis enlargement surgery a vital necessity or a whim for an insecure man? According to statistics, the majority of men are not against enlarging this organ. And some attach so much importance to this aspect that dissatisfaction with the parameters of their organ causes quite serious psychological disorders, for example, impotence. The average size of the male penis is 12 to 16 cm; anything less is considered a deviation from the norm and may be an indicator for surgery. For reference: if the size of the organ is abnormally enlarged, surgery is used to reduce the penis.
Anatomical possibilities for penis enlargement
The peculiarity of the attachment of its soft tissues to the pubic bones makes it possible to change the size of the male genital organ. The surgery works with a special ligament, which is the connecting link between the corpora cavernosa of the penis and the insertion area. In some cases, its partial dissection allows the penis to be enlarged by several centimeters.
An indication for surgery on the penis may be that the size of the organ is very small, sometimes its length at rest cannot exceed 2 cm. The patient's desire to change the shape and size of his manhood, especially if the initial parameters cause psychological discomfort, also does not exclude the possibility of plastic surgery operations.
Basic techniques
It would be useful to mention additional methods, because surgery is not the only way to enlarge the penis.
- Penis enlargement surgery. The essence is the partial intersection of the ligaments that attach the organ to the perineum. In this case, there is no real increase as such; the limb simply drops further.
- The technique, which does not involve a surgical scalpel, consists of the use of a special device – an extender. The method has been tried and tested, is quite safe compared to surgery and gives stable results in any condition of the organ. The problem is the need to use it systematically over several months, which is not always convenient. But the increase occurs by at least 3 cm without compromising the diameter and power.
- Combined method, that is, surgery is performed first and then the use of an extender is prescribed.
It is possible to have surgery to straighten the penis.
Operating methods
What is penis enlargement surgery? The most common technique is partial dissection of the ligaments that support the genital organ, with the introduction of skin graft elements.
The newest thickening methods include the use of a so-called biological matrix, which consists of modern polymeric materials implanted into the tissue.How does this happen?
It's simple. First, a procedure is carried out to remove the skin from the penis and then an artificial matrix up to 5 mm thick is placed on it, which over time transforms into living tissues, becoming part of them. It takes about a year for complete fusion, but sexual activity can begin after 2 months.
Additional thickening methods, which involve implanting various biological and synthetic materials under the skin of the penis, include:
- Implantation of silicone, biogel, etc.
- Use of biological material (fat, muscle, skin flaps) taken from the buttocks, groin or abdomen.
Endoscopy in andrological surgery
The selection of the surgical technique directly depends on the final objective of the event, achieving the necessary parameters, including length, diameter and flexion. The surgical plan is discussed by the doctor together with the patient based on the medical capabilities and the man's own wishes.
During endoscopic surgery, all possible visual visualization methods are used. This includes optical technology and video equipment. The advantages of using video assistance during endoscopic surgery are that there is no need to introduce special liquid or gas into the workspace. With this procedure, local anesthesia can be used if the patient has individual intolerance to general anesthetics. An endoscope with integrated optics is inserted through a small incision, which provides the necessary visual insight. If the operation is successful, the patient can be discharged from the clinic within a few days.
The results can exceed all expectations - an increase of up to 6 cm is possible. The record was set in Scandinavia (from 2 cm to 19 cm). But the average result is about 3 cm and the diameter usually corresponds to the length.
To improve and consolidate the result, it is highly recommended to use an extender - a device that lengthens the organ.
It is necessary to start as early as possible, naturally, after the surgeon's approval, and carrying out special exercises is not excluded. For this purpose, the simplest techniques were developed a long time ago.
Possible complications
No matter how beautiful everything may seem, phalloplasty does not exclude possible unpleasant consequences:
- During surgery, the wound can become infected.
- Concern about postoperative scars.
- Necrosis of grafted biomaterials.
- Formation of fatty lumps on the penis.
- Over time, the implanted material can shrink and cause the organ to decrease in size.
- Quite severe scars remain on the donor areas of the body.
The role of sex in overcoming psychological barriers
Sometimes, even after a successful operation, a man feels some shyness before contacting his partner, based on previous stereotypes. He still feels like his dick isn't good enough to impress his partner. The issue, most likely, was not the size of the penis, but the pathological uncertainty of its bearer. And it arises due to lack of experience or simply because the person does not love or even despise themselves. Such attitudes usually arise in childhood, but this is already the work of a psychotherapist, with whom the man should have contacted before the operation.
In any case, to eliminate pathological uncertainty, practice is needed, and as much as possible. But at this time, against the background of psychological disorders, temporary impotence may occur. Here doctors recommend using various herbs and medicines that increase potency, relax and relieve tension. Phosphodiesterase medications help a lot. These pills should be taken immediately before sexual intercourse, preferably without the partner knowing. Although similar products are available commercially and without a prescription, you should consult a specialist before using them, as an unexpected allergic reaction may occur.
Many problems still reside in the human head, and not in any other organ. It's worth thinking about this before deciding to take drastic measures.
