A rare man did not think about the magnitude of his dignity. The average penis among Europeans is between 13 and 16 centimeters long. Some representatives of the stronger sex are thinking about surgical intervention.
Penile enlargement surgery aims to eliminate penile defects: curvature, small size. It is possible not only to lengthen the penis, but also to increase its volume.

How plastic surgery is performed on the penis
In the first stage, men seek medical advice. He assesses the patient's condition. If there are no obvious deformities and problems, then the doctor will try to explain that there is no need for surgical intervention. After talking with the surgeon, some young men refuse plastic surgery, others decide to enlarge the penis.
In the second stage, men collect the necessary tests, undergo examinations by close specialists. They should consult a urologist, cardiologist, therapist (if necessary, other doctors). For the operation, you will need the results of blood tests, urine tests, coagulogram, electrocardiogram.
Then patients go to surgery, spend 1-2 days after it in the hospital, regain their strength and leave anesthesia. Within 1-3 months, depending on the type of intervention, the rehabilitation process takes place.
There are three types of phalloplasty:
- lengthening of the penis, while the thickness remains the same;
- thickening of the phallus, but its length will not change;
- prosthesis is a serious plastic surgery on the penis. It is performed only according to the indications, but not every doctor will agree with the surgical intervention. As a prosthesis, surgeons implant cartilage tissue or an elastic material that is similar in characteristics.
Careful! Only one operation type can be selected. It is impossible to increase the size and thickness of the penis at the same time. If desired, the patient will have to undergo plastic surgery, undergo rehabilitation, and then undergo a new operation.
Elongation
![With the help of ligamentotomy, you can increase the length of the penis](/images/articles/632/With%20the%20help%20of%20ligamentotomy,%20you%20can%20increase%20the%20length%20of%20the%20penis.jpg)
Ligamentotomy is a surgical procedure aimed at lengthening the penis. Most often it is performed for medical reasons. If a man is adult and mentally healthy, then he can also do plastic surgery. During the operation, surgeons cut the upper ligament that supports the penis. As such, the length of the penis does not change, but due to the stretching of the corpora cavernosa, it increases in size.
An important role is played by the period after the operation, with proper rehabilitation, the penis will become larger. If the patient does not follow the doctor's recommendations, then there will be no positive results.
Ligamentotomy is performed under general or epidural anesthesia and lasts 30 minutes. No prior hospitalization is required. The member is lengthened by 3-6 centimeters. On the first day after the operation, you may notice that the penis has become larger by 1-1. 5 centimeters. Subsequent growth occurs in the rehabilitation process.
The penis will have to be stretched gradually and regularly. Some require three months to consolidate the results, others - at least six months. It is necessary to wear the extension device for 2-4 hours a day. At first, a stretcher, no earlier than a month later - an extender. If the rehabilitation is carried out correctly, then the penis will become longer and will not return to its place.
Thickening
![Penile enlargement surgery](/images/articles/632/Penile%20enlargement%20surgery.jpg)
Phalloplasty, in which the penis becomes wider in circumference, is called lipofilling. This is a common minimally invasive surgery. It is performed only under general anesthesia, lasts up to 3 hours. The operation is performed according to absolute indications, when the penis is curved, or has insufficient width. If you want to improve the appearance of the reproductive organ and there are no contraindications, lipofilling is performed for men over 18 years old.
The patient's natural fat is injected under the skin of the penis. It is taken from the buttocks, abdomen, thighs. The biological material is cleaned from the fractions, injected into the penis, distributed evenly along its entire length. Surgeons sew up the puncture sites, close them with a special plaster. An implant or silicone may also be placed.
Within 1-2 months, doctors advise avoiding sports, heavy physical exertion. Also, at this time, you cannot have sex, otherwise the effect of plastic surgery will be removed.
The main advantages of the procedure:
- an increase in volume by 1-1, 5 centimeters;
- minimal risk of complications, as natural biological material is taken;
- during rehabilitation, you cannot wear additional equipment.
The main disadvantage of plastic surgery is that it is temporary. After a couple of years, it is necessary to repeat the procedure, as the penis will become the same size.
Careful! In case of an unsuccessful operation, there is a possibility of deformation of the penis, the appearance of irregularities and seals.
