Most often, surgery is performed on a small organ that is unable to have full-fledged sexual intercourse (this pathology occurs in 2% of men). Also, surgery is performed with serious injuries that prevent the existence of a normal normal sex life.
Doctors will consider additional instructions for surgery:

Methods of operation
Methods of penis enlargement surgery are based on the use of different methods according to the available instructions and the general condition of the patient. The most popular manipulations are discussed below.
Ligamentotomy
This operation is performed using spinal anesthesia (insertion of painkillers into the spinal cord). Manipulation is performed using an endoscope, which prevents damage to the surrounding tissues and significantly reduces the rehabilitation period.
The duration of the procedure is about 40 minutes. During this time the surgeon pushes the penis forward, ensuring an extension of its size. By actual measurements, the length of the body does not change, but the characteristic changes are visually noticeable.
The patient was discharged from the hospital the next day and will recover at home. Pain relief is needed for the first 3 days. After surgery, a public scar remains from the current incision.
Rehabilitation lasts up to several months. During this period of time there is a dependence on the body and the process of tissue healing, which gradually scars. For recovery it is necessary to constantly wear a extender to finally fix the result obtained.
The cost of ligatotomy is in the middle range. The pricing policy has an average value between these types of procedures and is fully justified if the operation is performed in the presence of obvious indications and is subject to the body’s readiness for surgical intervention.
Phalloprosthesis
Phalloprosthetics is one of the most difficult surgeries because it involves replacing the genitals with an implant. Such manipulation is often performed during sex reassignment and has a significant number of complications, therefore, it requires a long recovery and adherence to all medical recommendations.
Rigid, inflatable and plastic implants are used for surgery. The manipulation is performed under general anesthesia and an artificial organ is inserted into the area of the cloud body. If we talk about cost, then the procedure is quite expensive and inaccessible to the main category of the population.
Lipofilling
Lipofilling is a plastic surgery in which the penis is thickened. The effectiveness of the technique is based on the introduction of a special substance (fat) under the skin to achieve the desired effect.
When adipose tissue is cut, it gradually becomes addictive and the genital organ functions normally. In order for the procedure to produce proper results, it should be performed 2-3 times a year as the fat is absorbed and creates empty spots which affect the size of the penis.
Lipofilling can cause an inflammatory process in the body, so if negative symptoms appear, this technique automatically becomes a contraindication to exercise.
The operation allows you to increase the thickness of the penis by 2 cm. The patient is discharged home for 2 days while the rehabilitation process lasts 4 weeks (intimate intercourse is prohibited to prevent the development of side effects and contraindications).
Microsurgical muscle transplantation
Penis enlargement is possible using microsurgical muscle transplantation. Moreover, this technique is quite rarely used because it has a high cost.
The essence of the operation is to wrap the penis in tissue and sew on the vessels, thereby increasing its size. The duration of the procedure is about 3 hours using general anesthesia.
The skin takes root well and practically does not cause rejection, so this technique is one of the most effective.
After surgery, the patient is discharged 5-6 days later. Recovery lasts for 3 months, provided that all prescriptions of the attending physician are observed. Penile pain is observed for 20-25 days.
Penile prosthesis surgery
Penis replacement surgery is a manipulation used in the absence of conservative treatment results and the use of other alternative methods.
Testimonials:
- The presence of a micropenis that does not correspond to the average size of the penis;
- Psychological problems;
- Peyronie's disease (deformity of the penis);
- Circulatory disorders in the body;
- Improper surgical intervention;
- Impotence arising against the background of progressive chronic diseases.
To perform the operation, you must undergo special training:
- Exclude the presence of diseases (heart pathology, tuberculosis, oncology) that are contraindicated for prosthetics. In this case, a full examination of the patient is performed;
- Consult a psychologist (the specialist should prepare the patient for the absence of an erection for several months after surgery);
- Selection of appropriate model and type of implanted prosthesis.
The operation is performed under general anesthesia and the prosthesis can be inserted through the throat, gonads or pubis. It is contraindicated to take any food for 10-12 hours after surgery.
The patient stays in the hospital for 5 days and then recovers at home for about 3 months. Absence of an erection lasts up to 20 days, while intimate intercourse is prohibited for 60 days.
Possible complications of surgery include rejection of the fitted prosthesis, development of necrosis (high fever, inflammation), and wound infection. With such symptoms it is necessary to immediately go to the hospital and perform repeated manipulations to correct the situation.
When performing prosthetics, it is important to find a good surgeon who will select the most suitable implant and rule out possible contraindications and side effects.
Other non-surgical methods of penis enlargement
Physicians prescribe non-surgical techniques for penis enlargement, which are discussed in the list below.
- Using a vacuum pump.This technique allows you to increase blood circulation in the body and has an instant but short-term effect. The impact occurs by changing the pressure in the pump air space where the penis is placed. Vacuum pumps are used to treat impotence, so they should be used only according to the instructions. Among the negative consequences of such use is the darkening of the body due to multiple bruises and bruises, increased trauma to the body.
- Use expansion.A special device of mechanical action that promotes penis enlargement. To achieve a tangible effect, it should be used for several years. Disadvantages of the device: High risk of penile damage (impaired blood flow leading to impotence). The development of negative consequences is also observed when using the device (hanging on the body, causing it to bend and deform).
- Additives and other herbal preparations.Opinions of doctors on this issue are different, as many experts consider such therapy only as helpful. Therefore, the patient should clearly realize that it is almost impossible to enlarge the body while taking the pills. Such funds can be used to improve potential in general.
Reviews of physicians and patients
The answers of doctors and patients have different answers, as a lot depends on the presence of certain indications, the general condition of the body and the readiness for surgery.
Surgeon Review: "As a qualified surgeon, I would like to say that penis enlargement surgeries should be performed if there are convincing instructions. Most often, such manipulations are performed with severe deformity of the body, congenital anomalies and very small size of the penis. And rule out possible contraindications. "
Patient testimony: "Yes, I have problems because I have a small penis. I went to the hospital a few times, but the doctors say there is no testimony and that's it. I want to go abroad and try phalloplasty but I do not know how safe this operation is. "
