Penis enlargement is one of the most popular male surgeries, which can be performed for both cosmetic and medical reasons.
In the last case, we are talking about the following violations:
- cavernous fibrosis, in which the penile tissue is partially replaced by cartilage;
- underdevelopment of the penis;
- erectile dysfunction, the causes of which are the interruption of blood vessels of the penis or Peyronie's disease;
- endocrine impotence, which developed against the background of diabetes mellitus;
- a history of unsuccessful penile surgery;
- the need to eliminate the consequences of operations on the prostate, bladder and rectum.
Penis enlargement has a number of contraindications:
- severe form of diabetes mellitus;
- oncology;
- venereal diseases;
- worsening of chronic diseases of the genitourinary system (prostatitis, urethritis, cystitis);
- genital herpes;
- the presence of ulcers and wounds on the penis.
- blood coagulation disorder;
- the patient has a mental disorder.
What kind of penis can be considered normal?
It is believed that the normal length of the erect penis is between 12 and 18 cm. The average length of the penis in men in our country is 15. 7 cm. A penis with a length of less than 9. 5 cm is considered a small penis. and less than 2 cm is considered a small penis. micropenis. There are cases when men are dissatisfied with the shape of the penis, for subjective reasons or due to objective violations of the geometry of the penis (deformation of the head).
The surgical method of penis enlargement
In order to surgically lengthen the penis, ligamentotomy is used.
The essence of the operation is to increase the hanging part of the penis by reducing its perineal (hidden) part. This is achieved by crossing part of the ligamentous apparatus of the penis, which holds it in the perineal area.
It is clear that the penis itself does not change in size. There is a redistribution of length towards the increase of its dependent part.
This plastic surgery allows you to increase the length of the hanging part of the penis by 2-5 cm. It is performed under general anesthesia.
Non-surgical augmentation method
Non-surgical methods of penis enlargement include the use of a special stretching device - an extender. The method is based on the physiological response of living tissues to the application of traction force. Any part of the human body subjected to stretching responds to such stress with accelerated cell division and an increase in tissue mass.
Using a penis extender is not difficult. It can be worn throughout the day and the patient can stand, lie down, walk or sit. An extension of 3-5 cm occurs when the extender is used for 6 months.
When the extender is used properly, there are no side effects, no thinning of the penis, and no effect on fertility or potency. This method allows you to achieve a constant increase (that does not change over time) in the length of the penis.
The combined method of penis enlargement
It is more effective. In the first stage, a surgical operation is performed, then an extender is used according to the classical method. The effectiveness of the method is due to the fact that after ligamentotomy the "hidden" part of the penis is released. This leads to the fact that the expander initially affects a larger volume of the penis. Therefore, it is possible to achieve greater results.
Thickening of the glans penis
Patients often come to the clinic to increase the volume of the glans for more comfortable wear of the extender, as well as for the treatment of premature ejaculation.
Surgical enlargement of the penis
Surgical enlargement of the penis can be done in several ways. Thus, an operation called "ligamentotomy" allows you to increase the hanging (free) part of the penis by reducing its perineal (hidden) part. In this case, the elements of the ligamentous apparatus, which holds the penis in the perineal area, are corrected. Strictly speaking, in this case, the original dimensions of the penis remain unchanged, since there is only a redistribution of length.
An alternative option for lengthening the penis is the implantation of an endoprosthesis, which is significantly longer, in the internal space of the organ. Such an endoprosthetic can be accompanied by total mobilization of the penile cross, but it should be borne in mind that this step leads to inevitable damage to the deep cavernous arteries and pudendal nerves. As a result, erectile dysfunction may develop, so this type of penis enlargement surgery is not recommended for absolutely healthy men without accompanying erectile dysfunction.
Thickening of the penis
Currently, the most popular method for increasing the thickness of the penis islipofilling(transplantation of own adipose tissue). This penis enlargement surgery is performed under general anesthesia. In the first stage of the surgical intervention, fat cells are collected through special skin punctures in the donor areas (abdomen, thigh) using a syringe and a hollow needle (cannula).
Due to the fact that the end of the cannula is rounded, large vessels and nerves are not damaged when the needle moves under the skin. The plastic syringe absorbs only fat cells, as well as a small amount of blood that is formed when small vessels are damaged. Special processing of the resulting fat suspension makes it possible to obtain "pure" adipose tissue, which is then placed in thin layers under the skin of the penis through micropunctures.
After the operation, the punctures are sutured and closed with surgical plaster. Lipofilling allows you to increase the diameter of the penis by 0. 5 - 1. 5 cm, and thanks to gravity, a non-erectile penis can increase in size by 1-2 cm in the future.
Another method of penis thickening involves the transfer of a section of the rectus abdominis muscle under the skin of the penis, in which axial blood circulation is preserved. The flap obtained during the operation is wrapped around the penis along its entire length. With this approach, the possibility of transplant rejection is significantly reduced, because the muscles simply unfold into full-fledged feeding vessels. Such an enlargement of the penis in the clinic requires the patient to refuse physical activity for six months (violation of this recommendation can lead to the development of a postoperative hernia of the anterior abdominal wall).
Enlargement of the head of the penis
This manipulation can be performed either in combination with penis enlargement or as a separate procedure. The most common reasons for enlargement of the head of the penis in the clinic are:
- discrepancy between the diameters of the shaft and the head of the penis;
- the impossibility of lengthening the penis using an extender due to the insufficient size of the head (the device cannot be fixed properly);
- the need to maintain the correct dimensions of the enlarged penis.
One of the popular ways to enlarge the head is to insert a special matrix between it and the corpora cavernosa, which increases the diameter of the head both in an elevated and in a relaxed state. The main disadvantage of this technique is the high risk of penile tissue necrosis, because blood supply vessels are inevitably cut during the operation.
Injections into the head of the penis with a gel containing hyaluronic acid are considered a safer method. This approach allows you to achieve the required volume in a non-erect state, which is an important point when lengthening the penis with an extender. Unfortunately, after 1-1, 5 years the gel gradually dissolves, so this procedure must be repeated periodically.
Penis enlargement: pros and cons
The list of arguments in favor of penis enlargement surgery includes:
- simplicity and safety of this surgical intervention;
- positive impact on a man's sexual and psychological health;
- improving the quality of intimate life;
- Maintenance of penis length growth throughout life.
Surgical enlargement of the penis also has its opponents,
which give the following arguments:
- the possibilities of surgical intervention are quite limited - the enlargement of the penis in this way does not exceed 5 cm in length and 6 cm in width;
- traces of the operation may remain in the operated organ;
- the short duration of the results of the operation (when the penis thickens, the resulting volume lasts at best for several years);
- possible complications (bleeding, wound infection, pain during erection, postoperative wound suffocation).
Results of the operation
Surgical enlargement of the penis, reviews of which can be found on many websites, allows you to add from 1 to 3. 5 cm to its length. Extending the penis using a special stretcher (extender) allows you to add up to 2 cm to this figure.
It is worth remembering that without an extender, the operation is ineffective and the length of the penis does not change. In the vast majority of cases, the lack of results after the intervention is explained by the fact that the stretcher was either not used or was used incorrectly.
The effectiveness of using an extender depends on the following conditions:
- the initial length of the penis (the bigger it is, the better it can be achieved). That is why after ligamentotomy you can get the most impressive results;
- the correctness of the anatomy of the penis (affects the possibility of attachment of the extender);
- age (the elasticity and ability of tissues to stretch decreases with their growth);
- patient persistence (the more often and longer the device is used, the better the effect can be achieved).
Thinner but taller or thicker but shorter? What is more important?
We have previously written about the criteria for normal penis size in different races and nationalities, as well as what is a small penis and a micropenis.
Today we will talk about the criteria for penis size and ways to increase its volume.
It should be noted that some men are not satisfied with the ratio of the proportions of length and diameter - for example, a penis of standard length, but with a small diameter.
Often patients are not satisfied with the size and shape of the head of the penis.
What is more important: length or width?
Based on numerous studies and surveys, the vast majority of women note their preference for the diameter of the penis rather than its length. For a woman, height is not important, but thickness.
It has been proven that a penis with a larger diameter stimulates the G-zone area of the vagina much more effectively and is more tightly gripped by the orgasmic cuff.
A very long penis causes pain and discomfort during intercourse. There are no sensitive areas deep in the vagina. It follows that a long and thin erect penis is of little importance to the partner, given the anatomy of the vagina.
The depth of a woman's vagina in a non-excited state is 7-12 cm, and the width is approximately 2-3 fingers.
But in an excited state, a woman's genitals are narrowed and elongated, and the maximum sensitivity is located at the beginning of the vagina, 3-5 cm. Therefore, for maximum pleasure, the diameter of the penis is much more important, not its length.
Thickening of the penis
Thickening of the shaft of the penis is an increase in its volume due to injections of special drugs or performing intimate plastic surgery using the transplant method.
There are no direct medical indications for this type of medical intervention.
The procedure is performed at the request of the patient if he is dissatisfied with the size of the penis.
Previously, lipofilling of autologous fat and injection of hyaluronic acid fillers were frequently used methods for penile thickening, but dissatisfaction with the results and the resulting volume loss within 6-9 months forced us to abandon these methods.
Currently, we perform penile thickening using intimate plastic surgery with injectable polylactic acid (PLA) fillers.
Polylactic acid is a safe and completely harmless component for the human body. It is present in the tissues of every person and is synthesized by the body.
However, to perform any injection and cosmetic procedure, it is required to be taken in an artificial environment.
The substance is very effective, does not pose a threat to health and does not have the ability to accumulate in structures.
In addition, it is hypoallergenic and has been widely used in the field of aesthetic medicine.
Penile thickening by inserting a filler based on polylactic acid under the skin of the shaft
For this method of penis enlargement, we use the latest technique - subcutaneous injection of a synthetic liquid implant.
The drug is a suspension of biodegradable microgranules made of polylactic acid. It is absolutely safe, hypoallergenic and officially approved for use.
Polylactic acid introduced under the skin, being dissolved, causes neocollagenesis - active growth of connective tissue cells.
As a result of the effect, a dense collagen framework is formed and the volume of the shaft of the penis increases in the entire area of administration of the drug.
Be sure, go to your goal!
Before the procedure, the patient is given local anesthesia (penile nerve block). Then, PowerFill is dissolved in a sterile solution and injected into the layer between the skin and the fascia of the penis evenly along the entire axis of the penis or locally (at the request of the patient).
The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis and lasts an average of 20-30 minutes.
After the procedure, an elastic bandage is applied for up to 5 days. The average volume of the injected filler is from 24 cm3. up to 34 cm cu. accordingly, the penis grows simultaneously with the same volume with the further process of neocollagenesis.
Results of the procedure
Implant injections give the result in the form of a thickening of the penis by 2-2. 5 cm; at the request of the patient, a larger increase can be achieved.
The effect of the procedure lasts up to three years, and according to other sources, up to 5 years.
After this period, the effect does not disappear completely, but a slight decrease in the effect is observed. If the patient wishes, a small volume of filler can be re-injected afterwards.
The newly formed tissue has a natural elasticity to the touch, is absolutely sensitive, mobile and does not affect erectile function.
Sexual activity is allowed after 2-3 weeks.
Ways to enlarge the penis at home
It is possible to enlarge the penis when you are at home or during breaks at work, but before you start doing this, you should consult a urologist. He will allow, making sure that there are no general contraindications:
- Infectious diseases;
- Worsening of chronic processes;
- Venereal diseases;
- Inflammatory processes of the skin of the penis.

The soda method
This technique is promoted by all kinds of traditional medicine "doctors" and "academics". Most of these "gurus" don't even have a general medical education, let alone an academic degree. This method, according to them, works because of the effect of soda on the karmic connection of people with the forces of nature: fire, water, earth and air.
The usage algorithm can be as follows:
- Dissolve half a teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of water.
- After a shower or bath, pour the solution over your penis.
- Dry the organ with wet wipes.
This method will not give any effect and if you overdo it with baking soda you will experience skin irritation and itchy groin. Doctors clearly say that this is a direct fraud.
Jelqing method - does it help to enlarge the penis?
This method comes from traditional medicine. It is believed to have been used for centuries in the East, but doctors do not recommend its use. Although there is an effect from exercise, it is short-lived, lasting 2-3 hours. The maximum result does not exceed 1 cm. With frequent use, problems with potency, pain in the genital organs and bruises on the penis may appear.
There are two variations of the technique: dry and wet. In the first, they train without lubricant, and in the second, they use gel. It is especially effective to use the Jelqing method at the same time as using a special gel.
- Before starting the procedure, the penis should be brought to an excited state, 60-70%, but it should not be stiff.
- The penis is wrapped in a wet towel to steam it. This causes the corpora cavernosa of the penis to become elastic.
- Wrap your thumb and forefinger around the root of the penis and hold it there for about 10 seconds.
- Without opening the ring of fingers, direct them to the head. Reaching it, the first hand stops, but does not leave, and the second repeats the movement it has made. When the second hand approaches the first hand, it drops its head and begins to repeat the exercise.
On the first day they do it50-100repetitions, for 2-3 weeks increase the number to200 times. It is allowed to divide the procedure into parts with breaks of 15-30 minutes.
Male penis enlargement with vacuum pump
The procedure using vacuum pumps is used in medicine, but does not provide a lasting effect of penis enlargement. According to online reviews, the maximum result is 2-3 cm. The main indication for its purchase is erectile dysfunction. Doctors advise, if possible, to buy a more expensive hydropump. It is less traumatic, since in this case the penis is exposed to water. Both types of vacuum pumps cause a blood flow to the penis, which is responsible for their positive effect.
How to use the vacuum pump:
- Place the penis inside the balloon.
- Press the base against your pubis.
- Slowly pump the air using a bulb.
When using for the first time, you should stop exposure after 2-3 minutes. The maximum time should not exceed 30-40 minutes.
Using an extender
The device is used to stretch the penis. The device is used to lengthen, thicken and correct the curvature of the penis. For medical reasons, it is prescribed after surgical operations: prostatectomy (removal of the prostate gland), penile implantation and ligamentotomy.
There are three modifications of the device:
- harness. They are rarely used, they are uncomfortable to wear and put a lot of pressure on the genital organ. You can wear it for no more than 30 minutes, then a break should follow. The maximum wearing period is 6 hours per day.
- strap. It is most often recommended to be worn in the postoperative period. They grip the head tightly and cause less disturbance than flagellar mechanisms.
- Vacuum. The mechanism is based on the extraction of air from the chamber, which is placed on the head of the penis. Not recommended for long-term use as it promotes blistering.
- Vacuum adhesive. Not only a vacuum is used, but also a gel to hold the head.
Stretcher rise
Penis extension design. Often used in conjunction with an extender. The penis is fixed with elastic on the leg or on the shoulder. It is not noticeable in wide trousers, which allows you to use the stretcher in the workplace.
