After trying all methods: from pills and creams to extreme NUP, men, dissatisfied with the size of their genitals, decide that penis enlargement surgery is the only possible solution.
We will review all types of surgical interventions in the male intimate sphere, find out the approximate prices and clinics where such operations are performed.
Men are divided into several categories:
- to have an average size, which suits him and his partner perfectly;
- has a normal size medium or large, but would like to have an even larger one;
- has a small penis and wants to enlarge it (remember that the lower limit of the normal length of the erect penis is considered to be 7 cm);
- there are consequences of penile injury or disease.
Surgical enlargement of the penis is performed both for medical reasons and for the purpose of cosmetic correction of the appearance.
Which doctor should I contact?
Since male penis enlargement operations belong to the category of plastic surgery, namely intimate plastic surgery, it is advisable to seek the help of a plastic surgeon specialized in urology or andrology.
Before contacting a correction center, consult an andrologist or urologist; they may advise you on a less traumatic procedure to enhance your problem - for example, a hyaluronic injection in the penis.
The level of development of plastic surgery will make it possible to effectively enlarge the penis in clinics in the big cities of our country and in foreign countries.
More than 10 thousand such operations are performed every year in the world and the number of interventions is increasing.
Types of operations
Penile enlargement is the lengthening or thickening of the penis.
There are the following types of operations to surgically resize the penis:
Non-surgical technique - penile injections with hyaluronic acid.
Let's take a closer look at what the intervention consists of, how much penile surgery will cost, how it will happen and its consequences.
Ligamentotomy
One of the common operations that increase the length of the penis is ligamentotomy. It is performed in all clinics, it is often performed not for medical reasons, but at the request of men.
The operation is low-traumatic, performed with a small incision in the scrotum under anesthesia and lasts within an hour.
Enlargement of the penis can reach 5 cm. The extension can be continued with extenders for up to 6 months with the recommendation of the surgeon.
Lipofilling
This method will increase the thickness of the penis by 2-3 surgical centimeters.
It is performed for aesthetic reasons by a man who considers his organ delicate. An important condition is the correspondence of the length and thickness of the intimate part.
How will this operation take place? From the surgical point of view, it is not classified as complex:
Microsurgical muscle transplantation
This method of surgical penis enlargement is performed for medical and aesthetic reasons.
Medical indications are due to:
The operation is performed under general anesthesia for several hours:
Rehabilitation lasts 1, 5 - 2 months.
Penile prosthesis
The penis prosthesis was performed for the first time in our country in 1936. Inspired by the presence of a special bone in the penis of sea and seals, surgeon N. A. Bogoraz transplanted the costal cartilage into the patient's corpus cavernosum.
In modern clinics, other materials are used for plastic surgery. The discovery of silicone prostheses belongs to American scientists.
Such prostheses are inconvenient - the penis is always standing.
Inflatable and self-inflating prostheses are more physiological. By pressing the scrotum, a special pump is activated, which fills the prosthesis with air or liquid from a hidden balloon.

Insertion of implants
Penile augmentation involves the use of gel or silicone encapsulated implants instead of those taken from the man's own tissue.
Requirements for them:
Augmented endoprosthesis has a number of advantages:
To perform such an operation, an incision is made along the coronary sulcus 2. 5-3 cm long, channels are formed at the root of the penis, encapsulated implants are inserted and can be fixed in the tunica albuginea.
Injections
Hyaluronic acid injections will allow you to increase the length by 1-3 cm and the thickness by 3-5 cm. A minimum general clinical examination is required first. This surgical treatment is performed on an outpatient basis:
Collagen matrix
The operation is performed at the husband's request. Instead of your own tissues, special capsules are inserted into the penis, which stimulate the organ to produce its own connective tissue.
Indications for surgery
Medical indications for phalloplasty relate to:
Other programs that allow you to enlarge the penis are performed at the request of the patient.
Contraindications are the same for any planned surgical intervention:
Possible complications
Complications usually occur after phalloplasty. They consist of the following:
recovery
The longest recovery period is observed after phalloplasty. Hospital stay reaches 2 weeks. For 2 months, physical activity and sexual life are limited. This also applies to lipofilling. The remaining interventions allow sexual activity after 2 weeks.
Which clinics offer augmentation services?
As a rule, these are private medical centers and clinics that deal with men's health issues. There are such centers in many cities of our country. You can learn about the location of such centers from a urologist or andrologist at a state clinic.
Affordable penis enlargement surgery is performed in neighboring countries.
Surgical treatment is successfully performed in clinics in Israel, Germany, USA and Latin American countries.
You can get help in foreign clinics thanks to the development of medical tourism.
How much does the operation cost?
An analysis of the prices of penile enlargement operations shows a wide range in the cost of treatment and depends on the type of treatment:
- ligamentotomy;
- lipofilling;
- microsurgical muscle transplantation;
- penile prosthesis;
- insertion of implants;
- collagen matrix insertion.
- The doctor surgically cuts the ligaments that connect the sexual organ to the pelvic bones. Penis enlargement occurs by stretching the inside of the genital organ and fixing it in a new position.
Penis enlargement with prosthesis
Often men are embarrassed by the appearance of the penis in a relaxed state. With the help of an implant, your penis always has its maximum length and girth.
2 models of penile implants:
- semi-solid
- three-component (hydraulic).
In both cases, silicone cylinders are inserted inside the corpora cavernosa, thanks to which the penis always has maximum length and thickness.
Always have a strong erection and maximum size.
Advantages of this operation
- You always have a penis of maximum length and diameter
- Unlimited intercourse time
- Always a strong erection
- Lifetime warranty
- Effect for life
minuses
- The penis no longer extends during erection
- The cost of the operation
- Abstinence 6 weeks
Ligamentotomy: lengthening of the penis
The essence of the operation
During the operation, the supporting ligaments at the base of the penis are cut
outcome
After cutting the ligaments, the inner part of the penis is released, which can reach 2-3 cm
No visible traces
Access to the ligaments through the scrotum. After the operation, there are no visible stitches left.
Advantages of this operation
- Low price
- No wounds
minuses
- Mandatory wearing of an extender after surgery for 6 months
- The result most often does not exceed 2 cm
How is ligamentotomy performed?
The ligaments heal quickly and painlessly, and if you keep them in the "long" position for a long enough time, two or three months, they will be permanently fixed in this position.
The operation is performed under general anesthesia and lasts no more than 1 hour. The impressions after the operation are almost the same as if you had sewn up a large incision - it is a little sore and itchy. If all prescribed hygienic procedures are followed, the healing process proceeds quickly - after two to three weeks there will be practically no traces.
After the operation, a special device is placed on the penis - an extender, which will add one and a half to two cm to the length of the penis after the operation plus 1-2. 5 cm.
The extender is not worn all the time, but according to a certain pattern, and you yourself adjust the strength of the extension. The main thing is to be comfortable and feel an easy stretch.
Technique
This technique is considered one of the simplest. The procedure lasts no more than 2 hours, is performed under local anesthesia and does not require hospitalization of the patient.
Like all surgical operations, lipofilling for penis enlargement is performed in several stages:
- Preparation. Medical examination, analysis (general blood test, urine analysis, electrocardiogram), consultation, examination by specialists in the relevant fields.
- Collection of raw materials. Determining the area from which fat can be taken for later processing and injection. Most often these are the thighs, buttocks or abdomen.
- Material preparation – centrifugation, tissue cleaning.
- The presentation. In this case, autologous fat is injected into the muscles, after which it forms and gradually becomes redundant with blood vessels. As a result, it becomes part of the organ, is not digested and is not excreted from the body.
Experts have different opinions about the survival rate of the material.Proponents of radical correction methods claim that only 30-50 percent of auto-fat is adjusted. Other experts insist that this figure is 70-90% and depends on the quality of the processing of the clothes.
To ensure the maximum effect of the procedure, seek the help of doctors who have the necessary permits. They will carry out the correction in accordance with all the requirements of the technology.
Possible complications
Despite its safety and simplicity, lipofilling is a surgical procedure. Therefore, when agreeing to penile correction, a man should be prepared for possible complications.
Among the observed side effects, experts call:
- accumulation of fat under the skin;
- fibrosis;
- the appearance of edema not only of the organ itself, but also of the lower extremities;
- pain during urination;
- suppuration in the genitals.
The listed reactions appear extremely rarely and more often as a result of an operation performed by unqualified specialists. To prevent complications, be responsible when choosing a clinic and a doctor to whom you trust such an important organ.
reHabiLitatiON
Unlike more radical methods of correcting the size and volume of the penis, lipofilling has a short rehabilitation period. It will take about a month to fully recover from the surgery.
During this time, the following rules must be strictly observed:
- Avoid sexual intercourse for 3 weeks so that the microtraumas heal.
- Taking antibiotics and pain relievers prescribed by your doctor.
- Regular care, antiseptic measures.
- Refusal of physical activity.
For 4-6 weeks, a man should wear comfortable underwear made of natural materials that do not rub or damage the fabric. You should also carefully monitor the condition of the genital organ and, at the slightest deviation from the norm, seek help from specialists.
Indications and contraindications
Of course, the main indication for lipofilling of the penis is dissatisfaction with its size or volume. Surgery may also be required to correct the results of a previously performed procedure. But, like all surgical methods, it has a number of contraindications.
- infectious diseases;
- HIV, hepatitis;
- diabetes mellitus of any type;
- bleeding disorders;
- cardiovascular and nervous system diseases;
- congenital deformity of the penis;
- oncology;
- purulent inflammation;
- mental disorders.
If the immune system is weakened, this is also a contraindication. However, many of the limitations listed are very relative (for example, congenital deformity). Therefore, the final decision is made by the doctor after examining the patient.
Opinions
Lipofilling of the penis is the simplest method for correcting its size and volume. The great advantage of the technique is the minimal number of risks, since foreign bodies are not introduced into the patient (as is the case with implants). Therefore, the material will not be rejected and will not cause allergies.
Today, this operation has become very popular and has extremely positive reviews from patients. According to men who have already resorted to this method, lipofilling is an excellent solution for two problems at once: the insufficient length of the penis and the removal of excess fat from the abdomen or thighs.
The operation is performed within 1-2 hours, after which you can go home and continue rehabilitation on an outpatient basis. As for the duration of the effect, judging by the reviews, it lasts from 7 years and does not require additional correction.
Let's summarize
Many men from adolescence suffer from the main complex - insufficient length and volume of the penis. And if before it was not possible to correct the situation, today genital lipofilling helps to solve it - a simple operation that involves taking fat from an area, processing it and injecting it into the problem area.
This procedure does not take long, has few limitations and pleases with the longevity of the final result.
Preparation for surgery
If this is the first time you see a plastic surgeon, then, of course, you should know in advance how the preparation for the operation and the surgical process itself takes place.
To begin with, the possibilities of penis enlargement or thickening are discussed. Then comes the testing: it is important to know if there is hidden inflammation in the body, how high the hemoglobin is, if the heart can withstand the anesthesia, etc. The list of tests includes biochemical and clinical blood tests, tests for AIDS, hepatitis B and C, blood group and Rh factor tests; examination by a urologist and other tests.
It is important to know for which diseases the operation is not performed:
- chronic infections;
- cardiovascular diseases, lung, kidney, liver diseases;
- diabetes.
If the results are normal, an operation date is set. As usual, eating the day before is prohibited - you must go to the operation on an empty stomach. In the period after surgery, it is not recommended to drink alcohol, which has a bad effect on healing.
The operation is performed under general anesthesia and lasts an average of 1 hour. During this time, the superficial suspensory ligament is crossed. The second, stronger and deeper-lying ligament, the sling-shaped ligament, will then be responsible for supporting the penis.
Penile lipofilling is a procedure for thickening the penis, in which fat is first pumped from one area using a syringe and a thick hollow needle - a cannula - and then pumped into another, forming additional volume. Adipose tissue is taken from those places where there is usually an excess of it: abdomen, hips, lower back. Accurate sampling of adipose tissue is painless and harmless because the cannula has a special design with a rounded tip.
When injected into a place where fatty tissue accumulates, it dilates blood vessels and nerves without damaging them. The vacuum in the syringe causes the fat cells to be detached and sucked into the syringe.
Then they are transferred to the desired place and injected under the skin, forming new strong penis volumes.
Since the adipose tissue belongs to the patient himself, there is no rejection - it takes root well without causing any discomfort.
There are several other methods for penis enlargement. For example, injection of fillers (gels) based on hyaluronic acid. However, the effect of such procedures is short-lived, lasting about 1 year. After which repeated injections are required.
Lipofilling of the penis is an absolutely natural method, the effect of which, unlike fillers, lasts for life.
How many centimeters can you grow your penis?
After the operation, the penis will become 0. 5-1. 5 centimeters thicker, which is quite enough. Thin punctures are closed with surgical plasters and heal quickly so that no marks remain.
Censorship restrictions do not allow the display of photos before and after lipofilling of the penis. However, comments from satisfied patients speak for themselves - you can read them in the corresponding section on the website.
How long can you not have sex after penile lipofilling?
After surgery, it is important to follow all the doctor's recommendations. After changing the dimensions, the erection will remain the same and in some cases it will even improve. But one of the main questions remains: how long does abstinence last after the intervention?
The body needs time to heal wounds and scars after surgery, so it is recommended to abstain from sex for 3 weeks when the penis is lengthened, 4 weeks when it is thickened and for 1. 5 months when both surgeries are combined.
In the first weeks, it is necessary to monitor the wounds, change the bandages and take antibiotics on time if recommended by the doctor. Then, when sex life returns to normal, all restrictions can be lifted.
What other ways are there to increase height?
Each person has a possible physiological limit to the length of the penis. Ligamentotomy will allow you to release the existing "hidden" centimeters. Distraction (stretching) methods can add 1 to 3 cm.
If the patient wants to achieve the maximum effect as soon as possible, we suggest adding to the complex enlargement of the penis -liposuction of the pubic area.
This is a fairly simple and standard procedure for plastic surgery, because of this, you can add another 1 to 3 centimeters. At the same time, the penis will not only look bigger in a relaxed state, but also during sexual intercourse the penetration will be deeper.
Who is suitable for penis enlargement surgery?
Penile lengthening and thickening surgery is right for you if:
- you are unhappy with the appearance of your penis
- you lack pleasant sensations during sexual intercourse
- your partner lacks pleasant sensations
- has a problem with premature ejaculation (no control over the duration of intercourse)
Important In addition to the desire to improve the appearance and functional qualities of the penis, you must clearly understand the importance of following all the doctor's recommendations. This operation is not suitable for those who are not willing to fulfill the basic condition of recovery after the operation.
Four possible alternatives for penis enlargement:
Silicone implants
Principle: A silicone implant is placed on the shaft of the penis. Due to this, the penis becomes bigger.
Reality: The implant is strong and heavy. The normal strength of the erection is not enough to erect the penis. The sensitivity disappears. The penis cannot contract. Deformation of the penis occurs.
Stitching of muscle tissue under the skin
Principle: The patient's muscle is cut. It is then placed under the skin of the penis.
Reality: This is the most traumatic surgery possible. But this is not the main problem. The muscle, even if supplied with blood flow, dries up. The effect of the operation does not last long. And the operation directly affects the erection.
Filler injections and lipofilling
Principle: pump insoluble gel, hyaluronic acid or fat cells into the layer between the shaft of the penis and the skin.
Reality: Fat spreads and accumulates. Gels do not hold their shape, roll, block, etc. This is a sure way to end up back on the operating table; all drugs injected under the skin should be removed.
Extending the penis with an extender
Principle: Every tissue in the human body can be stretched.
If you still decide to have an operation, you need to prepare for it. Let us tell you in more detail.
Reality: A lot depends on genetics. If you wear the extender for a total of 1000 hours without ligamentotomy surgery, you can get an increase of up to 1-2 cm as a result. This is a long and inconvenient process. Excessive exercise can result in injuries leading to Peyronie's disease.
Preparation for penis enlargement surgery
ANALYSIS
- Hospital surgical complexincludes a blood test for infections (determination of antibodies to the causative agent of syphilis, hepatitis B and C viruses, as well as antibodies to HIV), a clinical blood test, standard indicators of blood biochemistry, as well as blood group and Rh factor. and control of the blood coagulation system - the main indicators of hemostasis (coagulograms).
- Electrocardiography (ECG)
You can be tested at the clinic or any suitable laboratory. Standard turnaround time for results is 1 business day. The results are valid for 7 days before the operation.
On an empty stomach
The last meal before surgery should be at least 6 hours before.
What can plastic do?
Some people do not believe in the reality of penis enlargement through surgery. This is due to the dominance of various types of "vacuum scams" and sales of miracle pills. As you understand, these semi-mystical potions only work well in the imagination. While plastic surgery, which has proven itself with decades of work all over the world, can give real results.
How many centimeters can plastic surgery add to the penis?
The operation itself to lengthen the penis is not complicated. The fact is that the penis is initially 4-5 centimeters longer than what we see. This hidden part is located under the pubic bone. The penis is held in this position by a special suspensory ligament. Its structure is such that, after being stretched, the ligament remains so for a long time. By contracting - too. The doctor's task is to release the ligament in order to release the hidden part of the penis. This is achieved by cutting the ligament, which is then stretched. In this new state for herself, she "releases" the same 3-5 centimeters of the penis.
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).
