Ligamentotomy is a low-trauma plastic surgery that allows you to increase the length of the penis (penis).
Penis size is an important aspect of a man's sex life. In cases of dissatisfaction with the size of the penis, a man can have problems not only in intimate relationships, but also in the social sphere.
Penis enlargement methods
There is a wide range of methods for increasing the length of the penis. Their descriptions promise penis enlargement without surgery. These methods include various gels, creams, dietary supplements, and even injections. Unfortunately, they are all ineffective and at best harmless when used.
Among the non-surgical methods, the use of vacuum pumps and erection rings is worth mentioning. These devices allow to some extent an increase in the size of the penis in an aroused state, but their effect is temporary.
Penis enlargement surgery, ligamentotomy
Currently, only with the help of surgical techniques, it is possible to significantly increase the length of the penis. The most common, effective and low-trauma technique is ligamentotomy, a partial transection of the ligament that supports the penis. This ligament fixes the penis to the pubic bones. As you know, there is a free (visible) part of the penis and an inner (hidden) part, fixed, including the ligament that supports the penis. When it is partially crossed, it becomes possible to release up to 4 centimeters from the inside of the penis.
The operation to increase the length of the penis is performed on the day of hospitalization and lasts about half an hour. After preliminary preparation, anesthesia and antiseptic treatment in a sterile operating room, a cosmetic approach is performed on the anterior surface of the scrotum, followed by access to the ligament that supports the penis and its partial transection.
After surgery, the patient spends several hours in the hospital or may stay overnight.
After surgery
After discharge, it is necessary to limit physical activity to 1 month, as well as compresses for some time. During the entire period of recovery after the operation (about a month), it is necessary to give up sexual activity in any form, including masturbation. At the end of the recovery period, the man can fully return to his intimate life. At about the same time, a seam made with a special cosmetic technique becomes almost invisible.
Your doctor will talk to you individually about possible complications and contraindications.
Wearing a stretcher after surgery
To achieve a good result, after the operation you must use a special device - a stretcher (or extender). The purpose of carrying the stretcher was to prevent the recovery of the transected part of the ligament and to record the result of the surgical intervention.
After penile lengthening surgery, the stretcher / extender should be worn every day for the first 2 hours, gradually increasing this time to 6-8 hours per day.
The minimum time to wear a stretcher after surgery is 2 months. The result of penis enlargement largely depends on the method and discipline of the man, as well as on the proper wearing of the stretcher. Improper use of the device can cause complications, for example, paraphimosis, so you must carefully follow all the prescriptions of your doctor.
After completing the recovery course, you can count on increasing the length of the man to 5 cm.
