Penis Enlargement Surgery: Weighing the Pros and Cons

About 8. 5 thousand such operations are performed worldwide every year. We tell you what all these men risked and what they got in return.

How is everything going?

What you see between your legs is not the whole penis. Part of it is located inside the body, in the pubic area. And this part is not small: about as much flesh is invisible as is visible from the outside. During the operation it is taken out and fixed closer to the surface. To do this, the skin is removed and then pulled back - luckily it can be easily stretched. This process can increase the length by 2-5 cm.

If you are more interested in thickness, doctors can offer gel injections, autologous fat and synthetic plates. This allows the volume to be increased by 1 cm. Need more? There is also such a procedure: on the operating table, the penis is wrapped with a flap of skin containing subcutaneous fat. It is taken from your own buttocks. If this is not enough, a piece of muscle can be transplanted.

And what do I get?

1. Confidence. There is no getting around it: a large penis is considered something honorable in our society.
2. Reliability. If you choose full-fledged surgery, you can be assured that the results will last a lifetime.
3. The ability to have sex with micropenisia. For men whose penis size is no more than 5 cm, surgery is the only way to start an intimate life.

What are the disadvantages?

1. Pain, anesthesia and a long rehabilitation period. You need to forget about sex for at least a few months. The doctor may also prescribe various unpleasant procedures after the operation. For example, to prevent the penis from retracting, you need to wear an extender for 8 hours a day.
2. A dubious advantage in bed. In the USA, managers of sex shops were surveyed: It turned out that artificial phalluses with a length of 13 cm sold best.
3. Price. The most expensive is the transplantation of muscle tissue to increase the diameter.

4. The doctor may refuse surgery. This rarely happens, but it does happen.
5. Serious health risks – and that is the main argument against it. Here are the risks of an unsuccessful surgery:
• Bleeding when urinating
• Pain during erection
• Reduction in sensitivity
• Penile deformity
• Infections and scarring
• Necrosis of tissue introduced to increase diameter
• Loss of potency

Doctors warn that penis enlargement is a risky step and should only be attempted as a last resort.
