Representatives of the stronger sex are almost always dissatisfied with the size of their manhood. To increase the length of the penis, they start using different medications, ointments and creams. Desperate men undergo penis enlargement surgery - ligamentotomy. The procedure allows you to enlarge the penis by several centimeters.

Indications

Ligamentotomy is a surgical procedure to enlarge the penis, characterized by the intersection of the suspensory ligament. The ligament is located deep in the pelvis and is attached to the bony apparatus, and may also be long enough to cross it and enlarge the penis.

  • hypospadias and epispadias;
  • changes that manifest themselves during man's adult life;
  • prolonged sexual arousal and prolonged pathological erection;
  • decreased self-confidence with insufficient penis size;

Preparation

To perform a ligamentotomy, a repeated consultation with a surgeon is required. During the consultation, the doctor collects the patient's medical history, warns about the risks and effectiveness of the operation and also sends them for diagnosis. You need to go through:

  • fluorography;
  • tests for HIV, syphilis;
  • blood tests for sexually transmitted diseases;
  • examination by a psychiatrist;
  • electrocardiogram;
  • general and biochemical analysis of blood, urine;
  • blood tests for Rh, blood group;
  • diagnosis of the presence of hepatitis B and C;
  • bacteriological smear from the urethral canal;
  • consultation with an anesthesiologist, as well as, if necessary, consultation with other specialists.

Surgical manipulation is prescribed in the morning. The night before surgery you should:

  • Avoid drinking alcoholic beverages and smoking;
  • limit food intake;
  • eliminate the use of medications;
  • remove hair from the groin area, genitals and scrotum.

Arrive for the ligamentotomy exactly at the specified time with all necessary documents and exams.

Operation

The manipulation mechanism is carried out in several steps. Initially, the patient receives an anesthetic to relieve pain. During the consultation the type of anesthesia will be discussed.

Surgical intervention is performed in two ways.

Through the pubis

Initially, surgeons used this method. This technique is not positive due to the numerous scars, trauma to the penis and the duration of the intervention is more than 60 minutes. The type of ligamentotomy has more contraindications and negative factors, which is why it is no longer performed.

Through the scrotum

The surgeon makes an incision in the upper part of the scrotum. It dissects the ligament, after which it is possible to separate and extend the penis from the tissues. The doctor fixes the phallus in a new position. The penis is extended from the tunnel space using a specialized device - an extender. The cavity is filled with autologous fat. After that, seams are applied. The duration of the surgical intervention is 15 to 30 minutes.

During the healing period, a scar forms between the pubic area and the penis, preventing the penis from returning to its place.

Consequences

Manipulation is not a complicated process, therefore complications and side effects occur very rarely. Rare cases may show:

  • suppuration and wound infection;
  • bleeding;
  • lack of results;
  • swelling of the penis;
  • deformation of male dignity;
  • erectile dysfunction;
  • bruises;
  • decreased sensitivity of the penis;
  • formation of scars on the surface of the phallus.

If any of the symptoms appear, you should contact your doctor for assistance and elimination of the defects.

Rehabilitation

After surgery, the patient remains in a medical center under the supervision of medical staff.

To prevent negative painful and inflammatory processes, the patient is prescribed antibiotics, anti-inflammatory drugs and analgesics. Medications, duration, dosage and type of administration are determined by the doctor individually for each patient.

Sutures are removed 7 to 8 days after the procedure. After discharge, the doctor determines the home regimen and wound care. Rehabilitation includes:

  1. Regular use of medications as directed by your doctor.
  2. Avoid sexual and physical activity for up to three weeks.
  3. Wear specialized underwear that supports the penis in one position.
  4. Regular hygiene and suture treatment.
  5. Visit your doctor.

After the operation, a special stretcher is placed, which helps to keep the manhood in the same position and does not allow it to return to its original position. It is characterized by a gentler effect and does not press or rub the scar. The duration of use is determined by the doctor, but not less than 21 days.

After three months, an extender is placed on the man's phallus. At first, the device is used for several hours, while the duration increases. Daily usage time increases to 8 hours per day. The longitudinal traction device must be used daily for at least 4 months. After two months the result will be noticeable.

The use of the extender and the duration of use are determined by the attending physician individually for each patient, based on the structural and physiological characteristics of the man.

If all recommendations are followed and specialized devices are used correctly, the result will be noticeable within six months. The manhood can increase in length by up to 5 cm by cutting the ligaments and lengthening the phallus.

Complications

Modern diagnostics and methods of performing operations do not cause serious disorders, as well as pathological changes in the process of performing ligamentotomy. The procedure has a minimum of contraindications, but complications may arise due to incorrect work by the specialist:

  • the phallus has shrunk or remained unchanged;
  • manifestations of coarse scars of epithelial tissue;
  • deformation of male dignity;
  • swelling of the testicles, prolapse of the testicles;
  • tissue death;
  • displacement of hair from the groin to the phallus;
  • erectile dysfunction;
  • penile instability during sexual intercourse;
  • severe sensitivity of the penis or absence.
