Penis enlargement surgery: weighing the pros and cons

Every year about 8. 5 thousand such operations are performed in the world. 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 the same amount of flesh is hidden from view 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 - fortunately it stretches easily. This operation can increase the length by 2-5 cm.

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

And what will I get?

1. Self confidence. There is no escape from this: a large penis in our society is considered something honorable.
2. Reliability. If you decide to have a full-fledged operation, you can be sure 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 will have to forget about sex for at least a couple of months. The doctor may also prescribe various unpleasant procedures after surgery. For example, in order to prevent the penis from retracting back, 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 13 cm long sold best.
3. Price. The most expensive thing is muscle tissue transplantation to increase the diameter.

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

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