Plastic surgeons have developed several surgical methods to achieve the desired male size. Ligamentotomy is a way to enlarge a man's penis, which experts say adds 2 to 4 cm in length. This is the intersection of the connection that fixes the penis to the pubic bones, as a result of which the organ extends from the pelvis outwards for several centimeters.
10 pluses
Doctors say that the operation is very popular among men and is often performed in modern clinics.
Ligamentotomy has several advantages:
- Guaranteed result.Every man undergoing surgery has an organ extension of at least 1. 5 centimeters. Unlike folk remedies (such as soda) for penis enlargement, the procedure gives a quick and visible effect.
- Minimal trauma.A small incision is made in the skin to cut the ligament. Surgeons (when choosing a normal clinic) perform manipulations very carefully so as not to touch the nerves and vessels located in the perineal area.
- Visual alignment of anatomical defects.During the operation, due to elongation, small defects become less noticeable: asymmetry or curvature of the organ. At the request of the patient, the doctor can simultaneously increase the thickness of the penis (a combination of techniques occurs).
- Lack of general anesthesia.Patients are often afraid of anesthesia or have medical contraindications for its use. Ligamentotomy is performed under local spinal anesthesia, which is well tolerated and does not cause complications.
- Improving the aesthetics of the intimate area.After the procedure, the genital area acquires a more harmonious shape due to the elongation and advancement of the penis. This allows the man to feel more confident during sex.
- Short stay in hospital.You do not need to change your work schedule or sick leave to perform the manipulation. A man after a ligamentomy for the most part feels well, leaves the hospital after 24-72 hours.
- Short rehabilitation period.Recovery after the intervention takes an average of 10-15 days. After this period, the swelling disappears, the postoperative wound heals, the discomfort disappears, the man's life takes its usual course.
- Increase the length in the non-erect state. After the operation, the penis immediately lengthens, which is noticeable even in a "hanging" position. This distinguishes ligamentotomy from external means for the penis, the effect of which is noticeable only under the condition of a permanent erection.
- Improving the quality of sex.After increasing the dignity, the man is self-confident, sexual desire increases, which has a positive effect on the stability of the erection and the pleasure of intimacy.
- Lack of prolonged sexual abstinence.The procedure is not a contraindication for sexual intercourse after wound healing. After 2 weeks, the man can have sex if it does not cause pain.

Like any surgery, penile ligamentotomy has negative aspects that are important to be aware of before you decide to enlarge your penis in this way.
- Visible mark.If an incision is made in the skin in the pubic area, a visible scar remains after the wound is closed. It all depends on the individual characteristics of the body: in some the scar will be small, while in others it grows and causes discomfort.
- Change the angle of the erection.After the procedure, the erect penis "looks" down and can also deviate to one side, which causes aesthetic discomfort and also (rarely! ) causes discomfort during sex. This is due to the peculiarities of the anatomical structure of the pelvic organs.
- Need to use an extension cord.A ligament that has undergone plastic correction can return to its original state. To prevent this, you should use the extension cord daily for 2 to 6 months.
- Infections.If the postoperative scar is not maintained properly, there is a risk of bacteria getting into the wound. This is fraught with inflammation and suppuration and under adverse conditions microorganisms can penetrate the organs of the genitourinary system, causing urethritis, orchitis, prostatitis.
- Move the member down.After dissection of the supporting connections, human dignity acquires excessive mobility, so it can "hang" a little. Some men complain that the organ is located unnaturally low relative to the pubis.
Indications and contraindications
Surgeons recommend prolonging phalloplasty in the following situations:
- small penis size (less than 10 upright); Peyronie's disease or other anatomical defects;
- the presence of complexes and erection problems due to dissatisfaction with the size of the penis;
- cavernous fibrosis;
- deformation of the organ after trauma;
- hypospadias or epispadias.
It should be remembered that ligamentotomy refers to surgical interventions, which is why a number of limitations differ during its implementation. The procedure should not be performed on people who are allergic to local anesthetics, as this is fraught with anaphylactic shock and other serious consequences.
Penis lengthening surgery is not performed in the presence of such diseases:
- reduced blood clotting;
- diabetes mellitus;
- heart failure;
- increased intracranial pressure;
- congenital or acquired heart defects;
- mental disorders.
If infectious diseases of the genitourinary system or skin rashes in the intimate area are found during ligamentotomy, the date of the operation is postponed until full recovery.
How to do it
Before the operation, the doctor discusses the expected results with the man, makes an examination and evaluates the individual features of the anatomy. Based on the data obtained, the surgeon tells the patient what maximum enlargement of the ligamentotomy can give him specifically. Before the procedure, the man must undergo a series of tests (general blood and urine tests, tests for hepatitis and HIV). Be sure to do an ECG and consult an anesthesiologist to choose a method of pain relief.
Penis enlargement surgery begins with anesthesia, followed by an incision in the pubic area or scrotum. Modern doctors prefer the second option, because the scar after it is almost invisible. The plastic surgeon then locates the supporting ligament (ligament) and cuts it, causing immediate elongation of the penis. The specialist once again examines the operating field for the absence of bleeding and damage, sutures. The manipulation takes an average of 20-30 minutes.
The first day (sometimes longer) the patient is in the hospital. During this period there is pain in the pubis and scrotum and the temperature may rise. Doctors carefully monitor the state of health, apply the necessary drugs. After 24 hours, a bandage is made and the man is released at home. The patient should visit the doctor several more times: to monitor the healing of wounds, to remove the sutures, which occurs every 5-10 days.
After scar formation and tissue integrity, you need to start wearing the extension cord. The doctor explains in detail how to use it properly so that there is no discomfort. The device is used daily from 2 to 6 hours a day. The duration of application of the penis extender is chosen individually and can be 2-6 months. At the same time, a monthly visit to a doctor is required to monitor the dynamics of the effect of therapy.
Average results for men: "BEFORE" and "AFTER"
It is important to understand that the effect of a ligamentotomy is individual. This depends on the structure of the pelvic organs and the size of the "hidden" part of the penis, as well as the regularity and duration of wearing the extension.
The end result is practically not affected by the initial parameters (initial size) of the penis, for example, the penis can be lengthened by both 1. 5 cm and 3 cm and probably even more, regardless of whether it is initially at least10 cm or 20 cm.
At a young age the elasticity of the tissues is maximum, so a patient up to 25-30 years can count (not always! ) at + 3-4, 5 cm, then the mobility of the ligaments decreases and the maximum increase is 1, 5-3 cm.
Price, average - how much does the procedure cost
The average cost of a ligamentotomy consists of the qualification of the surgeon, the equipment and the prestige of the clinic, the instruments and medicines used.
In addition, you have to pay for the purchase of an extension cord, without which the ligamentotomy does not give a lasting effect.
