Penis enlargement
Ligamentotomy (penis enlargement) is a surgical operation in which the ligament that holds the genital organ in the perineum is cut, that is, the hidden part of the penis (the part of the penis inside the body) is reduced and the free part is enlarged. . Before the operation, it is necessary to pass a series of tests (urine and blood tests, hepatitis, HIV, syphilis, ECG tests) and consult an anesthesiologist (the operation lasts about an hour, as it is performed under general anesthesia. ). After the operation, it is necessary to wear an extender for 2-3 months (a special device that does not allow to consolidate the result of the operation, but also prevents the formation of adhesions and promotes the physiological growth of membranes and tissues). penis). It is also necessary to carefully follow the rules of personal hygiene and observe certain precautions (restricting physical activity, refraining from sexual intercourse, etc. ).
Penis thickening
Lipofilling (penis thickening) is the injection of fat tissue to increase the diameter of the penis and give it the proper shape. Fat tissues removed from excess deposition areas (abdomen, hips, etc. ) by liposuction must belong directly to the patient. This helps to prevent allergic reactions observed when external implants are applied. Adipose tissue is injected into the micro-punctures on the penis, then a surgical patch is applied, and a bandage is put on it. The main requirement in the postoperative period is to refrain from sexual intercourse. The disadvantage of this method is that the transplanted adipose tissue tends to dissolve due to the lack of blood vessels that feed it. As a result, the tissue can dissolve unevenly, which leads to deformation of the penis.
