Penis enlargement: expectations and reality

Among the ancient Greeks, who sculpted magnificent statues, male figures were created with small penises, demonstrating both male power and the ability to curb sexual desires.

However, if you are sure that your penis is small, comparing your measurements to those found on the Internet will definitely not help you feel better. Although you are sure to find many procedures and products (such as penis enlargement cream) that promise to enlarge your penis.

Are these promises too good to be true?

The average penis length for a man is about 10 cm. The smallest penis in the world is only 1 cm long, an erect penis of 2. 5 cm is considered a small penis.

Penis Enlargement - Expectations

Modern medicine has the ability to change the length and thickness of the human penis.

Surgeons can lengthen the penis by cutting the ligaments that attach it to the pelvis; but that only makes flaccid penises seem longer. It doesn't do much for an erect penis, other than making it more unstable and less hard. Non-surgical methods for lengthening suggest "stretching" the penis for several hours a day using rubber band devices for several months. Similar to dental braces, they slowly "modify" the penis and can add 1-2 cm in total.

To make the penis thicker, surgical implants or "grafts" are sewn to the sides of the penis, or fat, silicone, or muscle grafts are placed under the skin to increase the diameter of the penis. These are quite workable procedures that give an increase in diameter, but they can make the penis strange, soft, almost like dough and cause complications such as skin erosion or infection, requiring the removal of all implants. And when it does, the disfigurement can be irreversible and really ruin what was originally quite normal.

So how do you know which one is right for you? What is safe? What is effective?

To be honest, no way. This is due to the fact that, like all plastic surgery, penile surgery is aimed rather at satisfying the whims of the patient and does not solve the main problem. This is the reason for the paucity of published data on individual penis enlargement procedures, let alone comparisons between them.

Penis enlargement is a reality

However, a scientific article was recently published that reviewed the results of 17 studies of 21 surgical and non-surgical procedures used for penis enlargement. The results turned out to be very revealing.

1192 men with a healthy penis who underwent penis enlargement surgery were examined. The vast majority of men undergoing procedures had normal-sized penises prior to the procedure.

Surgical procedures included excision of the suspensory ligament (lengthening), fat grafting (girth) flaps (girth), and "penile disassembly". Non-surgical procedures included injections (girth), extenders (length), and vacuum devices (length)

Among non-surgical procedures, extensions definitely increased length, but only < 2 cm. Injectables increased girth, but were associated with significant complications (lumpy penis).

It is significant that the average level of satisfaction among treated men was only 20%!

If, before any procedure, patients received detailed consultations and clarified the details, including about the normal size of the penis, then in most cases they refused penis enlargement operations.

conclusions

When it comes to penis enlargement, be careful! Realistically evaluate what you already have and what you are going to for the sake of not very reasonable fantasies.

Please note that the majority of men (80%! ), who have undergone such procedures, are ultimately not satisfied with the results. Get complete information on what can go wrong and how often it happens.

And remember that in the vast majority of cases, attitudes and skills are much more important than size, and women love you not at all for this.
