For many men, concerns about the size and appearance of their penis can significantly impact their confidence and self-esteem, particularly in intimate situations. In response to these concerns, medical advancements have led to various procedures aimed at addressing these aesthetic worries. In his latest online article, Dr Sherif El Wakil gives us his insights into penis elongation through ligament release.

Understanding the procedure

Penis elongation through ligament release is a surgical procedure designed to increase the visible length of the penis. The penis is composed of both a visible external part and an internal part that is concealed within the body. The base of the penis is connected to the pubic bone by a suspensory ligament, which restricts its movement and provides a particular angle to the penile base area. During the procedure, a surgeon makes an incision in the pubic area, often in an upside-down V-shape, to access the suspensory ligament. By cutting and releasing this ligament, the internal part of the penis can move forward and outside of the pubic area, effectively extending the visible portion of the penis. Additionally, this release alters the angle of the penile base, further stretching the penis and increasing its proportion outside the body.

 

Suitability and considerations

Men who are dissatisfied with the length of their flaccid penis, especially when it measures less than 8 cm, may consider penis elongation through ligament release. Common concerns about penis size and appearance can lead to feelings of inadequacy, affecting both self-confidence and intimate relationships. It's essential to note that this procedure primarily addresses the flaccid state of the penis. While it can enhance the visual length, it does not affect the size of the erect penis. However, many men find that even a modest increase in flaccid length can have a significant impact on their self-image and confidence.

 

Procedure details and recovery

The procedure is often performed under general anaesthesia to ensure the patient's comfort. Depending on whether additional penis enhancement procedures are performed concurrently, such as penis enlargement with fat grafting, the surgery can take up to two hours. Following the procedure, patients can expect a short recovery period. While some tenderness and discomfort may occur initially, most patients experience rapid recovery times. Typically, patients require up to a week of downtime, during which they should avoid strenuous activities. Full recovery may take a few weeks, during which patients can gradually return to their normal routines.

 

Expected results and considerations

The primary goal of penis elongation through ligament release is to enhance the appearance of the flaccid penis. On average, the procedure can add 1 to 2 cm to the visible length of the penis, which may seem modest but can make a significant difference in overall appearance and confidence. It's essential for individuals considering this procedure to have realistic expectations and understand its limitations. While it can improve the visual length of the flaccid penis, it does not affect its size when erect. Additionally, like any surgical procedure, there are potential risks and complications to consider, which should be discussed thoroughly with a qualified healthcare provider.
