Penis lengthening and thickening surgeries are permanent surgeries performed taking into account the physical and psychogenic needs of the person.
What is Penis Extension Surgery? How is it done?
The purpose of penis lengthening surgery is to remove the part of the penis root hidden under the skin using some surgical techniques. Lengthening is achieved by cutting the ligaments on both sides extending from the root of the penis towards the pubic bone (pelvis). This procedure can be performed under the belly button or by completely peeling off the foreskin. There are surgeries that increase the length of the skin under the penis to relieve tension. In all these surgeries, the penis can be lengthened by around 2-2.5 cm at most. It is very important that the patient keeps his expectations to this extent and that the need for surgery is deemed appropriate by the surgeon.
What is Penis Thickening Surgery? How is it done?
In cases where the penis is very thin, thickening surgery can be performed if there is a suitable condition called surgical indication. There are basically two methods used in penis enlargement surgeries:
Fat Injection:
The fat tissue taken from the belly area and pubic area is injected into the penis skin and penis with the help of a thin cannula. It is injected symmetrically between the corpuscles. This method is the more preferred and easily performed surgical procedure. There may be a risk of infection or bleeding after the procedure. The injected fat tissue may melt over time and a decrease in thickness may occur. It is a daily operation. The patient is discharged on the same day with a penis bandage.
Skin Grafts:
Skin and subcutaneous tissue taken from the abdominal area or often around the hips are placed around the penis to increase thickness. is provided. It is a method that requires longer operating time and has a slightly higher complication rate. There is a risk of infection and shrinkage of the graft placed around the penis. Tissue loss is less common compared to fat injection. This procedure is performed on a daily basis and the patient can be discharged home on the same day.
PENILE CURVATURE
Congenital penile curvature is called "congenital penile curvature". It is named ''. Move your penis forward or backward Having a correct curve is a disorder that requires surgical correction.
Is there a form of penis curvature that occurs later?
It occurs later. In the disease called Peyronie's disease, there may be pain as well as curvature. It is typically seen between the ages of 40-60. Peyronie's disease manifests itself with deformity and pain in the penis due to hardening and thickening in the layer of the penis called tunica albuginea. Peyronie's disease occurs as a result of tearing, bleeding and related processes in this layer of the penis due to coercive sex or impact.
Causes include penile trauma, chronic coercive movements, penile injection treatments used for erection treatment, vacuum device. usage, presence of connective tissue diseases.
Plaque size and localization can be evaluated with plain films as an imaging method. Plaque size and location can be measured with penile Doppler ultrasound. In Peyronie's disease, drug treatments are applied starting from the onset of the disease. After the 12th month, when the disease progression stops, surgical procedure can be performed if necessary.
If the patient cannot have sexual intercourse with the existing curvature, surgical procedures are applied to correct the curvature.
Every Penile Curvature. Does it need to be corrected surgically?
Those with congenital penile curvature usually consult a doctor in their 20s. When patients first come, they apply to the doctor with complaints that they have difficulty in intercourse, that they cannot have intercourse in some positions, and that they or their partners experience pain during intercourse. Some of the patients apply without having ever had sexual intercourse because the curvature prevents intercourse or because they are uncomfortable with the curvature.
The majority of patients have a downward curvature, while a smaller number have a sideways or upward curvature. The level of curvature can range from very mild to very severe. Surgery is required for those with a curvature degree of 30 degrees and above, because there is a possibility of the penis straining and breaking during intercourse at 30 degrees and above.
Penile curvature is its curvature during erection. It can be evaluated by taking a photograph. In some patients, the degree of curvature can be determined by injecting the penis to create an artificial erection.
How is Penile Curvature Treated?
The treatment for congenital penile curvature is surgery. Curvature can be corrected by surgical intervention. There is no medical treatment alternative to surgery. This disorder may cause not only sexual intercourse problems but also psychological problems.
How long does the recovery process take?
The first few days after the surgery, mild pain and discomfort may occur. There may be a decrease in sensation. The patient is banned from sexual intercourse for 4 weeks. It is recommended not to do heavy work or exercise. At the end of a month, he returns to his normal activity and can have sexual intercourse.
