Penile Enlargement Surgery: Is It Really Worth It?

Surgical penile enlargement would seem to be the modern answer for men who want a longer, thicker penis. After all, why use exercises that go back hundreds of years if a simple surgery will have the same result?

Elective plastic surgery was once reserved for the mega_rich. Nowadays, many people have had a nip here and a tuck there. Plastic surgery is routine and even affordable, so why not apply it to penile enlargement?

Surgical penile enlargement involves two techniques. One technique involves the use of liposuction to remove fat cells from your thighs or your abdomen. The dead fat cells are then purified and injected along the shaft of your penis.

The result is all too often a series of bumps and valleys. Your partner will find it not only ugly, but uncomfortable. Perhaps your partner will calm down upon learning it will only last a year or less until your body reabsorbs those fat cells.

The second technique involves cutting the ligament that connects your penis to your torso. About half your penis is inside your body. Cutting the ligament lets a bit of that inner portion be visible.

Cutting the ligament also makes your penis more prone to injury. Many men have this surgery only to find that their penis now points down even when they have a full erection.

With either surgery there are possible complications, such as damage to nerves and blood vessels, which can cause impotence. Even without an infection, recovery from penile enlargement surgery is long and painful. The results are either temporary or miniscule.

And the cost—from four to ten thousand dollars—is not peanuts either. Perhaps in the case of penile enlargement methods, the tried and true, safe and sure, old_fashioned exercise method is best.
