Please keep in mind that most patients have not been satisfied with the results of the penis enhancement surgery, mainly because of the side effects of this procedure.
Penis Girth Surgery
Penis girth augmentation is achieved through surgery by injecting various substances (like silicone or synthetic polymers) into the penis and scrotum. This augmentation method is a lot more efficient than the procedure to increase the length of the penis.
Down sides of penis girth augmentation
The irreversible part of the procedure makes it a tough decision to take, but if really necessary many men will go for it. It wouldn't be so bad after all if most of the procedures wouldn't end up with loss of sensation in the penis. There's nothing worse than to have sex and not feel much - you might experience an increase in self esteem because sex lasts longer, but at some point you'll want to have a good time as well, not just your partner.
Scarring and deformation is another down side of penis enlargement surgery that will make some men make a round trip to the doctor's office, without making another appointment. Sure, you'll have a thicker penis, but lumpy, crooked, deformed and you'll soon be ashamed by the looks of it.
Those substances might migrate and settle to a specific point on the penis. Keep in mind that the silicone is injected into the penis and there is nothing holding it into place, uniformly distributed throughout the whole surface of the penis. Therefore, you might end up with a huge ring of silicone around the base of the penis, which might also prevent blood from flowing into the penis, getting the inability to achieve full or partial erection.
Penis Length Surgery
The satisfaction rate in patients that go for this procedure is less than 30%. The basic idea of the procedure is to take advantage of the penis length that it is not used. Almost half to size of the functional length of the penis is inside the male body, specifically attached to the surface of the pubic bone, under it. The procedure involves releasing the ligament that attaches the penis to the bone and then follow a stretching treatment to insure that the reattachment of the penis to the pubic bone will not result in the shortage of the penis length - the reverse effect of what you went through the trouble in the first place.
The usual enlargement results are of 2-3 cm, which is almost 1 inch. The risks involved in this procedure are to get to opposite effect through the healing period when stretching must be done. Also, achieving an erection may be harder or erection may not occur at all due to damage to the ligament that was cut. This is not a routine or a safe procedure due to so many risks involved, but many men go with it because they need to do something about their condition.
Penis length surgery works best on patients with Peyronie's disease (erectile dysfunction) by implanting penile prosthesis. The happy cases are obese patients where the penis can be drawn more to the outside of the body, than in other cases.
