Today our work is dedicated to plastic surgery of the penis. Why do men pay so much attention to their reproductive organ? This is due to the fact that an important role in the life of a man and a woman goes to the harmony of sexual relations. Why do men go to the plastic surgeon?
Phalloplasty helps to solve such problems:
- change appearance;
- increase or decrease in size;
- correction of functional disorders.
This operation is carried out for several purposes:
- cosmetic;
- medical.
The majority of men's visits to a plastic surgeon are related to congenital defects of the penis. A common reason is: the need for plastic surgery of the short frenulum of the penis, foreskin, correction of defects formed as a result of trauma, enlargement of the penis. In the article, we will consider in detail the features of the operation.
Phalloplasty
It is important to note that the correction operationThe male reproductive organ is very complex. Phalloplasty is usually divided into two main categories:
- full;
- partial.
In the first case, the plastic surgeon completely recreates the new genital organ, in the second he corrects the existing defects (for example, with plastic surgery of the penis frenulum, prices for which start at four thousand rubles, correction of curvature, lengthening, thickening, and so on).
During the operation, skin autografts can be used, which are taken from different parts of the patient's body. In penile plastic surgery, the most difficult procedure is the creation of the urethra.
Modern medicine uses new microsurgical methods, which allows us to solve even very complex problems as successfully as possible. Numerous positive patient reviews testify to this.
Phalloplasty is also usually divided into the following categories:
- correction;
- prosthetics;
- plastic head;
- straightening.

- sexopathologist;
- urologist.
Next, you can go to a plastic surgeon. Be sure to contact a specialist before choosing a specialistattention to qualifications, experience and customer reviews about him.
You must pass a series of tests:
- general urinalysis;
- complete blood count;
- syphilis test;
- testing for HIV and other infections;

If there are no contraindications, then you can visit an anesthesiologist. Only after that it is necessary to come for a second consultation with the surgeon, where a number of issues will be resolved:

As for the time for rehabilitation, it should be understood that the procedures have varying degrees of severity. For example, rehabilitation after the dissection of the frenulum will take less time than after surgery to increase the penis. It is worth paying attention to the fact that phalloplasty is performed only on an empty stomach.
Types of phalloplasty
As mentioned earlier, phalloplasty is divided into two groups:
- aesthetic;
- prosthetics.
The following types are also distinguished:
- radial flap phalloplasty;
- pubic plastic surgery;
- circumcision.
In the first case, the surgeon uses skin taken from the patient's forearm for correction. Why was this site chosen? The skin of the forearm is more delicate and thin. This technique is often used to completely restore the penis. Patient reviews are positive, they highlight the following advantages of this method:
- aesthetically pleasing;
- resolving two problems at once (restoration of the penis and urethra);
- the presence of erogenous sensitivity (which affects social and sexual rehabilitation).
Pubic plasty is rarely used, since it is almost impossible to achieve urination while standing when using this method. For this operation, the skin is taken from the patient's lower abdomen.
The last look presented to you in this article is based on the circumcision of the foreskin. This gives the penis an aesthetic appearance and relieves the inflammatory process on the head.
Aesthetic plastic surgery
Aesthetic plastic surgery is done for the following reasons:
- plasty of the hidden penis;
- changing length;
- volume change;
- elimination of small defects after injuries;
- curvature correction.
Since the surgeon pursues different goals during the operation, the methods used are also different. Very often, men turn to a plastic surgeon because of a short bridle. What makes it uncomfortable? shortthe frenulum often causes pain during sex or masturbation. In addition, she may be injured. Rehabilitation after plastic surgery of the frenulum of the penis is short, but the operation in this case is necessary. As a rule, the problem is detected even in adolescence during the first sexual experiences. Do not be ashamed of this defect, feel free to contact a plastic surgeon for help. Moreover, the procedure is not expensive (from six thousand rubles).
Prosthetics
Prosthetics is a more complex operation with which you can recreate the entire or partial penis. This procedure is carried out in several stages.
On the first, tissue is taken for the future phallus. Where the tissue flap comes from has been described in detail above. The second stage of penile prosthetics is the formation of the future penis from the existing flap of skin tissue. The third stage consists in attaching the prepared organ to the periosteum. Now it is also necessary to form vascular anastomoses that provide nutrition to the tissue. At the fourth stage, organ prosthetics are performed.
After the manipulations, complete healing of tissues is necessary, six months is enough for this. If the operation was successful, then the patient needs ten days of therapy in the hospital. Only six months after prosthetics, a man, at his discretion, can undergo a second plastic surgery. Why is it needed:
- formation of the head of the penis;
- restoration of stiffness.
Cost and complications
How much does penile plastic surgery cost? The price depends on the reason for the client's request. In the capital of our country, the minimum price of this procedure is three thousand rubles, and the maximum is five hundred thousand. Before plastic surgery, the doctor is obliged to familiarize you with the list of possible complications. These include:
