Penis Enlargement Surgery - Think Hard Before Taking the Risk

Men have gone to great lengths (pun intended) searching for ways to increase the size of their penises. While techniques vary from wearing penile weights, using vacuum devices and undergoing penile lengthening surgery, the goal is always the same - to have a larger penis.Like breast implants, penile lengthening surgery is cosmetic surgery that promises to make your penis larger; however, it has never been endorsed or approved by the American Urological Association.

Did you know?  Penile enlargement surgery involves four procedures, none of which actually elongate the penis.  After surgery, many men are left with lumpy-bumpy, desensitized and/or scarred genitals.  Many of the surgeons who performed a high volume of penile enlargement surgeries face large numbers of malpractice lawsuits.

What the promotional information and advertisements for penile lengthening surgery won't tell you is that the numerous risks of this procedure by far outweigh the minimal benefits.

Penile lengthening surgery was initially developed and utilized for people with congenital abnormalities, including microphallus or bladder exstrophy. The surgery was not originally intended for widespread use for cosmetic enhancement. Unfortunately, a whole industry of penile plastic surgery has emerged, targeting the countless men who are unsatisfied with their penis size. But there have been several problems.

Many physicians who open penile enhancement centers and advertise their services in magazines and newspapers get flooded with men searching for a larger phallus. Of the thousands of men who've been operated on, many have complained of disfiguring results. Consequently, as often as these centers have opened, they've closed. Many surgeons have lost their licenses and/or are no longer practicing medicine.
