Penis Enlargement - Fact or Fiction?Penis enlargement - myth or reality?Well, if you look on the internet, you might imagine that enlarging your penis is the easiest thing in the world - loads of adverts for courses of enlargement exercises ("Guaranteed to work or your money back!"), emails by the score for penis enlargement pills ("Just $100 for a four week course - gain 2 inches in a week!"), and gadgets that resemble horrors from the medieval torture chamber to hang on the end of your penis to stretch it to ever greater length (and presumably extend your confidence with it). But what is the reality? Is it actually possible to improve on what nature gave you? Can you really extend your "old persuader"? Ways you might try to get bigger! 1 Penis enlargement pillsFirst off, let's deal with the penis enlargement pills. The problem here is that it's always been easy to sell stuff where there's a strong demand for it, whether or not it actually works. From the days of the snake oil salesmen to the days of the Internet websites offering penis enlargement pills, not much has changed: find a willing audience who want to believe that anything is possible, and you'll sell your product. And we live in a world where the quick fix is the attractive option: just imagine - taking a pill to enlarge your penis! Wow! No wonder they sell. Sadly, however, they don't work....but you probably knew that anyway. Dr David Ralph, a consultant urologist at the Lister Hospital, London, said in a review of penis enlargement techniques featured in Men's Health magazine, "If there really was a pill that could enlarge your penis, don't you think one of the major manufactures would be selling it?" Some herbal ingredients, like yohimbe, may help you stay firmer longer, but there is no way a course of pills will make your willy bigger." Even if they claim to increase blood flow to the penis, this will not in itself result in an increase in size - you would need to have the tissues expand for the penis to get bigger, and the pills do not make this happen. OK, guys, if you try the pills, you try them at your own risk! 2 Penis enlargement programs You've seen this kind of thing many times, I'm sure.
Whatever the claims for penis enlargement programs made by their owners, they are all based on the same idea. And it's a simple one - you basically take your semi-erect penis and force blood into the erectile chambers by running your thumb and fingers down the length of the penis from base to tip. This supposedly forces the blood into the chambers and causes them to expand, rather in the way that skin will stretch when it is put under a constant gentle load. It's the same principle that lies behind foreskin restoration: men without a foreskin can get it back if they persevere with a stretching routine every day for several months. H ere are the members of one bulletin board discussing their dilemmas. As you can see, opinions vary as to the effectiveness of this process. If you don't know what PC muscles or PC exercises are, all will become clear later.The original question was: Jelqing (the method of enlargement in question): Does it work?
OK - happy? No, it doesn't help, does it? Some guys swear by it, some say it doesn't work, and some say they lost their erections. The only way is to try it out, I guess, and be careful if you do. I've looked through all the programs for you and the one that is undoubtedly the best is shown below. And I want you to know I mean that. However, they do have a money back guarantee, which enables you to get your money back without fuss if you think it's all B***S***. Sounds good to me. OK, here's the link, in their words:
This program
is GUARANTEED to
make your penis bigger.
3 Mechanical stretchers, weights and other instruments of extension Now, why would anyone want to lock their most valuable asset in a metal cage, and then hang weights from the end of it? Or put it in a metal frame and then expand the side pieces with an irresistible metal screw device that stretches the length of your cock whether it wants to stretch or not? In the name of a bigger penis? This is serious stuff. Be careful! The fact that it appears here is not a recommendation or an endorsement. I can't take any responsibility for permanent penis damage! Perhaps the most well known of these mechanical devices is the "Jes-Extender". Here's what their website has to say about the product: The productThe Jes-Extender has a specially designed ring of plastic material that is placed around the base of the penis. A plastic and silicone holder is fastened around the penis head and between the ring and the holder, two dynamic metal bars are attached. By using these adjustable bars to apply a variable tension between 600 and 1.500 gram you can stretch the penis. The tension is adjusted by yourself. The Jes-Extender fits everybody, no matter your initial penis size. Over a period of time this constant stretch permanently increases the size of the penis.
The Jes-expander website. Click here. I don't know if the Jes-expander works, but it would certainly be an interesting talking point down the pub with your mates. What about weights and such like? I just have this sense that the search for a larger penis can sometimes go too far. If you want to hang weights on your penis, maybe you should consider a career in a circus rather like Jim Rose's late lamented show, which toured around the world in recent years with a collection of, to put it kindly, oddball performers, including Mr. Lifto. Here's a report of the relevant part of the show: Jim introduced the amazing Mr. Lifto. This guy came on stage, with carabineers hanging from his ears, and laser-implanted quills moving on his forehead, looking like an escapee from some bizarre sci-fi movie. He started by lighting about 100 firecrackers on his bare stomach, but stopped after about 40 because the explosions were blowing out the lit fuses of the other firecrackers. After this Mr. Lifto managed to lift a liberty bell (like a bell with a handle, which you can pick up and ring), using only his genitals, (which apparently he had injured in Europe performing this feat), and then proceeded to ring the bell, which was absolutely amazing. He then lifted a car battery from his tongue (with the live current passing through it), an iron from each earlobe (which were stretched almost 10cm by this awesome trick), and a cement block from his nipples - all at the same time! In an interview, Jim Rose had the following to say about Mr. Lifto: O: What else? Are Enigma and Mr. Lifto still with the circus?JR: Oh, yeah. Mr. Lifto's actually changed his act now. He's lifting a 17-pound car battery - while receiving an electrical shock - with his tongue. He also does the concrete block with the nipples and the irons with the ears, and he lifts 'em all at the same time, all three. Of course, he still does his famous, ah, lift, with the part of him that's most a mister. O: That thing must be getting pretty stretched-out by now. JR: Oh, yeah. That thing has gotten huge! It's got an elbow! It gets its own lunch money! He's looking for a significant other who can house, um, his manhood. He may have to go to a Realtor. 4 Pumping Ah yes, the old favorite - pumping. The idea is that you put your old man in a Perspex cylinder and pump the air out. The resulting vacuum causes blood to flow more enthusiastically into the penis, making it swell and enlarge. Over a period of time, the enlargement becomes permanent and the tissues expand. At least, that's the theory. In practice, it does indeed make your penis swell up: the only catch is that when you pull your penis out of the tube, the swelling rapidly goes down. The important question, though, is whether or not it makes your subsequent erections any bigger? Will she (or he) swoon with amazement when she (or he) sees your huge todger? The best answer seems to be - yes, but only during the period while you are regularly pumping. So it's not a permanent increase in that sense, but it can be helpful in making your cock look bigger on a temporary basis. In fact pumping has actually been used as a treatment for men who cannot get an erection for years, especially for men with long term diabetes, which affects erectile ability. But for these men, who want to keep the erection for intercourse, the other prescribed part of the treatment is to slip a cock ring on as soon as they pull their penis out of the cylinder. This keeps the blood in their penis and presumably allows sexual penetration before their penis sinks back to a soft, flaccid tool. Warning: Cock rings can be helpful in keeping an erection as big as possible - but they can also cut off the flow of blood to your penis and thereby cause your cock to die if they are left on for too long. What do you do if you want to pump safely? I quote from Men's Health magazine's survey of penis enlargement techniques (November 2002). These are the words of Dr Rodney Barron, director of the Barron centers for men in NY and California: "I've seen some pretty ugly results from men who've used pumps frequently over a long period of time. You're safe using pumps once in a while for short periods. But as soon as you notice the first sign of pain or bruising, it's time to put the pump away." And Dr Alex del Roasario says: "Vacuum pumping will in fact increase the apparent size of the penis but it does this artificially by causing a negative air pressure surrounding the penis, thus drawing more blood into the penile shaft. Intermittent use of vacuum pumps poses no significant problems except for minor trauma to the skin of the penis. However, vacuum pumps may actually results in serious damage to the penis if abused. They can cause the penis to swell to such a diameter that tears can develop in the tough fibrous connective tissue layer called the tunica albuginea. This fibrous layer surrounds the corpora, the spongy cavities in the penis that fill with blood to cause an erection. A tear in this layer results in a bloated floppy penis that bulges irregularly along the length of shaft due to blood leaking out of the corpora. This leaked blood can also clot under the skin, this resulting in a lumpy appearance." Ouch! So, the first thing you need is a pump that regulates the pressure so you don't damage your penis. Or end up with a giant mass of purple bruises if you fall asleep while you're using it. Though you may find many other ways of dealing with this issue, such as computer controlled pumps, a pretty good method of safe pumping is the Venus 2000 masturbation machine for men. Though it's billed as a masturbation machine - and it certainly works (boy, does it ever!) in that way - it can also be used for safe pumping. Indeed, this is one of the uses that the makers describe for it: PUMP: A recreational vacuum device for use with the Venus 2000 system. By pulling blood in, this attachment can create a fully engorged penis from a flaccid state or enhance an existing erection. With regular use, it can benefit penile health. (Use it or lose it). If you go to their website, you'll find loads of blurb about the machine. Though it's billed primarily as a masturbation machine, it's an extremely effective and safe enlargement pump too. It's a bit pricey, but then you get what you pay for. Quality costs money....here's the link to the maker's web page. When you get there, click on the VENUS 2000 LINK.

5 The surgeon's knife and cosmetic surgery (links at bottom of page) What about the surgeon's scalpel? Surely that offers a means to enlarge the penis? Well, penis enlargement surgery has a somewhat dubious history, having been marked out by some unhappy incidents with incompetent surgeons in its early days. But does it work now? The traditional method of gaining length is to cut the ligament that attaches the penis to the body, an operation that allows the penis to drop forward and down. This increases the flaccid length somewhat, but it does not actually increase the erect length very much. Sexologist Randy Klein conducted a very detailed study of penis enlargement surgery in which he compared the expectations of men who had this operation with the actual results achieved, and he discovered that they were almost all disappointed with what had been achieved - they expected a post-op erect penis length of between seven and nine inches - but the average was in fact under six inches (most of them started off with erect penises of about five inches in length). What's more, to prevent shrinkage as the tissues heal, it's essential to use a stretching device which preserves the increase in length by stretching the ligament and preventing the tissues healing shorter than they were before the operation. To increase girth, the traditional technique was to take fatty tissue from the patient's own body, and insert it into his penis. This could be done with either fat cells or a graft made up of fatty tissue and skin from the buttock crease - in either case, the results tended to reduce over time as the fatty tissue was reabsorbed by the patient's own body. Does this all mean that penis enlargement surgery is useless? Well.....that is a hard question to answer. There are some specialists on the internet who claim high success rates. Dr Douglas Whitehead, for example, does not use either of the two methods mentioned above to increase girth. Instead, he employs a newer technique using grafts of specially treated tissue extracted from tissue donors, and surgically placed around the patient's penis to increase length and girth. This is called the allograft dermal matrix technique. He also cuts the penile ligaments in a way that leaves much less scarring, though he still advises the use of a stretching device to maintain the gains in penis length after the operation. But the $64,000 question is: What is the average increase in length and girth? To quote from his website: "Average expected length gain in the flaccid state is 1 inch. Well motivated patients may gain up to 2 inches. After allograft dermal matrix graft widening, the penis does not shrink to its original small flaccid length, but stays slightly longer. Usually there is a slightly smaller penile length gain in the erect state than in the flaccid state." He goes on to say: "We have noticed a permanent increase in penile girth (circumference) in the flaccid state with our...allograft dermal matrix graft technique. While a 40 to 50% gain in girth (flaccid state) may be achieved, most men get an increase of about 30%. An approximate 10 to 15% gain in girth is obtained in the erect state." Now, the only way a man can assess whether the risks are right for him is to weigh up the evidence and make a decision. But with some of the newer surgical penis enlargement techniques these risks have not yet been defined, as Dr Whitehead admits on his website. Another problem is that if you look at websites by penis enlargement surgeons, you may find contradictory or conflicting information - and it's all presented with great authority, which makes it well-night impossible for the layman to find out what the facts really are. Dr Stephen Giunta, another American surgeon, uses one of the two traditional methods of increasing girth mentioned above, which were, as you might recall, free fat injection or dermal grafts of fat and skin, in both cases taken from the patient's own body. Dr Giunta's method of choice is the free fat injection technique, of which he says: "Despite what you may have heard or read about Free Fat Transfer (FFT) - it doesn't work, it disappears, it leaves cysts or nodules, or 'lumpy-looking,' distorted penises - this simply isn't true anymore if FFT is done correctly." Dr Giunta uses free fat transfer rather than dermal fat grafts for reasons he sets out in some detail as follows: "Let me share a few words about Dermal Fat Grafts (DFG) and AlloDerm. I have seen and repaired many cases where the DFG have twisted, shortened, become infected and have ultimately caused permanent loss in penile length. Unsightly large painful donor site scars have also occurred. Many times it is very difficult to control the size of the thickening with these DFG and, as a rule, you only get one chance at a good result. AlloDerm, recently used by a few surgeons, is a thin sheet of cadaver (a dead person's) preserved and treated skin. The skin is rolled in several layers around the penile shaft for thickening. This procedure has only been used for a couple of years and, to me, seems very cumbersome and expensive. While I have seen a few complications thus far, the final word in AlloDerm is still quite a distance away." By contrast, Dr Gary Rheinschild uses the dermal fat graft technique. He claims that the special skills he uses in shaping and placing these strips, as well as unique post-op care, result in much greater patient satisfaction: "The patient can expect an increase in girth of up to 2 inches. By performing a dermal graft as a second procedure, Dr. Rheinschild has found that there is only a minimal loss in girth [post operatively]. Patients who have their enhancement surgery performed in this manner sustain an aesthetic appearing penis without any significant scarring. This procedure has proven to be far superior to using fat injections, in which the majority of the fat is often reabsorbed and results in distorted and uneven areas with nodules scattered throughout the penis." And the last word must go to Dr Gary Alter: "Dermal-fat graft augmentation has complications of penis shortening, penile curvature, and asymmetry if segments of the graft do not completely survive. Other complications common to all operations can occur such as infection, bleeding, and wound problems. However, deforming complications are uncommon if surgery is performed by a skilled, experienced surgeon. However, at the present time, I am not performing any girth enhancement procedures. The dermal fat graft procedure works very well most of the time and tends to stay permanently; however long term follow-up is unavailable and some problems can occur. Some physicians are using Alloderm (cadaver skin) instead of dermal fat grafts to augment the penis. The Alloderm has the advantage of avoiding the donor scar from the dermal fat graft. Alloderm is promising, but it is too soon to know if it will permanently last. I am waiting for longer follow-up on Alloderm prior to performing the operation." So - who do you believe? Well, that, unfortunately, is a decision that only the prospective patient can make for himself. All of these websites are listed below in the references. All I can say is that I would never let anyone near my penis with a scalpel for the purposes of increasing its size: I'd rather learn to be happy with what I've got. |
