Determining Your Need For Male Enhancement Surgery By Kelly Purden At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

While it is not talked about in the open, there are a huge number of men who are concerned about the size of the sexual organs. To them, having a large penis is the ultimate in masculinity. While a majority of women are claiming that size doesn't really matter, behind closed doors they confirm that a larger penis does have it's pluses. On the whole, men still insist that bigger is always better.

This situation has given rise to the massive popularity of male enhancement surgery among members of the male population that feel they're not sized adequately enough. If you are contemplating undergoing male enhancement surgery, you should consider that it is an invasive procedure which will require a thorough check up to determine your age, qualifying health factors, and include the recommendation of a medical surgeon.

There are many types of male enhancement surgery. Penis enlargement surgery involves taking a portion of fat or excess flesh from other portions of the body such as the buttocks or abdomen and injecting it into the shaft of the penis. In some instances, surgeons utilize cadaver tissue as an add-on to penis girth.

Yet another technique that surgeons use is to remove some blood vessels (bugineal surgery) from other parts of the body in order to graft them into the penis shaft (bilateral saphenous grafts). This enables an increase in blood flow during arousal, which in turn results in an improvement in penis width during an erection. To increase the penis length, a surgeon may slice the connecting skin between the suspensory ligament which connects the penis to the pubic bone. This area of skin is then moved to the shaft of the penis, allowing the suspensory ligament to stabilise the organ, giving it an additional lift.

The other type of male enhancement surgery, penile implantation, involves inserting two implants into the penis. These implants which are placed in the left and right erectile chambers enable the penis to be firm enough for penetration. Because they are hidden within the penis shaft, these implants do not cause any physical deformation on the surface of the organ and have been considered by most patients who have undergone the procedure as entirely functional and effective.

There are different kinds of implants that are used in penile implantation surgery. A majority involve flexible rods that can be manipulated to simulate an erection. Some implants are inflatable in nature and contain fluid to produce erections which are more natural than the ones flexible rods can achieve.

The methods to enhance and enlarge the male penis may be in place, but according to the Academy of Phalloplasty Surgeons (AAPS), they are still in the experimental stage. The criteria to qualify for male enhancement surgery include having a penis size of less than 4 inches in length and 3 ½ inches in width that may adversely affect a man's reproductive capacity, handicapped males with very small penises, and men who are psychologically and aesthetically compelled to undergo this type of surgery.

The risks involved in male enhancement surgery are great, and so is the cost which average between $3,000 to $10,000. Some men have experienced infection, formation of scar tissue, lumps, pain and swelling. If you are contemplating getting some work done, you will have to ask yourself: "is this procedure right for you?"
