Penis enlargement surgery has evolved significantly over the past decade, and one of the most frequently requested options is the suspensory ligament release — widely known as the ligament cut.
At Moorgate Andrology, our specialist urologists perform this procedure for men who want a permanent increase in visible length and a more confident appearance.
What Does the Suspensory Ligament Do?
The suspensory ligament acts like a supporting “bridge” between the pubic bone and the penis. A portion of every man’s internal shaft sits inside the body. The ligament holds it in place.
When released, this internal portion drops forward and becomes externally visible, giving the penis a longer appearance — especially when flaccid.
How the Surgery Is Performed
The operation is straightforward for an experienced surgeon:
What Kind of Gains Can You Expect?
Most men see between 2.5 and 5 cm increase in flaccid length.
Erect gains vary depending on individual anatomy.
Combining the Ligament Cut with Fillers
Many patients combine the ligament cut with hyaluronic acid girth fillers, creating a balanced enhancement in both length and thickness. It is one of the most popular treatment combinations at Moorgate.
Recovery and Aftercare
Aftercare is a crucial part of achieving and maintaining good results. We provide each patient with a personalised plan, which may include stretching, warm compress techniques, and wound care instructions.
Healing is usually straightforward, with most men back to light work within a few days.
