One of the most misunderstood aspects of penis enlargement surgery is the difference between flaccid and erect length.
Ligament release surgery can increase the visible flaccid length by allowing the penis to sit further outside the body.
Typical increase: 1–2 inches
Most noticeable when standing
Requires proper post-operative care to maintain results
Erect length increase is usually minimal. Surgery does not lengthen erectile tissue; instead, it alters how much of the penis is externally visible.
This distinction is important for setting realistic expectations.
Girth enhancement using fat transfer is often combined with ligament release surgery. Increasing girth can significantly improve perceived size, both flaccid and erect.
Benefits include:
A fuller, more proportionate appearance
Improved confidence during intimacy
Long-lasting results using your own tissue
Many men who undergo penis enlargement surgery report that the most significant improvement is psychological rather than purely physical.
Common benefits include:
Increased self-confidence
Reduced anxiety in intimate situations
Improved body image over time
These outcomes are often overlooked but play a major role in patient satisfaction.
Men who achieve the best outcomes typically:
Have realistic expectations
Understand the recovery process
Follow post-operative instructions carefully
Seek treatment for personal confidence rather than external pressure
