Once men make the choice to deal with their issues about penis size, many assume that all enlargement options are essentially the same. While most penis enlargers do share some fundamental designs in common, that doesn’t mean your choices are limited or that one enlargement device is the same as another. Enlargement options range from those which offer immediate but temporary gains as well as devices and medical options for long term results. No matter what you choose, enlargement methods can be pretty pricey and in most cases, they require a hefty investment of time as well. This is why it’s so important to understand your options.
Short-Term Solutions: Vacuum Pumps and Cock Rings
Penis enlargers which focus on gains in girth as opposed to length are primarily focused on vacuum pumps and cock rings. Each of these devices offers an easy and relatively inexpensive way for men to increase the girth of their penis at any time, without having to invest a lot of time or energy in order to get the results. The vacuum pump was actually the first commercially available penile enlargement device, marketed in the early 1900s by Otto Ledever. His decision to patent and market the vacuum pump ushered in a new age for men who wanted to improve their sexual performance. Today, nearly 100 years later, the vacuum pump remains the most common and most popular enlargement device.
Cock rings are also incredibly popular and have been used in one variation or another for centuries. Essentially they greatly restrict blood flow to the penis, acting as a sexual tourniquet, trapping the blood and engorging the penis fully. Cock rings are also an effective treatment options when dealing with premature ejaculation or for men who have a hard time maintaining an erection.
Long Term Solution for Length
When it comes to penis enlargement, most men want to know about adding length as opposed to girth. Traction devices offer the best and most effective way to add length over time. Using traction to enlarge the penis has been done for centuries, dating back to ancient Egypt. Back then, men would simply stretch their penis by using small weights and pieces of twine. Traction works on the same principle of gentle pressure but today’s modern penis enlargers are able to do the job more effectively and more comfortably.
Traction devices can be found online as well as through some adult stores. All models use the same scientific principles so checking out the quality of the device as well as how comfortable it is to wear is key when choosing a traction device. Also be sure to look into how many sessions per week you’ll need to wear the device and how long each session needs to be. Traction works over time, so be prepared to wait a few weeks before you start seeing results.
Finally, there are medical options for penis enlargement. Aside from a full phalloplasty, or cosmetic penis surgical procedure, there is an outpatient option some men have started to consider. In 2012, researchers found that men who had been injected with Restylane experienced growth of up to 4 centimetres in girth and, 18 months after the injection, that gain was still present. Restylane is the more common name for hyaluronic acid, which is typically used for facial cosmetic correction, similar to that of Botox. Botox is another outpatient medical option, though it is primarily used as a treatment for premature ejaculation. While these options provide results much quicker than penis enlargers, they remain a bit off putting. In order to get the injection, a fairly large needle is used to inject the solution into the soft tissue of the penis using a sweeping back and forth motion which many patients find uncomfortable. After the injection, the area is rolled in order to better disperse the liquid. While the results are impressive, the procedure has kept this option from gaining in widespread popularity.
Options for penis enlargement continue to grow as scientists, researchers and inventors develop a better understanding of how to best manipulate the tissues of the penis. Traditional traction devices remain the best of the bunch when it comes to penis enlargers as they are effective, widely available and easy to use. No matter what you decide, taking some time to understand all of your options can help you find the enlargement options that will work best for you.
