So Called "External Penis Enlargement"

Those who support this manner of division often cite 3 popular "external" methods; Extender Devices, Vacuum Pumps and Penis Exercises.

Penis Extender Devices

Penis extenders function on a principal similar to that used in orthopedic surgery. By applying traction force (stretching / tension) to the penis, the cells within begin to divide and multiply under direct stimulation. The resulting increase in tissue mass is reflected in a size increase in both thickness and length.

Penis Pumps

Penis pumps work by creating a vacuum around the penis which causes the tissues to expand and blood flow to accelerate. This results in a temporary increase in the size of the penis.

Penis Exercises

Stretching and massaging the penis through a series of targeted exercises is yet another form of penis enlargement. The main difference between this method and those mentioned above is that penis exercises require manual stimulation and make no use of external equipment.

"Internal Penis Enlargement"

On the other end of the spectrum we have what some would call "internal" penis enlargement. This consists primarily of penis enhancement pills and patches.

Enhancement Supplements

Penis enhancing supplements are generally formulated from herbal extracts and various other natural ingredients. They are designed to improve erection hardness and boost sexual stamina by increasing blood flow to the genitals. While the majority of supplements come in capsule or tablet form, there are some products such as penis patches which work by administering the dosage through the skin directly into the blood stream. Most reputable distributors supply a penis exercise program to be used in conjunction with the supplement in order to achieve maximum results.

Is There Really A Distinction?

One could argue that the first 3 methods adhere to an "external" method of enlargement since they each require physical interaction with the penis. This reasoning however is somewhat dismissive of the actual internal mechanisms at work. With the exception of penis pumps that only produce short-lived results, these treatments actually impact growth at the cellular level. In my mind this qualifies as internal penis enlargement as much as external.

Similarly, the supposed "internal" classification of penis pills and patches neglects to mention the actual external stimulation required for such systems to be effective. These supplements can improve penile functioning and performance but true growth will not occur without some form of physical manipulation. As I mentioned previously, this is the reason why most "enhancement" products are coupled with penis exercise routines. They may certainly enhance your gains but taken by themselves they will not produce much in the way of permanent enlargement.

I do realize that this information may be somewhat inconsequential to those men interested in penis enlargement. Most men are only concerned with the end results and not the particular vehicle chosen to achieve that end. As long as it works right?

While I generally echo that sentiment, I still feel it's important to clearly understand the methodologies behind the practice of penis enlargement. There's too much misinformation online and it's essential that we keep the facts straight.

There are basically two types of penis extender systems available today. The technical difference between these types is the method of traction that is applied. The older and original devices are attached to the penis through a silicon noose. More modern equipment, like the newly re-designed SizeGenetics™ device, replaces the noose with a silicon comfort strap. Since blood flow within the penis is an important factor when using such devices, these newer types are intended to promote better circulation and increase comfort.

Silicon Noose Extenders

Some extenders, such as the ProExtender™, use the classic silicon tubing or "noose method" of support. In essence, the penis is held in a stretched position by a noose that encircles the penis head. While the method itself has been shown to be effective, there are issues related to the restriction of blood circulation. In general, these types of devices put a limitation on the duration for which they can be comfortably used.

Silicon Comfort Strap Extenders

Since proper blood flow and adequate comfort are important aspects of the enlargement process, some manufacturers are now using silicon straps which improves circulation. Not only does this create a more healthy environment for the penis, it also increases comfort which allows users to wear these devices for longer periods of time. Since the amount of time the device can be used comfortably directly relates to enlargement gains, these comfort straps increase their efficiency and greater results can be achieved.

Both types of extenders, when used regularly and over time, have been shown to be effective at increasing the size of the penis. Ultimately the decision of which system to choose lies with the user himself. There is, however, no doubt that the construction of these devices will continue to evolve as newer, more comfortable, and more effective methods are tested and refined.
