Abstract (original English)

Aesthetic procedures can increase the girth and visual length of the penis. Dermal-fat grafts increase penile circumference without the complications that result from fat injections. Release of the suspensory ligaments with skin advancement may increase flaccid penile length. Suprapubic lipectomy and Z-plasty of a penoscrotal web enhance penile appearance. Accurate diagnosis and meticulous technique are mandatory.
