What is Penile Ligament Release?

During penile ligament release, the penis is made to appear longer by creating an incision through the ligament located under the base of the penis. This releases part of the penis that is normally inside the body and extends the length by about one inch. This length is maintained by attaching external weights for a period of several months.
