Product Review

Dr. Wayne Hellstrom - Chief of Andrology discusses traction devices. "I tend to prefer p*e*n*i*l*e traction devises over p*e*n*i*l*e pumps, in that they result in less p*e*n*i*l*e discomfort and permit longer sustained duration of use. I do feel that when combined with intralesional injection therapies, there may be benefit in concomitant use of the p*e*n*i*l*e traction device, and I routinely recommend their use in my patients, regardless of acuity of disease"... "For patients treated with plication or incision/grafting procedures, I usually start them on a combination of nightly phosphodiesterase inhibitors and p*e*n*i*l*e traction therapy for a few months"

Simply put, by applying a constant tension/traction to the p**e*n*i*s, the tissue in the p**e*n*i*s is gently stretched. The suspensory ligament, corpus cavernosum and the rest of the p*e*n*i*l*e tissue cells are stimulated and naturally go to work on rebuilding the cell tissue in it's new - LARGER state. This growth occurs due to the reaction capacity of the tissues to undergo cellular multiplication when they are subjected to a continuous force. Such tension creates a reaction of adaptation at the structural levels of the tissue's components of the p**e*n*i*s. This increase in cellular multiplication translates to an increase in the total number of cells, thus a PERMANENT increase in the LENGTH and GIRTH of the p**e*n*i*s is achieved, in both the erect and flaccid state.
