Penis traction devices are coming into popularity as
of late, and with all the ‘new’ attention,
some people wonder if this idea is brand new and untested.
In fact the technique of using traction first took root
in ancient tribal customs, and the spiritual and cultural
practices of indigenous peoples. Now even our modern medical
community is using this method for rebuilding tissue in
surgical patients. The idea is centuries-old. What is
new is the development and creation of safe, effective,
medically approved devices that can be used at home. These
are now well-tested and well-documented, and have a history
of producing results.
Most of us are familiar with the more extreme examples
of what traction can do, like the practice of using neck
rings (native Thai peoples), and the ear and lip disks
worn by various tribes in South America. These native
peoples have been known to use these principles (stretching
the human body) to enlarge various body parts to unbelievable
sizes.
You may actually have seen this type of thing on National
Geographic Explorer, or the Discovery Channel; native
cultures like the Sadhus of India, the Peruvian Cholomecs,
or the Papua Indians of New Guinea all are said to have
used penis stretching to achieve lengths of over a foot
and a half! There are many examples of indigenous peoples
having used these techniques to achieve penis elongation.
Today, traction used to help heal the human body after
surgery, injury, trauma or burns. “Traction”
is the medical term used to describe carefully calibrated
and continuous pressure applied to the body. Put another
way, stressing tissues by stretching them leads to the
body place additional tissue in that area.
Examples include women who have undergone a mastectomy
(breast removal due to cancer). In this case tissue expansion
is used to grow more skin and muscle on the chest in conjunction
with reconstructive surgery. Men who have had penis enlargement
surgery are also instructed to use traction during healing,
to help strengthen and straighten the penis. Burn patients
can now have skin grafts by means of traction which "stretches"
or enlarges an area of skin next to the scar, making it
possible to cover over the scar and reduce the appearance
of discoloured tissue.
What actually happens with stretching is that the stretch
opens up spaces between the cells, triggering growth and
healing where the nearby tissue creates new cells to fill
in the spaces. As the body adds missions of new cells
over time, the tissue in that area expands and becomes
larger.
This is how penis enlargement devices work. The
X4 Labs
Extender,
a device developed and tested by X4 Labs,
uses a system of ‘tension bars’ to pull the
penis into a longer position to begin exactly the process
described above. With the lengthening of the penis, the
device is adjusted to increase the pressure for continued
growth. Sold under the name
X4Labs, this device is
easily purchased online or through your medical practitioner.
Tissue expansion is a revolutionary technique for human
body modification, and has both a medical history over
a century. In recent (recorded) history, a medical practitioner
Codvilla first used expansion for medical purposes in
1905 in an attempt to lengthen a femur. This experiment
was followed up later in the century when the medical
practitioner, Neuman expanded skin using an inflatable
balloon in 1957. Many successful experiments followed,
resulting in a body of medical knowledge and the invention
of new traction techniques.
Human tissue expansion has totally revolutionized plastic
surgery during the past 30 years. Expanders and guided
tissue growth have now been successfully used to enlarge
many areas of the body, from bone to muscle and everything
in between.
Tissue expansion is now used to reconstruct breast tissue.
Placed under the muscles of the chest (pectoralis major),
expansion is now a common procedure for breast reconstruction
after surgical removal of breast tissue due to cancer
(mastectomy). This allows a ‘filling in' of the
missing tissue, and a return to a more natural appearance,
rather than using prosthetics.
Burn patients have also seen fabulous recoveries through
treatment with a tissue expander to increase available
skin, rebuilding their appearance without the massive
scarring that typically results from such injuries. In
short, tissue expansion has revolutionized reconstructive
surgery.
Now tissue expanders of a different kind are being used
in Europe and in North America to safely and successfully
increase penis length.
Centuries of proof
There can be no question as to the effectiveness of tissue
expanders – the list of medical proof is a mile
long.
But tissue creation through stretching is not limited
to the last 100 years of medical history. In Thailand/Burma,
Indonesia, and South America, tribal peoples have performed
various body stretching as a cultural practice for many
centuries. Possibly the best known are the ‘Giraffe
Women' of Thailand.
The Giraffe Women live among the ‘Hill People'
(or Pa Dong Karen) who live near the borders of modern-day
Buma and Thailand. They are probably the best known example
of native cultures who practice body stretching. Known
as the Giraffe Women for their superhumanly stretched
necks, this tribe has practiced body stretching over many
generations.
It is a tradition that some of the women in the tribe
wear, by choice, a large number of ornamental brass rings
around their necks, starting when they are young (6 or
8 years old), and slowly, a ring at a time, lengthen the
distance between their shoulders and heads. The process
takes many years, but the results are astounding –
and very real.
The lesson here: the body absolutely responds to forces
put upon it – stretching is the only viable, proven
route to body modification for either medical or aesthetic
reasons.
With the list of reports about the effectiveness of medical
tissue expansion and the long history in native practices,
there can be little doubt that with the correct application
of force and a healthy regime, the penis CAN AND WILL
be made larger by proper use of a traction device.
A safe, modern solution
Using a tissue expander for several hours each day will
result in measurable results in just months. These devices
are typically low-profile and fit inconspicuously beneath
loose clothing, and can thus be worn during normal, non-physical
activities.
Traction devices use the principles that tissue responds
to stretching by creating new tissue, not just stretching
what is already there. Cell mitosis is the process by
which cells divide to reproduce themselves. Traction puts
a gentle tension on the penis, pulling the cells apart.
This intracellular tension causes the body to undergo
cell mitosis and grow new cells to relieve the tension.
Your penis actually grows new tissue.
These groundbreaking devices give you absolute control
of both the time and amount of tension put on your penis.
These devices allow the penis to be enlarged without invasive
and potentially damaging surgery. They are the safest,
most reliable method to modern penis enlargement.

Q: Is it safe?
One of the important questions (and most frequently asked)
is "how safe is it? Men want to be sure that any
device that they place on their penis, especially something
mechanical, is not going to cause problems. Most people
would agree; it's wise to know all you can about any medical
process before you commit and begin.
Penis extenders usually follow a similar design and the
best models tend to conform to a design like the one outlined
below.
Extender design
Most extenders consist of the following parts. The base
of the unit (which is pressed against the body) consists
of a plastic ring, usually designed with a notch for the
urethra (for comfort). A pair of metal bars (spanner bars)
attaches to the base and act as the main support for the
unit, often containing a spring in the better quality
units.
The far end of the unit carries a plastic resting plate
(moulded for comfort) for the head of the penis. Attached
to this plate is the ‘head restraint' strap, which
is usually made of silicone (for comfort along with durability).
Be sure that you are not allergic to silicone before wearing
one of these units over an extended period.
Be sure to purchase enough length with the spanner bars
to accommodate both your current size and the size you
aim to become. Begin with less pressure and build up,
as explained below.
Better units come with a means for protecting a sensitive
penis head. If you have an over-sensitive penis head (or
are uncircumcised) you may desire extra comfort, and should
definitely look into a unit that provides this extra padding.
But is it medically tested?
YES! Lengthening of the penis through a penis traction
device is a safe procedure when done according to the
instructions provided. With a medically tested
device like the
ProExtender
and
Fast Size you can take assurance
that both the device AND it's instructions for use were
designed by specialists in plastic surgery. Good quality
products are made available to the public only after sufficient
significant medical testing for safety and effectiveness.
The
ProExtender had nearly 10 years of such testing and
use before it was made available in North America.
High quality devices like the
ProExtender
and
Fast Size are absolutely
safe when used as directed, and can be relied upon to
deliver the results quoted.
