Penile extenders for Peyronie's disease
Penile extenders are medical devices that apply gradual traction to correct penile curvature in a non-surgical and safe manner. At Andrología Málaga, we use them under specialised supervision to improve sexual function and reduce discomfort.
What are penile extenders?
A penile extender is a medical device designed to apply continuous traction to the penis, gradually stimulating tissue remodelling.
In cases of penile curvature or Peyronie’s disease, the extender not only helps to slightly lengthen the penis, but can also reduce the curvature caused by the fibrous plaques that form in the tissue.
It is a non-surgical, safe and effective method when used under the supervision of specialists in urology and andrology.
Penile extender treatment for Peyronie's disease
1
Fitting the device
The extender is fitted over the penis, placing the base and ring in the correct position. For curvatures, traction can be directed in the opposite direction to the curve, which helps to gradually straighten it.
2
Gradual traction
A slight constant tension stimulates the corpora cavernosa and the tunica albuginea, promoting a reduction in curvature and, in some cases, a slight increase in length.
3
Regular and supervised use
The device is used for several hours a day, as directed by the specialist. The tension is adjusted gradually to ensure comfort and safety. Medical monitoring is essential to avoid discomfort, injury or complications.

Long-term results
Gradual improvement in penile curvature. Increased tissue elasticity and prevention of deformity progression. Improved sexual function and patient confidence.
