"Based on current evidence, we suggest that penile extenders, not surgery, should be the first-line treatment....
Surgery is characterised by a risk of complications and unwanted
outcomes and lack of consensus among the medical profession
on the indications for surgery and the techniques used. That is why
a
non-invasive technique is preferable."

Some
studies have shown that penile curvature has decreased by 25°, sexual
function has improved, and the risk of surgical indications has been
greatly reduced..... PTT will play a more important role in the future.”

“In recent
years, penile traction therapy (PTT) has gained considerable interest as
a novel (new) nonsurgical treatment option for men with Peyronie’s
disease (PD) and short penises.....PD may benefit from a conservative
approach with PTT, resulting in increased penile length and reduction of
penile deformity. It appears to be safe and well tolerated.....”
