A penile implant is a medical device inserted into the penis during surgery. It's designed to help men with erectile dysfunction (ED) achieve and maintain an erection when other treatments are not effective or suitable. It's also a solution for men experiencing ED due to other health problems like diabetes or prostate surgery.

There are different types of penile implants, but they all aim to restore sexual function and improve quality of life. Choosing to receive a penile implant is a personal decision, and our team is here to guide you every step of the way.

Penile implants are considered when other treatments for ED have failed. Unlike medication or external devices, implants offer a more permanent solution that can greatly enhance sexual satisfaction and spontaneity. They are discreet and entirely contained within the body, making them unnoticeable in everyday life.

Undergoing a penile implant procedure is a significant step that can lead to improved self-esteem and a fulfilling sex life. We strive to explain the process in a way that's easy to understand, ensuring you're comfortable and ready for the journey ahead.

Here, we'll offer a general overview of what to expect during a penile implant surgery. Keep in mind that each patient's experience may vary, but understanding the basics will help you feel more prepared for your procedure.

A penile implant surgery is usually completed within an hour and is performed under anesthesia. The implant is inserted through an incision either above the penis or below, depending on the type of device and the patient's anatomy.

The key steps include: preoperative preparation, anesthesia, the incision, placement of the implant, and closure of the incision. We'll walk you through each phase so you know exactly what to expect.

Penile implants come in two main types: inflatable and malleable. Inflatable implants are the most popular type as they allow for more natural-looking erections and better flaccidity when not in use. Malleable implants, on the other hand, are constantly firm and are bent into position when an erection is desired.

During your consultation, Dr. Jane Doe will discuss the pros and cons of each type, helping you choose the one that fits your lifestyle and preferences.

Recovery time can vary, but most men can return to their normal activities within 4 to 6 weeks. It's important to follow all aftercare instructions and attend follow-up appointments to ensure proper healing and function of the implant.

Our team provides a comprehensive aftercare plan to support your recovery. We'll discuss pain management, incision care, and how to gradually return to sexual activity.

Penile implants are designed to last many years, and many patients report high levels of satisfaction with the results. While it's considered to be a long-term solution, it's important to understand that implants may require maintenance or replacement over time.

Dr. Doe will review the expected longevity of your implant and what you can do to maximize its lifespan. With proper care, your implant can help you lead a more satisfying sexual life for years to come.

Navigating the decision to get a penile implant can bring up many questions. We're here to provide clear and concise answers. For further guidance or to book a consultation, please contact us at (626) 284-9278 . Our team is ready to assist you with professional and compassionate care.

We understand that you may have several questions when considering a penile implant. Our goal is to provide answers to some of the most commonly asked questions, empowering you with the knowledge to make informed decisions about your health.

In this section, we'll cover a variety of questions that patients frequently ask. We hope these answers will provide additional clarity and help ease any concerns you may have.

While a penile implant allows you to have erections suitable for sexual intercourse, it does not preserve natural erectile function. The device itself creates rigidity, either on-demand or continuously, depending on the type of implant.

Dr. Doe will discuss the impact of the implant on natural erectile function during your consultation, providing a clear understanding of what to expect after surgery.

Like all surgical procedures, there are risks involved with penile implant surgery. However, it's a generally safe procedure when performed by a skilled urologic surgeon like Dr. Jane Doe. We take great care to mitigate potential risks and ensure a smooth, complication-free experience.

Our team adheres to strict surgical protocols and uses the latest techniques to enhance safety and patient outcomes.

Penile implants are designed to assist with erections and do not typically interfere with penile sensation, the ability to urinate, or the process of reaching orgasm. You should be able to enjoy a satisfying sexual experience post-surgery.

If you have concerns about how the implant may affect your sexual function or pleasure, we encourage you to discuss them with us.

Many partners of men with penile implants report increased satisfaction with their sexual relationships. The implant restores a degree of spontaneity and reliability that can be difficult to achieve with other forms of ED treatment.
