Understanding Penile Implants and Your Options

First things first, let's talk about what penile implants are, and why someone might need one. A penile implant is a medical device that's surgically placed within the penis during a procedure.

What is a Penile Implant?

At its core, a penile implant is a medical device designed to help men with ED achieve an erection sufficient for sexual intercourse. There are two main types of penile implants: inflatable and malleable (or semi-rigid). Each type has its own set of benefits and considerations, which Robert Cornell can discuss with you in detail.

Inflatable implants are the most popular choice, giving a more natural appearance and concealment. They consist of cylinders that are filled with fluid to achieve an erection and can be deflated when not in use.

When is it Time for an Update or Replacement?

There could be a few signs indicating that your penile implant may need to be updated or replaced. If you're experiencing discomfort, mechanical issues, or just feel like the implant isn't functioning the way it used to, it might be time to consider a revision. Also, as medical technology advances, newer models might offer features that better suit your lifestyle or preference.

Don't worry, though; Robert Cornell will walk you through all the signs to look out for and help you make an informed decision about whether a replacement is right for you.

What the Process Looks Like

The process of updating or replacing your penile implant involves a surgical procedure that typically takes between 45 minutes to an hour. Our team will ensure that you have all the necessary information before your surgery, including instructions for pre-operative preparation and what to expect during recovery.

Our focus is on your comfort and safety, so we'll be here to support you with excellent care and ample resources to guide you through recovery. Remember, you can always reach out to us at any point if you need assistance or have questions.
