Understanding Penile Implants
So, what exactly is a penile implant? It's a medical device designed to help men who suffer from erectile dysfunction (ED). It's a solution when other treatments haven't worked out. Outfitted with our expertise, we're here to ensure that you're thoroughly acquainted with the nitty-gritty of the procedure before taking the plunge. With Erlanger East Hospital , you'll feel confident and prepared, knowing you're in capable hands.
Types of Penile Implants
There are several types of implants, and it's crucial to understand the options:
- Inflatable implants: They can be manually inflated when an erection is desired and deflated after.
- Malleable implants: These implants keep the penis firm but bendable.
The Procedure Itself
The surgery is typically done under anesthesia. The implant is placed through an incision in the penis. Recovery times vary, but with our guidance, you'll be prepared for the journey.
Benefits and Success Rates
So, why opt for a penile implant? The benefits can be life-changing. You're reclaiming your sexual health, and most men are satisfied with the outcomes. Success rates are high, and while complications can occur, they are not common with a skilled surgical team.
