Erectile dysfunction can follow diabetes, prostate surgery, pelvic injury or blood vessel problems. When medicines and other treatments fail, an implant gives a reliable mechanical solution.
The inflatable type has cylinders in the penis, a pump in the scrotum and a fluid reservoir in the abdomen. The man squeezes the pump to create an erection and releases it afterwards. The malleable type uses bendable rods. The device is hidden inside the body.

Frequently asked questions
Will others know I have an implant?
An inflatable implant is usually hidden. A malleable implant may be noticeable as it stays firm.
Does the implant affect sensation or orgasm?
Sensation and orgasm usually remain the same. The implant only affects firmness.
How long does an implant last?
Many devices last many years, but some need replacing. Your surgeon explains device-specific details.
Can diabetics have implants?
Yes, many men with diabetes have implants. Good blood sugar control before surgery lowers the infection risk. Your surgeon may ask for a recent HbA1c result.
When can I fly home after the implant?
Usually after about a week or so, once wound checks are done. Follow-up for device activation may be done at home.
