Penile Prosthesis Implantation
Penile prosthesis implantation is a surgical procedure designed to restore erectile function in men with erectile dysfunction that does not respond to medication or other treatments.
The procedure involves placing a medical-grade implant inside the penis to allow natural-looking, controllable erections.
This treatment focuses on improving both functional performance and confidence while ensuring patient safety, comfort, and long-term satisfaction through a personalized surgical approach.
🩺 Current Approach to Penile Prosthesis Implantation
Erectile dysfunction (ED), or the inability to achieve a full erection, is a common issue among men, particularly with advancing age or in those with underlying medical conditions such as diabetes, hypertension, or following prostate surgery.
While many men may try oral medications or injectable treatments, some do not achieve satisfactory results. In these cases, penile prosthesis implantation provides an effective and long-lasting solution, offering a reliable option to restore erectile function and improve quality of life.
🔹 What is a Penile Prosthesis?
A penile prosthesis is a medical device surgically implanted into the penis to enable controlled erections, making it suitable for men who do not respond to other treatments.
There are two main types of penile implants:
1. Inflatable Implant
-
Can be inflated or deflated on demand.
-
Provides the most natural-feeling erection.
2. Malleable (Semi-rigid) Implant
-
A bendable silicone rod.
-
Easy to use and simple to maintain.
Both types are safe, FDA-approved, and are widely used in leading hospitals around the world.

⏳ Recovery Period After Surgery
The typical recovery period is around one month. Patients are required to return for follow-up appointments to assess wound healing and receive guidance on how to properly use the penile implant.
Full usage of the implant can generally begin approximately two months after surgery.
🩹 Postoperative Care
-
Maintain hygiene:
During the first 10 days, clean the body with a wipe instead of taking a full shower. Once the wound has sufficiently healed, normal bathing can resume.
-
Wear loose clothing:
Helps prevent friction and promotes faster wound healing.
-
Take medications as prescribed:
Follow the doctor’s instructions carefully for both pain relievers and antibiotics.
-
Avoid sexual activity:
For at least 6–8 weeks, or until the wound has fully healed.
-
Avoid strenuous activities:
Such as heavy lifting or vigorous exercise for 4 weeks after surgery.
📋 Information to Provide Before Surgery
Before deciding on a penile prosthesis implantation, it is important to give your doctor a complete medical history, especially regarding:
-
Any previous treatments for erectile dysfunction (ED).
-
Use of medications, injections, or Shockwave Therapy.
Medically, penile implant surgery is considered a “last-resort” option for patients who have not achieved satisfactory results with other treatments.
At our clinic, the treatment sequence typically begins with:
1️⃣ Focused Shockwave Therapy
2️⃣ Medications
3️⃣ Supplements and/or hormone therapy
Penile prosthesis implantation is considered only if these methods are ineffective.
🧑⚕️ Doctor’s Summary:
Penile prosthesis implantation is a technology that can help men regain confidence and improve their quality of life. However, like all surgeries, it requires a thorough medical evaluation.
If you or a loved one suffers from erectile dysfunction (ED) that has not responded to other treatments, consulting a specialist physician is the best first step. 💙
