Penile Implants for Erectile Dysfunction

Best Penile Implants for Erectile Dysfunction Procedure in Hyderabad

Penile implants are a treatment option for men who have erectile dysfunction (ED) and have not had success with other treatments such as oral medications, injections or vacuum devices. A penile implant i.e weak pennies treatment involves the surgical placement of an artificial device that can create an erection suitable for sexual activity.

Here are the steps involved in a penile implant procedure:

  1. Preoperative preparation: Before the procedure, the patient is usually given medication to prevent infection, and general anesthesia is administered. The patient is then positioned on the operating table.
  2. Incision: The surgeon makes a small incision at the base of the penis, or at the scrotum, and creates a space in the erectile tissue to place the implant.
  3. Placement of the implant: There are different types of penile implants, but the most common are inflatable and non-inflatable. Inflatable implants are made up of cylinders that are inserted into the penis and a pump that is placed in the scrotum. The pump is used to fill the cylinders with fluid, creating an erection. Non-inflatable implants are made up of rods that are inserted into the penis, and the patient manually bends the penis into position for intercourse.
  4. Closing the incision: Once the implant is in place, the surgeon will close the incision with sutures or staples.
  5. Postoperative recovery: The patient is typically monitored in a recovery room for a few hours and then discharged with pain medication and antibiotics. Patients may experience some pain and swelling for a few weeks after the procedure, but this is usually manageable with medication. Most patients can return to normal activities within four to six weeks after surgery.
