FAQ's

Candidates are typically men with persistent ED who have not responded to less invasive treatments, or those for whom other treatments are unsuitable. This includes men with ED due to diabetes, prostate cancer treatment, vascular disease, or spinal cord injuries, among others.

While implants are designed for durability, they are not always permanent. The average lifespan is typically 10-15 years, though many last longer. Implants may eventually require revision surgery due to wear and tear or other complications.

No, a penile implant is designed to restore the length and girth you had before the onset of severe ED. It does not typically increase the size of your penis beyond its natural, erect dimensions. Some men may experience a slight perception of decreased length if their ED caused significant penile shortening over time.

No, penile implant surgery does not affect your urinary function. The implant is placed in the erection chambers, separate from the urethra, which is responsible for urination.

Yes, having a penile implant does not affect your ability to ejaculate or father children naturally, assuming you had those capabilities before the surgery. If you were undergoing fertility treatments prior to the implant, you can typically continue them.
