Penile Implants
“Men are facing the issue of erectile dysfunction (ED) in staggering numbers.”
For more than 80 percent of them, the cause is a physical problem or disorder that can usually be identified and treated using traditional options, such as:
- Lifestyle changes
- Oral and injectable medications
- Vacuum devices
For others, a penile implant may be a more effective, satisfying option.
What’s a penile implant?
A penile implant is a device that is placed inside the penis to allow men suffering from ED to get an erection. New implants on the market have a satisfaction rate exceeding 90 percent, are generally covered by insurance and offer a quick four- to six-week recovery period. Inflatable devices are the most common type of penile implant used and offer men a natural looking, easy to use, long lasting solution.
How do penile implants work?
Implants are totally concealed in the body and give a man with ED the ability to have an erection—instantly, whenever the time is right, for however long he and his partner want. It helps put the man back in control and back to a normal life.
