Penile Implant
What is a penile implant?
A penile implant is an erection assistance device that is surgically implanted into the penis to treat erectile dysfunction (ED).
A penile implant consists of either inflatable cylinders or malleable rods that are placed within the erectile chambers of the penis alongside your existing anatomy, allowing for erections when desired.
Penile implants are completely hidden inside the body. Unlike some treatments for erectile dysfunction (ED), penile implants can restore spontaneity and allow you to get an erection without any planning or waiting.
