What is a Penile Implant?
A penile implant is a medical device that is surgically placed within the penis to allow men with erectile dysfunction (ED) to achieve an erection. It is considered when other treatments for ED are not effective or suitable. The implants are discreet and not noticeable when the penis is flaccid. They are designed to mimic the look and performance of a natural erection.
Penile implants have been designed with patient comfort and functionality in mind, aiming to enhance sexual satisfaction and improve quality of life. It's a solution that many have turned to after finding unsuccessful results with medications or other therapies.
Types of Penile Implants
There are two primary types of penile implants: inflatable and malleable. The inflatable type can be pumped up to create an erection and deflated at other times. On the other hand, malleable implants are semi-rigid rods that can be positioned manually.
Each type has its advantages, and during a consultation, Robert Cornell will thoroughly discuss which option may be best for you, considering your lifestyle, health, and personal preferences.
Weighing the Pros and Cons
Like all medical procedures, penile implant surgery comes with its own set of benefits and potential drawbacks. We believe in providing a balanced view so you can weigh your options appropriately.
Some of the benefits include a high satisfaction rate and a relatively low risk of complications. However, it's important to consider that, as with any surgery, there are risks involved, which we will talk through in detailed consultations.

The Surgical Procedure: What to Expect
Undergoing any surgery can be stressful, but we're here to guide you through each step with ease and comfort. The procedure for inserting a penile implant typically involves anesthesia and is carried out by a skilled urologic surgeon. Our team will ensure you understand the entire process, from preparation through recovery.
We want you to feel confident and at ease when choosing to have a penile implant surgery. Our expert staff, led by Robert Cornell, is equipped to handle even the most complex cases with precision and care.
Pre-Surgical Consultation and Preparation
Before the surgery, you'll have a detailed consultation to discuss your medical history, current health, and the specifics of the penile implant procedure. We'll cover everything you need to know to make an informed decision.
We'll also guide you on how to prepare for the surgery, including any changes to medication schedules, fasting instructions, and what to expect on the day of the operation.
Day of the Surgery
Your comfort and safety are our top priorities. On the day of the surgery, our surgical team will take care of you every step of the way. The procedure itself typically takes an hour or two, and you'll be under general or spinal anesthesia.
Rest assured, you're in good hands with our experienced surgical team, and Robert Cornell will be leading the way to ensure your procedure is as smooth as possible.
Post-Operative Care and Recovery
After surgery, we'll closely monitor your recovery. You may need to spend a short time in the hospital for observation. Our team will provide detailed instructions for care once you are home to promote healing and reduce the chance of complications.
We'll organize follow-up appointments to check on your progress and answer any concerns you may have during the recovery period. With proper care and rest, most men can resume normal activities within a few weeks.
Living with a Penile Implant
Adjusting to life with a penile implant is an important topic we cover extensively. Many men find that they can return to an active and fulfilling sex life post-surgery.
The goal of the penile implant is to restore function and enjoyment. With our continued support, you'll quickly learn how to use and feel comfortable with your implant.
