Getting Acquainted with Your Device
Your journey begins with understanding your specific type of penile implant. Typically, there are two main types: the inflatable implant and the malleable implant. Each has its unique features and operating instructions. We will guide you through the essential aspects of each, ensuring that you can manage your implant with ease.
We take great care to ensure that every patient understands their implant's functionality. The nuances of operating your implant should be second nature, like any other daily task, so that you can live your life freely and with confidence.
Operating the Inflatable Implant
For those with an inflatable implant, operation entails a few straightforward steps to achieve and reverse an erection. It generally involves inflating and deflating the device using a small pump located in the scrotum. While this may seem daunting at first, with a bit of practice, it becomes a simple process.
It's important to familiarize yourself with the inflation mechanism gentle but firm squeezes on the pump fill the cylinders within the penis, resulting in an erection. Reversing the process is just as simple, usually involving pressing a release valve. We'll help you practice this in a comfortable environment, ensuring you can perform these actions discreetly and effectively.
Navigating the Malleable Implant
If you have a malleable implant, your experience will differ slightly from that of the inflatable option. Malleable implants are designed to mimic a natural erection and are manually positioned. They are simple by design and do not require pumping or deflating.
Operation involves bending the penis into the desired position for sexual activity and then bending it back towards the body when not in use. Our guide will offer detailed instructions on how to manage this with care to ensure functionality and comfort.
Maximizing Your Comfort and Assurance
It is absolutely normal to experience a degree of apprehension when first operating your penile implant. However, our clinic is devoted to ensuring that you feel assured and comfortable at every step. From initial operation guidance to accessible ongoing support, we're here to aid in a seamless transition to this new phase of your life.
Remember, handling your penile implant correctly not only maximizes your comfort but also ensures its longevity and effectiveness. If at any point you feel uncertain or need a refresher, we're only a phone call away at (903) 957-1104. Your peace of mind is our priority.
The First Weeks: What to Expect
The initial phase post-surgery is crucial. There will be a healing period during which you will be advised to avoid operating your implant. This allows your body to recover fully and ensures the implant is securely integrated.
We urge you to follow the post-operative care guidelines provided by our medical team meticulously. These have been crafted to facilitate a smooth recovery and pave the way for successful use of your implant.
Practice Makes Perfect
As with any new skill, becoming adept at operating your penile implant will come with time and practice. We encourage you to approach this learning curve with patience and persistence.
Our practice sessions are designed to be thorough yet straightforward, empowering you to handle your implant with confidence. Rest assured, you will gradually become more proficient, and operating your implant will soon feel like second nature.
