What is Penile Implant Surgery?
Penile implant surgery, also known as penile prosthesis surgery, involves placing a medical device inside the penis to allow men with severe erectile dysfunction to achieve and maintain proper and full erection. It is typically recommended for men who have not had success with oral medications, hormone therapy or less invasive treatments.
There are two main types of penile implants:
Inflatable Implants: These type of penile implants allow for a more natural erection. They consist of fluid-filled cylinders connected to a pump placed inside the scrotum. The pump is used to create an erection when desired.
Malleable (Semi-Rigid) Implants: These are bendable rods that keep the penis firm yet flexible for sexual activity.
Both types are designed to be completely concealed within the body and provide a natural appearance when not in use.
When Is Penile Implant Surgery Recommended?
Penile implant surgery is usually suggested when other treatments for erectile dysfunction have failed. It may be recommended in the following situations:
– Severe erectile dysfunction due to diabetes, injury or vascular disease
– Peyronie’s disease causing severe penile curvature
– After prostate or bladder surgery affecting erectile function
– When medications like Viagra or Cialis are ineffective or causes side effects
Before recommending surgery, Dr. Prarthan Joshi, an expert urologist in Ahmedabad, conducts a detailed evaluation, including physical examination, medical history and psychological readiness to make sure the procedure is right for each patient.
What to Expect During and After Surgery

The recovery period lasts a few weeks, during which swelling and mild discomfort observed and which is very normal. Most men can resume sexual activity about 6 to 8 weeks after surgery.
