Re: Inflatable vs Malleable - My Experience with Both & Infection
Thank you for sharing Dr. Eid's valuable insights. It's one thing to repeat marketing material (plenty of YouTube content), but it's another to speak from experience with over 8,000+ surgeries. When you don't have comparative research data from an independent entity, the words of an experienced sur...

Re: Inflatable vs Malleable - My Experience with Both & Infection
Genesis is a great device. Does Dr. Eid also implant the Rigicon Rigi10? It claims to have the highest axial rigidity of 6.6 lbs among all FDA-approved malleable implants in the US market. I would like to know his rationale for selecting Genesis for you. The conversation I had with Dr. Eid about th...

Re: Inflatable vs Malleable - My Experience with Both & Infection
Thank you for sharing your detailed experience. You have gone through a lot of turmoil. Did you also take any psychiatric medications or undergo psychotherapy during this time? It's not something I could personally handle on my own, and I would need professional help to preserve my sanity if I were...

Re: Inflatable vs Malleable - My Experience with Both & Infection
Thank you for this post niceguy, it's enlightening. One question I had - in the days or weeks leading up to the development of your infection, can you think of anything you might have done or been exposed to that could have triggered it in the first place? Particularly messy sex, hot tubs, anything...

Re: Inflatable vs Malleable - My Experience with Both & Infection
Thank you very much for sharing your story. I’m not sure it will cool off the guys who want to jump directly to implants without giving other methods a good faith try but it ought to. You’ve got me a bit concerned about infection popping up unannounced, for no reason, at any time. I’ve had mine for...

Re: Inflatable vs Malleable - My Experience with Both & Infection
Wow, what a post! Very well written, structured, and all details described. Real added value. I'm glad you got over your infection!! I can really understand the passage about regret after the operation. A little about me: I got an inflatable titan in March 2022 when I was 27, pills hit&miss, sk...

Inflatable vs Malleable - My Experience with Both & Infection

I’ll break this post into parts, which includes: - Getting the inflatable implant - Surviving an infection - The process of recovering from an unsalvageable infection and how to pre...
