They are the bending point of the cylinders when they are deflated. Just think about a garden hose: when it is pressurized it is stiff and rounded; once it gets depressurized, and you hold it a few inches from the end, it will flatten, bent and create at that exact place two protuberances. Those are the dog ears.

Re: Does The Titan Touch Get Supple Over Time?
BTY, at least for me at the beginning on every single one of my 4 implants, they were extremely uncomfortable. But with time you get used to them. Maybe it is because the cylinders get more pliable with time, but at the beginning they are (excuse my French) a bitch...

If you're concerned with flaccid, get the AMS; if you're OK with semi-erect, Titan will do.
71. Married 35 yrs to sexy woman; ED at 62; pills/injections eventual fails; AMS implant 5/29/14 (Dr. Milam); yr later - severe burning, pain around shaft on inflation. Remove & replace with Coloplast Titan 10/18/17 (Dr. Kramer).

So how did you handle this while waiting for more flexibility? Seems like I'd have to wear a jockstrap over my jockeys to not show through the jeans. And going back to the gym in this condition is impossible.
Another question, how do you confirm that the Titan is really in it's most flaccid state and not needing more deflation? I can squeeze down to the point of what feels like just the cylinders, but it slowly gets plumper again.
Re: Does The Titan Touch Get Supple Over Time?
Good question. Those with a titan will already know deflated doesn't feel full t deflated unless missing a trick. Thoughts.
Now Implanted 9/12/17. 52 years old with ED for over 20 years. Tried all the pills and injections. Update. Implanted with Titan 22 + 1. by DR Ralph Dec 9th London. Now in recovery and at 3 months feeling the journey was worth the pain.
Re: Does The Titan Touch Get Supple Over Time?
I get my stitches removed tomorrow at day +14. I made an appointment at urgent care with a male physician's assistant just because that feels more comfortable. But I'm still going to be embarrassed by the semi-erect state of my flaccid when I see the PA. And I can't use the gym locker room in this condition.
Any tips for getting to a softer flaccid state with the Titan? Maybe use a jock strap with penis pointed down instead of up for awhile? Not really complaining but this is a concern.

I'm also wondering about this. I squeeze it flat using both hands but I really don't know how low it can go. It always seems semi-erect even when flaccid.
Age 72, wife is 52. 20+1 cm Titan Touch implanted by Dr. Kramer on 18 October 2017. Revision to AMS LGX 21+2 cm on 11 June 2018 by Dr. Carrion at Tampa General. Age-related ED + slight Peyronies bend (left) and slight hourglass in the center.
