LGX vs CX Implants

I didn't ask about the type of mechanical failures. Even it was the pump all the time. 5 out of 5 is not exactly confidence-building. I'm fine with getting an AMS instead. The question now is which one.

It is important to understand your measurements and if you have lost any measurements over time

I never heard about a "5 out of 5" rigicon failures, I have rigicon myself, it didn't fail, and there are several members of this forum with rigicon. Also I know several doctors who install hundreds of rigicons and don't have anything bad to say about the brand.

I do know in the early days they were unreliable but I haven't heard anything bad since pulse came out.

Just my 2 cents

If you want a length expandable implant, the AX from rigicon is superior to the LGX, but if you don't need expandable then you have plenty of options

Doctors use these tactics to get you to choose the device that best suits them, I am surprised here that it has not yet been understood by users, another thing...if you have not understood, regarding malleable and inflatable devices, there is a world order to push inflatables

I also agree that we may not be getting unbiased data..

For one, I cannot understand how there are so many reports of Rigicon IPP failure. It's a new model but it's not that new. Four years now I think.

I also heard that some of the engineers from Coloplast and AMS moved over to work there. Perhaps someone else can verify.

It does make me wonder if there are detractors on this forum with interests against Rigicon... I wouldn't be surprised if the other two players were trying to crush it.

your surgeon is a fraud, not to mention that he stopped implanting rigicons and that he made agreements with ams he told you that 5 out of 5 rigicons broke

Well. Opinions are like assholes...

It's not like I asked for an opinion abut my surgeon. I simply stated the reason why my choice is between the two AMS models
As long as I get a working implant, I couldn't care less which brand it is. I'm not paying for it. Besides that, I don't think you have the slightest idea how the healthcare system in the Netherlands works. You don't go to a private penis McDonald's here where they ask you if you want some fillers and a milkshake with your implant. The whole process is covered by basic healthcare and the doc does not benefit of using one over the other. He is getting paid by the hospital and if he had any financial relations with a medical company, it would be visible in the national transparency register.

Now this makes me wonder if you are getting paid by the aluminum industry to promote the use of tin foil hats

Definitely a Coloplast or AMS employee over here. That or there's a Naive of the Year competition going on that I don't know about.

Was that comment directed at me? I don't have a surgeon yet!

If you are from the Netherlands, you can go to Van Rhenterghem, he is one of the most respected surgeons in europe in penile implants, and according to himself he is the highest implanter in Europe (when i talked to him in 2023). And he loves Rigicon. So if i was dutch, i would at least get a consultation with Van Rhenterghem before making a final decision.

P.S: Your dutch insurance should cover the surgery with Van Rentherghem, which normally costs over 20k euros.

the ssn works in the same way in italy I assure you, but I can't believe that 5 out of 5 rigicons have failed, we have several on this forum that have had no problems, if they were put on the market, a minimum of experimentation was done, 5 out of 5 is a hoax
