I got my implant (by a well-known surgeon in a big city clinic) about a year ago. After it healed, I noticed there was a significant bend in the shaft. The doc said it would straighten out, but it hasnt. I'm at a loss for what to do about it. Leave it. Let 'em try to correct it surgically. Hire a lawyer. It pretty much straightens out when I pump it up, but it still leans left a good bit. It was totally straight before surgery and an inch longer.

Sorry to hear you're having some troubles with your result. Have a read of this forum post; some doctors are aware that post-surgery scar tissue exists and they believe it can be stretched out

I will add that I would probably eliminate the lawyer option and, if it's not bothering you too much, the surgical revision option. Mine curves to the left and like yours, is mostly straight when erect. For me personally, totally not worth going back into surgery over.

I had a downward slope of about 30% before the surgery. Month after implant my slope was even more of a drastic bend, and my doctor pointed it out and told me to make sure and hold it straight fairly often as an exercise to get it back.

Mine is said to have resulted from different lengths of tubes being implanted on either side. Dr. said it was warranted because my member was already longer on one side than the other. ( I hadnt noticed.) The intent in revision is to remove the longer tube and replace it with the same size as the other. I'm inclined to go ahead with the revision, but as it's scheduled two months from now, I will try the stretching and bending routine I've now read about here on FT. Thanks for the input. More is welcomed.

Dr Eid gave me two different length of cylinder as well; exact sizes are in my signature block below this post. I agree with you, I think this is what's causing mine to bend to the left as well. My right side cylinder is 2cm longer than the one he put in my left side.

Interesting, I had surgery with Eid and am now experiencing the same issue. +1 RTE on my right side. For the first 2-3 years everything was perfectly straight and the cylinders were the same length. Then one day I noticed that my right cylinder went further our than my left, and my dick noticeably curved to left. Fortunately my gf doesnt notice anything different during sex, but she can visually see it and with her hands feel the difference.

Were you able to contact Eid about this and get any advice or next steps? I have to travel to NY soon for work so figured i might stop by and have him check it out in person. I have no worries if i need to get a revision done. But ya, I'd love to keep you guys updated if it helps.

I am still very happy with my choice with Eid, life has been great since.

Nah I haven't mentioned it to him. I am very happy with the results and certainly would not be interested in having a revision surgery just to get the cylinders to be ever so slightly changed. I can't imagine what else he could possibly recommend to fix it, other than cycling which I'm already doing.
