I don't blame you. Surgeons tend to be cautious with revisions since each one can increase the odds of infection. You might want to look up implant biofilms, no one wants to stir up a sleeping tiger right? Every situation is still unique though, so it's really important to have an in-depth conversation with your trusted surgeon about the risks and benefits for addressing the concerns.


That’s true. I mean for a cm more in girth, not worth it.

Dr. Carrion did mine at the 2nd surgery when he thought I had an infection ..since he split my whole penis open like a banana hard to say how long the actual healing was if I remember right having the webbing removed mad the whole healing process not much more of an issue.

Which is insane cause I swear Malleable’s have almost a 0% infection rate

I have come to terms with this and girth loss and im still happy as a clam to have an erection it’s a trade off but I have no difficulty hiding my erection as I am a chubby person.

my question is, I measured exactly 20 cm in both sides and it matches the size of my penis exactly almost. I saw user @Waynetho has a similar thing being 14cm erecrion and 15cm CX.

Why the 0.5cm RTE? Are they just used to stabilise the penis as he could have cut me to 0.5 exactly but did not.


what is the reason you got a malleable and not inflatable one?

Didn’t want an infection, Malleable’s are almost no chance of infection , I’m generally a unlucky person so I don’t want to take chances

Got a Rigicon for poor health reasons ..less chance of infection .. the idea of fooling around with the pump all time did not appeal to me

Here are the reasons on why I would consider a malleable:

-48% of commercial insurance claims in the US don't approve penile implant procedures
-Individual not eligible for Medicare yet
-Can afford one surgery but don’t have an extra $25K as a backup cash for a possible revision
-Ready for the 3rd implant covered by my insurance after the 1st two failed/infected
-No moving parts, reducing the risk of mechanical malfunction. Murphy's law - Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
-Family history of stroke which could impair hand dexterity in the future
