Hey guys,
I'm expected to have surgery in May, but I have a few concerns regarding the "implantations per year" of the surgeon. Mine only does 15-20 a year, which is the second highest in my country (highest being around 30). I've read on these forums that most of you go with a surgeon who does atleast 70 implants a year, and I'm worried if 15-20 is a bit too low? The surgeon, who is a she actually have told me that almost everyone who has undergone penile implantation with her have been happy with the results, including young guys like me who've never had a full erection before. She's "only" had one interesting case where the guy were in too much pain for months and decided to remove the implant. The cause was unknown, as there were no signs of infection nor anything wrong with placement of the implant. I have the benefit of free healthcare in my country, so I don't have to pay a dime for it, which is great because I wouldn't be able to afford it otherwise. On top of that, she's a wonderful person, and I trust her.
Would appreciate if you guys could give me some input on this matter, and if there's anything else you think I should know before going through this, then please do tell.
Thanks in advance

Re: Young guy going for implant
Hey Alishan I too am scheduled for implant surgery in May and I am also a young guy of 30 years. Honestly I don't have any experience with them, since I haven't been implanted yet, but from what I understand from many posts it's best to find an experienced doctor so that they can size the implant correctly and there isn't much loss in length. That's my biggest concern is penile length loss so I seeked out a highly recommended surgeon in Shreveport named Dr. Gerard Henry. Heard and read good things and after chatting with him I trust his experience and feel good about it. He has wrote many papers and has definitely been a leader in the field and set the bar really high for others to follow. Hopefully you found one you feel good about since our manhood is literally in their hands haha... There is a lot of helpful people here that is very supportive. Maybe they can tell you if your doctor is good to go. Where are you getting it done? What is the date of your surgery? Mine is May 20. It would be great to keep in touch and give updates since we'll be going through it together. I'm getting really nervous as I said I hope not to lose any length but it will be great to never have this problem again and will be a huge weight off our shoulders. My anxiety has been through the roof for the past 10 years cause of Ed.

Re: Young guy going for implant
Thanks LMCatman it means a lot to hear you say that. I've suffered in silence with this problem for the past 10 or 11 years now and I just can't wait to put this nightmare behind me and be able to enjoy making love to women without the fear or anxiety anymore.

Alishan
Ask your doctor if you could talk to any of her patients who had the same surgery done?
What type of implant is she suggesting for you?
Is she going to have different implant sizes ready at the operating room?
Will she have the manufacture's rep present at the operating room?
I wish I knew which country you are getting this done.
When it comes to penile implant surgery, surgeon's experience is the most important thing.

Re: Young guy going for implant
I've read good things about the Titan Otr. I'm getting the AMS 700LGX, I like the fact that it can increase size that has been lost. Due to years of injections I have lost size from scarring. I just pray I don't lose anymore with the implant. I've read that the Titan has the most rigid erections though which is good.

Re: Young guy going for implant
I was about 6.75 to 7 inches before Ed. Now I'm at 5 inches but I'm not positive my real size because I can not get a full erection anymore. I hope the AMS 700LGX will help me to regain what I lost. I went a year or two without any erections due to my body building a tolerance to the Ed medications and injections, they no longer effective with me. Membrillo your surgery is coming up, someone told me using the VED device before surgery can help with increasing length? You ever heard of this? Can't wait to hear your results bro. I'm looking forward to mine. Take care.
