Fear

Also mate, you never know when you're gonna perish. Don't think just because you're in your 20's that you're going to live to see 80. Go have an implant, you have nothing to gain by waiting.

Look, I am an old man, but remember every one of us old men had to go through your age to get where we are now.

Your youth is a fleeting thing, and anything you can do to make it as gloriously enjoyable as possible is probably a good idea. If you go ahead (strongly recommended) and get an implant now, what is the worst thing that can happen? Yup, you'll have to get it replaced someday, but the replacement will be using whatever the state of the art is then. As to infection, it does happen, but the frequency has been brought to near zero in the last few years. Even that is not the end of the world, because they can do a salvage operation and you'll wind up with an operating implant anyway.

Go to a Urologist who has a few of these under his belt, and do it. Of course, Eid and Kramer seem to be the most often recommended, but there are many others who can do this very well for you. If you are in SW Florida, I have just been done by Dr. Scott Caesar, and I would use him again in a New York Minute.

This is the thought process that drove me to go and sign up for an implant OP today. I'm nearly 30, with about 35% erections, and that level is quite simply below my tolerance threshold.

So it's either a) keep the status quo, which we've established is crap
or
b) get an implant.

If I get an infection, then that's bad but I'll be in no worse a position than I am now, and as you say I'll still have a working (albeit, shorter) erection eventually. If there's no infection, then I've made it - welcome back to life.

Why would you assume you'll have a shorter erection?

I'm still healing, but Kramer told me there's no way I will lose any length.

And he's right. But specifically in the case of infection, if it's acute and you have a malleable put in for a few months before the re-try, you'll be lucky to conserve all your length. If it's just an instant swap out that should be okay. And if all goes swimmingly, no reason at all to lose any length.

You've brought up a good point... that's a good question to ask an implant surgeon you are considering. In the case of infection do they usually perform a salvage procedure or insert a temporary malleable device.

The European surgeon I saw yesterday said it depends on the type of infection i.e. whether the symptoms are localized to the penis (local pain, discharge) or whole-body (fever, bounding pulse, penile pain). He said one of these allows an instant swap and the other required a malleable put in for a few months.

I recently started seeing a men's health Dr. for treatment of Peyronies disease. I had my second appointment yesterday and I agreed to try splinting. The Doctor wrapped the shaft of my penis in gauze, a bandage and then put a splint on, which looked like one those traction devices with plastic rings at each end connected by adjustable metal rods. He instructed me on how to properly do this myself and told me to change the wrap daily. As soon as I got dressed, I could tell it was going to feel awkward. I went straight home and took my clothes off and was able to comfortably relax wearing just the splint and bandages. I took it off this morning to shower, then rewrapped and put the splint back on. I had to go to work, so relaxing in the nude was not an option. I'm pretty uncomfortable and self conscious about the extra bulge in my pants. I was wondering if anyone else who has tried this had any success or made any improvements? Also, how did you cope with wearing it? If it actually works I'm willing to put up with the discomfort. I hate to think about wearing this for an extended period and not seeing any results.

Its just a suggestion!
You are in your 20s and its very tricky age to get an implant ,it is obvious that you will need multiple revisions so what you can do..
I think you should go with a malleable implant that had low risk of failure
Hopefully it will work for 15years without any failure because most of the malleable they can last
After that if you need an another revision you can replace it with IPP
A study shows that if you change a malleable to IPP later you will end up getting a bigger implant

Waqas007, do you realize that literally no members agree that the malleable implants are the preferred implant. The problems with them are many. The girth is inferior. Erosion is more common. A constant erection only sounds good to a man that hasn't had a 24/7/365 erection.
The pornstar that got one only wanted it because it allowed filming at more angles than an inflatable without the pump showing. So he made more money with it.

Gt
At present he can't have sex at all so Something is better than nothing
There are many other guy who have malleable specially rigicon
How many guys complain about pump erosion on this forum have you read about that ?
He can have surgery for three time so he should be careful
