Despite the fact that this question has been raised here many times, I still do not have a clear answer for myself when choosing an implant.
I have chosen a surgeon who can fix my situation, but I can not decide on the model of the implant that is right for me.
I am choosing between CX and Titan.
Previously, I had an operation to ligate the veins of the penis, which ended badly. Due to the formation of a hematoma, a combat operation was required, which led to the formation of scar tissue on the tunica albuginea and adhesions between the pubic bone and the penis in the area of the supporting ligament.
More than two years have passed since these operations. Now I have an upward curvature of the penis, taking the measure of the length due to adhesions in the adjacent ligament and a slight narrowing of the penis at its base. After these open venous interventions, I performed radiointerventional embolization of the pelvic veins, which had virtually no effect.
The implantation operation will be performed as follows: the surgeon will invert the penis through the penoscrotal approach, dissect the adhesions in the area of the supporting connection, mobilize the neurovascular bundle on one side and make incisions on the scar, which is located on the protein coat. After that, he installed the implant.
He has already named the operation for me, but I have some suggestions for choosing an implant.
I have learned dozens of tons of information on the Internet and talked to many surgeons from all over the world on this forum. But I still have open questions.
I have a fairly large girth of 16 centimeters - that's 6 - 6.3 inches. The length when fully inflated with a pump painfully is 17 cm, without a pump - 15-15.5 cm. Hopefully the scar dissection will help bring back some length.
I'm more inclined to the ams CX due to its more natural flaccid look, softer cylinders, and actually maybe better durability than the titan despite the titan's lifetime warranty considering the titan has issues with tube erosion.
But I'm worried that the cx will not allow me to maintain my girth, whereas with the titan I won't have to worry about maintaining my girth. The titan cylinders are 21 mm, the CX cylinders are 17-18 mm wide. But in his video Clavell shows that the inflated cylinders of the titan and cx are not very different: the inflated cylinder of the Titan is 7 cm, while the CX is 6.5 cm in circumference.
My surgeon assures me that with both models I will retain approximately the same circumference, but will lose it with the lgx, which I do not consider for myself at all. He says that the circumference is largely determined by the protein shell and the complementary erection. He has performed a large volume of both simple and very complex implantations of both the CX and Titan. But I only trust the facts. It is not entirely clear to me how the circumference can be the same with different cylinder sizes? I believe that the protein shell and the remaining erection determine the circumference to a very small extent than the cylinders themselves. I have collected over a hundred photos of penises with titan and cx implants and realized that the final appearance, including girth, largely depends on the anatomy of each penis. But in general, penises with titan implants are thicker. In terms of the rigidity of the cylinders, I think the cx will be quite enough for any type of sex. Perhaps the titan cylinders are a little more rigid and durable, but this rigidity is sometimes excessive.
Clavell mentions in his video that studies on cadavers have shown that titan and CX after implantation are approximately comparable in rigidity. But still, titan cylinders are more durable in terms of long-term reliability.
In addition to the girth, it is also important to me how the penis will look in a flaccid state, which already has scars from vein surgery, which I do not recommend to anyone. If I choose Titan, I will not worry about the girth, but I will worry about possible dog ears, folds and its unnatural appearance in a flaccid state. Some surgeons tell me that I won't have dog ears because my penis is quite thick, but the end result will only be after surgery. I know that I can do a few pumps and the folds will straighten out, it's not a problem. But it seems to me that then the penis will stick out a little forward, as if I have a half-erection. It will be problematic to hide it. If I'm wrong, please correct me.
I'm 37 years old and looking forward, I understand that I will have at least one, and maybe more revisions. Therefore, Coloplast is preferable here in terms of lifetime warranty.
Another question is the following: after the implant is installed, a capsule is formed during the first months. In your opinion, is it possible that if I choose CX, during the recovery period a capsule will form under the CX cylinders and nothing more. And if in the future I need a revision and decide to install titan, will the Titan cylinders not expand to their limits due to the size of the already formed capsule from the previous CX? If I choose titan first, it is clear that its cylinders will stretch the tissues to the maximum and create a corresponding capsule.
My surgeon and many participants of this forum with whom I managed to communicate in private messages claim that cycling during the first six months / year will allow me to return to my sizes of both length and girth with CX. There are several participants here whose girth with CX is 6 inches. Rodsmen, in my opinion, was able to achieve even a little more. Someone wrote here about the size with CX 6.5 x 6.5 inches. But I am worried that this may not be the case with me.
I lead a very active lifestyle and do several sports: running, including long distances, road cycling, gym, cross-country skiing, I used to do yoga, but I stopped, which I now regret. Yoga was the best medicine I ever tried, it allowed me to cope with this damn venous leak. After the implantation, I would like to continue doing sports. How comfortable will it be with each of the implant models? These sports involve high physical activity and, mainly, tight clothing: leggings, tight cycling shorts, running shorts. Most likely, after the implantation, I will have to give up skinny jeans and skinny trousers in the office. In your opinion, will the CX have an advantage over the Titan in this regard?
At 37, I still haven't been able to get married, have a normal, permanent relationship, or start a family because of the damned erectile dysfunction. And after venous surgeries that made my situation even worse and completely ruined my life, I quit my good job and have been in a terrible depression for 2.5 years now. But I'm not going to give up.
Since I'm single, this also makes me worry about the appearance of my penis in a relaxed state and slows down my choice between Titan and CX.
I hope that implantation will be one of the steps to returning to normal life.
To sum it up, if I had a guarantee of maintaining my girth with CX, I would choose it. If not, then maybe Titan.
I would be grateful for any advice and comments.
I am sorry that I have been away from this forum for a while. I have been using my amazing new dick! Yes, I am consistently 6-1/2” girth through most of the length of my dick. I had the surgery almost a year ago, and over the last few months the girth toward the tip seems to have increased. (CX) My best advice is to be very aggressive with pump use before surgery and when your doctor will let you post-surgery, as well as very aggressive cycling. I spent 3-5 hours a day for the first 3 months either cycling, pumping, or fucking after cycyling as hard as I possibley could. To this day, I continue to stretch while fucking and need to add some pumps while fucking to stay hard. The bottoms all love the feeling as my cock gets bigger and harder while I stay fully inserted in them. I have demonstrated my dick for hundreds of men and women and have guys that I got started that are healed. Now, it’s great to be able to feel the results in my own mouth. You will be the best possible boyfriend/husband material imaginable after your surgery!
Rodsmen, hello!
I was waiting for your comments)
You are one of those who could get such a girth with CX. But there are a couple more people with such a girth with CX. Thanks for the comment. I really have a difficult choice. My girth is above average (16 cm), and if I lose it, I will really be upset. All these statements of doctors and some guys here that it is better to have an erect pencil than a hanging big one, they, of course, have a place to be, but I do not agree with them. The girth of my strength is more important than the length. Honestly, if I knew that I would keep the girth with CX, I would have already gone for surgery. The guys here and some doctors say that I need some kind of Titan, but I really do not like its flaccid appearance. I am a young man, an athlete, an aesthete of my body. I would not want to see a crumpled plastic bottle inside my penis. But I must say that I have seen Titan several times, which did not have dog ears at all, they look absolutely normal. After having to endure my penis after the Charlatans, I would not want to screw up with the implant. The only thing I do not understand is how to capture more with narrower CX cylinders than with a coloplast? I have been working out with a pump for almost 3 months now for 30 minutes a day until my eyes sparkle, it is very painful. Because of the scar tissue, the length does not increase, since I have adhesions between the pubis and the protein rim, but I have also noticed an increase in girth.
