Flexible (One Piece) Malleable Prote

What is a Bendable (One-Piece) Malleable Prosthesis?

A bendable (one-piece) malleable prosthesis is a type of penile implant designed for men who experience erectile dysfunction. This prosthesis consists of flexible rods that are inserted into the penis, allowing the user to bend the penis into a position that enables erection whenever desired. The greatest advantage of this prosthesis is that the user can position the penis as needed. Although it does not replicate the natural feeling of an erection, it allows users to maintain confidence during sexual activity.

Advantages of Bendable Malleable Prosthesis

Bendable malleable prostheses have several advantages over other types of penile implants. These prostheses are user-friendly and easy to operate, especially for users with limited hand dexterity. Moreover, since there is no pump system like in hydraulic prostheses, malleable prostheses have a simpler structure, which increases their durability.

Another important advantage of these prostheses is that the surgery process is shorter and simpler compared to other prosthesis types. Thus, users can return to their sexual lives with a shorter recovery period.

Disadvantages of Bendable Prosthesis

Although malleable prostheses offer many advantages, they also have some drawbacks. Firstly, these prostheses keep the penis in a semi-rigid state continuously. This may be uncomfortable for some users and can cause a noticeable bulge under clothing. Additionally, these prostheses do not provide a natural erection feeling, so users may need to adapt to this condition.

Bendable Prosthesis Surgery

Bendable prosthesis surgery is generally performed under general anesthesia. During the surgery, flexible rods are inserted into the penis. This procedure allows the surgeon to place the prosthesis according to the patient’s anatomy. The recovery period after surgery typically takes a few weeks, and patients should avoid heavy physical activities during this time.

Post-Surgery Recovery Process

The recovery process after surgery is quite important. Patients may experience mild pain and discomfort in the first few days after surgery. However, this can usually be managed with painkillers. Patients should follow their doctor’s instructions during the recovery period and keep the surgical area clean and dry.

Who is Suitable for a Bendable Prosthesis?

Bendable prostheses are considered a last resort in the treatment of erectile dysfunction and are generally suitable for men who do not benefit from other treatment methods. They are also an ideal solution for men with limited hand dexterity or those who want to avoid the complexity of hydraulic prostheses. These prostheses are suitable for both young and older men.

Bendable (one-piece) malleable prostheses are an effective treatment option for men with erectile dysfunction. These prostheses are easy to use, durable, and reliable, helping users regain their sexual lives. The recovery period after surgery is short, and most patients can return to normal sexual activities shortly.
