Installation of testicular implant

Health and the absence of aesthetic defects in the genital area is very important for a strong half of humanity. Problems in this area can have a negative impact on a man's self-confidence, social and sexual performance. Plastic surgery methods, such as testicular implantation, circumcision of the foreskin and other techniques at an affordable price, allow you to get rid of such complexes.

Testicular prosthetics - features

Testicular plastic surgery is a surgical procedure aimed at correcting an aesthetic defect. Since the absence of one or both organs does not affect physical well-being in any way, but rather causes psychological discomfort.

The implant instead of the missing testicle is placed in order to remove the asymmetry of the genitals. A simple and fairly common operation makes it possible to raise men's self-esteem, get rid of complexes and psychological discomfort. Its essence lies in placing an artificial prosthesis in the scrotum made of modern biologically inert materials, which visually and to the touch will not differ in any way from a real testicle. This is confirmed by the reviews of our patients.

Indications and contraindications for implantation

Testicular prosthetics has not medical, but exclusively aesthetic indications:

• due to congenital pathology - a man does not have one (monorchia) or both testicles (anorchia);
• when the mechanism of lowering the testicle into the scrotum is broken (cryptorchidism);
• organ atrophy due to disease;
• the testicles were removed as a result of injury;
• the testicle is missing after surgery (oncology, torsion, etc.);
• testicles that are too small or not performing their function.

Such an operation is always individual in nature. However, there are general contraindications:

• acute inflammation;
• exacerbation of chronic and systemic ailments;
• diabetes;
• epilepsy, nervous disorders;
• pathologies in the scrotum area: cysts, seals, swelling.

Only the andrologist of the clinic, after consultation, makes an appointment for the operation of patients from Poltava, Kiev, Kharkov and other cities of Ukraine. It also announces the general order of prices and informs how much the operation costs in this particular case. If the examination reveals a deficiency of scrotal tissue, plastic surgery is impossible.

Varieties of endoprostheses

Artificial testicles for implantation come in different sizes (2-5 cm), correspond to natural ones in shape, are smooth and rough. But, necessarily trauma-resistant, which is achieved by the presence of several layers of the shell. This ensures that the liquid inside does not leak out in any way, even if the outer layer is damaged.

Most often, implants are used from medical silicone filled with saline solution, as well as from a hypoallergenic biopolymer with a polymer biogel inside. The latter, according to reviews, is the most perfect and modern option. The rejection reaction is excluded due to biologically inert materials. The prosthesis does not affect the reproductive function in any way.

Preparation and course of the operation

Before the operation, it is necessary to pass tests and undergo a complete medical examination. As well as ultrasound of the scrotum and a healthy testicle in order to correctly select the size and density of the prosthesis.

The intervention itself is carried out under both epidural anesthesia and general anesthesia. And it lasts about 30 minutes. The surgeon makes a small incision (2 cm long) along the spermatic cord. Forms a depression and lowers an artificial testicle inside the scrotum. The incision is sutured and a special fixation bandage is put on.

Recovery and risks

The operation itself is low-traumatic and the risks are minimal. However, possible complications:

• hematoma in the seam area;
• bleeding;
• suppuration;
• pain;
• implant capsule contracture.

To prevent this from happening, you need to follow the doctor's recommendations:

• 2 weeks to go for dressings, then the stitches are removed;
• to be in maximum rest for a week;
• avoid physical activity, sports, sex for a month.

Also, the doctor can prescribe a course of antibiotics or give individual recommendations.

Testicular implant placement - how much does it cost?

In the Clinic of Plastic Cosmetic Surgery in the city of Poltava, the cost depends on the material of the implant, the complexity of the operation, and the personal characteristics of the male body. The clinic also provides treatment for gynecomastia and other types of aesthetic correction for men.

And this is not surprising, since the level of professionalism of doctors, equipment and materials, modern surgical techniques is not inferior to those in the capital, and prices are an order of magnitude lower.
