What are penile implants?
Penile implants are medical devices placed inside the penis to help men achieve a reliable erection when oral medications or injections no longer work. At Urology Specialists of Austin, our board-certified urologists offer both inflatable and malleable penile implants. These modern solutions are discreet, feel natural to partners, and are designed to restore sexual function and confidence with high satisfaction rates.
Who is a candidate?
You may be a candidate for a penile implant if you have persistent erectile dysfunction (ED) related to conditions such as diabetes, prostate surgery, Peyronie’s disease, vascular issues, or medication side effects. During a confidential consultation, our team reviews your health history, goals, and lifestyle to determine the best implant type and size for you.
Why choose Urology Specialists of Austin?
Our practice combines fellowship-trained expertise with a compassionate, patient-first approach. We perform a high volume of penile implant procedures, which translates to refined technique, smaller incisions, and efficient recovery protocols. From pre-operative counseling through follow-up, you receive personalized guidance, clear expectations, and direct access to a care team that treats you like family.
What to expect from the procedure & recovery
Penile implant surgery is typically an outpatient procedure performed under anesthesia. Most patients return to light activities within a few days and sexual activity after the healing period as advised by your surgeon. We provide detailed instructions to manage discomfort, protect incision sites, and practice activation (for inflatable devices). Our goal is a safe, smooth recovery and a natural-feeling result.
Insurance & financing
Many insurance plans, including Medicare, may cover penile implants when medically necessary. Our coordinators help verify benefits and review financing options so you can focus on your health—not paperwork.
