DougAnd. I just read a med report plugging vacuum therapy for those who have just had an implant, sooner the better before scarring sets in. Good results shown. I intend to use my vacuum water pump to stretch back out starting about the third day. Has anyone tried this? Thanks

Is the med report online? If so do you have the link?

Let me find it was buried in another topic.DougAnd

Also they used vacuum air. Probably safer. I prefer water much more soothing

Here is a link not the one I found before still looking

Thanks for the link.

I approve this message.

Still cannot find the best article. But here is another one.
Preoperative use of vacuum erectile device to preserve penile size for inflatable penile prosthesis

Inflatable penile prosthesis (IPP) is typically the last resort for refractory ED. Penile atrophy as a result of IPP is the most common postoperative complaint, which reduced overall satisfaction with the procedure. The early and daily use of a VED soon after RP may lower penile length loss. In a study of postRP patients, Dalkin and Christopher found that only 1/36 (3%) of patients had a decrease in stretched penile length of ≥1.0 cm when the VED is used regularly after surgery. This decrease in penile length loss is significant when compared to earlier studies where 48% of men after surgery had a significant reduction in penile length (P < 0.0001). [41] Recently, it has been proposed to use the VED pump 2-3 months prior to IPP surgery because preliminary studies suggest that preoperative stretching with a VED may allow longer cylinder placements at the time of the penile prosthetic surgery. [5] However, the use of VED is generally not used after IPP surgery as there is an inherent risk of prosthetic cylinder damage. [42]

Overall, there is convincing evidence that VEDs are playing a crucial role in the early treatment of ED following RP. The maverick mechanisms made it omnipotent in combination therapy. The distinct penile size preservation function has been gaining more and more interest in penile rehabilitation. The summary of VED for penile rehabilitation trails is shown in [Table 2].
