New bionic Titan one-touch my journal

[AntonS]

Day 12 after implantation:

On Friday, the stitches were removed, and the doctor (my surgeon's assistant, as my surgeon was currently away) activated the implant. I was shocked! Specifically, I was shocked by how awful my penis looked. There was a large dent at the base on the left side, and it had become shorter.

When I got home that evening, I decided to try pumping it. At first, I didn't pump it fully, and it looked the same. But I didn't stop and kept pumping. To my surprise, the dent began to smooth out and eventually smoothed out completely, which I was incredibly happy about. I was also happy to see that there was still some size loss, but not as severe as I expected. Keep in mind that I had already lost some length after those damned vein surgeries, which forced me to resort to such drastic measures. I've also lost about 1 cm over the last year and a half due to the development of cavernous fibrosis, which I didn't expect, as I was still getting morning erections while taking 10 mg of tadalafil daily. But maintaining an erection was completely impossible. I've been actively using a pump for a whole year! Maybe this could have caused the cavernous fibrosis, but I don't know for sure.

So, I completely inflated my implant, and my joy knew no bounds! I stood up, looked in the mirror, and couldn't believe my eyes! My penis was as hard as it had ever been in my life! Or maybe it was back when I was 17 or 18, when I was bursting with erections and never thought something like this could happen to me at a young age. But the main thing is, it didn't go down! My main problem was that at first, it was difficult, and after the charlatan surgeries, it was practically impossible, to maintain an erection. The angle of the erection is slightly upward, just like before, but there's a reason for that now, which I'll explain below. I think the angle will become less acute over time. The hardness of the Titan is amazing! I don't know what girl could handle such a hard penis! It's simply unnatural. I tried masturbating lying down, but the head never filled up. Then I started gently masturbating standing up and imagining something pleasant. The head of the penis has become very full and thick, almost as thick as before, which also made me very happy, but as soon as I remove my hand, blood immediately flows out of the head. It feels like the Titan is so hard and rigid that it squeezes all the blood out of the penis. Many of you here know that I hesitated for a long time between the Titan and the CX. Now I understand that the CX's hardness will be quite sufficient. I was also unsure about the loss of girth with the CX. Professor Gamidov assured me that the cylinders of any implant model don't swell 100% inside the tunica. Today I pumped the implant again and confirmed this. When I pumped the implant in the doctor's office, the cylinders were much wider. Girth will ultimately be affected by your residual erection.

By the way, I still have my own erection in the morning, even without taking tadalafil, which was a pleasant surprise. But for now, it's painful!

On the very first day, I kept the implant inflated for an hour, and I can say that the pain I experienced is nothing compared to what I've already endured. It's tolerable. As for sensitivity, my penis is completely numb, both top and bottom, as is the incision area. I had a complex surgery with painstaking and very dangerous work with scar tissue on the dorsal side. And I'm very worried about whether even partial sensitivity will return. I think it will take a long time, possibly several months.

Yesterday, I inflated the implant again, and, as they say, it didn't last long. The dent at the left base became even more pronounced. Afterwards, I began palpating the area where the surgeon removed adhesions and scar tissue near the ligament to free my penis, as it felt like it was tied to my pubic area with wire after the negligent surgeries of charlatans who must be eradicated in the future. I just want to wipe them off the face of the earth! So, on the left side of my penis, at the base, I felt a hard lump that starts on the side and extends right into the pubic area. It's preventing all the tissue inside from fully expanding. I got scared and wrote to my surgeon, to which he replied that it was tissue swelling that formed after he created a channel through the penoscrotal approach to access the ligament and dissect the scar tissue and adhesions at the level of the Buck's fascia. And it really does look like a channel.

I hope it goes away. But for now, I'm worried about creating another adhesion. Professor Gamidov strongly advises me, despite the pain, to vigorously cycle the implant twice a day for an hour at a time. For now, I'm only able to do it once, as after cycling, both my penis and scrotum ache intensely, as if someone had placed a 16-kilogram weight in them when I wash it off. Lying down makes it much easier.

I also wanted to ask you guys if you've ever had a problem where the sides of my balls, where they touch my legs, feel like they've been rubbed raw, but there's actually nothing there. I applied some panthenol, but it didn't help. Then I sprinkled some baby powder on them, and that helped a bit. I need some thick underwear that would separate my balls from my legs. Right now, I'm wearing regular boxers, and it looks like my legs are bowed.

I pumped the implant again today, and it looks a little better. The swelling from the surgical canal (I really want to believe it's just swelling), the swelling of the scrotum, and the swelling of the penis itself are still there. My penis is completely numb, and the head only gets engorged when I stand up. In fact, I feel like the Titan is squeezing all the blood out of my penis. I really hope this is temporary.

I'll continue pumping daily through the pain and hope for a full recovery. There's no turning back. And it's better than sitting in the hell of ED and a ruined life, fearing, waiting for a miracle that will never happen, and not deciding to get the implant. The first day I inflated it, I felt my head being freed from the unbearable thoughts that had been destroying me for the past three and a half years. I immediately needed everything! I've already bought a running watch and new Adidas racing shoes, the latest model. I'm praying to God that everything will be restored this time and that I'll have the opportunity to try this thing and my new running shoes soon. Honestly, even given my current situation, it's like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders!

I'll keep you updated and write an update a little later.

After debating CX vs Titan for such a long time you finally did it man. I'm proud of you finally pulling the trigger. I do like your approach of doing the detailed research, setting up your own correct expectations. All the best on road to recovery and getting control back of your life. I hope things will only get better from here.

The ligation and subsequent complications destroyed my penis and turned my entire life into a nightmare. If it weren't for the ligation, I could have stayed on the pill for several more years.

I see. Thanks for sharing your story.
I read that you were unsure deciding between CX and titan, what you think were pro and cons of each one and what helped your decision?

After my research, I could write an entire encyclopedia about choosing between CX and Titan. There are a huge number of pros and cons, on both sides. I didn't want to lose my girth if I chose CX, but while I was considering it, I ended up losing length. Could anyone else please tell me if they've lost length after Titan implants? Will I regain at least some of it after a few months of active cycling?

I am in the middle of my third week post surgery.
I used to use the VED religiously. As a result, my erections are already longer than my normal ones pre surgery.

So, I really, really swear by my VED use.

Oh, and I got a Titan.

Hey Anton, it sounds like things are going really well! Not perfect maybe, but nothis is ever perfect.

I also have "dent" in my penis with my Titan, about halfway up my shaft on the left side. It's not visible, but you can feel it if you run your hand along that side. Not a big deal, it seems less pronounced the harder I pump up the implant. I think these are just natural wrinkles & bends in the cylinder material and a consequence of how they lay deflated, and the material has some degree of "memory" for them as it's inflated.

I also agree with you on the Titan's hardness -- it's obscene, in a good way. Whoever designed this implant was like "I don't want to make men as good as they were naturally, I want to turn them into anime-porn fuck demons!"

I really don't know what woman could comfortably handle an even average-sized Titan when inflated to the max (though I'm sure some do!). I don't even know if it would be comfortable for me to have sex like that.

21st day after implantation:

I inflate for an hour or a little more, twice a day. On the left side of my penis, where the surgeon mobilized tissue to access the upper part of the penis from the penoscrotal approach to dissect the scar tissue, a hard tension band has formed. It starts in the scrotum, wraps around the penis first, then upward, and extends to the upper part of the penis at the base, toward the pubic bone. It's like a wire is tied around the left side of the penis at the base. This is a post-operative growth, right where a dog's ear should be. Consequently, the fold of the cylinder has nowhere to go, and this growth has pushed the fold upward into the midsection of the penis. So, the fold is now on the left side, not on the side at the base, as it appears on the right, but at the top of the penis in its midsection. This is the main problem right now, because this hard, deflated ear presses directly on the neurovascular bundle, causing severe pain when standing or walking.

I contacted the surgeon yesterday. He told me it was post-operative, post-traumatic tissue swelling where the mobilization occurred and where he created a channel to access the scar tissue. He recommended continuing to pump for an hour, twice a day, but avoid massaging or pulling the area, as I had been doing previously. His recommendations were cold, hunger, and rest. So, last night, I simply began gently pumping everything and very carefully bending my penis at the base. Before that, I was pumping extremely hard and began pulling my penis in different directions, like the Perito exercise, massaging the tensor abdominis and stretching the collateral ligaments like strings. By the way, does everyone else experience this: when fully inflated, the collateral ligaments become taut like strings, preventing the penis from extending further?
I was, and still am, a bit concerned that this tensioner on the left side would scar over, leading to complications, but the surgeon assures me it should go away over time. It's important to remember that I didn't have a standard implant procedure, but rather a complex, reconstructive surgery, so to speak, after the intervention of those bastards who ligated my veins. And in the area where the surgeon worked on the scar tissue, all the tissue had already been altered, and lymphatic drainage was disrupted, which is why I now see this thing on the left side, which is really bothering me and bothering me.

As for growth, it's hard for me to estimate yet, as it's only been three weeks. And I've only been cycling for less than two weeks. I've probably only gained a couple of millimeters in length, as well as in girth. That thing on the left is still holding my penis back. Regarding girth, I can say this: when fully inflated, the girth is much smaller than when 50% inflated. Surprisingly, but true. When fully inflated, the Titan squeezes all the blood out of the penis. I tried masturbating and managed to achieve orgasm with partial inflation of about 30%. At this level of inflation, the sensations are pleasant, and the penis fills nicely with blood.

With daily cycling and full inflation, if I lie down, I experience almost no pain, but as soon as I stand up, I experience quite severe pain in the glans, perineum, shaft, and especially in the area where the scars were excised. It's simply impossible to walk or stand for long periods with a fully inflated implant.

The skin on the penis itself is still swollen. There's also swelling and, for now, complete numbness in the incision area, the lower part of the penis, and the area where the deflation button is located.

The surgeon managed to hide the pump behind my testicles so that when I inflate it to the maximum, it's almost completely unnoticeable. It's as if it's not even there. And this is considering my small scrotum.

Now, regarding the Titan itself: When fully inflated, it's so hard that this thing is definitely not for sex, but for going to Siberia and chopping down trees with your penis. I don't know what such hardness is for, because firstly, it's uncomfortable for me, secondly, there's no blood flow at this level of inflation (based on other guys' experiences here, it should get better with time, I know), and thirdly, at the moment, I can't imagine what kind of girl could withstand it. It'll be very painful. All the guys I've talked to inflate their Titan to 80% for sex.
When inflating, the pump still feels very hard. Sometimes better, sometimes worse. I hope it will soften with time. I do about 25 full pumps, and then add about 10 more partial ones over time. My reservoir is 125 ml. I was worried that even the one-touch Titan pump would make a croaking sound like a classic one, but now there's a barely noticeable sound of fluid flowing when the pump returns to its original position. And it's almost completely inaudible and not bothersome. I don't know how it will be in the future. The pump is quite small (I think an AMS would be more bulky), and I squeeze it with two fingers to inflate. But for someone untrained, it will be difficult; it requires a lot of pressure.

Now the worst things about the Titan, and specifically in my case:
I seriously think Coloplast should be sued (I'm surprised no one has done so yet) for calling their pump "one-touch" and marketing it as such. Because it's blatantly deceptive. This technology doesn't work with the One-Touch pump! I wrote a post about this before the implantation, when I met with an AMS representative and he had a Titan. Then I discovered that the MS-Pump deflates by pressing and holding the release button for 2-3 seconds. After that, you don't need to hold the button down. The One-Touch pump's release button, however, requires you to hold it down the entire time, and also squeeze the cylinders. It's also hard to find the release button on the Titan; it's hard to imagine how elderly people do it. Please tell me how you deflate your Titan, if you have a One-Touch pump. I think someone here mentioned doing some kind of tambourine dance, after which it supposedly deflates itself.
I'm not just saying this casually, but in comparison to the ms-pump at AMS. When I was at my surgeon's appointment, a guy I already knew came in for a checkup; he had an LGX implant installed in April of this year. When he came into the doctor's office, a nurse came out and asked me to come in too. This guy thought his distal end wasn't fully aerated (he also had distal cavernous fibrosis), which is why the glans was mobile. But it turned out to be fine, the apices are in place at the glans, and he was just confused because he has a large glans. His penis looks amazing both inflated and deflated. It looks much more natural and comfortable than the Titan. And when he pressed the release button, released it almost immediately, and his penis descended on its own, I finally realized the advantages of AMS were non-negotiable. Compared to Coloplast, it's like night and day.

I spent a long time choosing between CX and Titan. Ultimately, I decided to go with Titan, considering my unique, tragic case after vein ligation. Also, the fact that LGX is imported to our country with Inhibison, while CX is only available without Inhibison.

Now I realize that if I had chosen CX, I would have been driven crazy by the loss of girth and length, and I would have thought Titan would have been better at stretching my scar tissue. And also the lack of Inhibison, which is very important with cavernous fibrosis. Each has its pros and cons.

But everything would have been fine if it weren't for these terrifying dog ears, which currently hurt terribly and press on the tissue from the inside. Especially on the left. It's a real nightmare! I can't imagine how I'll live with this yet, and I'm hoping that the post-operative swelling on the left will go down, and that this dog ear on the side will at least become as prominent as the one on the right, and it won't hurt so much. I just hope it gets better with time.

Right now, my deflated Titan is pointing forward and won't go down properly. I'll also wait for it to get better. It feels like someone shoved a plastic Coke bottle into my penis, which wrinkles when I deflate the implant. It's incredibly unpleasant and causes great discomfort and pain, especially when deflated. That's why sometimes I don't even want to deflate it, because I know I have to press and hold that deflation button while my penis gradually turns into a crumpled Coke bottle.
How I'll live my daily life with this is completely unclear. And especially unclear is how I'll continue to do my cyclic sports: running, road cycling, and skiing. I can't imagine my life without it!

I won't even mention having sex anytime soon. Sex? I just want to lie there all the time, not get up or walk around because of the pain and discomfort. Because of the feeling of this hard plastic in my penis, I can't lift it up, sideways, or bend it, as it causes pain. Now I slightly regret not choosing the CX. With it, both the erection firmness and probably the girth (which is what I was so worried about) would be on par with the Titan. When deflated, it would be much more comfortable to live with, and deflating it would also be much easier. Now, for those who doubt their personal opinion and the difference between the Ams and Coloplast, which no one clearly discusses here on the forum: inflating the soft silicone Ams cylinders and feeling them inside you as your soft penis turns hard, like during a natural erection, is probably much more enjoyable than inflating this plastic dildo called the Titan. But here we are. Both implants have their pros and cons. I'll get used to it and hope it gets better with time.
I was prepared for a complicated surgery with postoperative surprises and a very difficult and lengthy recovery period. Now I'm prepared to be patient and wait as long as it takes. I hope all this improves so I can return to my normal life and finally start having sex.

While I was writing this, my implant was inflated. Now I see that two hours have passed.

Yesterday I was helping my dad assemble a closet and couldn't even stand for 15 minutes. Today, I spent about four hours assembling the dresser myself, and things were much better. I'm still walking with a bowed leg.

I take Ketorol at night, which really helps reduce the pain and helps me sleep. Today, I also added ketoprofen as an anti-inflammatory, and that also provided relief.

Today, my surgeon posted my case on his Telegram channel, where he explains that he had a very great responsibility when he operated on me, since of all his patients, I am the most well-read and knowledgeable in terms of implant surgery. I have consulted with all the world's leading implantologists, I constantly operate according to the meta-analyses I have studied, and I can lecture many implant surgeons. But I must admit that during this time, I have truly studied all the available literature on implant surgery, spoken with all the leading surgeons, and probably already with a couple hundred guys with implants.

Anton, have you tried keeping the implant slightly inflated to eliminate the dog ears? That seems to be the standard answer most Titan users come up with.

I don’t have significant dog ears, but then my implant never fully deflates. Because he wanted to make sure my 28cm implant had enough fluid, Hakky sightly overfilled the reservoir to 130ml. I mentioned to him it doesn't get fully deflated and he agreed with my assessment that some of that extra fluid is not fully returning to the reservoir or sneaking back into the cylinders. It’s not a big deal, and probably why I don’t have the sharp ears many do.
