Younger patient choosing implant (Eid / Titan) – concern about concealment

[Lawrence13]

I’m scheduled for an implant with Dr. Eid on April 14. As many know, he primarily uses the Coloplast Titan.

I’m trying to make the most informed decision possible and would really value input from guys who have lived with these devices.

About me:

• about to be 38. Active social life in nyc
• Mild unilateral fibrosis (left side) from prior injections
• 7-7.2inch length with injections/ 5 inch girth at base, under 5 further up the shaft due to scar tissue.
• socially active/ will be single life dating after implant.
• Most of my life is spent in the flaccid state
. 6’1 height. 175-180 pound lean build with lean legs. Baggy cloths don’t look good on me…. Especially pants.

My main concern is everyday concealment, not rigidity.

I’ve read that Titan can sit more semi-rigid when flaccid, which can make it more noticeable in clothing. That worries me. Some young guys on here have gone so far as to replace their functioning titans with ams because the Titan flaccid bothered them so much. I don’t want to fix ED and then feel self-conscious in daily life trying to hide it. Problem is Eid is all Titan. Didn’t even discuss ams with me.

Questions:
1. For Titan users, how noticeable is it day to day?
2. Does concealment become easy over time, or is it always something you think about?
3. For AMS (LGX/CX) users, is the flaccid state actually more natural?
4. If you were in your early 30s again, would you choose the same device?
5. Has anyone chosen AMS over Titan specifically for concealment, even with some fibrosis?

Not trying to start a brand debate. Just want honest, real-world feedback before surgery.

Appreciate any insight, including regrets if you have them.

Hey Lawrence - I know your post is tailored more towards the IPP / Titan guys - but I actually was just posting a bit about concealment today in my MPP journal and figured its relevant here.

My Rigi10 malleable hangs at about 4.5 o clock naturally, and closer to 5 with tighter underwear / compression boxers. I’m at 9 weeks healing - the compression boxers are admittedly not comfortable after awhile. But when I combine the compression boxers with high rise trousers, my implant is pretty much COMPLETELY concealed.

I’ve posted about higher rise trousers in my journal a bit - they are generally wider in thighs and groin due to the cut and how they drape. This is VERY different from just loose + baggy pants. My trousers look great and you can still take them into the tailor to taper the legs a bit below the knee for a more modern look.

I shove my dick down the left or right leg (I like to alternate throughout the day, it makes it more comfortable right now switching it up due to the tighter underwear). Then, I move my wallet to the pocket closest to my dick. Completely concealed.

I wear the Taza from Casatlantic - they aren’t cheap but they are INCREDIBLY comfortable and I’d wager that with an IPP + some supportive underwear + a higher rise pant, you’d likely be in very good shape.

This is what the cut looks like, pulled this image from Casatlantic’s model photos. You’ll notice these are actually a flat-front pant, no pleats or anything. Pleats would make the pant even MORE comfy and even easier to conceal an implant, but not everyone likes that style as it can look a bit old fashioned to some guys.
