His dick didn't shrivel up disappear and die. It's all there still. It just needs a little more support to get back to form.
This study supports that out of 342 patients total, only two of them did not increase their stretched flaccid sizes after implant - all other 340 did.Because of the aggressive cylinder sizing and postoperative penile rehabilitation inflation protocol, all of the patients, except for two, experienced an increase (approximately 1 cm) in the stretched penile length. To prevent penile shortening, concomitant surgical interventions, such as a sliding technique, suprapubic lipectomy, suspensory ligament release, and ventral phalloplasty, have been developed and used [11, 12].

And this straight-up says implant preserves or increases stretched lengths for the majority of patients.PI surgery does not decrease penile size compared to the preoperative stretched measure but preserves or increases it for the great majority of patients. Men having an IPP are likely to witness a more substantial length increase than those with a MPP. The outcome of PI surgery was not affected by co-morbidities such as diabetes, HTN or PD
...The results of our study suggest that the AMS 700 LGX IPP could be used to prevent penile shortening in patients undergoing IPP implantation. Furthermore, erectile function and patient satisfaction were improved excellently.

And even a youtube video explaining it right at 1:47: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z24GRfTGPTA
Why do people here not think it does?
Get a VED and start using it now. Get an implant later.
Thanks for your help!
