RIGICON IPP

Postby proctor » Tue May 26, 2020 7:39 pm

Hi,
There are so many discussion about Boston Scientific and Colopast products but there are hardly anybody who has voiced opinion about Rigicon. Is it only because its new? Or the efficacy of the product is still under scrutiny?

Very simple answer. If you're talking about semi rigid implants. Semi rigid's are actually a very old developement. My father in law had one 30 years ago. In my opinion the malleable style is just a variation. Despite sounding very attractive, they have what some men consider to be some serious side effects. They are basically always hard. This makes them akward to conceal under clothes. Hugging people can be a bit weird. I would advise you to not let your kids or grandkids sit on your lap.
They are designed for men that lack the hand strenght to control the traditional pump or have hand arthritis. To a man that has had ED for a long time. A perpetual erection may sound appealing. It's more like being a teenager with random erections all day long. Except you might be viewed as a creepy old man instead.
My opinion only. If you don't fit into the selective group that they are designed for. Don't get one. Just my opinion.

I believe the OP is referring to a Rigicon "Inflatable" (thus the "IPP" in the subject). The brand is Rigicon Infla10 as opposed to the Rigi10 for their malleable offering.

There is also the new Rigicon Infla 10 AX that will show up in the states in the near future. I am not sure why the more popular surgeons do not use Rigicon inflatables. Maybe the Rigicon pumps/valves are more dependable or maybe not...
