How much did your surgeon leave your implant inflated after surgery?

My doctor left my implant 60% inflated for two weeks.

At my first follow-up appointment, he fully deflated the implant and told me to leave it alone until my next appointment, six weeks later.

When I went back for my second follow-up appointment, he taught me how to inflate and deflate the implant.

the model of implant you have will make a difference. LGX can lengthen from its deflated state when one infates. The CX has less lengthening (depending entirely on folds in the material rathern than the weave plus folds) and the Coloplast Titan is kind of stiff all my itself (softening up over the initial weeksmonths)

What implant do you have?

I have an LGX and my surgeon left me at 80%, but that felt like the head of my penis was being crushed in a vice, so he deflated to abut 70% the day after surgery. At that point I was unable to measure my length, but think I had full length, but just not full stiffness. When I ws able to inflate fully and measure, I found that my inflated length was exactly the same as my immediately pre-op length. I had experienced no loss of length from my youth. I did not have the foresight to measure my girth. I did use a VED (thereapeutically, not for sex) for more than a year pre-op tight up until the day before surgery so as not to lose any size when erections finally quit entirely.
