Hi,
I am new to FT and am very close to going ahead with an implant.I had Prostrate Removal surgery 5 years ago and have tried everything else and am about to press the button implant surgery. I am struggling to make up my mind if I should opt for a Colorplast or AMS implant. I understand that the Colorplast is more rigid but the downside is how comfortable it is when deflated.
Questions are:
Do both the AMS and Colorplast get more comfortable with time/How long ?
Are you ever able forget you have this inside you after a period of time or are you always conscious when carrying out the usual day to day normal activities?
If more uncomfortable when deflated do the plus points of the Colorplast Titan outweigh the comfort level of the AMS?
Is it possible to speak with someone who may have had both fitted. If not one or two of each ?
I am based in the UK but could make a call on Teams/Zoom etc if that works. Don't need to see just talk?
Thank you in advance

I have the Coloplast for 4 months now, it’s great. It’s a little on the big size when flaccid but nothing too crazy. It was very big at first but kind of softened. It’s definitely worth it.
