Several studies have described the negative psychological effects of the loss or absence of a testicle or testicles. These and other studies have suggested that testicular implants (also known as Testicular Prosthesis) lead to an improved sense of body image and are associated with a high levels of patient satisfaction and self improvement.
The Elist Prosthesis
Dr. Elist, has patented and developed a prosthesis that can be implanted into the scrotum on an outpatient basis. These are made from the same material used in artificial testicles (which are implanted in men who have lost a testicle from disease or injury), and are quite safe, being manufactured from a medical-grade silicone, which has been successfully used for this purpose for over a decade. Rejection is rare.
The Elist prosthesis is crescent-shaped. The concave portion fits perfectly against the testicle (they come in pairs, one fitted against each testicle) at least doubling its size. The prosthesis is securely implanted in the "Tunica Vaginalis" (a thin protective membrane surrounding the testicle), and it conveniently comes in three sizes: medium, large and extra-large; as a result, patients are able to customize their degree of enlargement.
The surgery is performed on an outpatient basis and takes less than an hour.
