Every year, millions of men worldwide suffer from erectile dysfunction, and common medical treatments such as Viagra or injections are simply ineffective if these men suffer from severe vascular diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, spinal cord injuries, or have experienced cancer treatment for the prostate or bladder.

For these men, urologists often use penile prostheses as a last resort. However, patients are frequently dissatisfied with this treatment because they can often experience losses in the penile length and girth after the surgery.

For the first time, Dr. Elist and his colleagues presented a novel technique using a soft silicone implant under the penile skin to reverse penile shortening and narrowing after this surgery. In fact, men who use this novel technique not only regained lost size, but gained an additional length of 2 to 2.9 cm (0.8 to 1.2 inches) and girth of 2.7 to 3.9 cm (1.1 to 1.5 inches).

This one hour, out-patient procedure is considered safe and effective, and the improvements are immediate and long lasting. "In a world of pumps, pills, gels, and other potentially dangerous methods of increasing penile length and girth, many men have long sought a trusted way to safely enhance their genital size and appearance. This unique approach is being used to help men with genital limitations and/or deformities, as well as others with emotional and self-esteem issues," says Dr. Elist.

This patented and compliant prosthetic device and procedure have been developed by Dr. James Elist, a board certified and widely renowned urologist from Beverly Hills, California who specializes in infertility, impotency, and genital reconstruction. Dr. Elist has published books, including 'Put Impotency In Your Past', and is acknowledged by the U.S. Surgeon General with proving the link between cigarette smoking and impotency, as well as other diseases. In addition to his extensive medical practice, Dr. Elist continues to treat numerous professional athletes and celebrities in addition to his charitable medical work.
