Written Patient Experiences

"I have found Dr. Elist and his staff to be professional, very courteous and extremely helpful. Dr. Elist has personally taken my calls or responded to questions outside of normal working hours and has kept me fully informed of what to expect and has advised me on every question I raised. He has also gone out of his way to help with items such as following up on me once in my hotel room on a previous procedure and arranging transport back to my hotel after surgery. I have no hesitation in recommending Dr. Elist and his team."
"The staff at Dr. Elist’s office are very professional and helpful. They answered all my questions and put me at ease. As far as the implant surgery, I found it to be very easy with minimal pain, and no “down time” to me. This was amazing! I am very satisfied with the results, and I know I will be back to a normal, enjoyable sex life with this implant!"
"One year after experience: The first few days were challenging and the healing process took a few weeks. After a few weeks, I never felt any discomfort. It’s been a year, and looking back, I can say it was a great decision having come to visit Dr. Elist. The thickness is something you see right away. I gained two inches immediately. The length takes time, it’s normal because your member has been “worked on” but it just gets better month to month. Doctor Elist and his staff have taken the time before, during, and after the surgery in order to make sure I’m taken care of. I love to see when my partner says “wow that’s big”. It is somewhat of an ego booster. Overall great experience, I’m happy with the results."
"My experience with Dr. Elist and his team has been outstanding. They went out of their way to make the process as comfortable as possible. Dr. Elist explained the procedure in detail and made it easy for me to discuss a difficult topic. The procedure was literally less than an hour. I don’t remember any of it!! Had some soreness that night, but was able to sleep fine. My follow up check up went well, and Dr. Ali was extremely helpful in talking about post-op instructions and expectations. I’d recommend this procedure to anyone who has thought about all the possibilities of penile changes. I would like to thank Dr. Elist and staff for such a smooth enriched experience. Looking forward to the next 6-12 months!"

Penile Enlargement FAQs

Will there be evidence of the Himplant penis enlargement surgery? Will it be noticeable?

No, the implant is designed to be completely discreet. The surgical procedure does not make any open incisions on the penis, opting instead for a concealed incision within the scrotal area. This incision typically fades over time and can be further obscured by pubic hair. Patients who had the procedure report that their partners, who were unfamiliar with their anatomy before the surgery, are unable to tell that there is an implant present. However, we strongly recommend open and honest communication with your partner about the procedure before making any decisions.

Will it be possible to receive the largest Himplant size?

The optimal implant size for you will be determined by the physician during your consultation, considering your individual anatomy and safety. Every Himplant is customized in the operating room to deliver the best possible outcome for each patient while prioritizing safety.

Are there any effective methods for non-surgical penis enlargement?

Unfortunately, no non-surgical method for penis enlargement has proven effective. While various methods like pills, pumps, or jelqing are marketed for this purpose, we haven't found any evidence to support their claims. In fact, some of these methods can even be harmful.

With the Himplant penile implant, will I always be hard or erect?

No, penile implants do not cause constant erections. They work seamlessly with your natural state, whether flaccid or erect.

How much does the Himplant penis enlargement procedure cost?

The specific cost of your individual penis enlargement procedure will be determined during your personalized consultation with a Patient Consultant. This detailed discussion ensures transparency and tailored pricing to fit your unique needs.

How long will I have to refrain from engaging in sexual activity following the Himplant procedure?

To ensure optimal healing and prevent complications, sexual abstinence is required until medical clearance is granted. This typically occurs within a timeframe of 6 to 8 weeks, but individual circumstances may necessitate a longer or shorter recovery period.

What are the potential risks and complications with Himplant surgery?

Like any other surgery, there are potential risks and complications that will be discussed with patients in advance of any procedure. We have historically seen low complication rates, and we will work with you to minimize risk by explaining the post-operative instructions in detail. Potential risks and complications include infection, swelling/inflammation, suture detachment, pain, bleeding, and the need for implant removal, which has potential risks and complications.
