Preparing For A Penuma Implant Surgery
Men’s Health Tips
March 29, 2022
It takes a lot for someone to make the decision to receive a penuma implant surgery. Having surgery, even of the elective variety, is a serious matter, especially when considering the particular male organ in question. At Happy Urology, we are one of only ten urologists who are certified in performing the penuma implant procedure.
After going through the preliminary eligibility process and being pre-approved to receive the surgery, there are certain steps that a patient will need to take prior to the operation day.
A Month Prior to Your Penuma Implant Procedure
Presumably, if you have been cleared by Happy Urology once you completed the preliminary eligibility process, then there were no medical red flags raised. However, if you have gone through a medical ailment or episode, or if you receive regular care for a medical condition from a cardiologist or pulmonologist, you may be asked to procure a clearance letter from your specialist prior to being cleared for surgery. Our friendly, knowledgeable medical support staff will be more than happy to assist you in acquiring any necessary documentation.
Additionally, it is unlikely that an elective surgery like the penuma penis implant will be covered by insurance providers. If you are unsure if you are covered by your insurance company, contact our medical support staff, and they will aid you in figuring out if the costs of your penuma implant will be covered.
A Week Before Your Penuma Implant Procedure
Once you’re a week out from your penile implant surgery with the best Urologist in Miami, it’s time to make the final preparations. One thing that is a necessity prior to your surgery is to make sure that you have provided either of our Urologists or our medical support staff with a list of any medications you are currently taking, including any medications for underlying heart or lung issues, as well as any medication regimens that constitute “blood thinners,” i.e., aspirin, ibuprofen, or anticoagulants. Further, ironing out any travel logistics and securing a ride to and from the hospital is a MUST!
The Day Before Surgery
A few last-minute items you’ll need to make sure are taken care of prior to your penuma implant surgery are as follows:
- Purchase cotton underwear that will support your scrotum post-surgery during recovery.
- Buy multiple ice packs in order to reduce swelling in the area. Bags of frozen vegetables make for a viable substitute or alternative!
- If you have any special pillow, blanket, or comfort item, don’t forget to pack it!
