Penile Rehabilitation is a structured clinical program designed to support the maintenance of penile tissue health and the recovery of erectile function following trauma, surgery (such as radical prostatectomy), or as part of long-term erectile dysfunction management. This proactive protocol is focused on supporting blood flow and oxygenation to the penile tissue during the healing process.
Book an AppointmentRehabilitation protocols are personalised to the patient’s condition and stage of recovery, often involving multiple components:
| Component | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Pharmacological | Low-dose oral medication or injection therapy to promote blood flow and tissue oxygenation. |
| Mechanical Devices | Use of vacuum erection devices (VED) to physically draw blood into the penis, enhancing tissue elasticity and tissue oxygenation. |
| Lifestyle Coaching | Personalised advice on exercise, diet, and risk factor modification to improve vascular and hormone health. |
| Monitoring | Regular follow-up and diagnostic testing (such as Doppler Ultrasound) to objectively measure functional recovery progress. |
At Kalix, rehabilitation is considered an integrated component of the clinical management plan, aimed at supporting long-term functional recovery, particularly within our cancer survivorship protocols.
It is strongly recommended for men following radical prostatectomy. After surgery, the loss of regular erections leads to reduced oxygen delivery to the erectile tissue, which can cause long-term structural changes and permanent damage if not actively addressed. It may also be recommended for men with vascular ED undergoing other treatments.
Yes. Post-implant rehabilitation is essential for the full healing and utilization of the device. It helps with pain management, maximises cylinder expansion, and ensures optimal long-term function.
