Inflatable Penile Implant Review at 3 Years Post-op Phalloplasty

At 3 years post-op from having the erectile implant pump device fitted, as the final stage of my transgender RFF phalloplasty surgery. I update about how I am getting used to having an implant and gaining confidence using the erectile device on my own and during intimacy. I also talk about concerns with the lifespan of the erectile device, and worries about the waiting lists at St Peters' Andrology clinic here in the UK who perform phalloplasty, when it comes to needing the erectile implant device fixed or replaced.

Having a Trans brother, I can understand your struggles, what with the invasiveness of phalloplasty! I can empathise to a certain extent, obviously not that much, but I looked after my Bro for 6 weeks, as anyone who's had it done knows it's a long and arduous process to heal and get used to. I only say this as I have always had enormous respect for any transgender person who has to go under the knife to get the body that feels right to them mentally... 😁

[@sheyaj1268]

I don't usually comment on videos, but I commend you, your honestly, and your bravery for speaking about something so personal. You're an amazing human for helping people understand your journey, and what others can expect in theirs. I have great respect for you.

congrats! I'm still very back and forth myself on bottom surgery but it's very nice to have your open experiences as a reference

Thanks my friend! And thats normal when it comes to lower surgery, it is not an easy decision at all. If I can ever help, or if you are looking for more resources, do pop over to my website finlaygames.com

My dear Finn, you are a so special man! I love your positivity your way to take the life, this is the reason you deserve all the happyness. It’s not fair that, after so many sacrifices, pain, adaptations, the erectil device is not forever, but there will be other ways, I see your smarty eyes!!!🤗 A kiss !!

Bless your heart. Life is largely unfair, we all get dealt rough hands, but how we deal with those is what gives us a good quality of life! Huge hugs to you!

When people ask about lower surgery I te them how it works and then say I will never need viagra when I get old. 😅 let's say some blokes are very jealous.

@@FinnTheInfinncible It has helped me so much. I came out as Trans within the past month, and your videos armed me with so much information, it's been able to help guide me through conversations with my family, friends, medical providers and councilors. I am so appreciative. It's been especially nice, that you started this transition in your 30's, which doesnt' make me feel so odd starting this at 30 years old, instead of a teenager.

Im trans (ftm) and i hope to start testosterone soon and eventually get top surgery and i was considering getting bottom surgery but i was very nervous/reluctant but after this video im much less nervous and much more excited now i just have to convince my boyfriend

[@LEDC5000]

This was so interesting. And you seem like such a cool guy! ☺️ I’m here because I’m learning about penile implants. Only 37, male from birth, hetero, just had a lot of trouble with ED. At the point where I’m fed up. But I’m assuming you got an AMS or Coloplast. You should be reassured that the standard life for the vast majority is >8 years. I’m surprised that only one centre can tend to these issues for you. That’s so annoying! Could someone expert in the field such as Dr David Ralph not help? I’m sorry for my ignorance. But all the best to you!!

[@FinnTheInfinncible]

Thank you for watching, and for your kind words! Sprry you are having issues with ED, these impants are a great alternative! I have the AMS 700, easy to use and comfortable when flacid too. I reviewed it here if it helps :finlaygames.com/phalloplasty-final-stage-ams-implant-review/ Dr Ralph is one of the surgeons who does lower surgery for trans people. The trouble is, there are huge waiting lists at the moment. Im hoping my device lasts a long time, and that by the time I need it replaced, the waiting lists will be shorter!

[@LEDC5000]

@@FinnTheInfinncible Thanks for your reply. I have no idea how much it might be privately but that could always be an option too? Thanks for the link! I’ll give it a watch!

[@thoraneh7365]

You're so educational finn, i have no need to really learn all of this but i want to support those in the T section of our community. I hope you dont mind me asking but when you say the bone grows over the anchor, when you get it replaced how do they like get it out of the bone? Sorry if thats too personal x Its also kind of crazy they discharge you from the gender clinic, with something like a phalloplasty or hormones which need regular checks or 'maintence' you would think they would look after you long term :(

[@martyreaves4955]

I have a friend that I talk with frequently about my transition, (she has an extensive medical background, including a master's in psychology) and she explains so much about cis men having a relationship with their penises, and that transmen have to take the time to develop one too. I feel sooo fortunate and blessed to have her in my life.

[@FinnTheInfinncible]

Thank you Thoran, you are incredibly kind and I really value your allyship. Regarding the anchor point. That gets attatched to the pubic bone, and its the attatchment that the bone then heals around. If an entire pump needed to be fixed, then I assume it would just be detatched from that anchor point and a new pump attached. And I agree, the system here, of discharging people, makes no sense! There are many times when having the expertise of a gender clinic would help, but as Im no longer a patient, I cannot request their help! We need an entire system overhaul!!!

[@FinnTheInfinncible]

You have a wise friend, and you are lucky to have her!

[@xievisthedragon]

Damn, such a short shelf life on that implant. Sounds well worth it though. Also sounds like after you get one you should just make an appointment for it breaking the next day if the wait times are that bad in the UK O.o

[@AnthonyShaw-ty9pi]

Which one did you get? The AMS 700🤔 Thought the lifespan was 10 to 15 years, or longer? And yes, a 3 year wait, if it breaks😬 Now that SUCKS

[@FinnTheInfinncible]

Yes I have the AMS 700 MS, the lifespan can be anything from 5 to 10 years, the lifespan is improving with each model as the materials improve. But with the waiting lists and everything else....it absoultely does suck! Ive just made an update actually! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gaqZmKukbcaGmtE

[@garrett7101]

Hey Finn.. Thanks for the video. I am having the erectile device put in Feb. 23rd. I was wondering if you had any presurgery or postsurgery advice? Thanks

[@stonesdon]

Hi Finn. When your device breaks you Have to get re referred to the gender clinic ? You can’t just get referred straight for surgery?

[@FinnTheInfinncible]

Hi my friend. No I wont need a referal to a GIC just a referral for surgery, but the list is long! Im not sure I would get it repaired now to be honest!

[@stonesdon]

@@FinnTheInfinncible The system needs a serious overhaul. How can there be 1 hospital in a country of 66 million people. Hopefully things improve before you need to take that step

[@FinnTheInfinncible]

@@stonesdon I completely agree my friend. That's why I share about this, it needs to be acknowledged how much pain and distress our broken system causes, and what a huge difference it makes to our quality of life when we can access surgery in a timely manner

[@goldnamaterasu]

I'm personally much more interested in the inflatable device than the constant rod. my only question is about how long it stays erect. I would be so worried that it would pump up than only stay for a few seconds, that's an issue I have using a pump+pre op parts.

[@FinnTheInfinncible]

I felt the same way about the rod. As for how long the pump stays inflated, as long as you want! Ive never experienced it becoming deflated until I push the button. Hope that helps!

[@charliestrickland6194]

I've been trying to research why Drs only use fat/tissue/skin for phallo when cismales have muscle there also. And seems I read somewhere that there is another vital part missing but I can't find that article again. Grrrr. Any thoughts on why more isn't done to actually replicate function and not just aesthetics?

[@FinnTheInfinncible]

Hey my friend. There is no muscle in a penis, but there is erectile tissue, which unfortunately cannot be replicated yet, but I have seen reports that they are trying to do this. There have been experiments with cis men to repair/ transplant erectile tissue, but it would be so much more difficut with a phallo penis, one day they will do it though! www.phallo.net/penis-transplants.htm

It’s scary to me because you can’t find any videos of what it looks like after surgery stages are done. I do not want it looking like a pig in the blanket. It’s a big dysphoria for me..

I completely understand that worry! I can promise you though, it will not look like a pig in a blanket! I have written a book about my phalloplasty journey, and I also have some reveal videos, you can find both of those here : ko-fi.com/finlaygames/shop

[@Autumnroses123]

Finn why don’t you just book to have a consultation now, whilst it’s still working, then by the time you finally get an appointment the chances are it will likely need replacing? Xxx

[@FinnTheInfinncible]

It's a good idea in theory, but there is no way of knowing when this device will fail! I am however going to contact them as the service is being changed and I want to make sure I'm still on their list for when I do need to have a consult
