📌 India offers the same quality implants and skilled surgeons for up to 70% less than Western countries.
The cost also depends on the hospital’s location, the expertise of the surgeon, and the brand of the implant used. Cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, and Chennai have premier hospitals that may charge slightly higher fees, while tier-2 cities like Pune, Hyderabad, and Ahmedabad offer affordable yet high-quality care.
Additionally, top brands like AMS 700 and Coloplast Titan offer superior durability and a more natural experience but come at a premium price. Some hospitals provide all-inclusive medical tourism packages, covering everything from pre-surgery tests to post-operative care.

Step-by-Step Patient Journey
1. Pre-Surgery Consultation
📌 Online video consultation available
📌 Blood tests, ultrasound, and doctor evaluation
International patients often schedule virtual consultations before traveling to India. This allows them to understand the procedure, discuss implant options, and get medical clearance from an expert before making travel arrangements.
2. Surgery & Hospital Stay
📌 Duration: 1.5 to 2 hours
📌 Hospital Stay: 1 to 2 days
📌 Minimally invasive procedure for quicker recovery
Unlike other major urological surgeries, penile implant surgery requires only a short hospital stay. Patients typically receive pain management medications and post-operative care instructions before being discharged.
3. Recovery & Follow-Up
✔️ Week 1-2: Swelling and mild discomfort
✔️ Week 3-4: Stitches dissolve, and patient resumes work
✔️ Week 6-8: Full recovery; sexual activity resumes
