Induratio Penis Plastica (or IPP for short, also known as Peyronie’s disease) is an abnormal curvature of the penis which often causes considerable pain during an erection. An upwards curvature of the penis is most common, but it may also be bent to either side or downwards. Significant curvature of the penis and the associated pain make erections and particularly intercourse extremely uncomfortable and in serious cases even impossible for those affected. Alongside these direct consequences, Induratio Penis Plastica is almost always associated with consequent psychological problems such as depression, low self-esteem, irritability and resentment, and problems in a relationship.
The precise causes for the development of a penile curvature (IPP) have still not been fully clarified. The predominant current theory suggests that disruptions in the collagen metabolism play a key role in the development of plaque (scar tissue) in the penile tissue, which are ultimately responsible for the curvature. To be exact, in cases of Induratio Penis Plastica there is a build up of plaque in the skin of the erectile tissue, which is caused by an excessive production of connective tissue in the penis. This often leads to the penis itself becoming painfully curved.
Since the precise causes of IPP are still not certain, and it therefore cannot be treated causally, various medications and procedures attempt to alleviate the symptoms of IPP, and in particular to slow down the progress of the ailment (e.g. shock wave therapy, iontophoresis). In serious cases of Induratio Penis Plastica, i.e. if the person is suffering from severe psychological strain, an operation is the last resort in order to help the affected person to return to a having a satisfactory sex life. It was not previously possible to reverse a penile curvature completely through any method of treatment.
As previously mentioned, even resorting to an operation cannot solve the ailment by itself. But it can help the sufferer to return to having a normal sex life by alleviating the worst symptoms, and can thus help to reduce any potential psychological problems that may have arisen. Many of the traditional surgical treatment methods necessitate a shortening of the penis, which can to some extent lead to new psychological problems. In contrast, genuinely effective methods of removing scar tissue have proved to be uneconomical for the clinics that carry them out, with the result that these techniques are unfortunately very rarely used.
There is a genuine alternative to a mechanical procedure that stretches the penis, which presents an excellent complement to existing therapies for treating Induratio Penis Plastica. Mechanical elongation processes can be particularly effective in reducing penile curvatures and have no side effects. Existing treatment options are not impaired in any way.
By stretching the penis for several hours each day with PHALLOSAN® forte, and by pulling in the opposite direction to the curvature of the penis, the penis can be permanently straightened and returned to its normal sexual functionality.
The enclosed measuring template will help you to determine the correct size of vacuum bell. Finding the right size is important for a secure hold, but also in ensuring the device is comfortable to wear.
The vacuum bell is placed over the glans of the penis and the sleeve is rolled down along the length of the penis. The vacuum around the glans is generated by the pump.
The movable tension clip is securely connected to the connector point between the bell and the pump. The tension clip facilitates the transfer of tension from the belt to the shaft of the penis.
The belt is worn around the waist and held in place by a plastic ring attached to the shaft. The other end is connected to the tension clip, while the tension is controlled from the belt.
