Restore a natural look and feel with a silicone testicular implant — for a missing, surgically removed, or undescended testicle. Board-certified urologist in Seomyeon, Busan from $2,500. Dr. Moon Hyeon-chang has 15+ years of genital reconstruction experience.

Losing a testicle — to cancer, torsion, injury, or being born without one — affects not just appearance but confidence and body image. Learn from Dr. Moon Hyeon-chang how a silicone testicular prosthesis restores a natural look and feel in a short, safe procedure. 15+ years of experience, explained in clear English.
Dr. Moon personally performs each implant at our Busan Seomyeon practice. A prosthesis is purely for appearance and feel — it does not produce hormones or sperm — but for many men it makes a meaningful difference to confidence. Honest discussion of expectations is part of every consultation.


A soft silicone implant is placed into the scrotum through a small incision — a short, low-risk outpatient procedure that restores natural appearance and symmetry.

A testicular prosthesis restores symmetry and feel after loss or absence of a testicle. These are the common situations.
Following orchiectomy for testicular cancer, a prosthesis restores natural appearance and symmetry.
When a testicle is lost to torsion or trauma, an implant restores the balanced appearance.
A congenitally absent or non-viable undescended testicle leaves an empty scrotum that an implant fills.
When both are absent or removed, bilateral implants restore a natural scrotal appearance.
A testicular prosthesis is a soft silicone implant sized to match the natural side. It is placed in the scrotum through a small incision in a quick, low-risk procedure.
The implant is sized to match the remaining natural testicle (or chosen size for bilateral cases) for symmetry.
Matching size is key to a natural result.
A small incision is made — usually in the groin or upper scrotum — to create a pocket for the implant.
Incision is hidden in a natural skin crease.
A pocket is created in the scrotum and the silicone implant is positioned to sit naturally.
Correct positioning gives a natural hang and feel.
The implant may be gently fixed to prevent riding up, ensuring it settles in the correct position.
Fixation prevents migration upward.
Modern implants are soft medical-grade silicone (or saline-filled), designed to feel close to natural.
KFDA-approved implants only.
A short outpatient procedure under local or general anesthesia with same-day discharge.
Quick recovery, day-surgery setting.
Planning is simple but individual — confirming the scrotum is ready, choosing implant size, and timing relative to any prior treatment.
Review of how the testicle was lost or absent, prior treatment, and your goals for appearance.
Assessment of scrotal skin, space, and the natural side to plan implant size and pocket.
Confirming oncology or injury healing is complete and the area is ready for an implant.
Implant size chosen to match, anesthesia selected, and the short recovery explained.
Setting honest expectations matters. A prosthesis restores appearance and feel — not function. These three points clarify its role.
Dr. Moon ensures every patient understands what an implant achieves so the result meets expectations.
Recovery is generally quick and uncomplicated. These steps protect the implant and support healing.
Take it easy for the first 3–5 days while swelling settles around the implant.
Wear snug, supportive underwear to hold the implant in position while healing.
Complete the prescribed course to protect the implant from infection.
Avoid sexual activity and strenuous exercise for ~2–3 weeks.
Avoid heavy lifting and cycling early on to prevent displacing the implant.
WhatsApp photo updates let Dr. Moon confirm position and healing after you fly home.
A testicular prosthesis in Busan starts from $2,500 for a single implant. Bilateral implants (both sides) range $3,000–$4,000.
All prices include consultation, the implant, the procedure, and 6-month WhatsApp follow-up.
No. A testicular prosthesis is purely for appearance and feel — it restores a natural, symmetric look but does not produce testosterone or sperm. If you need hormone replacement, that is managed separately, and Dr. Moon can advise.
Modern silicone implants are sized to match your natural side and feel close to a real testicle to the touch. The result is a natural, symmetric appearance. It is not identical to a natural testicle but is convincing for everyday life.
Yes — it is a short, low-risk outpatient procedure. The main risks are infection, implant displacement, or rarely the need for removal, all uncommon. Dr. Moon uses KFDA-approved implants and a careful technique to minimize these.
Once the area has fully healed and, for cancer cases, oncology treatment is complete and cleared. This is often a few months after the original surgery. Dr. Moon confirms readiness during consultation.
Plan 5–7 days: consultation, the short procedure, early recovery, and a follow-up before flying. Subsequent healing is simple and monitored via WhatsApp.
