Testicular prosthesis implant in Busan.
A missing or absent testicle — after cancer surgery, atrophy, injury or from birth — can be quietly restored with a natural-feeling implant. A board-certified urologist places a KFDA/FDA-approved prosthesis, sized and positioned to match the other side, restoring a normal look and feel. It's about wholeness and confidence, not function — and we're honest about that distinction. From ₩3,600,000.
"Men who've lost a testicle rarely talk about how much it affects them — in the shower, in a relationship, in their own head. A prosthesis won't make hormones or sperm, and I say that plainly. What it does is restore a normal look and feel, and for most men that's exactly what they were missing."
— Dr. Moon Hyeon-chang, Director
Why a prosthesis, and which type.
Four common reasons men choose a prosthesis — restored with one of two approved implant types.
After orchiectomy
Following removal for testicular cancer or torsion, a prosthesis restores symmetry and helps men feel whole again.
Atrophy
A testicle that has shrunk significantly from injury, infection or other causes can be matched to the healthy side.
Congenital absence
A testicle absent or undescended from birth can be addressed in adulthood for a natural, balanced appearance.
Trauma loss
After traumatic loss, a prosthesis restores the natural look and feel that matter for confidence and intimacy.
The implant, step by step.
An outpatient procedure under local anesthesia with sedation — sized to match your other side.
Sizing & choice
Dr. Moon measures the healthy side and helps you choose between an anatomical saline or silicone-gel implant for the closest natural match.
Anesthesia
Local anesthesia with sedation keeps you comfortable and fully outpatient — no general anesthesia needed for most cases.
Discreet placement
The prosthesis is placed through a small, hidden incision (often in the groin crease) into a pocket within the scrotum.
Position & fix
It's positioned to sit and move naturally, matched to the other side, then secured so it stays in place.
Discharge & aftercare
You go home the same day with supportive underwear, clear wound-care and a direct WhatsApp line.
Restores look & feel — not function.
A testicular prosthesis is about wholeness, symmetry and confidence. It restores the natural appearance and weight of a testicle, which is what most men are missing after a loss. It does not produce testosterone or sperm — that's an honest, important distinction.
If hormone levels are a concern after losing a testicle, that's assessed separately and managed with hormone support if needed. The prosthesis and the hormonal question are two different things, and we treat them as such.
Good candidate, or not.
Likely a good fit
- You've lost a testicle to cancer, trauma or torsion
- A testicle has significantly atrophied
- One was absent or undescended from birth
- You want restored symmetry and confidence
Worth discussing first
- Expecting restored hormones or fertility → that's separate
- Active scrotal infection → treated before implanting
- Very recent orchiectomy → timing is assessed
- Low testosterone too → checked and managed alongside
What your quote includes.
All-inclusive, direct-pay, KRW. One figure, confirmed after sizing at consultation.
Testicular prosthesis
The figure quoted at consultation includes the implant — no separate device fee. Hormone assessment, if needed, is quoted separately.
Four points for settling in.
Recovery is straightforward — supporting the area helps the implant settle naturally.
Support & rest
Wear supportive underwear and rest. Mild swelling and tenderness are normal and settle over the first week.
Keep clean
Follow wound-care closely and avoid nicotine, which slows healing of the small incision.
Pause intimacy
Abstain and avoid heavy lifting for the advised window so the pocket heals and the implant settles in position.
Natural feel
The implant softens into a natural position and feel. Dr. Moon confirms healing via WhatsApp photo updates.
Feel whole again — discuss it discreetly.

About testicular prosthesis.
A testicular prosthesis starts from ₩3,600,000, all-inclusive. The figure covers sizing, the KFDA/FDA-approved implant, anesthesia, theatre and follow-up — there is no separate device fee. Any hormone assessment, if needed, is quoted separately and confirmed at consultation.
No — and this is the honest, important distinction. A prosthesis restores the natural look, weight and feel of a testicle, which is what most men are missing after a loss. It does not produce testosterone or sperm. If hormone levels are a concern, that is assessed and managed separately.
An anatomical saline implant and a silicone-gel implant, both KFDA/FDA-approved. Dr. Moon measures your healthy side and helps you choose the type that gives the closest natural match in size, weight and feel.
The implant is sized to match your other side and positioned to sit and move naturally within the scrotum. Over the weeks after surgery it softens into a natural position, and the small incision is placed discreetly so it's hard to notice.
For most cases it's an outpatient procedure under local anesthesia with sedation, taking around 30 minutes. You go home the same day with supportive underwear and aftercare instructions — no overnight stay.
Plan around 5–7 days, covering consultation, the procedure, early recovery and a follow-up before flying. The implant settles over 6–8 weeks, monitored via WhatsApp photo updates for up to 6 months.
Yes. The board-certified urologist who consults with you is the same doctor who performs your procedure and manages your follow-up — one specialist from start to finish. You are never passed to a junior doctor or a different surgeon.
