Vacuum Therapy Device

Vacuum therapy devices cause a penile erection by creating a partial vacuum. This action draws blood to the penis causing engorging and enlargement.

The devices have three components:

  • A plastic cylinder, where the penis is placed

  • A pump that draws air out of the cylinder

  • An elastic band placed around the base of the penis to maintain a full erection

Once the elastic band is placed around the base of the penis, the cylinder is then removed to allow sexual intercourse. The elastic band will maintain the erection until removed (the band must be removed within thirty minutes.)

Benefits of Vacuum Therapy

Vacuum therapy restores blood flow to the penis by creating negative vacuum pressure to create an erection.
