A subcutaneous implant is an effective and long-lasting method of contraception, implanted under the skin of the arm and gradually releases the hormone progesterone to prevent ovulation and change the nature of the uterine lining. It is a suitable option for women who want to prevent pregnancy for a long time without the need for daily follow-up. At the Horizon Medical Care Center in Ibri, We install the implant using the latest medical methods, providing a comprehensive consultation before the procedure and periodic follow-up after the procedure to ensure comfort and effectiveness.
Implant Placement Procedure
We perform the implant installation in quick and safe steps:
-
Initial consultation: The medical history is discussed and the suitability of the implant as a contraceptive method is ascertained for the patient.
-
Appointment of the Implant: It is preferable to place the implant during the first days of the menstrual cycle to ensure immediate effectiveness.
-
Local anesthesia: A small anesthetic needle is used to numb the arm area from the inside.
-
Implant implantation: The implant (about the size of a match) is inserted under the skin using a special instrument, in a procedure that takes less than 10 minutes.
-
Bandage: Apply a compression bandage to the arm for 24 hours to reduce swelling and bruising.
-
Follow-up: An examination is scheduled two weeks after the installation to confirm the placement of the implant and the integrity of the skin.
