Hi,
Cosmetic implants are usually successful and they are only for cosmetic purposes and have no functional element. If you need to have the feel of a testicle in your scrotal sac then you should go ahead. If not strongly needed then you can avoid the surgery.
Dissolving implants availability and expertise is available at few centers and you will have to ask your Surgeon about it. They would be able to help you.
Take care,
Dr Rishi, New Delhi, India.
