TOPIC: Wheres the beef? PMMA Collagen question.

I remember a few threads that mentioned the stages of PMMA. I am having trouble finding a concise guide to the timeline.

If some of you with long term experience in this could help, I would appreciate it.

When does the shrinkage start? When is the shrinkage over approx?

When does collagen come in? When should you have the final product?

What size does it end up? The size immediately after surgery? The size after day 2, 7, 14?

Thanks guys

Wow. 70 views so far and still no reply? Anyone?

I think the lack of replies is due to the information being widely available in progress reports, especially the more detailed and day-to-day/week-to-week ones. I know it\'s a lot of scouring & reading to do, but you\'ll see members make remarks about changes in their penis throughout the course of their progress report. I also imagine that these changes vary (presumably slightly) between patients, so there may be \"window of times\" as opposed to \"a specific number of days\" when things change/occur.

I, unfortunately, did not track my penis\'s subtle changes through the course of treatment for my own personal reasons, and for that reason, I don\'t have much I can share.

Good luck.

Thank you for the reply SO!

I have been searching and reading through endless progress reports.

It would be cool to have a single thread that contains the entire timeline. This would in my mind be worthy of a sticky IMHO.

It\'s a great idea! And, in the course of your readings & research, it wouldn\'t hurt to set aside a scratch sheet to make notes on this chronological order of occurrences to perhaps create (or contribute) to the thread you speak of. The great thing about PhalloBoards is that a good bulk of the contributions come from the members themselves.

Tommygun,

One reason for the lack of replies is due to the nature of individuality. Some men keep their post op size. Some shrink down to slightly larger than pre-op and never see an additional increase. Some lose size post op and then blow up massively in the following weeks/months. Personally, I\'ve determined one cannot assess final gains until they reach the 6 - 8 month mark. There are going to be ups and downs. In a nutshell, YMMV.
