TOPIC: Molding PMMA - not as easy as I thought

I can\'t believe all of the perfectly even penises on here that are freshly post-op... Mine was even and swollen for an hour or two, but eventually I was supposed to take off the silicone sleeve and massage it (now I wish I never took it off - it looked good right when I took it off and then it descended into ugliness). It seems like I have very little swelling compared to others & compared to my last surgery - just the water in the Metacril is giving me size right now. Instead, I have a really annoying void in the center. Every time I push PMMA into it, it just bleeds out the injection holes (I have 6 - all mid shaft). It\'s driving me nuts. It was something Wade was working on too - and he was having a hard time getting it to stick there also.

I also feel very large lumps at the base and some small nodules right under the head (corona) area. How is that happening already? The base ones are sore- so it hurts to break up...and I can\'t really even break it up.

This is the worst it got...and ironically, this was after massage to get the PMMA more evenly distributed. It clearly does not want to go to any part of the top of the shaft. I sort of smoothed it out since this pic was taken...but I had to put the sleeve on so no time for pics...I honestly don\'t know if it\'s a mess or not under the sleeve. Thankfully seeing wade soon.


Roughly 4 hours post injections - after sleeve was off for 3 hrs & some (light) massage

More details and pics on my journal page- just wanted to bring up the molding issue separately.

Out of curious, I pressume the PMMA is injected perfectly even. Does it then start to move about to different parts of the penis or is it the messaging the lumps that causes it to move out of the originally injected areas?

It\'s just very watery at first....it\'s injected evenly - but the body starts having a reaction to it and swelling...and some guys on here swell very evenly. for some reason, I don\'t. I don\'t know if the massage made it better or worse, honestly. Wade evened it out...so manual manipulation is important. There are a few posters who had weird looking penises 3-4 hours later. I think people who retract will have the most oddities.

An old post, but I am one of those who retract, but I kept up with the massaging through out. I left the clinic with a wrap, not a sleeve, and took it off after an hour or so, and put it on later when I went out for dinner and took it off again. But for the rest of the time I was on my Dick massaging even though it hurt, just would take rest for a bit here and there... and except for sleeping I was on it. What else was there to do in the hotel room anyway, watching stuff and massaging. So far I have a very good result. Round 1 has been good. Also now Im using an ESL40 or 60 whatever they provided at the clinic to keep the Dick extended through out the day. The rubber irritates the skin a little but nothing not manageable. I started using extender around day 10 onwards. Used wrap until Day 4 or 5. Kept the wrap light to not give any impression on the penis and would take it off ever so often to massage the Dick post Day 3.

Yes swelling was even through out the penis.

Wow I cant believe that twas 2 years ago...damn... my result after that was very good. It just looked scary at first.

My Nodule situation was perfectly fine in the first 4-5 days.

THanks for taking the time to add comments like this Restororation. It really helps to understand some of the horrors sort themselves out.

I\'m a lurker, still hugely undecided .
