TOPIC: PMMA available in California

This product can be found all across the U.S. FDA-Approved PMMA does exist for Dermal Filler use. And you don\'t hear much about its use in the penis given, as gsxr pointed out, its cost. I\'m also not so sure the bovine carrier is ideal for penile application, but if anyone does end up getting work done strictly with Bellafill (previously Artefill), please share.

I called the clinic last week and asked about it. The receptionist told me that their Belafill product lasts about 5 years. She said on average 20 percent of the product could remain after. 5 years. They had a special going, 800 dollars for .8cc.

In the same realself link, there are doctors who say IT IS permanent... and unless whatever article you find explains the mechanism by which the body eradicates the PMMA, there is no reason to believe it is semi-permanent. Furthermore, the product has been around as a Dermal Filler for longer than 10 years, and to date, there isn\'t any substantiated report showing that the product fails & absorbs after this time.

And I alluded to a cucumber to point out that I have had zero loss in size, maybe not the most tactful choice of words, but it was intended to point out how I have never felt the need to have a top-off of product. That is because it has not gotten any thinner/smaller.

Thanks to all of you guys for an excellent discussion.

I finally talked with Anna at Jenesis. Dr. Chung is not currently in the country, I was told she is in Asia attending a plastic surgery conference for the next couple of weeks. So no use in doing a consultation at this time. I will be back in the San Jose area in June/July, so I will setup an appointment for that time and report back.

biggerbob, anything?

Watching this. Please report back after your consult. Since I just cancelled with Dr. C, I would consider this. I would like to get a feel for how many she has done, and see if they have a before/after gallery?

Can you ask her about her PMMA procedure for the shaft as well? Procedure, costs that kinda thing.

I have an appointment with Dr. Chung for this next Thursday. I will let everyone know how it goes. If I go through with the glans enhancement, I will post before and after pictures in a new patient thread.

Closing in on 5 years post op. I\'m still sitting at 7.25\"+ in circumference. That said, as ones face ages, loss of muscle tone, elastin and collagen (lest we not forget aging is progressive) and bone structure changes may necessitate more product to counteract good old Mother Nature. The filler however is PERMANENT. The penis does not age similarly to the face. You take your penis (in all its augmented glory), the collagen and all the plastic microspheres to your grave.

Im interested in this and wanted to see how ur consultation goes, i live in cali and id be willing to do the HA and this especially for premature ejaculation, man i need to scour these forums and get more info everything ive been thru this seems like the route to go!!!

Thanks this board was found accidently and it has been a godsent tbh!

Timeframe on visiting Dr. Chung has had a set back due to other work issues. Looks like I won\'t be able to get down there until late September now. I will post once I have had a consultation and if I decide to go for the HA in the glans, I will post before and after pics.

any updates from biggerbob?

Belafill is only FDA approved for 5 years due to the excessive cost to run trials...and running a trial for 10 years would be outrageously expensive and stall revenue for 10 years. They are basing that on Artefill studies (Same basic product as belafill) In reality, It lasts longer. Also, most docs don\'t see the same patients 5-10+ years later...so they might say it\'s only semi-permanent on realself but there are enough studies showing that it is still there decades later. One specific study that comes to mind was a woman who had interferon for cancer or hepatitis, and that caused the rejection of PMMA - which was injected a very long time ago. I can\'t seem to find the article though.
