well Firstly, Thank you to everyone for all of the replies, Information and different perspectives. It is definitely food for thought.
I would agree that some of the surgeons you may hear about or decide to go to in other countries are now achieving some better results with their injections but I am sure they had plenty of errors that you never heard about before they got popular enough to advertise as well.
To answer the question of why I would go to my brother who does not have the experience in that particular region is simple, He is my brother!
If he did not feel it was safe or know what he was doing, he simply would not do it for me as I asked him years ago about a penis procedure and he told me the outcome is not good and he would not do it.
Secondly, He has been taught and trained in a place that demands a much better ethics of standards and stricter teaching practices (The U.S.A.)
Just as their is a variation difference within academic learning and knowledge received from going to a community college as opposed to attending lets say Yale or Harvard, you can count on a major learning curve when dealing with Doctors from third world countries as opposed to the states.
Also with over 26 years of surgery experience, additional years of micro vessel surgery and laser training throughout residency I feel pretty safe in his hands.
As Omega, Restoration and others have pointed out, I really don\'t need it, but I have never thought of myself as very large and have always thought If it was a little thicker or maybe a
Inch or two longer I would feel better.
I agree with many that have dysmorphia or those who say.. It doesn\'t matter what you have because you will always want more. lol
Now for the part that you guys can help with..
I believe he uses Metacril
PMMA (polymethylmethacrylate) fillers contain 20% tiny
PMMA microspheres suspended in 80% purified collagen gel FDA-approved
PMMA filler. If that is the case of what he plans to use would that be a good acceptable filler in this day and age?
About myself I am 6ft2 and currently weigh 286 lbs down from 310.
I use to workout like crazy and diet hard just to maintain at 230lbs from my twenty\'s until 36. Then I had a back injury with 3 blown discs and multiple issues that cant be fixed. So now I am in my 40s and I just cant seem to get the weight down or keep it down much.
I will probably see if he will take pity on my fat pad as well. lol
I have fought with my weight forever.
As far as cost goes I am not well off at all like my brother.
I could not normally afford anything so frugal like this.
So I am only paying cost for material through my own insisting.
He originally told me he didn\'t want the money and tried to say it would be a Christmas present.
From what I read surgeons can order 20cc of metacril for around 400.00 usd.
