TOPIC: PMMA (utmost package) at Avanti Derma 8/11/22

so I thought to create this thread to give my progress once I start the PMMA treatment, I’m scheduled to do utmost package on Aug 11th, if anyone else doing around those days let me know. I’m going to be flying to San Diego the day before and staying in downtown area, I’m glad they will be providing shuttle even if costly.

If anyone has advice from places to eat to travel to Mexico, please let me know. Since not sure if I should be resting at hotel or if I can walk around without too much issue.

What most of you might not know, I was one of the volunteers for Dr Shafer (NY) clinical trials for the voluma treatment last year. I was told not to talk about the details till after study, hence only mentioned briefly on the site. I had total of 19 syringes of the voluma in total (15= 10+5 in shaft and 4 in glans: 2+2) 2 treatments within a 2-3 weeks span of each other.unfortunately I don’t know exact measurements from
Original and afterwards. Since it’s been a year my Girth is at 5in. But the inital size after filler was much bigger and gave huge confidence booster that I finally chose to do more permanent since it be costly to do yearly

Today I got all my fillers dissolved so I can do the PMMA with a Avanti. It takes few days to fully go away, from what I was told is that when they dissolve the fillers it’s technically dissolving your current collagen. So that is risk whenever you choose to dissolve non permanent filler or let it dissolve naturally and your natural collagen will stay intact.

You say you need to dissolve your HA before beginning PMMA? I was hoping to go from HA to Bellafill myself later this year, but was under impression it was ok to begin Bellafill before all the HA was dissolved. Anyone know more details why it is/is-not ok to go from HA to PMMA without dissolving the HA first?

Ian told me I have to wait 30 days after dissolving to do procedure. If you think about it, it makes sense, since HA only last 12-15months. If you go PMMA on top of it. Once your HA goes away naturally then your PMMA will make your penis lopsided since the areas of the HA is gone

Hence removing completely, I really hope I don’t have to do second round of dissolving. I was told to massage the enzyme for few days to help dissolve the filler.

There is an Argentinan steak house basically across the street from the Grand Hotel that is awesome.

There is also in all you can eat Brazilian steakhouse the same plaza that Walmart is located. It was really good and only costs 16 bucks. Across the street is a real good authentic Mexican restaurant. I believe the name was El portaro

Thanks buckeye and timid, so I’m assuming I don’t need to take shuttle right away after procedure, I can walk around then take shuttle whenever I want to?

Also the prices of the restaurants near Avanti. I’m assuming those prices are pesos? Since the Argentina restaurant showing prices like $82 for salad lol.

Also they take credit cards?

I’m little hesitant walking around Tijuana , since had bad experience long time ago, with corrupted cop asking for money just for stopping at a red light but few inches above line.

84 dollars for a salad would be in pesos. I would translate to $4 american. Work with the hotel concierge about a shuttle or taxi.

Im staying at the Westin in San Diego, you saying it be cheaper asking grand hotel for shuttle instead of going thru Avanti or asking the Westin hotel to provide taxi to Avanti and grand hotel back to San Diego ?

I’m assuming no Uber both ways?

I think he was referring to just getting around in TJ, not the SD to TJ hop

You should be able to walk around post procedure without any problems.

Yes, the prices are in local currency (pesos)

Yes, they take credit cards. But you need to ask them what they are giving for the exchange rate. We just got back from Playa del Carmen, and the majority of the places we were at would charge your card in U.S. dollars, and give an exchange rate lower than what the actual exchange rate was. So basically charging you more than what something actually costs. Now granted, it may only be a peso (e.g. rate is 20:1, and they give you 19:1). In most cases that isn't a big deal. Just letting you know that it is standard practice. So ask them if you can pay with a credit card, but be charged in pesos.

A FYI, since most mentioned about taking Cialis for their PMMA treatment.

You take it after procedure, not before the procedure or else it becomes difficult to to add all the fillers while Erect.
This seems interesting since when I had juvaderm, DrShafer injected me so I would get Erection then he inputed fillers .

Since I was curious about putting ointment (canabis to reduce swelling) Ian said that I have to wait till entry wounds close before I can apply anything.

They do recommend to stay at the grand hotel for 1 night if you are doing the utmost package.

Good to know they work in August. Want to go in July

I apologize I don’t have exact measurement. But I was told I gain .6in and gained some flacid length as you see.

They picked me up from the Westin and dropped me at the place. East to find Avanti (level 11) . Once I got their I filled out some forms and as to have mix of aesthics and to make it big. I said to do both, she gave me a total 23 syringes of the PMMA . 10% near head and base and rest 30% . Before procedure they gave atrivan which made me relaxed and talkative lol but overall painless. They highly recommend stretching to get most of the fillers to drop down. They then injected Botox and glan fillers and prp to heal. So far looks good but I’m feeling extremely exhausted, lightheaded even when typing this experience. I had to see again fer hours after procedure then will see him next day to do ipl led lights. He said to take Cialis after procedure so their sflow and easier to push to glan

Day 2 , pain is not bad but if I lie down and then stand back up then I feel pain. The stretcher is good but I recommend being additional weight to add on, unfortunately he didn’t have extras to give me another one. I wear the stretcher while going on my every day life . It definitely increased my Flaccid length to max . About 5in or so.

I had the ipl and led lights which is was not bad, hopefully it does something. He gave me some medications from ibruphen , flowmax and antibiotics

I might have to do second round next year since I still have some juvaderm that didn’t dissolve

I’m hoping the bleeding will eventually stop. Since massaging increases the bleeding. He told me to massage every 2 hr for 1 week then it can be 8hrs or so for month, but to keep stretching to prevent retraction

I recommend taking shuttle since it’s faster skipping the line even thou pricey 160 round trip

Still swollen . And bleeds on entry points when I massage. Hoping that bleeding be done by tommorow
