PhalloBoards - An Online Community to Discuss Penile Girth Enhancement

That\'s good - I\'m glad the derm was knowledgeable and able to work with this. This process might be a bit slow... It\'s hard to say. They managed to find the right balance of collagenase in there so it won\'t harm your healthy tissue - but it will break down the unhealthy tissue. So, I think, depending on your body - it could take a while. You definitely don\'t want to over-apply it, as it would just be irritating then. But, tissue healing is a long term proposition.

Biafene is kind of like a very strong moisturizer. I am not even sure why it is prescription-only. It helps with burns and accelerating the healing process...but so does a strong moisturizer or castor oil. It sounds like the doctor felt your immediate medical need was probably the necrosis...and possibly, biafine could dilute or block the penetration of santyl if put in the same area.

That is great, sounds like you found an excellent doctor. I am sure things will improve over the weeks and yes please keep us up to date !

Smalljay - you got my PM right? I said to see a dermatologist... but it\'s not in my sent items folder, so I can\'t paste the whole thing back. Basically, they are more focused on these issues. They see genital lesions all the time...urologists don\'t see stuff like this really. Urologists are dealing with prostate cancer and urination issues, etc. They are more concerned with function.

Thank you for the report. My goes out to you and hope you fully recover. I think things will definitely improve over time. It would be a great idea to have a local doctor check you out to make sure you are doing everything you can to heal completely.

If you are in Los Angeles Dr Gary Alter has very likely dealt with cases like this. Otherwise I would probably go with a dermatologist. Ideally it would be someone who works with other specialists outside his field so he can consult them if needed.

Don\'t worry medical office staff deals with all kinds of odd issues. Part to their job is to provide professional and discrete service. To save time though, I would probably be vague and tell the front office and nurse you have STD like symptoms and then when you see the doctor be completely honest and give him all the details. A good MD will listen and help put you at ease. If he is not the right guy, just move on to someone else. With a little time and effort I am sure you will find a good match.

Trust me, in the big scheme of medical calamities they deal with, this really will not come across as a big issue.

Hey Smalljay, I wouldn\'t despair too much since you only recently completed the process with Dr. Cho, there is still lots of time to heal. You might want to try Moon Valley Organics Herbal Heal - www.moonvalleyorganics.com/collections/m...s/products/wound-aid . Among the products I have tried, this product is the most useful in healing the glans after hanging weights to increase length. Best not project into the future but rather to focus on healing a bit more each day. The skin of the glans is capable of repairing itself over time.

Oh wow - sorry to hear about this. That is pretty awful for you and Kittenpaste - and not ethical at all that he said he \"hasn\'t had a complication in years\". How could anyone (as a man) do that to another man\'s penis? You seem pretty calm about it - you all know how I\'d be if that happened...

When you get back to the usa, hopefully you can find a doc that will be able to recommend some things for the necrotic skin and the holes. If you can find a dermatologist who is willing to look at you, there are creams that drastically speed healing (biafine is one) and also creams for debridement of necrotic tissue (santyl is one - but might not be appropriate here).

Good luck & hope you get better soon.

Sorry to hear about your problems smalljay. A member named bori also had the procedure but he has since disappeared. I have had three shaft procedures with Dr. Cho, and I can\'t say I\'m completely satisfied for the money I spent. I wouldn\'t fly across the world to go there but I went because I live in Korea and I was too impatient to wait to see Dr. C again and my penis was jacked up after my first procedure with Dr. C so I needed a fix asap. I definitely will not be pursuing the glans after yours and kittypastes reports. Thanks for posting and saving other guys from a similar mistake. \'

Do you have any pictures?

Aquamid aka hydrogel, while doing my research for body augmentation ( sorry didn\'t save link cause was more than a two years ago). This substance has cause a lot of horror stories in women getting butt injections, at first it seemed great like PMMA, then the horror stories of major migration and really bad infections( read through makemeheal and real self and google). At the time it was like 2008 - 9 and DR C was working at another clinic, and got bad reviews. Most clinic back then offered it in mexico but hard to find a clinic that will do it now once the complication rate was too high to ignore, though it seems other south american clinics / chinese clinics and still offering it. It is very cheap, that the hotel pumping parties ( whatever they are called) are passing it off as PMMA well as industrial silicone.

PMMA seems to be the safest thing as it doesn\'t migrate, though seems to have a slight problem with chronic imflammation in some.

Aquamid is far from safe, go online and you will read the horror stories. Even Dr C stopped using it on cosmetic procedures years ago because it has a lot of problem that come with it.

If anyone is interested. Aquamid is said to be effective, safe and last about 4-5 years. Even though they advertise it as a permanent filler.

Disappointing

Thanks, Mike. I have to say that is disappointing. I know a lot of guys, myself included, were looking towards this with great anticipation.

Got this from Wade today:

We have put the \"Lipen D\" procedure to the side for now, and do not see anything changing in the near future. As you know Radiesse offers minimal results at best, and we are not willing to use this product for this procedure at this time.

I asked doc C about this. He said the technique Dr cho taught him does give good results, but he couldn\'t get any info about follow ups, he only ever saw the results immediately afterward. He also said that results at the most only last two years, and you could only do the procedure 3 times before your glans starts to get fibrotic. To me that\'s a deal breaker. The right procedure doesn\'t exist yet. I\'m hopeful in the next ten years or so someone will figure something out.
