PhalloBoards - An Online Community to Discuss Penile Girth Enhancement

lvhatrick wrote: I’m a 55 year old man 5’10” 190 lbs. I’m in extremely good shape for my age as I am in the gym 4 days a week. Full disclosure my penis is on the large size already. BPEL - 7” EG - 5.5”. This isn’t an over exaggeration and I will be posting before and post surgery photos. I already feel like this is the stupidest thing I can do at times and I talk myself out of it every other hour.

I was similar. Started fairly large statistically. Somewhere around 7.25 or 7.5 long and 5.5 in girth. I tried to talk myself out of it too. Definitely did not lol. Pumping is also where I started.

The reason I started looking into this is I was pumping with my wife and reaching EG - 6.5”. Needless to say my wife loved it. I did too actually. That led to this whole thing. There’s a lot of conflicting information on these boards and I was hoping for some clarity.

Recovery - What is the first couple days like? How long will I have to wear bandages? When can I get back to the gym? The Dr said 3 weeks before I can have sex again, does that sound correct? Any insight would be appreciated.

Don't over think this. After any filler procedure the recovery is a minor irritation. Aftercare will vary slightly from Linnea Safe to Bellafill, just follow their procedures. Personally I was back to work and life day after or even same day after I got my first session out of the way, in that case I stayed in Mexico for a day or two and rested. Never did that again. I can't recommend that, but I've never had issues with much of a hassle after neither PMMA or HA.

Results - It certainly sounds like these things turn into multiple sessions. I wasn’t not prepared to hear that and that is a definite negative for me. I am having 10 syringes, what can I expect from that? Any insight would be appreciated.

Irregardless of what filler you go with, plan on minimum two sessions. Perhaps with Rupeka you might get one decent sized Bellafill session and be happy but I doubt it. You're wanting about an inch. That's two or three sessions for any product really.

Any info I can get would be sincerely appreciated. Actually, I wouldn’t mind being talked out of this especially considering my current size.

Since you're so on the fence... If money isn't a massive concern, why don't you look into one of the hybrid options that is not as permanent? Find a good practitioner who uses a Radiesse and HA blend and properly injects it. You may love that route. I also sent you a private message.

Thanks.

Secondly, Dr. Loria is a career liar. You have no idea how many times he changed up his vocabulary with respect to his filler and how quickly he'd change subjects. I've joined in on calls, and I've had members join in on conference calls, and he would just toss around gibberish assuming us (the "ignorant") would take his word for it. He would even throw around terms like "PMMA" and "Collagen production" and wouldn't even mention silicone at first. He's so evasive in fact, that there is a former patient on a separate PE forum who shared a story when in the hospital for his penis condition, that Loria refused to give the physicians information on what was injected. Can you believe that? This patient facing infection that could lead to sepsis, and Loria didn't have even the morality to do the right thing for his own patient because he's clearly got something to hide. I really try my hardest to refrain from name-calling as it is not befitting of an Administrator of a site discussing serious topics, but that was such a scumbag move on Loria's part and tells me everything I need to know about who he really is.

When I brought up him using the term "Cosmetic Surgeon," it wasn't meant to say that you need to be a surgeon to perform these procedures, it was to say he was lying about his medical background because he's in-fact NOT a surgeon in any capacity.

Yes, I received an email from his marketing rep, not himself obviously. He's too proud and stubborn to ever make the first move. I've defended Sponsors and Non-Sponsors alike. I'm open to new Sponsors. Ask yourself why I won't accept Loria? Why not take his money? Ask yourself why the vast majority of penis enlargement doctors don't include silicone oil as a filler option when they can use Silikon100 off-label? Do you really truly believe this Hair Restoration "specialist" has figured out what career-accomplished surgeons and urologists haven't?

Having followed the scene since 2005 and learned the nuances of the penis and these procedures from the Doctors themselves sort of actually does amount to the same kind of "credits" you'd need to earn to have some above-average understanding of the topic matter -- more so than a random "nurse" I'd contend. I've spent countless hours reading not only posts, but private messages, emails, and other modes of communication for well over a decade with both patients and Doctors (some of which were non-Sponsors). I've studied sexual medicine to the extent that I have a good understanding of anatomy and some of the physiologies involved, especially as it pertains to penis enlargement. Sure, I'm not a medical professional, but I do see myself as the most qualified Patient Educator there is (on matters of penis enlargement). Either way, my claims are made on the information provided to me by those who are in the know, and many of them.

Clearly your schooling has not made you any smarter on making good decisions in this respect, and I'm afraid not even a Doctorate will solve your inability to see the patterns of deception -- but I get it, the last thing you want to think about is having a ticking timebomb in your penis, so you have to double down on defending your poorly made decision by reassuring yourself that because you've had some medical training, that you're incapable of being scammed. You know, no one likes being scammed, it's a tough pill to swallow as a grown adult. Besides, an ICU Nurse? I seldom "LOL" on this forum but I know a few personally (ICU in fact), and I assure you they wouldn't have a damn clue about the nuances of penis enlargement, so kick rocks with that nonsense please.

Dr. Elist has been performing his botcheries circa 2009, and we all know how terrible his procedure is. Dr. Loria's patient count doesn't give him any points, all it tells me is that he's a sociopath for cash.

Yes, many of the Doctors I know of actually show the box, or at the very least, will have the box and serial number sticker per request.

You do realize that until he has FDA clearance, he's injecting you illegally, right?

Do you actually believe he changes the ratios of his filler ingredients per patient on the day of the procedure? Right there and then in his lab by just examining your penis? I mean that seems rather tedious, inefficient, and costly. Did you have to wait a while before he came into the room with the syringes? Seems bizarre if you ask me. If I were a gambling man, I'd wager a pretty penny he has a set ratio premade ready to go, largely that of silicone oil that is imported illegally in order to give him absurd profit margins. Last I checked, Silikon1000 was the 2nd most expensive filler, only behind Bellafill (PMMA), and looking at some price lists right now, may have exceeded that of Bellafill. To pump the kind of volumes you require with this type of filler (60cc's +) and keep his pricing market-competitive, I'm having a hard time believing he's using anything legally. But you just haven't asked yourself those kind of questions, have you? I'm trying to do you a favor here, if you can only see it.

What you ultimately fail to see is that this site promotes the efficacious methods of phalloplasty based on its history, the science/medicine behind it, and patient feedback. The PhalloBoards is the only site, community, and validated source (via physician education & endorsement) that has followed this niche topic, and has done so for 13 years. It isn't bias, it's reality. If it were bias, why would I provide my readership with different options like Alloderm, Surgimend, Ellanse, Hyaluronic Acid, Radiesse, PMMA (Bellafill AND Linnea Safe), Renuva, Fat Transfer, and so on? PRP and exosomes? Different regions, states, different countries? Do you think some of my Sponsors were thrilled that P-Long came along? Well, it was an alternative to phalloplasty for guys who like to do PE exercises. By encouraging healthy competition, I play a role in lowering market costs and incentivizing innovation among the leaders in phalloplasty. I have weekly/monthly calls and can't wait for them to share some advances made that I'm not at liberty to speak of at present time (because they need to be fully tested). I'm clearly taking the sides of methods I know don't possess unacceptable levels of risk based on a knowledge that you simply do not have -- if that's bias, fine, I'll concede that much. And yes, all elective procedures are not without risk, but there is a line that when crossed, becomes unacceptable.

If this wasn't an open free flow of information, wouldn't I have simply deleted your posts and banned you? If you want to continue insulting this forum and its community, then you can go take a hike. We've been very receptive to your experience(s), but I've stated on innumerable occasions that this site is a No-Silicone-Zone, and so whenever the procedure itself is promoted or recommended, I've made it a forum policy to provide the necessary information to many newcomers who are simply unaware. If hypothetically PMMA (known to be non-carcinogenic) were to somehow have a 100% direct causality with cancer, not only would most ethical Doctors discontinue its use, but those who choose not to would be admonished and black-listed.

I've seen enough emails of Loria patients begging for assistance, and Doctors telling me the nightmares they've seen fixing his garbage-excuse for work. This is also true for the Penuma (Elist implant). However, I just don't get that level of scary reporting from the aforementioned procedures I support (like HA and PMMA and so on). Those mostly deal with aesthetic issues that never impact the health and/or function of the penis.

Oof, the kind of skin grafts required to fix a Loria procedure gone wrong, or the severity of late stage granulomas with something so synthetic, or migration into other parts of the body... I know of a forum veteran who I won't mention that is experiencing illness that may be related to silicone oil according to some back-channel sources, if I get confirmation that the diagnosis is confirmed (or get him willing to acknowledge it here), I will.

Lastly, you told me you didn't want to argue, and I made clear my post was a PSA in response to what may have been an intentional or unintentional promotion of this procedure (citing patents give people the impression of legitimacy), and it wasn't necessarily to argue with you. I also asked in my last post that we carry on, because as you said yourself, you wish not to argue. Everything I've said has been factual, honest, and informed. The only thing I said that I can't prove (but believe the evidence is strongly in favor of) is my belief that he sources/imports silicone illegally because there is no way he's charging those prices for the amount of volume being injected, even in bulk. Everything else were facts, plain and simple.

Based on your insistence that there are no more arguments, I am politely asking everyone please resume the topic at hand.

I agree with you to move on. I don’t really care to address many of the above comments since it will just keep this discussion going. However I do want to be clear that use of medications off label (the use of drugs outside the approved FDA intention) is in fact legal. Also to that point as the below link will highlight- doctors are not required to tell patients if the medications they are prescribing are being done in an “off label” manner. However Loria does.

I understand that to those who are not medical this might come as a shock but I just wanted to clear that up that it is not illegal. So please make sure your sticking to your word when you profess to be educated on these matters and putting down healthcare workers and their educations when it’s us who care for you and your loved ones.

I also wanna comment that I don’t think you’re a bad dude. I appreciate that you care and take a strong stance in your opinion. I do believe you truly dislike Loria and his practice and want to convince guys to avoid him. I completely disagree with your view but you’re entitled to feel how you do.
I encourage everyone to not take your word nor my word and to do their own research and speak to patients from all companies to get their experiences.

Yeah no arguing please. Been there and I agree to disagree lol. I’m a Loria patient. He has his own patented filler with the main ingredient being Silikon 1000.

And yeah dude. She loves it! Trust me. They stretch.

His patent is a proprietary filler non-FDA approved. He's fucked over almost as many men as Dr. Elist. You're literally playing with fire by continuing to see a Doctor who was an overweight nutritionist, who then made his money on Hair Restoration despite balding, and now injects you with things that may or may not be legal. Dr. Loria is a scam and a disgrace to medicine.

You can choose to do what you do, but with the overwhelming advice of the only community that genuinely vets the validity & efficacy of these procedures, choose to ignore or carry on.

I turned down a sizeable amount of revenue when they approached me for Sponsorship. The man is a scourge and plague to this field of cosmetic medicine. The proverbial "sleazy car salesman" of penis enlargement.

Administrative Addition: Between Emails, Private Messages, and conversations with both Sponsors and non-Sponsors alike, I know of what goes on behind the scenes (and it pisses me off these patients won't come forward, and makes me convinced they sign off social media waivers), and he's actually regarded as worse than Dr. Elist, because at least Dr. Elist is a Urologist. Dr. Loria isn't qualified in the least.

The DECEPTION of silicone oil is that it is permanent and often yields aesthetic results. BUT ASK YOUR SELF JUST ONCE - if this product is available to every other credible Phallo-Doc off-label, why wouldn't they use it?

Silikon1000 made clear that this is not made for high volume and should be applied superficially via micro-droplet. I actually no longer believe Loria (from now on I refuse to honor the "Dr." prefix) uses Silikon1000, even if he shows you the box. You know the kind of profit margins you make by importing Chinese silicone oil and throwing around the word "collagen" to convince those who don't know any better that it's like PMMA? I mean, he makes less money if he offers HA, Renuva, Radiesse, or PMMA. He's playing with fire if he's creating a non-FDA approved substance in some Florida lab, if you wish to stay this reckless, by all means.
