What is the hesitation with fat grafting?
Why are folks recommending Ellanse.? PMMA?
Also, seems to be a negative feeling about ligament cut. I'm looking for some feedback from you guys. Any recommendations?
Congrats on the forum, I think you all provide excellent information.
Thanks.
I think fat grafting with an emphasis on vascularization (so you don't want to go too heavy on the fat) can work as a modest girth enhancer, and Dr. Carney is among only a handful I'd recommend in that regard. It's also a safer route because the fat is your own tissue (no risk of adverse immune response like you'd see with foreign implants).
Lengthening is hard to assess through progress reporting because there are more variables than with girth enhancement. Not only does "how much length is released" vary person-to-person, so does their commitment to the necessary post-op protocol (weeks of wearing a stretching device, etc) designed to cement gains. So I wouldn't call lengthening "negative" here, but simply "scrutinized" due to the inaccessibility of valid claims. That said, if any place on the web has lengthening reviews, you'll find some here (and on the
previous forum
). There are some who've alleged both flaccid and erect gains.
Again, if you're going to undergo Phalloplasty, the Rejuvall team is top notch and I look forward to your progress reporting should you decide to share your story
