I wish you luck, I'm going on five years with
Ellanse (3 year version) and five rounds rounds with the first one in September 2020. I haven't noticed any decrease. I think I have more
Ellanse than anyone in the world. I'm eventually going to transition to Linnea safe. Yeah
Bellafill is an option but I like avantia derma and there are arguments to be made for Linnea safe over
Bellafill. I honestly would keep going with
Ellanse but the thing is, if and when it decreases, I don't want to keep going through rounds later in life if my body has trouble healing wounds. It's a recipe for infection.
But back to
Ellanse, I think the reason you chose it is because it's semi-permanent so there's an added safety net in case something goes wrong. We don't know how long the gains actually last if you've read this sub.
I got some little nodules from my last session where I reached a two
Inch gain from my original 5
Inch Girth. So not quite .5 per round. But I screwed up with the second round and did too much too soon. I gained considerably less my second round but did more. I wouldn't go over 12ml, it may be a waste. They'll gauge that, telling you there's no more room, but I would just save the money even if they say they can put more in. It could leak out and your wasting product if it all doesn't fit.
So the nodules last round, I've talked about this before here, in my opinion was because I didn't press the product away from the entry points hard and often enough. Product stayed too close to the wound, the wound had trouble healing, and my body formed these little white
Balls that look like whiteheads to seal the wound. My other four rounds I didn't have this much of an issue but it was still somewhat of an issue during the fourth. The reason I wasn't pressing the product away as much was because I was actually fairly concerned of the wound not healing in time for me to go on vacation with this girl. I didn't want to have sex with her and have the wounds open up. So to speed healing, it was my idea to not aggravate the wounds as much. The first three rounds the healing was much quicker in terms of the wound healing. The first round I think was the worst in terms of bruising and swelling. If you listen to what Avantia tells you to do, you'll be fine. Honestly, the little bumps don't bother me. Not one girl has said anything. My head is disproportionate to my shaft but I don't care.
I would definitely get a room at the grand and do it now so they don't sell out the rooms. You don't want to be walking back and forth from another hotel and getting room service at the grand is way easier than eating out. And not that much more expensive. I would stay a full day extra if it was my first round again. After that and you get the hang of it, flying out the next day is fine as long as you keep up with the after care.
