I feel that HA or something similar in nature may not be as dangerous due to the fact that it is temporary and usually has to be redone within six months or so. Thanks again everyone for your input regarding this topic.
It\'s irrelevant whether it\'s temporary or not. There is a reason experienced Dr\'s inject
HA in the shaft via a cannula. When you consider they still take that precaution when they are able to make skin \"tent\", it should say something about injecting into the glans.
Blocking the vascular supply is just as likely with
HA as with any filler. With a sharp needle you can injure the vessel, compress or block it with filler. It\'s harder to tell if you\'ve done damage in the glans than in the face.
I\'m not or never have been planning glans enlargement, but the only reason I comment on discussions about it is to make people aware that it\'s risky and not worth it for the small gains we\'ve observed. We\'ve only had about 5 or 6 guys report glans enhancement and as you know 2 have turned necrotic. It wasn\'t to do with permanency of the filler, but I do believe they were
HA based fillers on both occasions.
I\'m not saying it\'s a big risk, but just that it\'s not a risk worth taking. The guys who did have
Necrosis didn\'t seem to gain much anyway.
