Getting a procedure done is a very personal choice. We can chime in and give our opinions, but ultimately it is your call.
I am torn in what to tell you. In all honesty, I wish I could have had this done when I was 18. If it was available then, you wouldn\'t have been able to keep me away from it. Done in a heartbeat. But, keep in mind that some guys continue growing naturally well into their 20\'s. I had a buddy who hit his growth (overall, not just penis) later than most and stopped around 24. So you never know what nature has in store for you. However, like Hoddle said, you do have time to wait. In a couple of years there could be a better solution out there. Even though this is your first post, thank you for showing you took time to actually read before asking a question. That will go a long way with people being willing to help out. I\'ll go over some of your points with my opinion, based on my experience and what I have gathered from others.
don\'t go for 30% if you want a natural feel, there will always be irregularities and nodules (and Dr. C can fix all of them with touch-up rounds)
Here is the deal with this one. You are right to expect irregularities. Some guys come out and look perfect, others aren\'t so lucky. You really do not know how your body is going to react. 30% will provide slightly more size and density, but 10% helps to reduce the risks of nodules. At your age you should have absolutely no issue with collagen production. I would also advise you against thinking that Dr. C can fix all problems, irregularities, nodules, etc. If they do arise, he can help to fix and minimize them, but some guys have experienced continued aesthetic and tactile issues, even after touch up rounds.
if you go big you will inevitably get a
PMMA ninja turtle look while
Flaccid if you\'re a turtler
This is true for some guys and not true for others. Goes back to it being a very individualized experience. Fillers will help to keep the penis extended in the
Flaccid state for most guys. Don\'t think that it will allow you to hang at your
Erect length. It could, but don\'t expect it. This also has to do with the glans to shaft ratio.
PMMA has diminished for many members
I am not quite sure what you mean here. After pretty much any filler procedure, including
PMMA, there will be a time of swelling and inflammation. This takes some time to go away, some guys more than others. The size you see fresh off the table is not your final size. For some guys, it can take a few months for everything to settle to its final size. The
PMMA will never go away unless you have it removed. The only thing that can diminish is your collagen surrounding it.
give Dr. C the carte blanche,
Talk with your doctor and explain your goals. What size you want to be, shape, any areas of concern, etc. If you choose to go with Dr. C, then yes, I would allow him to use his judgement after you have had that discussion.
don\'t massage or else you\'ll clump up the
PMMA beads
I think you have missed this one a little bit. Post-op care is vital. It is a major, major factor in the final outcome. You are going to want to massage your penis and feel for any lumps, divots, etc. You are not massaging for the sake of massaging, but to get the best, uniform outcome. The first few days following the procedure, your job is to watch your penis like a hawk. If you can\'t do that, don\'t get
PMMA.
Do I have to take Viagra after the procedure to ensure I don\'t turtle while the
PMMA is settling?
No, you do not have to take Viagra after the procedure. Some guys will get
Cialis to take for the first little bit following the procedure because it stays in the body for about 24 hours and helps to keep the penis
Hanging fuller. Some take Flomax for the same outcome. You certainly want to keep your penis extended as often as possible (either with
Erection or otherwise) while the carrier is being absorbed. This generally takes around 3 days for the majority of it go away. After that, the product is where it is going to be for the most part. It can probably still be manipulated to some degree after this, but it will be more difficult.
Stay realistic with your expectations. Keep things in proportion to your glans. If you have a 5.5\" shaft
Girth and a 3.5\" glans
Girth, it is more than likely going to look odd and unnatural. If your goal is to maintain a natural aesthetic, you have to keep the two balanced.
