TOPIC: Russian Adventure - Ligament cut with webbing removal

Hi Teninch,


Thanks for your great suggestions and the methods you developed. That\'s quite a contribution to the community, and I especially am grateful as I got the ligament cut and must wait for the stitches to heal before doing any aggressive stretching since the silicon cup won\'t hold much pressure unless it is down onto the cut tissues, which is out of the question. So I will have to make up for missed aggressive stretching later, as my webbing reduction going almost up to the glans makes it hard to use a device.


I shall try your method which carries the promise of your success. I only hope to prevent the reattachment of the ligaments despite the spacers, and hopefully to pull out some of the length which didn\'t really come out when he cut the ligaments. When I asked him how much length he was able to gain, he replied \"very little, very little\" and then quickly changed topics. So it looks like there wasn\'t any hidden treasure trove even of Flaccid length stored away inside my entrails, unlike some who gain quite a few inches in a fell swoop. It\'s what is called the genetic lottery...

Latest Update


I had most of the remaining stitches taken out, and there will still be a few to remove next Monday. The nurse has a lot of experience doing so, and she said that Dr Bachtiyarov must have had some incredible microscopes while stitching me up, because he also used a very thin additional stitch alongside the regular stitches which was so small that she missed it the first time around. She was very impressed as no doctor in France is as skilled as this. A testimonial to the experience and competence of the operating surgeon.


She also mentioned that some stitches were slower in healing due to them being placed \"in the fold\" which I didn\'t really understand until I realized that this was a fold which I never had before, which separates the ball sack from the shaft, and which was created by special scrotoplasty cut aways and stitching by Dr Backtiyarov who is clearly as experienced at this as they get.

I help any way I can!

I am so super curious to see post surgery photos of your webbing Removal, would you be willing upload any time soon?

Great account HC - thanks for sharing. I\'m also considering lig cut and had been thinking of Gary Alter in CA, but this is making me re-consider Kaliningrad.

I\'m just wondering if you see any visible change in length immediately post-surgery?

Also, what stretching regimen do you plan to follow - how long each day?

Keep healing.

@TenInchGoal

Hi Ten Inch, yeah I will be posting but was waiting for all the stitching to be out to assemble my photos and try again to upload. I got a bit discouraged last fall when I tried to upload to my progress report, that was a time when the website was having technical glitches with uploads. I see that this has since been fixed, so I must assemble my pictures. Some of my Phalloplasty photos are on cell phones, others on cameras, and they are also stored on various computers which either work or need attending to. Fortunately for this procedure, it will be easier as most are on my cell phone which came in handy while traveling.

Actually, just as with another member here who also got this same ligament cut and webbing reduction before me at Clinic Brazil in Kaliningrad, there is not a considerable instant lengthening with the procedure done through the scrotum as there might be sometimes when done through the pelvis. This is, I think, due to the fact that when done through the pelvis the surgeon can actually wedge surgical tools into the body and pry the penis out from the severed area, whereas when accessing it from the underside through one\'s anatomy, there is no such leverage available. This is why the separation and pulling out must be done more intensely, after the procedure, using stretching tools and manual stretching also, as I intend to follow Ten Inch\'s advice and give it a tug.

I find the compromise worthwhile, as if you go with a shaved pelvis as is becoming increasingly the trend, as I noted in swinging clubs and sauna houses, then it is nice to have no visible telltale scars in that location. However, it does maintain the suspense and put a bit more stress on you, as you become after surgery the one responsible for delivering final results after the procedure. This is not something every patient wants to do, as often one resorts to surgery just to \"take care of things\" and no longer have to deal with a problem. That isn\'t the case here, as the results will come later, over several months time.

My main concern has been the ability to stretch much when one\'s unit is entirely stitched up. I had to be careful not to tear up the surgical Sutures or prevent healing, so it is stressful to pull on a body part forcefully when it is destined to be left alone to heal and recover. Now that my stitches are practically all out, it has regained some flexibility and seems less vulnerable as it is able to stretch everywhere, including along the scar line. But I do want that to also disappear so I am increasing gradually the pressure on my unit as it heals. I expect in a week\'s time to be really going at it, possibly with weights, but for now it is light tension, having stretched it mostly upwards so as to not fold it downwards while the stitches healed in a proper outstretched position.

UPDATE after week 3 of scrotal entry ligament cut:


My surgery gave me about an extra Inch in Flaccid length, so I am quite content with having had my ligaments cut by Dr Bachtiyarov in Kaliningrad, he is to my knowledge the world\'s leading specialist in scrotal ligament cuts.

I didn\'t post this result before, because I actually was unable to notice that I had achieved any gain. And this is because I had assumed that extra Flaccid length would improve my Flaccid appearance, which it did not. This is no fault of Clinic Brazil which did a perfect job on every level. It is due to the PMMA masking these gains. This is because the aesthetic issue I had with my Flaccid, which was caused by PMMA, was not resolved by simply adding length to my Flaccid. I had hoped and even expected otherwise. I assumed that it would be fixed automatically. I was convinced that by gaining more Flaccid length. That was because I hadn\'t fully understood my problem.

My thick PMMA envelope won\'t retract with the rest of my unit. I wonder if this is due to 30% giving stiffer collagen versus lesser concentrations of PMMA? Or it might be due to the thickness creating more resistance to retraction. Finally it might be due to the fact that my base is not filled, creating a heavy sheath which drops down over my rather small glans when my unit is at rest and pointed downward.

I was hoping the ligament cut would correct an aesthetic problem, which actually cannot be resolved by added length. I wonder if there even is a solution to such a problem, aside from surgically stitching one\'s thick PMMA layer to the pelvis? I know I am being extreme here, but I find that my situation is unusual to say the least, and it is not clear to me at present how to solve the problem. Nurse Wade had warned me before getting my third session with 30% for added Girth that it would probably give me the pig in the blanket effect due to my short length. But I thought this would be temporary and that if I gained length it could be solved. Not so? Is there a coefficient of length x Girth beyond which there is no return?

Regardless, my status doesn\'t make sense. I am hoping it is because the PMMA doesn\'t reach my base. It is thick on the two thirds of the shaft near the glans and quite thin at the bottom third of the shaft, making it seem unsheathed. Possibly by adding PMMA to the bottom third, it won\'t tend to fall downwards towards the tip when Flaccid? If so, wouldn\'t it need to reach upwards into the pelvis and extend outwards to anchor it? I hope it can and that this might work, as otherwise I will have to stay hidden from view, only exposing it to a hot babe once it is Erect and quickly tucking it out of sight when it goes limp.

I notice that when Flaccid, if I pull up this outer layer of PMMA collagen until it reaches my pelvis, my unit looks totally natural with my glans exposed. If I let go, the entire thick outer layer falls down with gravity, and wraps around my glans hiding all but the tip. It also makes the outer layer bulge out in a very unsightly bell shape.

Nobody is about to \"ring my gong\" with a penile appearance like that, and I fear the response when I head to the nude beach this summer. Not that I am trying to be admired, only I don\'t want to gross them out- that is not what Phalloplasty is about! It is supposed to be aesthetic surgery too. I retain the hope that this June Dr C will provide a super solution - he has already gotten me out of a far more upsetting problem in the past.

UPDATE one month after scrotal entry ligament cut:


The scar has lessened and almost evened out. The lump between my Balls directly underneath the scar in the scrotum is slightly smaller, more like a large acorn instead of a walnut. On instructions of my massage therapist (she wouldn\'t do it herself) I am gently pressing on it to enhance drainage irrigation, as well as rubbing in specific ways lymphatic glands on the inside of my thighs, at the crotch line at the top of the thighs all the way back to the scrotum.


My Flaccid seems about one Inch longer. This is especially visible because before surgery, there was a section at the base of my unit which was narrower, not having gotten as much PMMA as the rest of the shaft. This narrow section is now longer, making the thicker area with PMMA enhanced Girth starting further away from my pelvis. I expect this will make for a longer section at the base to fill with more CC\'s of 30% PMMA. I don\'t know yet if I will want any more PMMA at the tip, even 10% or less.


The webbing reduction is a SUCCESS. I highly recommend Dr Bachtiyarov for this procedure. He did what he called Full Scrotoplasty because my skin was so messed up and the webbing reached so high up the shaft that it was like a broad supple tent dangling off a single picket. His results are remarkable. A lady who knew me well before says that sex is incomparable now, that she had no idea how good it could feel. I sense I have a much more adapted unit which simply slips in and out with great ease, very naturally. Before it used to tug, which I definitely noticed, but I had no idea it changed the sensation for the ladies.


I am looking forward to rapid healing of the long scar that reaches from my crotch to one Inch from the glans, before experimenting with new conquests. Several have been in the sidelines, patiently awaiting my good graces. Maybe in a week or two, if I am feeling adventurous, but I don\'t want to have to explain away a huge scar. You can imagine, with stiff 30% PMMA and disproportionate dimensions, it could quickly look like I had an artificial Dick inserted. In a sense I did, but my unit is \"home grown\" and not entirely artificial. I consider it to be artificially stimulated natural growth. LOL.

PHOTOS


Hi PhalloBoards Friends -


I have finally sorted out and assembled photos to be able to share with you more of my trip to Kaliningrad. I included a few snapshots of Berlin and travel there.

I will be posting them in several series. First some Pre-surgery before photos. Then travel to Berlin. Then Kaliningrad and the Clinic. Then Post-surgery photos. After the return to Berlin. At last the scar healing.

More to come.

PRE-SURGERY PHOTOS


Hi Friends-


Here are a few pre-surgery photos. The webbing is now all gone, but it went way up the shaft. You will notice later how high up the stitching went. My surgeon said that he had to do a full SCROTOPLASTY to give my skin a proper shape. Please note that this condition got a lot worse with PMMA injections and the added Girth which drew my skin upwards from the scrotum. I recommend for those who may need this done, to wait until they are at near final Girth before getting the skin reshaped.


Photos are first of Webbing, then before Liposuction showing bloated lower abdomen, pelvis and love handles. I have since had them all reduced significantly at Clinic Brazil in Kaliningrad.

Surgeon and Clinic Photos


Hi guys,


Next you shall see some pictures of my Surgeon and of Clinic Brazil.


Doctor Oleg Bakhtiyarov is a highly competent and very experienced Phalloplasty surgeon. He used to totally reconstruct penises (war and accident victims?) using the patient\'s shoulder muscles. He is also the only doctor currently offering ligament cuts from the scrotum, making an incision at the bottom of the ball sack and leaving next to no detectable trace of this intervention. His method is kept secret but even when you know how he proceeds, it defies the imagination as to the skill level required to do so successfully.


Other surgeons cannot comprehend how it is feasible, yet he does this very successfully. There is no tell-tale scar on your pelvis, so nobody could ever know you had Phalloplasty since the scar is practically invisible in your scrotum and it follows your natural symmetry separating line which is already there. He also performs excellent webbing reduction as well as many other Phalloplasty and more traditional cosmetic surgery interventions. I highly recommend his work.

Post-Operative Photos


These are pictures taken immediately after waking up from surgery, lying in bed with an intravenous feed hooked up. They show my unit very swollen, which makes sense as I just underwent traumatic surgery with both ligament cuts from within and radical scrotoplasty.


You will see the liposuction bandages, the scrotoplasty bandages, the compression garment worn to hold tissues in place after liposuction, and the All Day Stretcher worn in either leg and chest traction positions.


HC

Recovery Stretching and Compression


The following photos show recovery stages of stretching to help pull out after the ligament cut as well as compressing the abdomen, pelvis and love handles where liposuction took place. You will see the corrugated metal wobbly effect of the flesh emptied of its fat, and a lot of bruising of course. This is all gone now, one month later. I did have to wear the compression garment for a full month day and night, and it wasn\'t exactly comfortable. But one must make sure that all one\'s tissues remain in place to avoid complications and distorsions.


HC
PS. Also included is a photo of the fire axe on the clinic wall, it served for a joke with them as they do offer Penis Removal on their price list LOL.

KALININGRAD


Here you will see some photo\'s taken during the drive to the airport in Alexander\'s car (aka Sasha). It is a nice city worth a visit if you aren\'t taken by the hurry. There is obviously a lot more to see, as we didn\'t have time to go into the city center. The small wooden house can be seen just a block away from the modern Clinic Brazil, on a walk to the local supermarket.

TRIP BACK TO BERLIN


These are photos of the trip back to Berlin from the Kaliningrad Airport where, from the shuttle bus we could see a large fire at the end of the runway right behind our airplane. The propellor plane was fun to fly in and Berlin is a very interesting city to visit. I also went to Liquidrom before the surgery on the way to Russia, which is a cool nude coed spa and sauna with a great hot tub outdoors in the snow and a sound animated salt water pool plus a steam bath and 3 different saunas plus a lounge and very nice bar.


Liquidrom Spa Berlin


Another amusing thing is that Air Berlin serves a free snack, yet it is in helpings which are not exactly huge. The drink is a record breaking 15cl, not exactly your Big Gulp! You will see the Berlin subway called the S-Bahn, the very modern Berlin Philharmonic building, the suspension roof Cultural Center, the river near Museum Island, several museum exhibits stolen from Greece along with museum entrance architecture and the Brandenburg Gate.


Cheers,


HC

RECOVERY PHOTOS


Here you will see just a few snapshots of my recovery after the surgery and liposuction. The stitches are shown at various stages of healing and of stitching Removal. It took 3 sessions to complete the Removal of stitches by a very careful and capable nurse. She had never seen such precise and high quality stitching in her career, which attests to the degree of professionalism of Clinic Brazil. More photos shall be added later.
