I am 6 months Post Round 3 and my lumps are identical, size and shape, to how they were on April 1 (procedure was march 24). I haven\'t done anything with those lumps because they aren\'t aesthetically problematic or very hard... but they haven\'t changed at all. The stuff I had cut out wouldn\'t have ever changed. It was too much
PMMA surrounded by scar tissue (the biopsy slides give a tiny sample of it).
I had 2 rounds go fine...and this was so different than the first 2, I knew very early that something was wrong.
In rounds 1 and 2, i had lumps go away by week 12, but they were not as dense or immobile as they were this time. Plus, I had lumps where
PMMA shouldn\'t even be - under my shaft... in the crevice between my
Balls and
Dick...it went wrong in more ways than just 1. There were some in the dermis, too...they weren\'t going anywhere which was bizarre considering how shallow they were.
I had the nodules removed with the assumption that there would be only a tiny <1/2 cm scar... but skin full of
PMMA doesn\'t heal well apparently...so that turned into a fiasco that dragged on for 2 mos (though other sites healed)
Jewdub - total
Removal might be more difficult than selective reduction through a deglove. I don\'t know who would agree to do it though. If you could just point out the worst areas to a surgeon, maybe they could dissect it off the
Dartos fascia, and you\'d lose no skin. I don\'t really know. Some might change...some might not. If you\'ve been through enough rounds, you\'ll probably have a better idea of how things should go.
It\'s like having colds all the time - and then when you get the flu... you know it\'s not a cold.
I fully admit I am impatient, and this didn\'t help things... BUT when the
Dermatologist I saw said that he\'s removed artefill from faces plenty of times (and treats melanomas and carcinomas) and it wouldn\'t go anywhere regardless of time...though injections could help (and we did them...but they did nothing)...I went ahead with the small
Nodule removals. The thing that created the mess was the size of a freaking pea. In a million years, i never expected to have an open wound like this.
