I'm providing a 3-year follow up to my HA filler procedure done with Dr. Gonzales (in Los Angeles), then with William (the founder of @PhalloFILL
) in Dallas. Overall, I'd say I'm satisfied with the procedure.
- Surprisingly, the filler has basically entirely stayed. I could be mistaken, but I don't think I've noticed any loss in size even after 3 years.
- I've gotten many compliments from women on the girth and size.
- My only (slight) dissatisfaction is that the filler is relatively uneven, with it thicker closer to the head than it is at the shaft and also a (tiny bit) lumpy, and I now want to go back to even it out. I don't think this is either Will or Dr. Gonzales's fault. The filler just tends to migrate. I wore the post-op sleeve and even the helmet (which prevents retraction and keeps it in place) but I guess it still migrated after the 3-week period.
My only question is what's the best path forward to fixing this.
- Who's the best provider in or near SoCal? Is it Dr. Tsay?
- Is there anyone in the network that is an expert at aesthetics / crafting and shaping to make it look as even as possible?
- PhalloFill uses Versa by Revenesse. Dr. Tsay uses Juvederm. Is there one that's better than the other for preventing filler migration?
Please note this should NOT to construed as a negative review of Dr. Gonzales, William, or PhalloFill. I'm still very much a fan of theirs and their expertise as well as commitment to ethics and customer service. It would just be better to not have to travel to Dallas again if there's someone here locally that would do a great job of maximizing aesthetics and symmetry.
@Skeptical_One
, would welcome your thoughts. Thank you.
I have a couple rules I stick by -- firstly, I try to remain impartial when & where I can if it involves multiple Sponsors -- my goal is to foster a Network of the Leading Innovators in the field while simultaneously encouraging healthy competition, which in turn breeds innovation & value for my Readership and the overall Online PE Community.
Secondly, there are few times I do get involved with helping determine the
"best fit" for a fellow Member -- one of them being the rule that:
if you are satisfied with your original Practitioner & Results, stick with them. It's akin to having a regular Barber or Bartender, they appreciate you as a
regular, while also having the most recent information on your Medical File in terms of where you started, what your goals are, where you are now, and what you need moving forward.
So with that being said, William of PhalloFILL Dallas would be the obvious go -- you are happy with your results, you have
an unbelievable retention age for Hyaluronic Acid (HA), and while I can't know for certain if the filler and/or technique played a role, it's safe to say that if it did, you'd be guaranteed comparable results with William.
I do want to stress that (1) that isn't to say other Providers can't achieve similar results and (2) I can't know for certain what played the most significant role in your HA retention (in other words, how much of it was PhalloFILL or how much of it was your own body's physiology; likely a mix of both if I were to make an educated guess) -- but given that you observed a
proven Provider with
@PhalloFILL
, it would make no sense to go with anyone else as of now.
Since you asked, if logistics were of extreme importance and Dallas wasn't feasible (at least in the time frame you're looking at), then yes, Dr. Tsay would be the best Provider for HA that I would vouch for in Southern California. I can see you certainly being satisfied with Dr. Tsay's work (he's well reviewed as an Injector for all areas of the body), but since I can't know for certain what is responsible for this remarkable HA shelf-life you're experiencing, and Dr. Tsay does have his own HA preference (as well as the possibility of proprietary factors like methodology and technique varying Clinic-to-Clinic), I can't say your end results with Dr. Tsay would be the same, more, or less better than your last session (with PhalloFILL) -- but worst case scenario I don't think it would be less better by much, and best case scenario, you'd get comparable results.
So to summarize, I would try and make PhalloFILL Dallas (William) your target destination, even if it means waiting a certain amount of time to make the logistics work. And if there are reasons Dallas simply won't work for the timeframe you need fulfilled, Dr. Tsay would be the best alternative for your given situation.
