Mannnn not the post I wanted to be making but round 3 has been more bad than good, and I’m not even sure if there’s any good I can point to at this moment. 15 days post procedure.
I mentioned in
@Gh847
‘s thread that I had a similar issue to him and some others within the thread regarding a pronounced ridge at the bottom side of the base on one side, where there seems to be a clumping and flaring of filler. That part is improving but it’s quite annoying that it’s on one side. Additional filler on the opposite side would balance this out so while this sucks, I feel like there’s a path forward (with more $ of course).
Another issue that is more concerning is new nodules and these white head type dots around the neck. It’s to the point I’m reluctant to show my wife my D because it looks like STDs. Is this an infection? No clear answer from AD yet. The nodules can best be described as feeling like Nerd candies—some are clusters , some are a single pellet.
I originally had 2 of these pellet type nodules plus the fibrotic cord which were hit with kenalog. Now I have so many nodules I can’t even count them all. Why this is concerning is that the kenalog didn’t do much of anything to the original nodules.
And here’s the kicker—I went from MSEG 5.9-6” to 6.0-6.1”. I gained about .5” at the base from the clump. I also had a divot on my left side I wanted addressed that remains.
I hate to say anything bad about AD as I believe they are ethical and professional (I would not have gone to them three times if I thought otherwise) but I also don’t want to gaslight myself because the reality is my D is 100% worse off for having gone for round 3. So as of right now, I paid over $5000 for the procedure, flight, hotel for marginal gains, numerous nodules, an overall misshaped D that I’m embarrassed to show my super supportive wife.
I’ve had a couple emails back and forth with AD but haven’t learned anything definitive. I’ve asked to get an opinion from Dr Casavantes but have not heard back.
