RegularGuy - Elist Implant Progress

[mustang2020]

I am considering some kind of an upgrade.

Pre op erect girth was about 5 inches along the shaft. Post op it is close to 7 at base, 6.5 mid and about 5.5 behind glans.

Yes, it has been mostly positive with sex after the glans pain had gone, which had lasted for months. Most girls liked to be on top and some would come quickly.

I had a girl who could not take it even half way, but she was Asian and very very small with no kids...It was actually frustrating because we could not finish sex and we lost interest. But over all, sexually it is positive. The pain at the glans and the loss of an inch of erect length is the worst part of it. I do plan to get my length back some how.

Well, I wish you and all of us the best. May be in time you will decide what ever will make you happier.

Have you considered PMMA or FFT or?

Hi Yardstick
So how is the length issue going? What's the verdict on the girth gains?

[regularguy]

A quick update...

No real changes ..... still no healing issues, length is still same as pre surgery - no loss, no gain. Girth gain is still very good, no change. The only slight change I do see is that my incision has moved lower towards the base of my penis. I attribute this to more skin migration / growth on shaft and weight of implant slowly pulling incision down. My shaft skin is now much looser than it was, probably due to skin growth. It is looking more natural.

Sex is great - the girth seems to make quite a bit of difference and sure is a confidence builder to see the reactions it gets.

happy to hear your procedure is going well.. i think if the incision lowered your penis may be growing a little from the weight of the implant. good your enjoying it already.

Hi all,

Dropping by for another update. Doing very well. I wanted to give a quick recap for those that dont want to read the whole thread.

Had surgery in Nov right before Thanksgiving via Dr. Elist. Verified that I got the newest "softer" material. I assume he used latest / best surgical techniques, but I have no way of knowing that. I got implant stitched internally just behind glans. I had 8 weeks of recovery where I wrapped and milked.

Pre surgery 4L x 4G flaccid and 6.5L x 5G erect. After surgery 5.5L x 5 - 5.5G flaccid and 6.5L x 6-7G depending on where measured. Shaft skin was very tight early on but currently I have some slack/wrinkle back, which looks more natural than it did.

Pain for me was primarily from incision stitches. I have never once felt pain at internal stitching behind glans. Once I got incision stitches cut / removed at 5 week after visit that pain went away.

Incision scar is moving down closer to base of penis. I am told this is where it will end up over time. Doesn't really bother me or my wife so not an issue, but if I was single I would have to explain since I have lighter body hair and scar can be seen even with hair growth returned.

Sex with it is really fun. My wife was scared it would be too big, but has happily found out otherwise and seems more excited about it than me - she is really enjoying it.

I described the implant material earlier - but that may not give you an idea of how soft or firm it is. I would say it is like a "gummy bear" candy, but slightly firmer. If you have seen the Dr. Scholls foot pads - the gel ones, it is similar to that in consistency. It had a fiber mesh embedded in it that keeps it from tearing apart. A split is built in the top side down the middle lengthwise so that when you go erect the implant can move outward to let your natural corpus fill with blood and expand.

Overall, I know there are issues with Dr. E. My experience has been good. I don't know if I was lucky, or if his procedures and material have improved, or if I somehow had/have a physical makeup that is different from others and made my experience good. I wish I knew so I could share as I think we all want to know that. I guess all I can do is share as I progress along and hope my information helps someone else whether they get this procedure or not.

Take care all,

And to Mustang - I wish you all the best in your decision. I really hope whatever you decide works out for you.

How is the detectability? If your lady did not know you an implant, do you think she would know? How is the transition from the glans to the shaft?

[mustang2020]

RG, Thx. I am really torn between trying the new implant or going for PMMA. As most of you know, my biggest fear is that if for what ever reason one must remove the PMMA then that would be a huge concern and a complicated surgery. While the implant has its own set of problems, I am told by the few who had it removed that that it was a fairly quick procedure to do (of course there is the potential loss of erect length problem with removal).

Will keep you posted..

well I have to say thanks R.G I was completly undisided till now. I've spoke with Elist a few tears ago and oppted to wait . I'm glad I did the cost has gone up but onley 1500 bucks. Also he says he dos'nt do the cutting uf the lingament any more . Thats o.K with me its probily from retraction issues witch tell me he realy cares about these things. I'm long enouph for most women anyway. Thanks again for your time I'm real happy for your success .God Bless

With all due respect johnyjumper, is English your second language? That is fine if it is, but if it isn't, your recent postings have been way too botched in the grammar/spelling department. While we don't normally enforce spelling, grammar, and punctuation, we do expect native-English speakers to proof-read postings. A typo here and there is okay, but your posts have been full of them. This isn't any kind of warning, just a reminder (assuming you are a native-English speaking person).

Hi Johnyjumper

You say: "well I have to say thanks R.G I was completely undecided till now."

*Just curios… You were hesitant about getting the implant until you read the "success" of Regularguy’s implant?. Have you done any other research regarding the implant on this site or is it restricted to this one thread?
What's more, in "Uncle J's testicle/penis Elist implant" thread you say you have been on MNS for “years” , but it’s this one thread in which "Regularguy" readily admits that his success is pretty much a fluke that has sold you on this procedure? I'm guessing your blanking out all the implant horror stories and the most recent scandal of an implant shill being employed.

You say: "Also he says he doesn't do the cutting of the ligament any more . Thats o.K with me its probably from retraction issues which tells me he really cares about these things."

*This tells you that he really cares? The fact that your PE surgeon is trying to avoid shortening your penis in a penis enlargement operation?
BTW, This "not cutting the Ligament" is news to me. It took Dr. Elist 15 years and hundreds of PE surgeries for him to come to this conclusion? Not a very impressive learning curve.


I admire your tenacity
Hope you can sleep at night

Hi all,

Wow - a lot of discussion since I last checked in. First, let me say I am a bit uncomfortable that anyone would make a decision based on my posts alone. I would hope that anyone would read as many threads as possible - as well as do whatever other research they could before making any decisions about penile enhancement of any kind. There are some great guys on here and I have learned so much by reading accounts of others experiences and info they have discovered and shared.

I am like Stalemango - I made a decision on what seems now as very little research and investigation. I would never do that again, and in that respect I do consider myself lucky in that SO FAR things are going well for me. But I would never advise that anyone else do this. Knowing what I know now, I would value the input that can be found here and use that info, along with other research and info I could gather to make a final call. In the end every procedure has some risk and that is an individual call. But I certainly would use as much input as I could get to help make that call.

To anyone reading - most of the guys posting can provide you with some great info and it is provided for your benefit. Use it. I don't know if I am lucky or if I am representative of typical results. I just don't know. I do know I believe and respect the experience of others and if they say they had problems I believe it. This is a great board and I wish I had known of it before my surgery because the answers to my questions are in various threads. If you follow any advice from me - follow the advice to read all accounts here and make that only PART of what you do to investigate whether or not any enhancement procedure is right for you.

Take care,

RG

Perhaps one of the best advice posts I've read on these forums! Happy to hear you are doing well post-op. Truth is, all of the surgical options out there pose some degree of risk (some more so than others) and it's ultimately our decision to assume those risks when opting for a certain procedure. The best thing you can do is research as much as you can, and even "wait out" as long as you can before making that one important decision.

Regularguy, hope you get a long life's worth of your new girth! I know you haven't been on as much, and it's only natural. As your healing is complete, and you move on with your life, you are probably less inclined to visit these boards. Understandably so. But if I may request...please check in from time to time, even if it's 3-6 months at a time. This way we can get some insight onto the long-term implications of the implant...something our community desperately needs. Thanks again for your insight and progress reporting!

I am glad to see what seems to be another successful procedure, this method is vary enticing to me, I don't understand when people complain about the hardness, I see it as a built in dild0 ready for action and once fully aroused lock and load. I do have a few question, if you don't mind?

Whats your opinion on the hardness?

Whats the end product look like, where it meets the gland?

When erect is it nice and heavy?

Do you believe, hard ruff sex can be dangerous to the stitching of the implant?

I would love to ramble on, but don't want to burn out my welcome, and if any other gentlemen with a bolt on would like to way in please, do so..

Regular Guy, I'm gald everything is working out for you. I'm at 5.5 months without major issues, everything is good.

Enjoy that thing...
