So I took the plunge and made my way down to TJ. It was incredibly nerve-wracking and very difficult to do. I've always been very against "surgery". I always thought that the risk-reward was not near good enough, and that natural methods were both more safe and effective. But after doing quite a bit of research into PMMA and Dr. Casavantes, and seeing real world results of all the guys here, I just did it.
Once I got into the office the entire staff there were awesome and did a great job with the whole visit. I think I got 20cc total, some 20% and some 5%. It was a bit painful at times, painless at other times, but no worse than getting a tattoo (on some other part of the body that is, a dick tattoo would definitely be more painful).
Starting stats: flaccid girth 4.5", erect girth about 5.75"-6".
It's pretty damn fat right now but I expect it to go down after the swelling goes away. I'm not even bothering to measure or take pictures since it's going to change quite a bit in the next few days. I'll probably do all that in a week or however long it takes, and post some before pics. Everyone has been very helpful on here and I think I should return the favor and add my share.
I've been thinking of taking some supplements to help with the process. I know there are some like vitamin C and lysine that many women take for collagen growth to help with wrinkles. It's pretty well documented these work, just not sure if it would actually help with PMMA. In theory if most of the growth comes from collagen then supplying the body with the nutrients it needs to produce it would only help achieve the best results possible. You never know though, it could not help at all (most probable), or even have the opposite effect.
Well I guess there's nothing for me to do now but go streaking down my street for a bit lol.

Wassup Mr. Deezy
Thanks for sharing and we wish you much success! I also will be heading down in about a week.
Do you feel that once is enough or will you be heading back down for a second round once your healing has completed ?
When you put the before and after pics up can you please take them from at least two angles so that we newbies can get a good idea of exactly how it looks after the transformation. We all appreciate the feedback and again congratulations on your new tool!

Thanks guys.
Wisher yes I don't think it was needed but everyone has different goals. Most women were pretty happy before, but this is just something for myself along the lines of getting back in shape. I know men tend to overestimate how important it is to women, but whatever will help give a boost in confidence is always good.
Batman I'm not sure if I'll go back for a 2nd full session, we'll see how this plays out in a month or two. I think it would be a good idea for most guys to go back for a touch up to make sure its exactly how you want it, you're going to live with it for life after all haha.
It's been 2 days are going pretty well so far, bruising is going away but still sore and swollen. For recovery I'm taking arnica and glutamine which I've used before and helps healing, as well as extra protein powder and vitamins. I'm taking 5g of vitamin C a day and 2g of lysine. I'm hoping with the right nutrition I'll recover faster and maximize my results.
Funny enough I'm going to try to hide this from my girlfriend. She's out of town for a while, we'll see what happens when she gets back. Not sure how I'm going to explain it. Maybe I won't? Just pretend nothing happened. It helps the fact that it grows a bit over time rather than you come home with a completely different body part. I guess it will depend how much of a gain I get, 1/2" I should be able to play it off, a full inch and it might be very noticeable, especially with oral.

Much respect on taking the plunge mrdeezy, thanks for sharing.
I've always been of the same mindset regarding surgery, but I must admit PMMA is very appealing to someone with an erect girth the same size as your previous flaccid. May I ask what exactly put you "over the fence" in terms of deciding to take the plunge? Was there a certain concern that was adequately addressed, and if so would you mind sharing?

If I get it done, I will just take a "business trip" for a week or two and eventually just blame the increase on pumping. My girlfriend knows that I do manual PE, but I don't think I could ever give her that kind of ammunition of knowing about PE surgery. I completely understand telling a wife since she would likely just take it as a gift, but not a girlfriend that I don't even live with. Other PMMA vets, how likely do you see this as working for an unmarried guy with a girlfriend? How many days would you say it took you, before the cannula holes were fully healed, the bruising was gone, and the swelling was down enough where you could legitimately pass the gains off as pumping? |

May I ask what exactly put you "over the fence" in terms of deciding to take the plunge? Was there a certain concern that was adequately addressed, and if so would you mind sharing? Thanks alot. I'd say it is the proven track record of the material and the procedure. It's been used for many years, from a few cc's to hundreds, in various parts of the body. I couldn't find many instances of complications. There are some cases of course, but rare. It's a numbers game. From what I can see, the risks are low enough to make it worthwhile. Every day you walk outside you are risking your life and safety, there are risks no matter what and you just have to make sure it's worth it. The biggest drawbacks I think are the fact that it hasn't been used for PE for long, so we don't know the long term effect on erectile function etc. And there's uncertainty about getting an even result, I know I'll need to have some things fixed already. |

The swelling and bruising is almost gone at this point. There was an odd itchy feeling in the beginning that's almost gone as well. Tomorrow is the one week point, I'll measure and take pics then.

I really don't think there will be any issue with erections, if anything they may be harder. But I agree, the biggest issue of all I think is the aesthetic one. You may end up with a penis that is not completely symmetrical and possibly a few minor bumps. Touch ups should correct most problems but not 100%. For the extra girth I personally think it's a trade worth making. But each must make their own decision.

I must be horrible with cameras because I couldn't take a decent photo that wasn't blurry with a bad angle. Aside from that the healing is going well, I measured today and it came out to around 6.5" mid shaft, at the base 7. So that means so far the gains are just like everyone else .5-.75". Almost all the swelling is gone except for a few spots where the injections were. I'll measure every Friday to track my progress until the 6 weeks are up.
It will be interested to see what happens with the girlfriend, she's the type of person that's pretty quick and doesn't let anything slide without making a big deal, so it's going to be tricky. I'll have to play it off like it was from pumping like gamecock said, or something along those lines.

I was advised to keep an eye on it and wait a week or so or until healing has completed. Luckily it has improved quite a bit and I don't think it's going to be a problem. I'm guessing it was just part of the bruising. I still have some bruising and swollen blood vessels.
