Hey everyone, I'm just curious what everyones experience has been post-op with growth and in what time period you experienced the most growth?

Dr. Hakky says size should be regained by week 12. I wonder if this has been others experience too?

I came out of surgery the same size I went in, so my cycling wasn't for size recovery, but to hopefully gain some. And I did get 3/4" in added length most of which occurred between the third and ninth month. Cycling is also important to keep tissue stretching so scar tissue doesn't form and restrict the implant's ability increase in size as you inflate. All of us are different and have a wide variety of experiences. Just be diligent about cycling!

I’m 4 months postop. Just now back to original length. Been cycling daily since week 6. As reported above, your mileage may vary. Hang in there and don’t be discouraged.

in other posts that I can't remember I've read that 7/8 days ago I found I gained 1/2 inch in length and 1cm in girth, I think your surgeon nailed it on me, today it's 13 weeks and 1 day

Post surgery my erection was short by more than a half inch, but using VED and Perito I gained that back plus another inch and a quarter over, I would estimate, 4-6 months.

I don't really feel it's my place to say that dude is wrong. But based on my personal experiences I don't understand how he expects people to regain size that fast. For me, I started cycling 35 days after surgery. At first after being really aggressive with the thing I was happy it seemed to shoot up fairly quickly. But I'm guessing that was nothing more than a good time to measure it or something, because after that it was an incredibly incremental process. And it's not consistent so it's difficult to keep track of it. For me three months out I was right at 8" and happy expecting to continue. After four months out? It was still right at 8" every time (I have pics of both, really I had a month where nothing changed and it stayed the same size). After that I'd sometimes get like 8.3" and like it. Next day maybe up a little more or down a little more. At some point it seems things seem consistent. Now every time I inflate with no arousal or any other tricks, I'm a touch over 9". If I'm fully inflated and watching porn/hot sex, I have successfully measured it about as good as I could do right at 9.5" or a touch over, confirming that size.

Took me 11 months until I was happy I was consistently above 9". And sorry if this reads like me showing off. But come on, what man wouldn't love suddenly becoming a dude with a 9" dick?

Unless Dr. Hakky surgeries are different or if he's super smart or even if not, if he's claiming 3 months time to regain size, I'm not sure how that would have been possible based off my experience (and, you know, only my experience). I mentioned how my 3 month length was 8". And 4 months out......nothing. I think it takes longer.

Your second sentence probably has the answer to your first. He has his patients start cycling from day 7 as it has been shown to lead to increased length.

I had the same observation 35 days of no cycling and no stretching of the tissue I would hypothesize leads to a much longer recovery. Same concept as it being easier to get back into shape after taking a week off working out vs several months.

As with others, I was over an inch short on first activation. By 4 months maybe half of it back and then it was so slow you could not measure it so I quit measuring except about once every 30-40 days. So by 8 months I was within a 1/4” of oem. By 10 months it seems back to full size plus a little girth. I started cycling at about 10-12 days and had sex about 21 days out. Cycled aggressively from about 4 weeks til 10-11 months when I reached pre implant size.

I'm still not a guy with any actual knowledge about this, but I don't think I agree. I understand your reasoning that starting earlier would lead to a quicker recovery, similarly to how it works in a gym. Now that I'm actually a dude who does go to the gym 7 days a week I know exactly what that is like. Hell, one day off makes things quite difficult.

But I don't buy it that 35 days would have such a serious effect on recovery time. Look at it this way:

I waited 35 days to cycle. Recovering my size back was very slow and incremental and took me like 10 or 11 months. Hakky starts to cycle 7 days after, then it takes only 3 months to recover. To use the gym analogy if I took a 35 days break from the gym, it's not gonna take me a year to get back. It will take me longer. But not that long/

Well, actually I don't even know. Just typing this out now I'm kinda slightly veering back towards your direction...like yeah, a 5 week break from exercise, then a 10 month recovery, compared to a 1 week break and then a 3 month recovery. That might be possible.

Curious if anyone out there also got their size back that quickly.
