Five Days After Implant

[WalterG3]

So this is the second attempt to post an update on my progress post-implant. My dog ate the first draft, and it didn’t save. Ugh! Long story short, I was implanted Monday morning by Lawrence Levine of Rush University in Chicago. I was implanted with a 28cm Titan Touch plus a 2cm RTE. I left the SurgiCenter about 90% inflated as I was draining pretty severely. Dr. Levine deflated me to about 60% in his office the next day. The first evening was miserable, but the discomfort has subsided significantly in the days since.

As you’ll note in the picture below, I am close to 7”’at 60-70% inflation. Have not measured girth yet. So far, I am grateful that I made the decision to join the “Bionic Brotherhood”, but I also expect the next steps in my journey (i.e.: inflating/deflating to cycle) to be daunting.

Anyway, that’s all I’ve got. HNY to all!!

Congratulations. They did a good job!

What was your pre-op length?

Nice work, bro! really nice work. Please share more infos. What size (lenght and girth) did you have pre-op? When are you going to full inflate? Did your glans engorge before the surgery, and does it engorge now?

Welcome in the brotherhood (which im not still part of, unfortunately)

Welcome & Congrats.

Dr. Levine was also my surgeon. I am 3 weeks 5 days post op. They had me 60-70% inflated for 2 weeks before totally deflating me due to pain. Scrotum swelling has reduced significantly but soreness remains. I’m also still experiencing penile pain which varies day to day and hour to hour. Best of luck!

Thanks for your well wishes! My pre-op length was close to 8 inches. As I haven’t fully inflated yet, I have no idea where I’ll end up length/girth-wise.

I believe I’ll be fully inflated in a few weeks. My glans inflated with Cialis and Trimix, and it seems like it wants to engorge now. I’ll keep everyone posted on how things end up.

A couple of questions for you:

1) If you care to share, what were your pre-op length/girth measurements?

2) Has Dr. Levine advised you about a cycling schedule?

and maybe a third:

3) Did you do any VED prior to surgery?

I don't understand this. This guy has a photo of a dick that has no signs of a surgery even the photo should have been taken 5 days after the operation. And he says that it is 60% inflated. To me it seems to be 100% inflated.

So yes, this is five days post-implant. My implant was placed using the penoscrotal approach, so there would be no visible scars (If you looked at my scrotum, you’d see it looks like something out of a Frankenstein movie.) And while I was inflated to 90% post-op to control the drainage, I have yet to be fully inflated.

Thanks for your interest, as well as giving me the opportunity to clarify. HNY!
