 Thanks all for your comments, and to the Dr for his medical opinion.

From what Dr Oates has written, that the reasons for retraction aren't solved by Ligamentolysis, it would seem sensible (to me) to conclude that the causes of retraction are not removed by ligementolysis (ie cold, fear, exercise) but that the effect is reduced because there is less capability to drawn back - the suspensory ligament has been severed.

Similarly, and as reported from the Dr's patients, it seems as if HA fillers do provide some resistance to retraction so that's really positive. I'm not likely to sport an 'innie' myself, unless I take an ice bath, so although I will retract in most circumstances its not as bad as that; maybe that's good enough.

Personally, I think my approach will be:

1. HA filler and see how it goes.
2. Fat pad lipo if my diet doesn't pay off and I feel it's going to tip the balance.
3. Ligamentolysis

May combine 2 &amp; 3 for cost &amp; ease and if it really seems like I have to go with Ligamentolysis, in which case why not do lipo at the same time.

It's your body and your choice, but you really should consider putting weight loss as first, and not just like a new year's wish, but really as commitment. I don't know your current weight, but I had my first HA done as a "present" for losing 5kg and my next HA, I will do only after I lost 10kg.

 I have Reduktion penis, i make lipo,but lipo dont help,
I dont no why not the clinics Research in this point,
I think 100% the turtle problem is a Nervus problem in the urinary tract ,i dont now how is the penis nerv Syndrom involtation in this problem,but we see when you make hylaron filler thats effektive and phalllotox in dartos nern is 3 month effektive too but the problem from phallotox is that the testitis hang too and this can make Infility child problem.
I hope we can find the nerve problem in future for this turtle problem,doctors please make more Research, for turtle penis,
at the Moment i see that testestorun naturel booster meditation and penis stretcher can help and hylaron filler,

But dont make lipo when your fat depot extreme, and dont cut the ligament!!! ####  Attachment P\_20210222\_161425.jpg not found

the problem is the scar after operstion they can more Retraction the penis

 Lipo or fat cutting in this Arena is only effective for burried hidden penis ,
but dont for retraction turtle penis!!!
The Kind for turtle penis is the nerve system in the Urology area and the immunsystem with hormons-testestoron...
In my next life i study real medicine and help for all,i dont now why clinics bring not results and make only the same old techniques and make not Research and make bla bla bla???

 It would be nice if there were treatments that could resolve Turtling, and I do know alpha blockers have been effective to some extent in this regard (with medical supervision, of course). Heck for me, Anti-Turtling &gt; Lengthening if I had to choose one and not the other (and I'm very average in length).

 Thanks for all the posts on this topic.

I agree with the comment about weight loss - yes, in practice I should focus on that first and then investigate corrective actions like fillers &amp; surgery. In practice, it's happening in parallel to my investigations and decisions, safe weight loss takes time and I'd like to treat myself to HA filler (say) as a reward for losing x Kg of weight. Haven't worked out what x is yet ![:)](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/media/kunena/emoticons/8.png ":)") could be 10Kg, could be getting under 100Kg which is slightly over 10Kg away. Depends!
