However, things aren't that simple as the current techniques have a very poor track record and the consequences of a bad result can be utterly devastating.

However, if I was a woman, i'd never support my husband having any sort of penis enhancement, unless we felt it absolutely necessary for his mental well being. This is because the track record of these procedures is appalling. The key to making a good decision with these types of procedures is not to allow yourself to think in an illogical way on order to come the conclusion that the decision you want to make is the right one. We are nearly all guilty of doing this and I have done so myself, much to my regret. Hence I understand why you'd say to yourself lack of FDA approval is the reason so few do these procedures, but really if you think about it, is that in line with your perception of how the cosmetic surgery industry works? The reason so few Dr's don't do it has nothing to do with FDA approval. You don't need FDA approval, as thousands of FDA approved products are used in off label procedures. I always find it odd when people genuinely believe that Dr's in the US don't do PMMA as it isn't FDA approved. See how many change their minds the moment the Artefil patent runs out! Btw don't get PMMA either.

The reason he does not publish is because long term results are very bad.'' As Hoddle mentioned FDA approval is a non factor.'' PMMA is NOT safer.' The company that developed artefil went bankrupt ! Many doctors outside the US/Europe get the filler from low cost suppliers in mainland China.' Read the reviews where people where injected more than 3 years ago in the butt and you will witness many horror stories about pain and granulomas.'' ditto for guys injected in the penis in Brazil. Do not be foolish and compare Belladerm with breast enhancement.'' One has and excellent safety record while the other is terrible.'' I know guys who developed ED, peyronies, and others who have to urinate with a Catheter because they made the mistake of convincing themselves they needed to have Girth enhancement. It is human nature to focus on the upside but turn a blind eye to the possible disastrous results of a botched surgery.

Most of the people that speak against Belladerm do not really understand why it replaced Alloderm. Also most of not all of these people have never met with Dr and learned what and why his industry as changed from early fat injections...You have to filer out people that have THEIR own ideas what is right and wrong and have not done anything but read articles that are PRO their favorite method...

I fully agree with the comments that PE surgery carries significant risk and there have been many reports of serious problems (especially FFT and Ellist implant). On the other hand, I've heard of more positive than negative reports (albeit few overall) on Rosenthal and Belladerm. What if he doesn't publish his results simply because he doesn't need to? If he averages 6 surgeries per week at $10K, why advertise? In fact, publication of successful results may encourage other docs to jump on the bandwagon. The default answer seems to be that docs don't publish PE surgery outcomes because of the negative aspects, however I wonder if it's reasonable think about it from the opposite perspective. Not suggesting this is what I believe, just curious about what others think of the idea.

Max My Question: Does the belloderm absorb/dissolve/decrease significantly over time, resulting in the need for another procedure? 'If so, how long does it last? Response: I have been using Belladerm for about 3 years and longterm appears to have very little shrinkage compared to Alloderm. The amount of shrinkage is variable and seems to be most in smokers.

It is like telling your wife she is fat...she will never forget nor forgive you. If you were asked by your wife/GF if you had a tighter pussy in your previous relationships, what would your answer be? I hate lying, but there are very few instances where lying is preferred to save your partner's feelings....For some reason, some women decide to be honest at the wrong time. Women who had vaginal births are at a lot lower risk with vaginal tightening surgery than men with surgical PE such as implant, Alloderm or Belladerm, and the cost is almost the same if not cheaper.

I agree with some of what you say Richard, but the fact of the matter is your successful case is an exception rather than the norm. PE is still at its pioneering stages and when we research, we are left with the option of taking what the doctor says at face value or message boards such as this to get first hand experience reports. Finding an unbiased, 3rd party report on the outcome of a statistically significant amount of PE surgeries (for any doctor) is basically impossible because most of the doctors don't want the world to know the failure rate. Could you imagine if a prospective patient of the implant doctor (Dr. Elist) only relied on the literature on the Internet about the implant (written by Dr. Elist himself) or his face-to-face hard sell consultation with the good doctor to make his decision, without paying attention to the countless horror stories that have come out on this board and others? Would you consider that an informed decision?

Richard, you'll need to settle down friend. Hoddle clearly quoted Maximus and was clearly responding to Maximus. He didn't once cite you by name or your specific situation. I understand these procedures can be sensitive topics, but we mustn't get carried away. And a lot of what he said was valid, but I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.

Good point about few PE surgeons but my sense is that this is at least in part due to the lack of FDA approval. Still a great point to consider nonetheless. By the way, if Rosenthal performs 6 surgeries per week (as stated on the Dr Drew show, and consistent with him telling me that he has done >5000 allo/Bella surgeries over 20 yrs), why doesn't he publish the comprehensive results in a medical journal? Is it likely that the number of procedures is significantly exaggerated? Hoddle, I have discussed this extensively with my wife and while she's not in favor of the idea, she is supportive. Perhaps because she is having breast enlargement at the end of the year Max Please [Log in](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/login.html?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuajQucGhhbGxvYm9hcmRzLmluZm8vZm9ydW0vZ2VuZXJhbC1waGFsbG9wbGFzdHktZGlzY3Vzc2lvbi1hcmNoaXZlLzU5MDA4ODgtY29uc2lkZXJpbmctYmVsbGFkZXJtLXBsZWFzZS1hZHZpc2UuaHRtbD9tYXJrZG93bj0xJnN0YXJ0PTE1) or [Create an account](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/register.html) to join the conversation. ## Re: Considering Belladerm--please advise 14 years 1 month ago [\#1274044915](#1274044915) - **[richard](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/forum/user/1774578-richard.html "View richard's Profile")** - [![richard's Avatar](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/forum/user/1774578-richard.html "View richard's Profile") - [ Offline](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/forum/user/1774578-richard.html) - General - ![General](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/media/kunena/ranks/rank1.gif) - Posts: 77 - Thanks: 0 - [ ](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/pms.html?task=new&recip=1774578) Mm Your last post is very correct.. With the number of people I have met either in Dr Rosenthal's office and on the Internet they are very happy with their results..I investigated the different methods and read most if not all posts.. Any surgery, and injections of PMMA may cause long term problems...I have posted the positive results that I have here.But the majority of this site are PMMA people which if fine with me and I would never speak against it.. It just did not meet my criteria. thanks Please [Log in](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/login.html?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuajQucGhhbGxvYm9hcmRzLmluZm8vZm9ydW0vZ2VuZXJhbC1waGFsbG9wbGFzdHktZGlzY3Vzc2lvbi1hcmNoaXZlLzU5MDA4ODgtY29uc2lkZXJpbmctYmVsbGFkZXJtLXBsZWFzZS1hZHZpc2UuaHRtbD9tYXJrZG93bj0xJnN0YXJ0PTE1) or [Create an account](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/register.html) to join the conversation.
