Yesterday I saw the very first patient I did with HA 4 years ago. It was the cheapest HA I could get as I was doing it all for free. He still feels he is bigger than before the injection. I had a guy come in a few months ago claiming it was all gone - he measured the same as in his post measurement 2 weeks after treatment (he then asked to have even more). We have had a couple of rapid volume loss - 1 in a professional athlete the other got very sick with pneumonia (not sure if it was being sick/fever/antibiotics but the HA disappeared. But loss of product has not been a problem over 2+ yrs Please [Log in](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/login.html?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuajQucGhhbGxvYm9hcmRzLmluZm8vZ2VuZXJhbC1mb3J1bS9nZW5lcmFsLXBoYWxsb3BsYXN0eS1kaXNjdXNzaW9uLWFyY2hpdmUvOTQ2OTg3OS1oYS1sb25nLXRlcm0tb3V0Y29tZXMuaHRtbD9tYXJrZG93bj0xJnN0YXJ0PTA=) or [Create an account](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/register.html) to join the conversation. ## Re: HA Long Term Outcomes 8 years 9 months ago [\#1301794851](#1301794851) - **[randomword1234](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/general-forum/user/5739881-randomword1234.html "View randomword1234's Profile")** - [![randomword1234's Avatar](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/general-forum/user/5739881-randomword1234.html "View randomword1234's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/general-forum/user/5739881-randomword1234.html) - General - ![General](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/media/kunena/ranks/rank1.gif) - Posts: 137 - Thanks: 0 - [ ](https://www.j4.phalloboards.info/pms.html?task=new&recip=5739881) I am also curious as to how the new HA in Korea pans out in terms of how long it lasts and costs, I trust Dr. Oates will keep the forum updated on that front. I do have some questions for Dr. Oates. In the event things do go wrong with Voluma or Ellanse, what are our options? Dr. Oates, how would you handle treating the following if it arises in one of your patients 1. Granuloma from HA? 2. Granuloma from Ellanse? 3. Nodule from Ellanse? 4. Infection following injection with Ellanse? 5. Infection following injection with HA? 6.

He states he does use Juvederm, will open the box in front of you, and provide the product control label. Though he stated his experience with Juvederm (which I assume is Juvederm Voluma): "Hyaluronic Acid is quite unpredictable both for the penis and the face. The manufacturer information is typically too optimistic; mine goes towards the other extreme.I haven't seen results that last more than one year, best case scenario." According to North Valley Plastic Surgery's website (Clinic been doing HA in penis for 3 years): How long will it last?The makers of Juv'derm ' claim that it can last up to a year. In many patients it can last a year but others it lasts several months less. VOLUMA is said to last at least two years. Everyone's body degrades Dermal Filler differently and we all have different skin, muscle, and tissues thickness. Androfill's website: "' how long the filler will last: depending on the filler used, usually between 12 months and up to 18 months." Dr. Oates has stated in this thread that absorption can be variable in some odd cases, but in general lasts years. I emailed Dr. C to clarify if by Juvederm he is referring to Voluma, if so, it looks like half of these injectors HA are finding results lasting less than a year in most of their patients, whereas other injectors are claiming much longer results in their patients. Very disappointing news if Voluma lasting less than a year. I'm curious as to the large discrepancy in product duration claimed between injectors. We need more long term HA patient reports to confirm experiences.

How would the patient and you be able to tell the difference between granuloma, delayed hypersensitivity reaction, and infectious process following an injection? You don't really need to wait. I would email Dr. Kim and ask him. He uses Ultimate Volume Butyris HA by get this "Dong ST" not making it up! Anyways it's listed as a direct replacement and Superior product to Voluma and it supposedly lasts the same 18 months. Best of all it's cheap, you can get 40mls for $4500 US!! Travel cost and length of stay is obviously a concern. BTW Dr. Kim has probably been doing penis HA the longest.

In fact Androfills website gives you an idea of retention for Voluma, "Calculation example : Girth maintenance after 18 months : 6 syringes of filler needed to maintain penis Girth = ( '265 x 6 ) = '1,590." This would obviously vary from person to person but essentially at 12-18 mos 6ml for maintenance. Still expensive but safe and reversible. Dr. Oats does this calculation sound realistic?

This weekend we are presenting the results of our first followup on 25 guys (that is all we could get to respond to our survey) but it was all on psychological measures.

Currently using Ultimate from Teosyal - seems just as good maybe fewer issues.

In many patients it can last a year but others it lasts several months less. VOLUMA is said to last at least two years.

Very disappointing news if Voluma lasting less than a year. I'm curious as to the large discrepancy in product duration claimed between injectors. We need more long term HA patient reports to confirm experiences.

In your patient who returned to your office yesterday, whom you injected 4 years ago, how many top ups did he have between the initial injection and your visit with him yesterday? 2. Were you able to quantify how much Girth that patient lost across that 4 year time period? 3. Regarding the professional athlete and the pneumonia patient, how long did it take for them to lose the HA? How much did they lose (all of it)? Did you reinject them? 4. What is your follow-up protocol for Girth enhancement patients to know if they have lost or retained Girth over time (do you call them, do you schedule follow-up appointment, or do you let them return on their own for top-ups and listen to their feedback)? 5. How many patients have you injected in total for Girth enhancement? How many of these patients were injected with Voluma?
