Pumping before implant

So before I get my second implant, I'm wondering is I should start a pumping routine or a stretching or both? I hate 5" and I'm hoping I can do something to get it bigger before the second surgery. Thoughts anyone? My doctor used the AMS 700

I have become an advocate of pre-implant vacuum preparation. Sellers, Dineen et al wrote a very convincing paper (among others) that convinced me to try it. However, they focused on men who had long-term ED and likely had contracture (shrinkage of tissues) as a result. The object was to restore length and elasticity, not to increase over what nature had given. Their paper recommended at least 60 days preparation. I have been vacuum-punping my penis for 6 months and only saw significant recovery of length in the last two months. (I have been trying to get the V.A. to allow me to travel to Baltimore rather than have a local surgeon with less experience perform my surgery,)

You are in a bit of a different situation, though. If you have an implant now, applying vacuum may result in unintended consequences. Tissue tearing away from adhesions to the current implant is one I can imagine might have dire consequences.

Vacuum pumping on an implanted penis is HIGHLY controversial and not well studied (that I can determine).

Good luck

I have been pumping for seven years to gain size. Though I have increased girth by over one inch, I don't believe it has contributed to increasing length.

Sorry, I did not remember. In your case, I would go for the potential benefit of vacuum therapy.
