Revision

[WhiteCane]

That’s exactly what does it! I hope I get as lucky as you did with cycling… paranoid that the next surgeon will not do a stretch test before they implant the new device… I know that 5.25 is completely normal but, when you are used to 6.75, it just doesn’t feel that way, I guess

Hey I sent you a DM. Please check.

I had my revision at almost 1 year from my initial implant. Titan was replaced with the lgx. No issues at all with recovery. Went from19 cm total length to 20 cm total length.

I have a good solid 6.75 pumped up erection with the 20 cm cylinders. I have had great success with both models. Both tips sat well in the glans and cylinders pump up straight and hard.

Good luck on your revision when it comes.

OK, I found a video that is exactly what Dr. Kramer said is going on with my implant… check YouTube for “revision corporal proximal cylinder replacement“ if you’d like to see what it is… anyway, in the video he mentions that it’s better to get it done sooner than later… last week, I had a surgery completely unrelated to my penis and will be recovering for the next two months basically… this race is the question… If I’m waiting another two months, how much scarring do you think there will be? Do you guys think I should consider the Titan or the CX to maybe try breaking away at the scar tissue right off the bat instead of being disappointed about size furthermore? i’m already a little freaked out that I’m shorter by close to 2 inches… I’ve been dismissing that as this malfunction but, I don’t know how confident I am yet… my LG ex is a quarter inch longer deflated then inflated which worries me but kind of keeps me confident at the same time that this is exactly what is going on… anyway, I’m getting in touch with the new urologist to set things up so I’m good for surgery the second I’m cleared from this one… unfortunately, I can’t afford the $3000 out of pocket again… I hope everyone is doing well! all feedback is appreciated…

Can you give us more details on your situation? What do you have now? and why it failed, etc.
The first advice I can tell you, if you are concerned about size, is to get to one of the top 5 surgeons (Kramer, Christine, Eid, Kapman or Perito) rather than a low volume. I know Karpman and Christine for sure work with Insurance. Not sure about the rest.

You missed Gerry Brock from London Ontario. He is the past president of the Canadian Urological Society, has won more than 25 awards, has been published over 200 times and is a very high volume implant surgeon and also does all other urology surgery... This doctor is amazing.

Absolutely, I have an 18 cm LGX with 2 cm rear tips… my stretch test put me at 6.751 done by the doctor, myself, and my significant other… basically, everything inflates fine mechanically but, the proximal stitches on the left side apparently the attached. When I inflate, there is about a 2 inch bulge in my scrotum that’s basically just inflated cylinder taking up its space as it gets filled… Another major issue is girth… I’ve never been extremely wide but, I’ve never necessitated a snugger fit condom either… The last time I tried to use a condom was for figuring out what my girth was relatively… It did not fit like a garbage bag LOL… that was even an erection with very little success from Viagra… so, I’m getting it replaced because I’m not confident I was Sized correctly and it definitely is not right that everything is bulging up like that…

Who is doing the revision and what brand and model are you getting??

Seems you had an inexperienced surgeon to start with.
I understand the financial burden, but please get a good experienced surgeon this time. I found that the pricing is about the same for all surgeons as most the cost is for the implant and the hospital.
In general: inexperienced surgeons charge about $1,000 for the surgery, while the top guys charge around $2,000 and trust me that is a very well-spent.
The rest of the cost is for the implant: $9 to 10k, hospital $9,000 to 12k, and anesthesia approximately $1,000.
Also, check with AMS to see if they can cover the implant under warranty.

Hahaha... not only is Dr. Kramer experienced, he is one of the best implant surgeons in the world.

[Charlie2019]

The unfortunate part is that I did go to one of the best in the country… It just didn’t work out for me despite his amazing reviews and success stories… my insurance picked up all but about 3000 of it… So, I speak English into the phone and sometimes it picks up words that I didn’t say because as I’m speaking them, they don’t sound like the wheel English words… for instance if I say “butter“ in English it might pick it up as “but or“ with the dialect… I have to use this website through a browser so, it makes editing things a little bit harder than if it were in an app like Facebook which is a little bit easier to navigate…

You should let Dr. Kramer re-do it. He is a great surgeon but remember, everybody has a bad day once in a while... Dr Kramer has few bad days. Maybe there was a defect in the implant... Was your implant video taped? If yes, can you provide a link?

[Charlie2019]

Do people lose length so rapidly?
Try using a VED to maintain length, maybe it will give you mental peace.

If it is implanted correctly, there should be NO LOST LENGTH

Dr. Kramer may not have done the stretch test BUT, that is NOT the proper way to measure anyway. When you are on the table and opened, he will jam a special measuring rod in. I have watched every Kramer video and he uses the rod. Trust him, it is my opinion (and MANY would agree with me) he is one of the best in the world. Let him do the revision, you won't be sorry. You should know I am Canadian and Dr. Brock did mine... other than stating the truth, I have no reason to suggest what I have to you. I am NOT on Dr. Kramer's payroll.

I couldn’t get my phone to read me who typed the part about the 6.75 inches be impossible but, thank you… I really hope you are right on this one! I’ve read one other statement saying someone had the exact same length and the exact same size and type of implant so, I am confident about that but, 20 cm doesn’t really leave a lot to play with on a penis that size… Just a little ripped off feeling for lack of a better way of putting it LOL I’m missing a lot of that and I hope things are broken beyond repair…
