This man didn't read the forum "a lot" as he claims. When I just joined this foru I was not "condoned" so much as the current new guys. Another thread to add to the junk one has to go through when doing serious research ...

I'm on the cusp of opting for a widening procedure and I'm at a crossroads between PMMA and getting a Belladerm graft done. When I first started reading on this site months ago, it seemed as though everyone on here was all about PMMA and that Belladerm was a terrible idea. However, it seems like the more I read in this forum, the more I see complications with PMMA. I also haven't found very much about the complications involved with Belladerm other than it can be reabsorbed. Other than reabsorbtion, what are the other complications with Belladerm that would cause someone to opt for PMMA instead? How common is outright rejection? It seems pretty rare. And if it does happen, what does that process entail? I imagine that it wouldn't be any worse than having nodules removed. Also, please don't say "read the forum." I've read the forum. A lot.

The issue's you'll see and read about in this thread are worse that what we've seen from PMMA. I don't know of guys with PMMA who have lost sensation, had their penis contract and bend to the point they can't have sex or ended up with big permanent holes in their shaft skin. PMMA is certainly not without it's risks, but I'd personally take the worse PMMA issuse we've seen (ie Restoration or Darkstaff) over any of the Belladerm/Alloderm issues.
