 It's been a little over 8 weeks since my FFT/stem cell procedure from Dr Maercks . Each week things got better, but was anxious about curvature/shortened Erect penis (which was slowly getting better). Had visit several days ago and had Restylane injections to help with curvature. What a difference! Curvature /Erect length issue seems to be resolved. Extremely happy with results. Was told to be patient and it might take 2 to 3 months ,,,,but got very anxious ..,,Very glad I chose Dr a Maercks and highly recommend him. He listens, is caring , and regularly follows up to see how you are doing. I would definitely use him again. Now I'm debating whether to do ligament cut,since I'm only 5 inches Erect.

 Wouldn't it have been better to do the lig cut before getting FFT? I guess you could always get a "touch up" at the base if you need it. Glad to hear things are going well!

 See Dr Maercks in 3 weeks. Had made appt with Capriotti about a month ago for Nov 9th. since I'm in Houston for a few days .. to check on ligament cut. Didn't realize Dr Maercks will do it. but usually doesn't with his Girth procedure. Will probably have Dr Maercks do Restylane or juvederm into glans to make more proportional

 If had to do over...would still do FFT..but maybe lengthening at same time. Would not do PMMA, alloderm etc...Read where someone on board said PMMA was safer than FFT..Common sense. would seem to indicate otherwise. Last thing I would do is put foreign substance in my penis or cutting . Taking my chances using my own fat cells ..100 percent glad I did that. I can deal with minor touchup

 From a bodily reaction standpoint, you are absolutely correct. FFT is safer. The body won't reject itself.
