 A little about me:

Have always had a keen interest in PE
-Tried manual exercises with little to no lasting gains and at times overdid it which led to injuries
-Been a lurker here for several years

My starting stats
FL: 3.5"
FG: 3.5"
NBPEL: 6"
BPEL" 6.25"
EG: 4.6"
I'm basically the epitome of average - but who wants to be average? ?

My main concern with any type of surgical procedure was safety/long term complications as this is still a very new space.
I prioritize my health and overall sexual function/performance far more than size.
Came to the conclusion that HA was the only way to go - since it is easily reversible.
Fortunately for me I am a Korean American with a solid grasp of the culture and language.
Did some research and I finally found myself in Seoul the mecca of all things plastic/cosmetic surgery related!
I chose to go with JJ Urology - you can find them easily on google.
I went for a consultation and the doctor addressed all of my concerns.
I was most concerned about lumps/unevenness.
The doc told me this isnt a huge issue for them - however they recommend patients stay bandaged for 2 weeks until the product fully settles. And of course refrain from drinking/sex/masturbation during that period as well.
Also any imperfections can be touched up after about a week.
As for the price they had a special October 'event' where 10 ml of their HA (which they claim is a 3rd generation formula that lasts up to 3 years) would cost 999,999 won which is about $900.
They recommended that I go with 20 ml for my first procedure and then go from there. They said theres no limit as to how much size we could add - as some patients request up to 60 ml over multiple procedures.
The price for 20 ml was 1,900,000 won which is about $1700 - a significant discount from other reports I've seen.

So today was d-day and I was super nervous.
The staff however is very friendly and took good care of me.
Got a few shots of local anesthetic which pinched a bit but not too bad.
And the doc went to work and after about 15 min it was all over.
Felt a little pain at the injection sites when he started to bandage me up but not a big deal. They told me to come back in 2 days to see how its shaping up.
They also prescribed me some painkillers and antibiotics which I will need to take 3x/day for about a week.
Now Im back at my hotel and just chilling.
At the moment its all bandaged up so I can't see what it looks like.
Will update on Friday.

 Good luck! Let us know how it goes. I have exactly the same Erect stats and have a modest goal of a 0.75" increase in EG... you should hopefully get about that from 20 ml ... I'd be curious how the Erect firmness is with that.

 I would be thrilled with 0.75" as well
So far the Flaccid feels quite heavy and is Hanging significantly lower
Also I asked the doc about Erect firmness and he was quick to reassure me that its not a common complaint - its much firmer than say a fat transfer which feels squishy at best

> Hi there, how is it going with your HA in Kor?

 Id stay away from Dr Kim even for HA, he injects you with 4 times more than what you actually need just to get more money out of you. The last person who went to him for HA had it dissolved.
