TOPIC: Stretching after the first week of filler

Just curious what the consensus is on using an ADS after filler (Ellanse) has settled. Is it beneficial as the collagen is forming or does it matter?

Once it's "settled" -- it's usually okay to use -- however that's assuming it's not overused: Frequent use (excess in sessions per day/week, and duration of time per session), high intensity (these aren't muscles and are susceptible to injury), and improper technique (this is exercise-dependent, but worth noting nonetheless) can not only lead to setbacks, but potentially cause irreparable issues down the road.

Given that Ellanse's collagen behaves much like PMMA's, it tracks that these devices can be used like they were before your procedure, but admittedly, long-term implications are not well understood.

Sorry i wasn’t clear it’s the opposite. I had been gently stretching with a phallosan plus under zero tension for the first week to heal in an extended state and I was trying to decide whether to keep going or stop. I elected to stop since my glans was getting a little irritated and wearing it all day and night was kind of a pain. But wearing it the first week made all the difference for me and the outcome was far superior to just using the weight which is what I did for the first round. I might try some light pumping in another couple of months to maximize the collagen but for now I’m just leaving it alone focusing on clean living, laying off the alcohol and cigars, taking supplements, etc.

That's what I do. I've always immediately put on my ADS knee strap right after the procedure, while I'm still at the clinic. I wear it 12-14hrs a day, not when sleeping. I do that for about the first two weeks. It was a total game changer. My Flaccid hang is practically 6" and I have very minimal retraction
