TOPIC: Lumps from Fat Injection

I too have had the FFT. Am at 1.75 years post op. My retention was about .25 as well. Man the swelling really gets you optimistic, doesn\'t it ? I am in the process of documenting my FFT journey. I actually had it half done and this POS laptop went wacko and deleted the entire 30 minutes of what I had typed so I slammed it shut and will start over when I get home from vacation. I too am looking closer and closer at the PMMA path. It seems these gains are more for your money. I had the MISL and FFT at same time and am about $6500 into FFT procedure. If I woulda come across PMMA, I may have went that route but I don\'t remember seeing it when I researched everything. Live and learn boys. Look fofr a new post by me in the near future in FFT progress report.

ZXCDSA....thank you for sharing your experience !!

FYI, I also ended up with a couple/few small hard lumps after the FFT. Took about six months but they did appear. One is near my glans and nfot noticeable except to me and the other nodules are at the base of my penis and are really not noticeable either. Either way, they are not going to go away unless removed by your surgeon. Based on the little FFT that I retained, I don\'t feel it is worth the cost. PMMA seems to be a better \"bang for the buck\". I have a $1K second stage fill available but think it may not be worth the investment if I were only to retain another .25\". I also am not a \"fat retainer\" which I think plays a large role in how well/much FFT is retained. As mentioned, when I get home from vacation, I will document my FFT journey.

Can you both guys please give an longtime update? How much did last and is the feeling still the same?

I had lumps as well but it did smooth out after about a month. It really wasn\'t to bad.
I went back to add HA though and it was much worse even than the fat.

I\'m going to give CaHA Calcium (Radiesse) with Dr. C a shot next month as my last attempt.
