    Here are some frequently asked questions about recovery from penis filler:

    How Long Does Recovery Typically Take?

    The recovery period from penis filler typically varies, but most individuals can expect to resume normal activities within a few days to a week. The recovery timeline from penis filler typically involves initial swelling and bruising in the first few days, followed by gradual improvement in the following weeks.

    Factors such as individual healing processes, the amount of filler injected, and overall health can influence the recovery timeline. Supportive underwear can be helpful in post-treatment to minimize swelling and enhance results.

    Applying ice packs to the area can help reduce any discomfort or swelling. Hydration is also crucial during this period as it aids in flushing out toxins and promoting overall healing.

    What is the Recovery Timeline?

    Week 1-2: As the swelling subsides, which can take 1-2 weeks, you may start noticing enhanced results.

    Week 3: Most of the swelling should diminish, and the area will begin to feel more normal. It’s important to follow post-procedure care instructions given by Dr. Glenn to ensure a smooth recovery process.

    Some may experience mild discomfort, but this can often be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers and cold compresses. Monitoring progress, maintaining good hygiene, and staying in touch with the medical team for any concerns are essential parts of the recovery journey.

    Are Hydration and Nutrition Important?

    Recovery updates are crucial after any procedure, and what you eat and drink can significantly impact how your body heals. To promote optimal recovery, focus on consuming foods rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Hydration levels are equally important; aim to drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your body hydrated and aid in the elimination of toxins. Setting realistic recovery goals and considering these dietary and hydration factors can help ensure a smoother and more successful healing process.

    What Should You Do If You Experience Complications During Recovery?

    In case of experiencing complications during the recovery phase from penis filler, it is crucial to contact Dr. Glenn immediately for guidance and appropriate management.

    Promptly seeking medical advice in situations where unexpected issues arise post-penis filler treatment is essential for ensuring a safe and effective recovery process. Dr. Glenn can offer valuable insights and recommend specific techniques to address any complications that may occur.

    How Long Do the Results of Penis Filler Last?

    Factors that influence how long the results last include the type of filler used, individual metabolism, and the level of physical activity. Optimal results can be extended by following proper post-procedure guidelines, such as avoiding strenuous activities for a recommended recovery duration and refraining from sexual activity for a certain period. Managing discomfort after the procedure can be achieved through the use of prescribed medications, ice packs, and proper rest. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet, can help prolong the effects of the filler.

  • Penis enlargement procedure – method, costs, and risks

    Penis enlargement procedure – method, costs, and risks

    If you’re considering a penis enlargement procedure with Thunderbird Men’s Health, there are a few things you should know before your first appointment.

    Thunderbird Men’s Health uses a procedure that injects a realistic-feeling substance into the shaft of your penis, eliminating the need for surgery — no cutting, and no stitches. And the entire process takes about 15 minutes.

    How does it work?

    You’re brought into the examination room where you lie face-up on the examination table with your groin area undressed. You leave the rest of your clothes on.

    After the area is prepped with an antiseptic solution, Dr. Glenn uses a needle to inject a local anesthetic on either side of the penis, just behind the head. See below.

    penis filler injection sites

    Shortly after the penis is numb, using an aesthetic micro-cannula (a short, blunt, flexible tube thinner than a syringe) Dr. Glenn uses the syringe holes and strategically injects filler along the right side and left side of the shaft of the penis. While this is happening, Dr. Glenn describes what he’s doing and shows you the results.

    penis filler injection areas

    Dr. Glenn then shapes the filler under your skin extending from the base of the penis to the injection site. Once that step is complete, he wraps your penis with a bandage.

    The final results are up to you…but luckily, this part is easy. At home, you’ll need to gently mold the filler into place so that it evenly covers the shaft of the penis.

    What is the filler made of?

    We offer two types of high-quality filler: Original and Advanced. Original is a hyaluronic acid filler, and Advanced is a combination of hyaluronic acid filler and calcium hydroxy apatite. The latter combination ensures longer-lasting results.

    Both types of filler are commonly used in aesthetic medical treatments across the country.

    How much does it cost?

    The cost of the procedure depends on your goal size and desired duration of results. Prices generally range from $4,200 for 6 ml of filler all the way up to $16,990 for 30 ml of filler.

    Along with filler injections, we also offer some effective lengthening treatments. Those range in price from $550 to $3,790.

    Our Services page has a full range of treatments and packages.

    We strive for 100% patient satisfaction. Our patients are overall happy with the results and are encouraged to ask questions at any point before, during, and after the procedure.

    Are there any risks?

    As with any injection, there is a risk for infection at the injection site. Keeping these areas clean is the best way to prevent infection. The filler is mostly dissolvable, reversing the procedure, if necessary.

    Things to consider

    • The procedure generally takes around 15 minutes to complete.
    • Dr. Glenn will use local anesthesia during the procedure.
    • You’ll return for a follow-up visit about a week later.
    • Your penis may have additional swelling after the procedure. This is normal.
    • You’ll need to abstain from masturbation and sexual activity for about a week.
    • If you aren’t circumcised, it’s not a problem.
    • You can return to normal activities, including things like cycling and motorcycle riding, immediately after the procedure.

    Getting a bigger penis: How to separate fact from fiction

    Steps to make informed decisions about penis enlargement

    1. Research the source: Start by examining the credibility of the source providing information about penis enlargement methods. Read articles that have been reviewed by doctors or other qualified health professionals. These are commonly found on reputable medical websites and in peer-reviewed journals, and trusted healthcare professionals who offer evidence-based insights are also good sources.
    2. Beware of outlandish claims: Some products, like *Upsize™, work really well, really fast. You can see before and after medical photos for yourself, here. Be cautious of other companies’ or individuals’ exaggerated claims. Some penis-enlargement methods require time, dedication, and consistency to achieve meaningful outcomes. Avoid products or services that guarantee unrealistic gains with minimal effort or cost.
    3. Evaluate scientific evidence: Seek out hard facts, including scientific studies and clinical trials supporting the effectiveness of various penis-enlargement methods. Products and procedures with real results are supported with sound evidence and undergo rigorous testing to validate their claims.
    4. Check for FDA Approval: Verify whether the product or procedure has received approval from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or other regulatory authorities. FDA-approved devices and treatments have undergone thorough evaluation for safety and efficacy. Hyaluronic acid dermal fillers, which are used in Upsize™ treatments, have an extensive history of use and an impeccable safety record. Topical creams and oral supplements, often containing vitamins, minerals, herbs, or hormones, are advertised with claims of enlarging the penis. Yet, none have been proven effective through scientific research, and certain ones may pose health risks.
    5. Consult Healthcare Professionals: Seek guidance from qualified healthcare providers, such as urologists or sexual health specialists, who can offer personalized advice and recommendations based on your individual needs and medical history. At Thunderbird Men’s Health, procedures are done solely by Dr. Jordan Glenn, using Upsize’s proprietary cannula technique to ensure safety and efficacy. The procedure has a high safety profile and is reversible. Reach out today with your questions or to set up a consult with Dr. Glenn.
    6. Read Reviews and Testimonials: Take the time to read reviews and testimonials from individuals who have tried the product or undergone the procedure. Also consider both positive and negative experiences to gain a comprehensive understanding of potential risks and benefits.
    7. Trust Your Instincts: Listen to your instincts and use caution if something seems too good to be true. Trustworthy providers prioritize transparency, honesty, and patient safety, whereas scams often rely on deception and manipulation to lure unsuspecting consumers.

    Use caution when considering penis-enlargement treatments

    Following the guidelines above, you can distinguish between legitimate information and scams in the penis-enlargement industry. These steps ultimately help you make informed choices that prioritize health and well-being. Prioritize safety, efficacy, and credibility when exploring penis enlargement options.

    *Upsize™ is a medical procedure done in the office by a medical professional. The procedure takes about 30 minutes and is done using local anesthesia, requiring no cutting or stitches. The results are immediate and you can return to regular activities immediately.
