I am now 4 months post op and my surgeon wants me to change and use soft dilator moving forward. I have been using #3 and #4 of soulsource dilators since after my surgery. Do we really have to change from hard dilators to soft dilators eventually? I just thought using hard once is better to use for lifetime.
Always follow your surgeon's advice. :)
But yes, I've ever heard (until now) of using hard dilators, and Brassard is clear that a soft dilator will NOT work - it's fine eventually to use in addition to the regular set, but not instead of. It sounds like your surgeon has a different technique and therefore different regimen.

No, my doctor's technique is similar to what Sanguan Kunaporn is doing in Thailand. Its peno-scrotal SRS method wherein they used most of its skin to create a flap with skin grafting. My doctor is a bit noob for post operative care like I bought soulsource dilators instead of using the one he is providing due to its only one and size is like #4 of soulsource (yikes).
Im concern that if he lets me switch to soft dilators I might lose depth and width.
well, follow the dr's advise. i never heard of the soft kind. they seem more like sex toys, battery operated boy friends. at some point, if you are sexualy active, most retire the damn dialiator things. a few years in, with regular sexual activity, they are typicaly not needed anymore. discuss that with your dr, as dr. always knows best.
