Title: Surgery in 4 months yay!! Advice please to prepare!! :) + hair removal question!
Post by: eggy_nog on July 20, 2015, 02:34:32 PM
Hi all!!

The day has come! I have a date for my surgery in just over 4 months time ^^

Just wondering if there were any tips or pieces of advice you can give me to properly prepare :)

Also a question on hair removal. I'm getting it done in the UK so it's the rules that apply there. Also, am getting the inversion technique done.

I have a tiiiny bit of hair at the middle shaft of the penis and below to the base. But none towards the end. Is that going to be an issue? Should I get it electrolysed? If it stays there will it cause big issues for me down the line? I had my surgical outpatient's appointment, and the surgeon seemed to think it was fine, and didn't say anything about needing any hair removal...

Thanks everyoneeeee :))

Eggy,

Do whatever your surgeon recommends. It all depends on how thick and dark your hair is.

Mine is very thick and almost black. My surgeon recommends electrolysis and I have had 3 hours so far and I am almost clear. It is not fun, but not unbearable.

Best wishes.
