Hey There every1..I have heard about this CO2 laser treatment all across the internet...Lets face it, Why Live with it, when you have the choice and opportunity to do something about it...
Just wondering how much $$$ it would cost??? if someone knows please share....thanx
I have just been to see a cosmetic surgeon today to discuss having my papules removed by CO2 laser. I am in the UK. The figure I was quoted was just over £1000 which is a lot! More than half of that is for hospital fees and for use of the laser equipment. It is not exactly the kind of tool a doctor can carry in his black bag! I could have had the procedure done tomorrow but I decided to think it over a bit more as this is a lot of cash to fork out.
This doctor totally understood why I wanted to have this done. He has only ever treated one other man with this problem and that was 3 months ago. I'm pretty certain I will go ahead with it - it's just sorting out a date and a convenient venue. I will keep this forum posted.

Hey Plato986,
Good to hear from someone at last! I've been on a short holiday and did not have good Internet access so I haven't looked in on this forum till today.
Glad to hear you're getting treated. Tomorrow will be three weeks since I had mine done. I would say mine is all healed now.
The first thing I found is that the corona became very sensitive once the anaesthetic wore off. I had an injected penile block as well as some topical gel on the glans. That extreme sensitivity remained with me for about two days and, as I am circumcised, I had to wrap the glans in bandages in order to go to work. o.O I couldn't risk getting the little fella knocked by accident. On the second day (Saturday, so no work) I was able to leave it open to the air to dry out and I would say that made a big difference. Naturally, the corona was a bit red then pink during this sensitive period. I never had any swelling but I think some guys do get that.
In the evening of the day I had the treatment, I had some bleeding (nothing to get worried about) and by day two that mostly stopped. I think that not having a foreskin helped to speed up the formation of scabs so it was an advantage in a way. A foreskin will keep the area damp and slow things down. If you are uncut, you might consider retracting (if that is possible for you) and letting it dry out. By day three all bleeding had stopped and the wound was nice and dry.
With each passing day the sensitivity and redness decreased, returning to "normal" around day 10 or 11. The scabs started dropping off around day 5 - from rubbing against my underwear so I wasn't even aware of it happening. The last tiny one disappeared today. :-D
The papules have disappeared, but there is what I could describe as a "shadow" left where some of them were. Because I know where they were, I can see tiny marks when I am flaccid. When I am erect, these marks more or less completely disappear and the corona feels nice and smooth. I don't know at this stage whether this will improve with time - I haven't seen the doctor for my follow up as yet. I am very glad I have had this done. I hope you will continue to update me with your results

how much did it cost you and can u say the figure in American money
Hi Cuckoohead,
It cost £1100 which at the current exchange rate is roughly $2200 but the cost in the UK is not necessarily relevant to costs in the US.
Have you found a doctor who is willing to do it for you?

not yet I told my mom and she said that we are going to the doctor next month to check it out cause she had scheduled an apointment,I'm only 15 though
Micolex 7 works I know cuz I tried it. It's made for a girl but it works for men
determined can you tell me which doctor you used as im also in te uk..
His name is Mr David Gault and he is based in London.
Well first of all, PPP is common. 1 in 3 men reportetly have it. So you should just learn to live with it, and if you take on a new or any sex partner, just flat out tell them. Show them the information on the internet. If you cant live with them, theres two ways that will work, and two ways that wont. Toothpaste and vapor rub wont work. Its a mean joke to get you guys to put that stuff on your penis so it will burn like hell. haha. Co2 laser surgery will work but its not cheap, and I personally dont want any lasers aimed at my ol boy. The other way doesnt make them go completely away, but there will be a deff noticeable difference. Just keep it very clean and very dry. Very, very dry. Especially if your uncircumsized. Tape your forskin back, whatever it takes just keep it dry at all times. haha. Hope this helps. On a side note, what the f**k? Why couldnt have been one of the 3 that didnt get PPP? Its gets easier to deal with but still, I hate having to tell a girl before sex, oh by the way, i have wart like things on my penis that arent warts, heres the proof. Ive never had one reject me because of it but its still retarded. God damn it!!1
I'm pretty sure this is what I have. As these have just recently appeared, I'm curious about what to do. Everything I've read on this blog says that its harmless, not contagious, etc. and we should just learn to live with them. However, do these cause any discomfort? I mean, the friction between them and your pants when you walk...or more importantly, during sex? I have yet to have sex since I've noticed them so I'm very curious about this. I think I feel some minor discomfort as my pants brush against them, but then again that may be mental just because I now know they're there.
im thiniing of ways to keep my penis dry...
maybe cellotapig foreskine back... applying clearasil then leaving it.
would an elastic band be better or cloth?

hello all, I am a 19 year old male who has PPP, and I can not understand what the hell i did to deserve this. These things are responsible for ruining not only my sex life, but my life altogether. I have never had a girlfriend, never even kissed a girl in my entire life!! I am not trying to brag but i am a good looking guy, i am tall and muscular and girls often approach me, but i always find some way out of any situation even REMOTELY intimate because i am so scared of what will happen if i show ANY girl these bumps, she will think i am a freak and leave, tell all her friends, and i will be a laughing stock!! I am so depressed i can not even put it into words, i hate my life, i feel like i have no purpose on earth, my grades in school are terrible and i have used a lot of drugs through out my teenage years.
Ive been to see two doctors about these, they both gave me the same BS its normal blah blah blah just live with it excuse me but does that sound like a good line to tell a girl?!?! don't worry baby, those aren't warts....it's just some stupid little sh**s that i've had on my penis since i was about 13-14 years old.
i've tried using toothpaste, that didn't work at all. i tried iodine, it was quite painful and my penis was shedding skin, but it didnt really do much even though i did it for about a month and a half. i recently tried a home freezing kit, and it was quite painful, but i cant see the results yet...if this doesnt work, i'm just going to sit down with my parents and beg them to pay for the surgery to get them removed, because i can not live with myself any longer!!
i sometimes wonder where God disappears to in times like this.
