Considering his alloderm surgery. Thoughts?

What is alloderm? Is that grafting?

[TonySa]

Yes, a type of graft tissue.

welcome to the forum

Thank you.p

Allodern is de-cellularized human skin taken from cadavers. The DNA is removed so it can be implanted in the body without being rejected as a foreign body. It's used as an internal graft tissue.
This is the surgery I am looking into. But if it requires I cease my foreskin restoration stretching process, by causing scar tissue formation that will impede my success, I'm not having the surgery. Gotta talk with Dr. Lue about it. I'd rather have a restored foreskin that Peyroines surgery if I have to pick between the two. Foreskin is more important to me than Peyroines treatment.

Hey jan. Welcome. I wonder at this time how old is Dr. Tom Lue by now? IS it still worth it to go to him?

[TonySa]

Dr Lue is still going strong.  Note, he doesn't actually do surgery any longer as he is training others.  He dies the Xiaflex himself though.
