Hi everyone. I've read the forums for a while but have not posted yet. I saw the posting today about the makeup pads for the Restorex and immediately ordered them.
I'm in my mid 50's, started with symptoms in early 2021. Been using the Restorex since about mid 2022. I have had 8 rounds of Xiaflex (you heard me right, 8 rounds for total of 16 injections).
I have not had significant improvement. Mild improvement so far. I used to have a curve of about 45 degrees up. Then I started getting about 15 degrees to the right in addition. Now it is still going up and to the right about 30 degrees each way.
I am done with the Xiaflex. I am now just focusing on consistent Restorex stretching, and start resuming the VED.
My least favorite part of all this is the narrowing and indentation from the plaque area forward. That's where the loss of length is coming from, and my goal is to restore my penis length and strength, at least in stages.
Mid 50's. Done 8 rounds of Xiaflex (16 injections). Very MINOR change. Started with 45 degree upward bend, but then for fun it added a turn to the right. Presently at about 30 up and 30 right. Focusing now on twice per day Restorex, every day.

Welcome to the forum! Xiaflex does have it's limitations for some men. I would say you have a plan of action and you should just stick with that. I have continued with traction and occasional VED and it still continues to help me. It takes time and a lot of patience. :)

Reading your post, it is clear that you had about a 15-degree improvement from 8 rounds of Xiaflex. Your improvement from Xiaflex is closely tied to which doctor does the injections and that doctor's skill.

Would you consider more injections from another doctor?
