My experience with Pearly Penile Papules removal

I see people asking about it occasionally (including myself in the past) so I thought I should share my experience. I have been living with it for years until I had it removed recently. Before I had it removed I had few burning questions, of which little answers could be found here. So I thought it would be good for me to say something.

Firstly it's not harmful and it's not warts so by right you don't need to remove it. However if it's presence is disturbing to you, laser treatment is the option. At least that was the option I took, though you can find lots of bogus DIY at home remedies online.

I had mine removed at Dr Tan and partners. Dr Tan has been mentioned quite a few times in the forum, known for his attempts to rise awareness about HIV/STD etc. We always write FRs for WLs so why not I write one for Dr Tan.

I went to his clinic, walk in, for a consultation. He checked that those were pearls and not warts and he explained to be the process of removal. Once I decided on going ahead with it, he started with the treatment. I was told to lie on the bed and he started by applying numbing cream over my bro. He did up a simple dressing and I was told to "hang around" for an hour or so to wait for the cream to set in. His clinic was a bit small so I went out for a walk and came back after an hour plus. Once the cream sets in, he would then commence the laser treatment. For me, I didn't feel a thing until right at the end. He himself was quite amazed by my body's reaction to the cream. He explained that most people will feel a slight discomfort. Luckily for me, it was more of my mind playing tricks than physical pain. The laser treatment itself takes around 10-15mins so once it's done, he was just do up a simple dressing with cream and you are good to go. It was only then that I felt a bit of "feeling" like my dick's been tempered with.

location: Dr tan and partners
price: 300+ (best to check with him on this yourself)
pain: A very slight discomfort (wouldn't say pain) at the very end
recovery: No pain just need to wait for the skin to heal. Sex after a week.
