Well, in the post above there are like 50 people giving their feedback, so I think that this is quite a representative subject pool. In addition to that, I personally know several guys who ran this protocol with lots of success. In any case, it is definitely worth trying before going for surgery, because a surgery can always have complications, and it will not give definitive results - a recession can take place even after a surgery. Just my two cents here. And no need to be afraid of offending anyone here - you can give your opinion and ask - as long as you do this in a respectable and educated matter, nobody will get offended.
