FORESKIN RESTORATION OR DE-CIRCUMCISION.
If you were circumcised, are dissatisfied and would like to reverse
some of the effects of this operation, you are not alone.
Thousands of men are undergoing foreskin restoration today, and their
numbers are growing.
While non-surgical restoration of the foreskin takes patience, the
benefits of this process are many.
A return of sensitivity to the glans and what remains of the inner lining of
the foreskin are the most notable benefits.
Others include protection from chafing by clothes, protection from cold weather
and harmful effects of the sun (if you’re
a naturist), and a feeling of regaining control of one’s body after it was
violated by others.
The erogenous tissue and mucous membrane of the foreskin are gone
forever, but with skin stretching, the glans can be recovered and the
appearance and function of a real foreskin can be approximated, bringing with
it a renewed feeling of wholeness. Not surprisingly,
most restorees also experience enhanced sexual satisfaction.
A restored foreskin can enable you to enjoy sensations you had
never previously experienced. This is especially
good news for men who are circumcised so tightly that they experience pain with
erection, masturbation or intercourse.
Once the glans is covered and protected, the keratinization
process reverses itself, sometimes with dramatic speed. This means that the extra layers of skin
slough off.
Most men restore by stretching.
Some undergo surgical foreskin restoration, which is costly and not
without risk. Also, the result is
generally not as satisfactory as the stretching technique has proven to
be. Some men have recovered the glans by
persistent manual stretching.
The standard stretching technique is as follows:-
Purchase a good brand of first aid tape, either of the paper, cloth,
or plastic variety. Tape especially
designed for sensitive skin such as Transpore (can be found at most drug stores, chemists or surgical supply stores).
Do not use masking tape or cellophane tape, as they will cause discomfort.
To begin, pull the existing shaft skin forward over the glans and
hold it in place with tape. This may be
difficult at first, depending on the severity of the circumcision. Over time, the skin stretches, much like an
earlobe does when weighted down with heavy earrings.
Progress varies greatly -- sometimes taking months or years.
Be patient. Much of the
stretching takes place during nocturnal erections if you stay taped at
night. This may be painful if the skin
is too tight.
At any sign of pain, loosen or remove the tape.
Over time, the skin will stretch and become more comfortable.
Eventually a point of equilibrium will be reached. Then little or no progress will be made by
the tape alone.
Certain devices are then needed to facilitate the stretching process.
These work by providing more surface for the skin to be pulled over, and by
adding weight or tension on the skin.
Various weighted devices are available.
Some men also use an elastic strap device.
Others simply use consistent and persistent manual stretching
techniques.
It is advised that you seek out a local support group, known as
**NORM, the National Organization of Restoring Men.
These groups can provide valuable technical support, as well as the moral
support one needs for a lengthy process of this type.
