Hi, I just got the TLC tugger last night in the mail, and was wondering about how long it took people to notice a difference in sensation after using it 24/7? If that wasn't the main issue, how long did you guys have to do it until you felt more motivated to do it, or convince that this was worth it?

I'm about to start using it tomorrow or the day after, but just curious how long it took you guys to notice a difference, or at least feel convinced that it was worth it to restore?

Thanks a bunch, I've been an avid reader of this stuff, just never had the motivation to buy a restoration product until recently.

A return of sensation comes over time, with coverage. Coverage is the answer. Covering your glans, corona, and any inner foreskin tissue you may have, keeping those areas free from abrasion from underwear, etc., is what eventually allows that tissue to revitalize, and anyone can do this with or without a device (if you don't count bandaids as a device).

If you cover 24/7 then in a few months, maybe longer, you will start to notice some changes. For me, those changes continued, from time to time, over a couple of years. Sensation increased in increments (it took hindsight to realize this), and the glans tissue became shiny, the old inner foreskin soft, with some moisture accumulating during the day.

Several years may sound like a long time to a beginning person, but believe me, for many, if not most of us, it takes at least this long, and even then your skin tube can roll back on it's own without a retainer (tape, cone, tight underwear, etc) to maintain coverage. You have to develop a LOT of skin tube to counteract this.

Just start, continue on, and you will see the changes eventually.

Welcome Jason:)

I started restoring in January 2008 have been restoring pretty much 24/7 7 days a week, I noticed an increase in sensation rather quickly (I think was a few weeks didn't make notes) and things just keep improving as the process continues. I can say for me it hasn't came without some inconvience and discomfort but I can say without a doubt it has been well worth it. I can say I plan to go for a C10 how ever long it takes. I have noticed several different improvements in sex with the skin gained along with the increased sensations already and await futher improvement as the process continues.

My recommendation is set your mind to it you believe it is what you want and get started ASAP. I can say time is passing quickly, and the first few weeks were the toughest for me, I had virtually no slack.

I dont know if im in the position for you to accept my answer. But When i first got my tugger kit I wanted my sensation to recover first. So I started using the skin cone it self without tugging for two months. Within a month i started sensing intense sensitivity. the glans skin was sort of flaking off. but after another month it was shiny and brand new. From the second month onwards i started using the tugger (which is the hard part). My routine is I wear the your-skin cone at night and tugger during the day. that way my skin has a healing time. but thats what works for me.

good luck

Back when I started, I knew wanted to gain some moveable skin on my penis when I had an erection, but didn't think I'd restore an entire foreskin. After 2 months of tugging and keeping my glans covered, I knew I wanted to go all the way with it. Not only had my sensitivity increased a bit, but also it just looked and felt right to have the glans covered.

After a month or so both my wife and I noticed improved feelings during intercourse.

I did not try to remain covered.

I've been tugging for about 2 years, and have gone from CI-1 to CI-5.

However, I'm not usually able to tug during the daytime due to work, so it's usually the your-skin cone all day and 3-5 hours of tugging in the evenings. Sometimes I wear the tugging strap to bed but not too often.

After I had been tugging for a few months, I started to notice small pieces of skin flaking off wile I was jerking off, and that still happens.

All I can say is get started tugging and keep at it. 2-3 years may sound like a lot of time, but believe me, in 2-3 years you'll be glad you started now!

took me over a half a year to see any big changes, just stick with it, the skin has been abused and calloused and keratinized since it's been exposed for so long, it takes a long time to recover from that

When were you circumcised and how old were your when you started? It would be logical to assume the sooner you start, the sooner you will notice gains in sensitivity (in reference to your starting point).
