I got an inflatable penile implant several months ago but I have lost a lot of glans sensitivity now. I would like to try a foreskin restoration device but am afraid it may damage my implant. Anybody here have info on this??

dmikesaw, you should speak to your doctor about it. Chances are it's fine (if you can have sex with the implant, it should be able to withstand some pulling on the skin of the penis), but you may need to let it heal before you begin.

This is a difficult question to answer because we don't really have any accounts from people with penile implants that have been restoring for significant periods of time.

I would tell you to ask the surgeon, but chances are he knows nothing about foreskin restoration and wouldn't be able to give you a good answer either.

Honestly, I don't think it's a good idea.

I don't see why it would be a bad idea. Just research the methods you're interested in using, and then talk to your doctor about it. Whether s/he knows about foreskin restoration or not, s/he should be able to say whether it will impact the implant in any way. And you should get a second opinion if you're not happy with the first one.

I have just sent email invitations to about a dozen TLC clients who mentioned implants in notes to me over the last several years. I invited them to come here and share their experiences.
