Inner foreskin can be grown along with outer. You can affect the growth rates of each to some extent, depending on your method, how you position it for applying tension, etc. But it takes some experimentation to get a feel for how much control you actually have. The highly mobile nature of the skin on the penis coupled with the major changes in size make it difficult to precisley apply tension. On the other hand, based on my experience, this same highly mobile nature of the skin seems to provide some evening out of tension which can help reduce any uneven look your foreskin may have.

Don't worry about making yourself numb. You won't have problems with numbness unless you do something extreme, at least in terms of skin tube growth.

You can, of course, cause numbness and damage from too much compression of the skin, but this is easily avoided by monitoring the usual signs for color, tingling, pins and needles, coolness to touch, etc. The typical things to watch out for when using something on your body that compresses tissue.

Well..........what greg said

You won't make your mucosa numb by tugging on it.

In my case, the consideration has been the opposite: the mucosa that was left to me has been a bit more difficult to tug on simply because it hurts with anything more than gentle tension (rather than becoming numb), unlike my shaft skin which can take more tension (which doesn't hurt, and hasn't become numb either). But, as greg has said, you can experiment with devices and methods to see what works for you. Most will probably pull on shaft skin more, but there can easily be some tension applied to mucosa at the same time. It may be that you have to use several different ways of applying tension throughout your restoration. I suspect that most of us should, anyhow, but that's a guess.

thanks for sharing all the information....

I was circumcised when I was almost 17, and remember how sensitive my penis was then compared to how it is now at 29........Ive probably lost at least half the sensitivity in my penis. Now that Ive been restoring for a few months I think I can get back most of that sensitivity that got lost in the head plus regrow some mucosal tissue. I have a good chunk of frenulum left to the point you can still see the triangular region, and that area has become almost painfully sensitive again. I got a blowjob the other dayand it felt a lot better than it did last year.....things are improving even if its slow

In your mind. Things are improving in your mind. That will wear off.

Good for you erm. I know that I went from being completely numb pre-restoration...the keratin was so thick that I couldn't even have an orgasm...to being sensitive enough to thoroughly enjoy oral sex again. The shedding of keratin makes a huge difference. The other major difference comes in gaining the gliding mechanism.

More than just the mind my friend. The body conditions the mind in this scenario. Having been intact through most of my penile growth and development before circumcision, I can definitely now see how my penis became numb and dry over the years and lost a lot of sensitivity. Just staying covered creates a pretty dramatic difference for glans sensitivity.

[WoundedBird]

And more importantly than glans sensitivity is inner foreskin and frenular delta sensitivity...at least for me. And shedding keratin makes a massive difference in that.

Here is my post from fb on how genital mutilation is sexually diminishing. Feel free to quote/copy/paste it any and everywhere. It will save many.

"Before reading watch this video of a male genital mutilation: (*NSFW Graphic*) http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...7516627632617#


I am genitally mutilated and hate it - it's sexually diminishing. Circumcision affects women too: http://www.sexasnatureintendedit.com/ Because of a parent taking the choice over my body, I like 200,000 other men are restoring their foreskins to regain sexual sesnitivity and undo some of the damage of circumcision: www.tlctugger.com www.norm.org And am hoping for foreskin regeneration to get everything I lost back: www.foregen.org


The keratinization or drying out and building of a layer of keratin of the glans and penile mucosa to protect the penis from air and clothing due to the loss of the prepuce's protection further reduces sensitivity. Here is a picture of a penis with a keratinized glans v a shiny intact penis: http://intactivists.blogspot.com/201...tatus_315.html

Hand test: Run your fingertip down the back of your hand. Now run it down the palm of your hand. Clear difference. Notice how even after you stopped touching the palm of your hand you could still feel the line you drew with your fingertip. Your palm has Meissner’s corpsucles (touch-sensitive nerves) that the back of your hand does not. The male foreskin has 20-70,000 of these. “Just a flap of skin”? Obviously not. Everything lost to circumcision: www.wholebabyrevolution.com/The-Lost-List.html


"Only being able to see in black and white, for example, rather than seeing in full color would be like experiencing an orgasm with a foreskin and without. There are feelings you’ll just never have without a foreskin."

"The greatest disadvantage of circumcision is the awful loss of sensitivity when the foreskin is removed. . . . On a scale of 10, the intact penis experiences pleasure that is at least 11 or 12; the circumcised penis is lucky to get to 3."


"Within minutes, three feet of veins, arteries and capillaries, 240 feet of nerves and more than 20,000 nerve endings are destroyed; so are all the muscles, glands, epithelial tissue and sexual sensitivity associated with the foreskin. Finally, what nature intended as an internal organ is irrevocably externalized..."


"I tell people on a scale of 1 to 10 that intact my sex life was a 10. Circumcised it was a 3, and restored it is a 7. Ill never have a 10 again (only God can design the perfect penis!), but a 7 is a heck of a lot better than a 3! (P.S. I have 2 intact young adult sons who are both grateful they were kept that way.)" - From: "Circumcised as an Adult"A guy who was intact, got cut, and restored his foreskin: http://notjustskin.org/node/47"


"To cut my long story short (no pun intended), orgasm decreased tremendously. The continuous “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!” described above turned into “ah ah ah” at most. Masturbation (which I’m not a fan of for personal/desensitization reasons, but I realize many people like it) lost pleasure altogether. Barely a sound comes out. Ejaculatory force decreased, with loss of propelling powerful Orgasm, and indeed the penis is dry and uncomfortable. It’s been a year now, and I can’t wear boxers because it hurts when my uncovered head rubs against clothing. I bought the Manhood protection device, and it does help somewhat. I realize that soon my head will lose all sensation and it won’t hurt anymore, but that’s not consoling one bit." - " Circumcized at 23 - Personal Story": http://foreskin-restoration.net/foru...ead.php?t=4791


"Without nerve endings,one cannot feel --

much as without eyes, one cannot see.

Fran P. Hosken"
