Default Looking for advice (ventral outer skin)

I'm guessing at least one of you has run into something similar or, heard about someone that has. I have no way at all to do any pictures right now so a verbal description is what everyone is going to have to work with. Due to that, I will be as detailed as humanly possible.

The basics:

High cut with the scar near the pelvis which left mostly inner skin and the frenulum.

There is only scaring on the dorsal side and not the ventral.

Like pretty much everyone the scar runs parallel to the pelvis.

I have between CI3 and CI4 flaccid. It's easily a CI4 when my testicles are warm enough to cause the scrotum to expand so that the testicles are further away from the body in order to decrease their temperature. However like most it can't stay there without some help.

I have the visual appearance of between a CI1 and CI2 when erect but, there is enough slack to allow "gliding". However, based on the potential availability of scrotum skin slack, when gripping the base of the shaft, there is enough skin slack for the entire shaft to "glide" and to cause the skin to "collect" near and partially on top of the Corona during a stroke. That amount of skin slack from the scrotum is fully dependent on how warm my testicles are and, how much my body is trying to cool them. Regardless of this though, the size, density, shape of the erection doesn't change.


The problem:

Due to how circumcisions are done, I have more outer skin on the dorsal side than the ventral side. Now, normally it looks like that wouldn't be an big deal. However, in my case it appears that the stitching on the ventral side was done incredibly close to the scrotum. This would explain why my scrotum rides up where it does when erect and why my penis curves down to some extent. There is some space between the scrotum and the ventral outer skin but, it is minimal. There is far more space between the dorsal outer skin and the pelvis. Like we needed any more proof circumcisions are a guessing game right?

Anyway, assuming the ventral side stitching was done parallel to the dorsal side, my fingers of both hands would have to sit on each other for Method 2 when trying to target this specific area and, that's clearly not possible.


What I have tried:

I have tried Method 2 when flaccid but my hands aren't exactly small. I have tried Method 2 when erect but, again my hands aren't small and then there is an issue with girth that already causes me to have to use my middle finger and thumb instead of my index finger. While I am pretty dexterous, it's just awkward to try and target specifically that area.

I have also tried Method 3 as I have enough inner skin flaccid to do this. However, it moves the scrotum up onto the shaft and I am concerned that it is targeting the scrotum rather than the ventral outer skin especially since it pulls the scrotum skin up higher on the shaft than what an erection does. Well, at least it would if you were comparing flaccid to erect like they were scale models of each other and they aren't. In actuality, it may not be pulling the scrotum skin up further than an erection does. I may just be far more aware of it visually and physically when I'm flaccid.

I have also tried to just use a single finger of each hand on the ventral side and going in different directions with them. Just picture half of the OK shape used in Method 2. While I have the dexterity to pull this off, it doesn't feel like an even stretch on the dorsal side. Most of the tension is felt in the center. While it's true that I could alter my finger placement as needed, that would lead to uneven growth in areas on the ventral outer skin not to mention the inevitable finger cramping.

At this point, I'm thinking I may just need to get a little more inner skin slack to reduce the pull on the scrotum and then use one hand in Method 2 on the base and the other hand in Method 3 at the ventral side of the glans.


What I am looking for:

A method or a way to combine methods in order to target this area for the time being. I am looking to target the outer skin on the ventral side only.

Does anyone have any thoughts or suggestions?

I think what you need is a variant of the reverse taping method. Instead of enrobing a full uniform cylinder in your skin, start with something that is wide on the bottom only.

Wanted to split an update into a separate post. This thread may prove unnecessary. If I'm right, I'll feel like a complete moron.

I'm starting to doubt the scar I have been using as a basis is the correct one. For one it makes no sense that it's only on the dorsal side of the penis even if it has the Gomco clamp discolouration. The other reason doubt is creeping in is because of the difference in texture and colour further up the shaft. I have always attributed it to staying "bunched up" against my Corona. There is however a very, very, very thin line of discolouration that runs all the around the shaft where the colour and texture changes start. This all runs damn near entirely parallel to the slant of the Glans. I always assumed it was also from the skin clumping up and sitting on itself sort of like a "fold/roll of skin" would. It's only visible if I pull the skin back taught or during an erection.

I know, I know, a picture is worth a thousand words lol. Anyway, I would still call it a high cut especially compared to all the low cut pictures I have found online.

These pictures are really low res, out of focus, etc. but, they will prove I'm not totally batshit nuts and will give everyone some idea of what I am talking about from the dorsal view while flaccid. The "sheen" on the skin is olive oil I used a moisturizer early tonight.

The first one is of the "lower scar" which is what I originally thought was the circumcision scar.

The second one is with the skin pulled back to show where I think the circumcision scar actually is. The lower scar isn't visible in this picture because of how far I had to pull the skin back.

I have stretch marks on my penis around where you thought your scar was. They were caused by a really tight cut, and then natural growth and erections, and predate my restoration effort.

Your photos are a little bit out of focus, so it's really hard to comment on the detail. I would suggest you try again with the photos, but make sure they are in clear focus, with perhaps a marker slightly outside your penis showing what you are talking about, as it's kind of difficult to be sure what you mean from blurry shots with no markers in them.

By the way, this is meant to be helpful, in terms of making it easier to advise you, and not criticism of your photography skills. I have my own progress thread, and know it's not easy to take pics like this well, as it's hardly a natural photography angle!

Yea the angle is certainly hell but, a really bad 2MP camera didn't help either lol. I'll get some shots up before the end of the month as well as compiling my threads and some of my posts into a chronological thread in the progress section. I've just been really tied down for the past week or two now especially the past couple of days.
