Foreskin reduction

Good evening.

I’ve done many searches on this topic and the only things I could find were topics on foreskin restoration. I am uncut and I am happy to be uncut, not that I am trying to start a discussion about that. The only thing is, I AM unhappy with the length of my foreskin, and it seems like PE only works to lengthen it. I really do not want to stretch it out any more, I actually want to do the opposite, maybe make it a little shorter so that it can retract automatically when I get an erection, and not look so bulky when I have an erection. I know this is a little weird to ask, since most questions are about the opposite, but is there anything I can do (or not do) to reduce the size of it? I took a break from jelqing and I am focusing on stretching now, seeing if maybe this works. Any addition information on this topic would be very helpful.

The only way that you can reduce the size of your foreskin is to have a circumcision.

I hope not. You say that so factual. Are you really that positive or you just think it’s better to not have a foreskin?

Not true.

There is a foreskin “trimming” procedure (similar method to a circumcision but just a little skin is removed).

I’ll try and search for more details for you.

Apparently, it’s just called a “partial circumcision” - and will leave you with your frenulum and much of your foreskin. As for exercises, no I can’t seem to find anything relevant; it seems most (all?) PE will if anything increase the amount of skin you have.

So whatever it is, it has to do with surgery? I was hoping to avoid that if at all possible. I was thinking something more like taping it back or something like that. Is skin able to “unstretch” if it is not consistently stretched? Or is it one of those things like PE that once it’s stretched it will always remain that length? Perhaps the people that stretched the skin attaching the scrotum to the penis in order to reduce turkey neck can offer some advice on this one. If you stop stretching that skin, does it go back to the original size?

I was including that, when I said circumcision, I was generalising.

I should’ve maybe said “The only way to reduce foreskin size is through surgery”. ;)

:up:

curious,

Not too optimistic about “unstretching”; doesn’t seem possible. Increasing your uppershaft girth may more sparsely distribute excess skin though.

That is not a bad idea Klayton, solve one problem by addressing another. I think when I am ready to attack my girth I will do some clamping instead of the jelqing I have always done to avoid additional stretching. It is not even that bad, I was just focusing on aesthetics. In addition to a larger penis I was also trying to keep a good looking penis.

Curious:

Although surgery might reduce the amount of foreskin you have, it will also remove the “frenar band.”

An “intact” foreskin has a ring of elastic tissue called the frenar band which closes the foreskin over the end of the penis. This might not be the solution you are after, because your remaining foreskin would probably be more ‘floppy” in appearance than what you currently have. I doubt that it would automatically retract very well when you are erect, as your remaining foreskin skin would be so loose, without that frenar band.

I vote for growing your shaft so it completely fills up that bulky foreskin you have now, as Klayton suggested. :)

Damfino, I really like your response, and I did some of my own research on the frenar band. I think this is a more appropriate question. My foreskin isn’t draping down two inches past the end of my penis, but it is rather baggy. Now I am wondering if I ruined my frenar band’s elasticity and maybe made it permanently stretched out. Do you have any more information about this? Perhaps there is a way to tighten that back up a tad, just to make the appearance a little neater? For now I am going to just let it be, sticking to only stretches where the foreskin is minimally involved. Please let me know if you have any information on this topic, as I will also be doing my own research on it.

Curious: I really know nothing more than what I wrote earlier about the frenar band. Do you believe you stretched the frenar band while you were doing some PE work, or some other way?

One thing to consider: Guys who have restored their foreskins by stretching, sometimes elect to have a bit of surgery done which tightens the end of the restored foreskin (where the frenar band would be located in an intact male). This type of surgery is usually done on an out-patient basis (in a doctor’s office or clinic instead of a hospital) and involves making a small “V” shaped incision which is then sewn back up with a couple of stitches, thus tightening the skin at the tip.

I realize this is still surgery, and perhaps not what you wanted, but it seems minimal to me and might work for your situation.

I really know of no other way to tighten stretched skin. Perhaps others can provide some further comments or suggestions.

Best of luck,

I’ve got a similar but apparently different problem. My foreskin is long (too long but ok for me at the current length - no longer though), but my frenar tight enough. But is it the experience of the experienced guys that the jelqing will definitely increase the length?

I’m enjoying the jelqing and experiencing amazing and fast gains and whatever the answer to the question would probably carry on, and get the trimming surgery later.but it’s a concern
