Devices and Methods

This page contains information on choosing a foreskin restoration device or method and a table of devices and methods farther down the page.

“What device or method should I use to restore?” is a very common question among those new to foreskin restoration. There is no simple answer for any given person. Any method that puts enough consistent tension on the skin will cause new skin to grow, so much of the decision of where to start depends on your particular situation. Some good questions to ask yourself are:

  • What can I afford? (There are methods that are free to those that cost hundreds of dollars. Spending more will not necessarily cause your skin to grow faster)
  • What works with my lifestyle? (Can I wear this at work? How easy is it to put on and take off? Do I have to take it off to urinate?)
  • What method can I use on a consistent basis? (This is important as you need use a method on a near daily basis)

Think carefully and make an informed decision before buying any devices or choosing a restoration method.

Many men have completed restoration with only one device or method. However if you find you are not getting any skin growth or the device or method is uncomfortable or not working with your lifestyle then try something else. In addition some men find different devices useful at different stages of restoration.

Research on tissue expansion indicates that in order to grow new tissue (skin) one must keep the tissue under tension for consistent periods of time, 5-15 hours a day for 5-7 days a week for example. When not wearing a device, keeping the skin forward over the glans with a tape ring or retainer can speed restoration and will protect the glans while your complete your restoration.
