Circumcision & Scar Tissue Removal

It has been confirmed that while I’m undergoing a late in life circumcision that the removal of scar tissue build up will be done at the same time. Although it’s at truth, not the worst case of Peyronies there is a curve no doubt. We spoke about the injections but when I stressed the operation to physically cut out the tissue no argument was made and my doctor sided with me. Here’s a big issue and he said it’s due to lack of sexual activity and the scar tissue itself.

He noticed a huge build up of foreskin, where I replied with the truth. I used to be much bigger flaccid and that’s where the pile up is coming from. I also noted a decrease in erect size which he commented it on the scar tissue and lack of a normal sex life, go figure.

I didn’t bring it up there but with brief searches, it seems that it’s possible to place extra tissue around the base and maximize the length of the tubes during reconstruction. All of which will have to be cemented by a traction device. He asked me if it bothered me and truthfully I said yes. I know if it genuinely generates anxiety or mental fatigue that such additional operations can be covered by insurance. My question is, what about those new plastic devices that are placed top side your penis and come in various sizes? Elasticity wise my flaccid used to be a 5.5”er. But last I read that these plastic devices that fit over your penis are not covered under insurance. Does anyone know if this has changed? I’m not going to lie if in my particular situation a solution is presentable I’m going for it. However I have heard of aesthetic nightmares afterwards. Regardless the use of a traction device is used to help encourage a straight line and cement any possible gains. Am I eligible for the plastic device to be sheaved over the top side of my unit, or is it more of skin graphs, and pulling of the tubes that could be covered under insurance?

Where am I wrong?
Thank you in advance

What you’re eligible for depends on your medical insurance, unfortunately.

Sometimes you can just buy the hardware yourself, or if it’s in one of those “sale to medical professionals only” FDA categories, give your doctor the money and have him get it for you.

What kind of “traction device” are you looking at? The RestoreX device?

Where would this ‘extra tissue’ come from? Splicing some of the foreskin in down at the base?

I can play dumb and let them give me whatever device they assign me. Thankfully I’m hip with my primary care’s nurse practitioner (he’s a dude) who just so happens to know the penis doctor (sorry I can’t resist calling them anything else) personally. Who from there is good friends with the penile reconstructive surgeon. Let’s just say they want the best for me, on a subject that shouldn’t really be discussed that often.

He’ll lock me in on a RestoreX. I made him laugh when he said “I haven’t seen this much foreskin since fruit by the foot” pissed, I responded that it used to never be like that *cough*.

I have more then enough healthy fat around my stomach for any form of an “implant” while they’re in there. Extra skin would probably come from the stomach as well. I’m at a 24% BMI fatness right now and do plan on hitting the gym the right way once my life is in order. Sub 10% body fat is a goal so they can cut away.

What I’m worried about is the dreaded “bloated tick” dick look. Granted once your “in there” she won’t be complaining but aesthetics are of a concern. That’s why I’d rather have that weird new tube device installed on top the shaft more then anything. But last I checked it’s about a 5k - 20k surgery without insurance and no loans available.

There’s no doubt that between all three doctors that they’ll fight for me on the insurance side of things. The scare tissue did reduce size unfortunately and my flaccid was the one that took the biggest hit.

The only fortunate part is the flaccid elasticity stretches out to the good ole original 5.5” - 6” flaccid so I’m hoping for at least the large plastic tube installed. The extra large to extra extra large seems to only be for those who were endowed to begin with.

Is this cheating? Maybe. But damn it I totally forgot to that actually having sex would have avoided all this and honestly want to just enjoy the rest of the life I got, god damn it.

Anybody else?

Thank you in advance

If you value your penis, don’t get any implants or grafts or any size “increasing” procedures.

The only surgery you should be contemplating is reconstructive surgery to correct an actual issue like perione’s.

Over all the years I’ve been on TP, I have not one single time seen a story of penis implant, fat graft, or any other size procedure end well.

At best, you can expect to lose size and end up with a scarred, weird looking dick. Worst case scenario, you can die or at least lose your penis.

Every single solitary case of an implant in the shaft I have heard of ends up having to get it removed either immediately, or down the line after complication after complication.

Just DO NOT.

That is if you care about having a working penis in the future.

I’m not even going to say “IMO”. It’s just FACT.

Only people who have a financial interest in these things are proponents…. Or they haven’t gotten to the stage of experiencing complications YET.

Noted

Has there been any good results during said surgery? Is the penis tube thing covered by insurance yet?

Call your insurance and ask.

Yeah I could.
TBH I’m good just getting straightened, seeing what the scar tissue hindered. Not that it’s in my case but in some cases the tissue has suppressed up to 1.5” or more. Which of course the traction device more then likely aids in the lost recovery. Even at my scar tissue stats and girth if it was straight honestly it would be a straight claim for double standards due to skin pigment. Do women even care? Or is it just a friggen fetish?

Today I snapped some pictures of the old horse hanging out to say hi. Still not at my 5.5”ish flaccid length days but the sack was that of a bull so I’ll take it. Don’t get me wrong much to improve on.

Maybe you guys are right. After post therapy I might surprise myself and be like, shit that plaque build up was doing that to me?

On a side note:
As my natural testosterone, total, free and bioavailable keep beginning to return (test+AAS almost became a lifestyle for me before ALCOHOL relapse which not only lowers test and raises estrogen on its own. But I never came off testosterone the right way). Both EQ and flaccid pop in and out to say hey what’s up. At my age I’ll take it as many wouldn’t even recover possibly.

P.S.S
When I’m finally done recovering from my serious year and half long bender with alcohol I am and will go back to Testosterone and AAS lifestyle. I got the body for it and the brains keep saying “fool watch your heart, lungs, kidneys and liver if you do” So why not.

*prepares for the group of dudes who will say, do the surgery, post surgery @110% effort, go to the gym, read a book and cash in yo money foo*

What kind of doctor is this you consulted?

Why is the surgery and circumcision even necessary in the first place? Especially is your curve is not that bad?

I’m having a really hard time grasping how removing tissue your dick is supposed to make it bigger. Seems like a contradiction.

Is this a urologist who does reconstructive penile surgery, or is this a plastic surgeon???

Don’t get surgeries on your dick unless you absolutely have to. There is always a risk they will fuck up. And you only have and will ever have 1 dick.

I failed to find such a thing when I needed one a few years ago. Urologists who could cut it off and make a complete fake vagina, yes; do something about the scars that made my dick a freak show, “you need a plastic surgeon.” Plastic surgeons do tits, lips, and noses; only sub-specialists deal with anything else, and if there are any of those operating in my state, I failed to find them before the Coof fiasco and they all closed their offices and went home indefinitely.

I have no doubt there are some out there, but finding them isn’t easy. And all of their compatriots’ office staff will be delighted to schedule an appointment for you, so the doc can look and say “nope, can’t deal with that” and then you pay out of your own pocket, because not many insurance carriers will cover even reconstructive plastic surgery.

I don’t doubt that. The US healthcare system is fucking atrocious in general…
But I’m getting the feeling that the OP might be shopping for surgery instead of trying to figure out what the best thing for his penis’s health is.

And there are plenty of greedy, seedy plastic surgeons who will gladly take his money and butcher his dick.
