Extender to tighten circumcision

My circumcision is very loose, with remaining skin partly covering the head when I’m flaccid. I’d like a tight circumcision, with no skin covering the head at all when I’m soft, and not much skin movement when I’m hard. I went to the urologist, who said I should consider a revision to tighten things up, but he suggested first that I use the Andropenis device. The idea is that if my penis increases in size, the skin will tighten up.

I started using the Andropenis three weeks ago, and so far, so good, but I won’t notice any increase in size for a while, of course.

Has anyone done this or heard of anyone doing this specifically to tighten a loose circumcision?

For those of you who are circumcised and have used one of the extenders, have you noticed if your circumcision has gotten tighter?

Thanks for any information you can provide!

I think it depends on ‘how many cm/inch you need’ (i.e. how many excess skin you have, and how tight you want it to be).
I have a moderately loose circumcision, and I have noticed the skin does not hang over the glans (when flaccid) anymore since doing PE. Before PE, the skin would sometimes cover the top part, but only 10% of the time. Now 0%. But it’s not as you describe so tight that there is little skin movement when hard. And listening to your story, I don’t think that’s realistic… If it’s loose now, it won’t all of a sudden be a super tight circ after PE. You can’t gain 10 cm of penis to stretch up all that skin.

You have to be realistic on how many cm/inch you can gain from PE. If you feel you need 2 inch of extra penis, then I would go for the re-circ.

Also, people have reported different amounts of flaccid length gain… So it’s really hard to answer your question…

Be careful doing PE exercises that can stretch skin. Jelqing has been reported to stretch skin, as does hanging (more experienced members: correct me if I am wrong).

Finally: why do you want a circumcision that is so tight you hardly can move the skin when erect? Masturbation and getting hand-jobs will be much harder…

Keep us informed…
Take care,
Gus

The problem I see with that is that if you lengthen your erect penis, which will indeed tighten your skin, you might create more loose skin for your flaccid. All that skin has to become more taut to accommodate a bigger dick, true, but if you don’t get flaccid gains (and some guys remain growers even after big gains), there’s bound to be at least a little bit of excess skin created from stretching. So your flaccid might actually become more, instead of less, loose.

I know in my case, I gained more than half an inch BPEL but my resting flaccid increased only about a centimeter or so. So now my flaccid cock looks saggy on some days.

Though one possible dent in my theory is that I was jelqing, which stretches skin much more than extension does.

Thanks, Gus and Yummyarsenic, for your replies. I realize that this is a stretch (no pun intended) and that I would probably have to gain quite a bit of length in order for my circumcision to get as tight as I’d like it. However, I’m rather enjoying the PE thing, which I’ve never done before, and if I do get bigger I wouldn’t mind. I’ve been doing the Andropenis for about a month now, and I know it takes at least two months before seeing results, if any. I started at 14 cm. Erect length, 13 cm. Girth.

My urologist said he was “thinking outside the box” when he suggested the Andropenis to tighten my circumcision, and I appreciate that he didn’t want to rush into another surgery. My initial circumcision was in February of this year.

Gus, you asked why I would want a circumcision so tight that there is little skin movement when erect: it’s because of the way I jerk off; even when I was uncut, I didn’t like the usual moving the foreskin back and forth over the head, so I always pulled my foreskin right back, held the skin back from the base of my penis to make it really tight, and rubbed the head and shaft with my other hand. I never used lube either. I found that this method of masturbating gave me the most intense orgasms. Now that I’m cut, it annoys me that I still have to pull the skin back in order to get that really tight feeling when I’m jerking off. That’s why I want it tighter.

Thanks again for your replies. I’ll keep you posted.

My advice is just to go for it. Almost all PE is going to give you some degree of skin stretch, and extenders are probably going to give you the least stretch out of all the options. And worst case scenario, you get a bigger dick in exchange for a slightly looser flaccid. The skin on your erect cock almost definately won’t get looser.

Also, I recommend doing some research on different types of extenders. If you’re going to be shelling out hundreds of bucks, you might as well get one that you like. Popular ones are the Jes, Andro, VacExtender, X4, etc. Just do a search for them.

Yes, I’m definitely going to to go for it. I’ll take a bigger dick, even if the skin stretches a bit, and I can always have the circumcision surgically revised later, if I find that it’s still too loose. As for the different types of extenders, I went with the Andropenis, because that’s what my doctor recommended. I was surprised when he said that it really works, because I’d always heard that none of this stuff works and that it’s a big waste of money. As I mentioned, I’ve been using the Andropenis for over a month now, and it’s too soon to see results, but I certainly haven’t minded using it, and I actually find it kind of exciting.

I have a similar problem with a loose circumcision, I plan on using an extender soon and I’m hoping it will help.

The only thing I think you need to be careful about is where you attach the extender or you may end up stretching the skin even more,

I reckon a length gain of an inch would solve the problem and that’s not unrealistic ?

You have one last chance, If what your doing doesn’t works, Then go for circumcision :) No joke, But what am thinking is, when you jelq, or Stretch , You will stretch the skin, so as you didn’t do any thing at all, And don’t get panic, It’s just my point of view, Am not a doctor in the end, Good luck bro.

but what if he stretches only, holding the penis near the glans? that wouldn’t stretch the skin right?

Even so, Here the result is not guaranty, Some people Exercise for a month and gain, Some for a year, And Depends on how many inches he want to gain,There is reality in the end.

Mk22267, I’m already circumcised. I’m using an extender to tighten an existing circumcision. I have no expectations about what I’ll gain, and I realize that some people don’t gain anything. It’s worth a try though, and maybe it will tighten the skin. I’m being careful, as Gus suggested, to stretch the penis from the glans, and to make sure the skin doesn’t get caught under the device.

I’d always heard that PE didn’t work, so I was really surprised when my doctor, a respected urologist, said that they do work, and suggested I try this. We’ll see. I’d be very happy if I gained an inch, but I don’t know if that’s realistic.

Wow, a doctor that actually believes in PE ? Definetly a keeper!

Good luck CutNYC! Hope it works out.

Lol, what PE doesn’t work ?Well because it’s free, Doctors need something to get money from, I start PE in 7 July 2011, less then one month, I gain half CM, The thing is, this exercise you don’t need tools for it, And for some exercise the tools are very cheap, They need something to suck your money, Specially when it comes to sensitive subject like penis, Just keep Jelqing and Stretching, Use your time to gain both , Don’t focus only on Length , Have a good luck bro

Thanks, Gus! I’m looking forward to seeing results at some point in the future. I emailed Andropenis customer support to ask them if the Andropenis would work to tighten my circumcision, and this is what they wrote back:

“I spoke to our doctor and he told me that our device isn’t made for that kind of use. We do not have any scientific or clinical tests backing up that the circumcision will be tighter, therefore we can’t give you any guarantees. Nevertheless it seems to be logical that it will be somewhat tighter, he said. While using our devices the penis will gain up to 1.6’’ in lengh and 0.6’’ in girth. Therefore the penis will be thicker and the skin might be tighter.The treatment period will be 6 up to 8 months.”

And

“While stretching the penis shaft the skin also is being stretched proportionally with the shaft…therefore probably the skin will adapt the traction force and will grow a bit, but never as if you were uncircumcised.”

Even if the circumcision doesn’t get tighter, I’d certainly be very happy to gain up to 1.6” in length! I realize they said “up to”, but I’ll be happy with any gain, and as I mentioned earlier, I’m rather having fun with the PE device. I wear it to work, and I get a slight thrill knowing that my dick is getting stretched while I’m sitting in meetings etc. When I’m riding the subway to and from work, I also sit there wondering how many guys are wearing a PE device! In a city of 8 million, probably quite a few, I would think.
