How about cock wrinkles?

I just noticed this today, after posting the thread about cock discoloration the other day - this is sort of a companion thread, lol.

When I was in the restroom at work today, I noticed a lot of creases on the topside of my shaft, from about the middle down to the base. I think I was getting these creases earlier, but they’re much more prominent now.

(1) Are these indicative of a new growth phase?

(2) Are these the precursors to stretch marks? <ouch!>

I got many stretch marks from my lifting days - especially around my upper, outer pecs, my anterior deltoids, & all over by biceps, and some on triceps. Some were very purple & deep (you could stick the tip of your finger in and feel the ridges within each stretch mark). But that was cool - sort of a “badge of honor,” so to speak. But, damn, I don’t want them on my dick - especially since that would be indicative that I “did something” to my dick. I want my size to seem “natural” - lol. Anyway, I sure don’t want scars all over my tool.

Any thoughts?

Wad,

It’s my thinking that the wrinkles come from stretching skin. I have them, too, and I haven’t been bothered by them much. Actually, I’ve grown to like them and I check to make sure they’re still there, to tell you the truth. I share your concern about getting stretch marks, especially since I get them easily. I’ve been watching the area around the base of my penis very closely this past week, and I’ve definitely noticed a change in the skin and I think it’s an emerging stretch mark. I’d rather not have them, but it’s well worth the price for a bigger penis or restoration of my foreskin.

I’ve noticed that I get temporary midshaft wrinkles immediately after doing sadsaks squeeze. Dunno if it’s a good sign of growth as I have a short PE record!

Yep, stretching skin is what it is. I’m getting some deep stretch marks now from my hanging since being back into it the last month. I’ve got them going around the shaft about halfway down to the base…and down into my pubic area. Also have some that run up FROM the pubic area about 2 inches down the shaft in a linear direction toward the glans….so I have stretch marks going in both directions. No big deal to me though. It’s part of the process.

This theme runs familiar with me as well. I know that after having done PE for a few weeks after just starting out, that the onset of wrinkles started to happen.

Actually, it is more comparable to the analogy of where you drop your pants and as it falls to the ground around your ankles, the pants is sort of in a creased bundle going up your ankles and calves a little bit.

I like it actually, although the trick now is lengthen the other parts of your penile anatomy to fill in the stretched skin now. Although there will be “sagging” skin anyways!

I’ve got the wrinkles/stretch marks too. The dark bands disappear when I get an erection though so they are not too bad.

Yeah I got wrinkles. I think it’s just extra foreskin though. They only show when I roll the skin back, and then there are a few “belly-like” flab rolls towards the base :)

Yeah got them to, but the second I get a little fluffed they disappear. I really don’t care about the color or the wrinkles just as long as it grows into the “BEAST” The only thing the chicks have said about my dick is things like “fuck me with that big fucking cock” so I don’t mine a few wrinkles.

I got some stretch marks at midshaft and at the base. They’re not that noticable, but more noticable on same days. Its not even a big deal to me, but the extra skin at the base sucks(turkey neck).

Me too, its fine with me that my cock looks 50 as long as it looks 8 as well.

I’ve got some, too, though primarily it’s a bunched foreskin-like hang. I had a very tight circumcision and my cock has always been really sleek, so it’s taking some getting used to.

The activity that’s happening at the base, on the other hand, is similar to something Gandolf has noted: there’s a band of paler skin extending from the base about 1/2 inch. It looks like new skin.

It may be some sort of foreskin restoration’s happening; all in all, not a a bad trade for the gains.

lol

Wadzilla, I wanted to start by saying that I have really appreciated your insights on PE as well as specific routine outlines. I’m in my early fourties and I’ve just discovered and began PE two months ago. Your thoughts on lig, tunica and girth as separate components were particularly interesting and I had printed out and followed your stretch routine suggestions.

I started hanging about two weeks ago keeping to 2-4 sets/day, 20 min each set with 5lbs. I have recently noticed the wrinkles described in this thread and as the thread is 5 months old had wondered if there were any updates. Do people feel that the wrinkles are a good precursor to growth? Do they lessen as the internal growth occurs? Has anyone discovered a good remedy in the form of light stretching/jelqing or even cream application as a means of combating the wrinkles?

Thanks to all for the great information I’ve been able to discover and for again considering this wrinkle issue.

I would do a search for lotions specifically for stretch marks, but until you find one, any good lotion should help.

I like to use Vaseline Intensive Care Lotion after my workouts and after a shower.

I saw this Maderma stuff in the drug store the other day. Skin Care for Scars, Scarring & Stretch Marks | Mederma®

"Scars can be caused by any type of skin injury or wound. Ideally, a scar is smooth, flat, and blends in with surrounding skin, but sometimes very visible, unattractive scars can appear.

"Nothing can make scars totally disappear, and nothing can hurry the natural healing process (MEDERMA® is not intended for open wounds). However, MEDERMA® Skin Care for Scars™ helps scars appear softer and smoother."

The size I saw was about $10 a tube. I’ve been wondering if Mederma might have other applications for PE. I don’t know what.
