Restorex is designed for the correction of curvatures caused by Peyronie’s Disease; not for lengthening of the penis. I’ve been using Restorex now for a month and have am beginning to see some results (encouraging, but nothing to write home about.. Yet.) There are 2 primary differences between Restorex and extenders (that I’ve used or seen): 1) Restorex contains a head clamp to secure the penis to the device and 2) Restorex contains a hinge about 1/2 way up the device.
RE Head Clamp: You’re expected to wrap your penis with self-adherent gauze tape. Next place the head of your penis in the top of the Restorex, then close and lock a clamp on the head. This secures your penis to the device. Almost every extender device I’ve seen seems to have an issue surrounding the process used to secure the penis head. Restorex is no different. In my experience, the head must be re-secured multiple times during use. My most successful sessions involved me holding the clamp down onto the head throughout my use of the device. The clamp hurts; no doubt about it. Part of the documentation states: “If during the clamping process or treatment session you experience pain or numbness in the penis, open the clamp, re-position the penis and continue the treatment.” So pain/discomfort appears to be expected. Additionally, the company cautions the user: “1) Do not use RestoreX for more than 1 hour daily or for >30 minutes at a time and 2) Separate 30-minute treatment sessions by at least 30 minutes.” I wonder if these limits are due to the potential damage that could be cause by the clamp. I have found the clamp is my least favorite aspect of my use of the device. But it hasn’t stopped me from using it twice daily.
RE The Hinge: The user is expected to adjust the hinged top half (up to 120 degrees). The device has hinge positions at 0, 30, 60, 90, and 120 degrees. Part of the advised use of Restorex is to attempt to increase the degree of the bend used. So you may find yourself adjusting the device multiple time during a session. I can get my penis to 120 degree position about 50% of the time. 90 degrees is much more do-able. However, I always strive for 120 degrees. Failure to obtain 120 degrees has always been caused by trouble with my penis slipping out of the clamp; not by any discomfort caused by the bend.
My final take away of the Restorex is I would recommend it, if your intended use is for the correction of curvatures caused by Peyronie’s Disease. If you are wanting to use it for penis lengthening, then extenders are cheaper and also designed that use.
