i've been watching this forum for quite a little and finally get registered. First problem is that I want to get rid off my frenulum and i was wondering how deep should i go . In the pictures that are in this post you can see the problem and i'm open to ideas

ED: I hope you can see now

mr.little - I can see your post now on page 36 (post #718). It looks like perhaps its your foreskin and not your frenulum? What does it look like with the foreskin pulled over the head? Can you post a photo of that using directions from post #727? If its your foreskin there are lots of ways to stretch that to relieve the tightness without tying or cutting.

Hey BigBeardBig, did your tying work well?

Hi brother sorry I forgot to post in this topic.
The tie came off yesterday and Im AMAZED with the results. I gained probably more than 1 inch of free space with this method.
Now Il wait until it heals and decide from there :)

Im so happy I found this topic and did it.

Wow, you gained an entire inch in the process? That is mind blowing!
 
Did my second tye yesterday, took me about 10 seconds :)
Only hard time-consuming part was the surgical knot lol

Once you do this, its never a problem do it again. No shaky hands, nothing.

Yeah, 1 inch of free skin space, not 1 inch PE length gain. Just to be clear :)

Well when you are finished there should be an instant increase in length.
 
After long time having problems with my frenulum, tearing it twice, I decided to tie it also. Thanks to BigBeardBig for helping me to make my decision.
Now I just want to make sure how to do it right.
Do you guys think 3mm thread, same kind as stretch magic will work? Or should I keep looking for 5mm thread?
And should I apply cream with bactirin after every time I soak in water with salt?
And will the table salt(the one used in the kitchen) that's iodinized work, or should I get different kind?
And I will be getting syringe needle, like some other guys in this thread. Better have both sewing and syringe needles and decide what to use later on.
Plus, thanks to all the guys that did it and shared their experiences. It helps a lot.

Hi GhostRider, I thought about your frenulum recently (lol sounds weird) but I remembered you.
Hope you did alot of research about this, it will be best decision you ever did regarding your penis helath brother.
Now I will try answer your questions, those answers are only my opinions based on my won experience.

Do you guys think 3mm thread, same kind as stretch magic will work? Or should I keep looking for 5mm thread?
- I believe 3mm thread would work just fine, but if you can find 5mm it will be best as you have here tens of brothers who did 5mm and all worked perfect.

And should I apply cream with bactirin after every time I soak in water with salt?
- thats what I did, not sure if neccesary, you should be fine even applying only 2 times a day

And will the table salt(the one used in the kitchen) that's iodinized work, or should I get different kind?
- should be absolutely fine, but Id go for sea salt.

And I will be getting syringe needle, like some other guys in this thread. Better have both sewing and syringe needles and decide what to use later on.
- good thinking, I used syringe needle to make the hole, sewing needle to get it all through. make sure everything is clean and sterilized.
 
Hey guys,

I'm prepping to tie my frenulum for the first time. Ordered some 0.5mm stretch magic and some EMLA cream online (very hard to get in Australia and costs $70 for 30g); string arrived today, expecting the cream tomorrow.

Bit of back story: mild phimosis, and frenulum breve (not as bad as some, but bad enough). Started using flesh tunnels to fix the phimosis, seemed to be working well, but it started cutting my frenulum - it still hasn't healed properly after 23 days (retraction of the foreskin reopens/splits the original cut). On the plus side, the original cut has not healed back the way it was before, so I've gained some frenular length from this (similar to doing a shallow tie in the centre of the frenulum).

Even before the cut, the frenulum pulled and hurt if I tried to retract past the corona of the glans (I can get the foreskin behind the corona but the frenulum is pulled tight along the groove in the glans, any further retraction pulls hard on the glans and causes tipping). Never had sex, but I am worried it would tear, so I want to sort it out sooner, rather than later.

The other issue is the frenulum pretty much joins onto the meatus, which as far as I can tell, isn't the norm, but isn't unheard of either. The result is 2 "lips", like the labia minora on a woman. It may also explain why I generally can't pee straight and it tends to spray a fair bit.

Plan of attack: I think what I want to do is a tie that separates the frenulum from the meatus at the top of the lips, using the labia analogy where the clit would be. It's important to me that there is no nub of tissue left on the meatus, but I guess I'll have to workout how to fix that if/when it occurs (hopefully it won't happen or will heal into itself quickly). Another user (sorry forget who) posted this image, which describes my thinking quite well:
View attachment 31545

As a bit of a trial, I've marked a line using a Sharpie where I want the knot to sit (top of the lips) and another line 5mm along the frenulum where I am wanting to put the needle. I've then marked 2 dots close to the glans in line with second line (confused?).

Once this tie has pulled through, I'll assess if I need to make a second one; if I do, I think I'll repeat what I did with the first, slowly working my way down the glans until I'm happy with the result (painless retraction, hopefully most of the way down the shaft and no skin tags or hard lumps).


So, does anyone have any tips or suggestions? Is this method going to work and give me the result I'm after?
 
Hi _MustNotFap_, I think in your case is better to make double tie technique to get rid of meatus connection first and create clean look.

Where would you put the 2 ties?

I saw some of the pics you posted (black stump between ties and a bit of a wound) - does this tend to hurt more and take longer to heal than a single tie would? I guess I'm concerned about necrosis spreading from the intended area and causing complications.

I'll think about this a bit over night, but I think I might take on your suggestion. I guess the easiest way to get 2 strings through is to use a single double length piece, folded in half through the eye of the needle and then pulled halfway through the frenulum, snip the needle off leaving 2 strings.


Thanks for the advice

So, just made my first tie (it's been in for about an hour so far) - using the B2T method. Feels kind of liberating.

Thoughts: probably could have gone a little closer to the glans, but I was worried about an vein coming from within the shaft (not in the frenulum) into the glans and also about slipping through and piercing the glans.

I pulled the needle most of the way through but added a few drops of water based lubricant to the eye of the needle and the string going through the eye - seemed to do the trick, the eye went through very easily.

In terms of pain, there was none for 99% of the process - a thick smear of EMLA saw to that. There was a small throb, not so much painful as uncomfortable, when I tightened the lower string (furtherest from the meatus).

Strings have been tucked under the carona on either side, which keeps them from hanging out of my foreskin.

The piece of frenulum between the 2 ties is a little swollen and feels like a knotted rubber band (slightly squishy, but firm).

Latley I did a lot of research on methods of fixing short frenulum problem. And there're a two basic methods that are worth a try- tying and surgery, called frenuloplasty. I wanted to compare them and make educated decision on what is best.
What I found out is that many times uroligist just screw up the operation which simply doesn't help. They cut you and you get very little or none results at all. Most of the time doctors will tell you that "if you can move foreskin behind the glans you don't need an operation and they won't perform it". Yeah, I tore my frenulum 2 times, but they don't care. And if you persuade them to do frenuloplasty on you, they still screw up. Besides the fact that there is not much improvement, many guys have a lot of scar tissue. It looks kinda ugly. This is the best post-frenuloplasty image I seen so far:

Most cases look much worse, especially that you won't gain much freedom woth your foreskin. The guy in the photo was lucky to find a good urologist.
And tying seems to be much better. More gradual, less or no scar tissue, more free movement of foreskin gained, and much cheaper. Plus you can decide when you have enough for yourself. Many times urologist leave a lot of extra skin, leftovers from frenulum and just leave it to be, cause "it shouldn't interfere with sexual activity". With tying, you can fix all that.
That's why I decided finally to tie my frenulum. I ordered all the stuff online, And it should get to me shortly. On friday or monday.
I will tie then, and let you know how it go.
 
GhostRider: Amen ! Frenulum tying is the way to go. You do it yourself, first tie is usually just a start, you most guys need 2-3 ties until its all perfect.
Zero pain, no scar tissue if done correctly, awesome lookin dick at the end. Amazing new freedom, you will feel very proud you did better job than urologist ever would.
 
It seems the tie closest to the meatus slipped last night, so the area it was pinching off was too small. I don't think it was quite tight enough to begin with, so I tried to untie it and retie it - big mistake - all i succeeded in doing was making it looser and rubbing the frenulum raw :(.

I ended up cutting both ties off (couldn't get the needle through where the lower tie was and I wanted a common point of entry) and retying them. unfortunately I couldn't find the original hole on one side, so I ended up having to make a new exit - oh well. Knots have been retied, hopefully this time they go full term and fall out naturally and I haven't done too much damage
