Frenulum Tying!

Yip, I can also say that the scar doesn't hurt at all.
I wouldn't really call it a scar either - there's just a thick bit of skin below the glans, and a slight bump on the foreskin side, if you know where to look as you retract it.
Really no negative side effects which I have discovered yet.

When I do my next tying to go as deep as I dare for as much slackness as I can get, i'll stick to the thread i've used as it's what i'm used to now.

I've actually started wondering whether its not better to go slightly shallower than I went, and then for the next tie, do two about 1 cm apart.
 
Semi interested in jelquing definitely happy with my girth but length wise I'd love that to be just as impressive... Tying def the pressing issue... Wondering though is there a point you're aiming for with regards to frenulum length... I know some lads have them so loose that their foreskin goes back so far that it looks like they're cut... obv without the disadvantages of being cut... Is that your aim? Ie. Aesthetic as important as function?

Jan I've sent you a private message to join the flickr group...
 
Keep in mind that unless your frenelum is really short there might be a better option.

Stretching with an [words=https://shop.mattersofsize.com/products/sizegenetics-penis-extender]extender[/words] will also stretch your frenelum. I have gotten to the point where it doesn't give me any issue even with a larger than life erection. There are some barely visible rips along it.

This happened over the time of about a year of [words=https://shop.mattersofsize.com/products/sizegenetics-penis-extender]extender[/words] use during which I also gained an inch of EL. It seems you can almost do this indefinitely so I even might go to the point where there is no strain at all. Granted it takes time but imo it is worth it, there is no way I gonna tie my frelenum now.
 
Frenulum length - I'm aiming for a point where the foreskin doesn't have a tight spot when you retract it - i.e. the pull is equal all the way around, but I don't want it to look cut.
 
The frenulum will stretch, cutting it only speeds the process but it doers pose much bigger risk.
 
That's pretty much what I want as well Jan...

Went to buy stuff today: Got needles, polyester thread (is this ok?), Savlon... What else do I need?

I'll upload some pictures before and after I do it... think I'm going to go for it Sunday night when I get some time alone!

Yea I think I know what you mean. Like, instead of going deeper just do a few shallow ties up and down the frenulum? That might actually be the best way to reduce any potential scarring as they're much smaller incisions which, I imagine, would gradually lengthen the skin as it heals into itself, leaving behind very little scar tissue. For my next tie I will probably have to do something like this as I can't go much deeper or I'll hit that vein (still need to read up on that more).

Phallus, I'm seriously impressed by your photos - that was a really good job - thanks for posting them. :cool:

Thanks and no problem! Hopefully all the photos on the Flickr group will help others too. I'll be taking some more photos in the near future especially when I start doing the final ties to achieve equal tension. I've a feeling my next ties will be slightly more technical than the first ones...so I'll definitely upload the progress when the time comes!

Aesthetically my aim is to look natural with as little scarring as possible (there is barely any scarring anyway in my case) so this will be achieved. I already look cut pretty much now. Unless I apply a lot of force downwards, you can't really see the frenulum because it's healed into itself/the shaft.

My aim for function is the same as Jan's really. I would like as much slack as I can get but as long as there is equal pull all the way round I'll be happy. I will aim for maximum slackness though I think. In my case the only thing that is tight now is the phimotic ring which I'm still pondering on how to fix...I need to find out which creams are best and the best way of stretching it out. Finally I hope I can restore the skin's natural colour when the tightness has gone. Right now it's pale compared to its surroundings.

Yep the polyester thread should be great as long as it's strong enough to be pulled to a tight knot without snapping. Test a strand beforehand and if you find you're having to put some effort into snapping it with your hands, it will be just fine to tie with.

Did you get some of that EMLA 5% cream for the local anaesthetic? I would highly recommend it as I didn't feel a thing when tying.

It might be an idea to have tissue or cotton wool buds at hand to dab the area if you have to.

Apart from that I think you have everything! Good luck with it all on Sunday if you do it then! I'll be watching the thread if there are any problems/concerns :)

NervousBrit, I also found that alcohol swabs were very useful for cleaning and disinfecting beforehand - slightly easier to handle than savlon and cotton wool.
Do you have some form of antiseptic cream that you can apply on a 2 to 4 hourly basis ?
I also used E45 cream to soften things up - alternated between this cream and the antiseptic cream every 2 hours.
I have also heard that Vitamin E oil might help, and that the cream they use for babies who are getting teeth might be ok as a form of aneasthetic.
I found a surgeon's knot worked well - it seemed to add extra tightness as a added the upper loop.

Good luck !!
and keep us posted.
 
Friends, this as well as other threads and sites on www gave me inspiration to get rid of the frenulum. After lot of thinking, reading and observation i realized that the frenulum is causing premature ejaculation issue upon half lubrication, by extensive pulling of sensitive delta region.

So i tied the frenulum last week with fishing line, only to realize after 4 days that i've tied it too close to the glan and also had some irritation due to the stubborn fishing line causing scars on glan. However it cut through the frenulum upto 3mm (5mm was my target). Then i cut the thread and used a dental floss, which worked and yesterday morning i had 5mm of cut resulting in 10mm of free movement..

I used betadine to sterilize the needle and thread and cetaphil to keep the skin moisturized.I used to wash the glan daily twice with liquid betadine. My objective has been achieved half and i look forward for second tying to have fully and freely retracting foreskin. However, i too came across a vein (Almost 1.5mm in diameter) which i think will come in the way of second tie. As of now i cannot confirm this, as i done want to pull my frenulum till the current scar completely heals. in case anybody among you have tied with the vein, please put your experiences here......
 
Congrats itfellow !

Interesting that you used dental floss - how did that compare to the fishing line ?

I have been reading about the veins, it seems that they tie veins off to get rid of varicous veins, and to relieve cronic nose bleeding.
So it seems ok, I just can't figure out where that vein comes from - I think that is probably the bigger problem.
 
I'll post more tomorrow... Just thinking that tying veins doesn't sound like a great idea... This is where the real risk of infection is I think... No matter how hard you try to keep everything sterile... Different I think if it's a capillary because they aren't as important and don't carry anywhere near as much blood... Besides bloodflow to your dick is a pretty important thing to keep all the nerves working, maintain a hard on etc.
 
As per my opinion, dental floss is far more comfortable than fishing line. fishing line is too fast when it comes to cut through skin which causes pain.

I went through the yahoo group created for this subject and found many references of successful tying with veins. I had PM to one person who said that he tied with the vein. Yesterday i had put the second tie just before the bigger vein and planning to do the third one with the vein. In case anybody is skeptical about vein tying, please wait till i post my experiences, you will have to wait for 15-20 days although..

Yup, the waxed floss would be much more comfortable. The dental tape may be an option too.
