Well golly, the swelling has gone down, and the stretch magic is actually cutting through the skin! So excited to see the results!
Thanks so much for your encouragement, FrenBreve!
So... the results are in. The ties fell after 4 days. There was a slight discomfort towards the end because the piece between the ties dried and was poking the healthy flesh. As much as I tried to reduce nubs and bumps there is still a small piece left. I guess it was inevitable seeing how high my frenulum went. Anything that can be done about that? Will it retract?
Anyway, there's a big flap remaining now as I was expecting due to the size of the thing. Most likely I will need 2 additional ties. Pics are taken abt 16 hours after the first tie fell. Meatus is still not completely free but I have to say I'm happy about the results so far. Any further advice is more than welcomed. Glad I found this forum
Thanks! Good luck to you too! Second set of ties are out today after 7 days. I'm not surprised seeing that the amount of skin was much larger this time. I will revert with photos tomorrow after a little healing time and result analysysWow I really think you are on a good way. I am also a fan of the "two tie method" because it already reduces the size of the skin flab that remains.
Your frenulum really is an extreme case. but I am sure that with the two following extra ties you can remove nearly the whole thing.
I for myself are tying my frenulum for the second time as well right now. one tie already broke, the other still remains. I will post everything here with pics and story when the second tie broke as well.
Until then. Good luck and have a nice day!
If you are happy with it then well done. I believe you were just a little impatient. I wanted to take my time with it seeing that my frenulum was connected to the meatus. I believe it workes. Anyway, good job. I honestly wasn't expecting anyone to be inspired by my story. I was just providing some info about how I went about it in case it helps anyone else. Especially guys with a big, meaty freunulum. Stay safe!Hello everyone.
About 5 years ago i did my first frenulum tying. Very basic, like most of the people here in the forum did with a thread and needle. I was watching out for veins with a flashlight and was using icecubes against the pain plus a fishing-threat for the tying. I might have used too much force back then with the tie and I cut through the skin. But hey, the procedure was over very quickly. In like 2 days it was already separated. it was bleeding a bit but healed up very well. Sadly I haven't taken any pictures back then.
At that point i was able to free my foreskin for a good amount. I was pleased but wanted more. Shortly after i prepared for another tie. I went very deep in the fremulum, but in the process i became scared. The needle went under some "relatively bigger" veins. And because I already had some bleeding before, I didn't finish the tie. But then there was this needle in my frenulum... Temporarey I took an earring of mine. I always cleaned and desinfected. The hole healed and lateron I bought a real piercing. So actually i pierced myself that day...
However. now 5 years later. I decided to finish what I have started. The hole witch became my piercing healed very well, it became stretchy over the time and very confortable. But something inside me wanted to free my frenulum even more. When erected the frenulum was still pulling back my glans.
If I would just tie a knot in the middle i would have been left with leftover skin flaps. So i did two ties. Compleatly removing a part of the "skin bridge" that I created with my piercing.
Thete were some veins going throught, but the blood will find another way I guess...
Well. 4 days in I became inpatient. So I decided to cut through the knotted frenulum. I applied numbing cream and prepared a warm bath. I sterilized the frenum, my hands and the razorblade. I was shaking a little but then went for one clean cut. It stressed me out, because it was bleeding much more than expected. But still i went for the whole cut. It didn't hurt, but the bleeding was freaking me out a bit. I pressed with some toiletpaper on the cut and let it dry. the bleeding stopped and I was glad i did it. Then I prepared for the secound cut the next day after work. One cut was enough for one day.
It was bleeding even more after the second cut. I was concerned until the bleeding stopped. I had to apply pressure fore quiet some time, but also with the help of "blood stop cotton - calciumalginate" I was able to get control of the bleeding. Now the healing process begins and because i did two cuts it has quiet an amont to heal. But I am already liking the new look, cant wait for it to be fully healed.
I can just say: Don't be impatient. Tying and waiting is probabely the better solution. But i was concerned about the dead skinpart inbetween the ties, that the dead tissue might cause inflammations, because of this I went for the cut and now I hope for a good and clean healing process.
I want to thank you all in this forum to encourage and help eachother and new ones. It is very helpful to hear all your stories. Special thanks to @D_Andrei, his story encouraged me to finish my frenulum-story.
I will post some final pictures when everything is fully healed. As well as some before and after pictures for comparison.
I wish you all the best.

Nice work. Will be very interested to learn how you deal with that little nub of skin left on the shaft (the “tooth” as you describe it). Mine is like that too but I have left it there for now.As I promised here are the pictures after my serving set of ties fell. It's been 2 days since. I believe the scars are healing up nicely but I've learned my lesson and won't go for the third set until they are in better shape. Last time I was impatient with the serving set and I can feel there's some trauma.
At last my frenulum looks a little more normal even though I'm at the point where other guys do their first tie.. Slow and steady... I'm not sure how to go about the bottom section of skin that looks like a tooth now. Either another double tie parallel with the shaft or try the clamp and cut method ( I tried showing that in a rudimentary drawing). That area is not so critical. Any opinions?
As for the glans there is still some attached frenulum remaining and I believe a simple tie will finish up the job. Hope this helps other guys also. If you think about it there's 10 years of accumulated experience in this thread with different results and approaches, multiple physiological issues and situations. I would highly recommend tu any newcomers like me to read the whole thing. It's worth it. I'll be back!!![]()
Thanks! I haven't made up my mind yet about that leftover skin. At this point the issue is now more cosmetic than functional. Two option,:Nice work. Will be very interested to learn how you deal with that little nub of skin left on the shaft (the “tooth” as you describe it). Mine is like that too but I have left it there for now.
Great work! Looking forward to seeing how this works out for you.Guess who's back? It's been about 9 days since my last tie fell. It seems I healed pretty nicely so I decided to do something about my huge nub leftover skin whatever. As I previously mentioned I tried to go with the clamp technique. I used a hemostatic clamp but it didn't work out for me. It was too painful. So I took a surgical scalpel and cut 2 guiding notches at the extreme ends and did another double tie. Basically I went more or less with the drawing from my previous post. I didn't go as close as possible to the shaft but I still think maybe I went to deep with the needle. The ties cut outwards, from the hole to the knot. So if you go to deep with the needle it could cut in a circular o pattern. To me it looks good so far. I hope the results are up to expectations. @FrenBreve maybe my future results will help you take a decision. As you can see from the pictures my frenulum still is attached to the glans. I want to wait a few more days before doing anything else as it still feels a little traumatized. For all who want to try frenulum tying. Due to my job I'm still about 3 months away from having sex so I can afford all the time in the world. Don't hurry. Anyway... here are the pictures
