As long as its strong enough to pull tight without breaking it doesn't matter. I am using polyester and cotton mix thread, by the time you've threaded the needle it automatically doubles the strength. Just make sure you keep it tight as you tie the knot!ittast;736713 said:Has anyone tried using thin thread? the one used on buttons, would it work or is it too thin?
Cotto03;737128 said:Hey has anyone had any success with the tying method after a frenuloplasty that didn't relieve enough slack, is that even possible? My frenulum was released by a urologist and kind of puckered at a lower point on the glands and stitched up. Not happy with the restriction this has caused as I can't retract fully smooth. Hoping the tiying method will help relive the rest. Had the surgery 4 weeks ago, but I'm not sure if I should wait a few months for it to completely heal or to have a go soon? I am really wanting a full smooth retraction. Can post some pics tomorrow. Anyone been in a similar situation? Any help would be great thanks.
Just another thing to aid your recovery, try gently massaging pure coconut oil into the scar which will keep things supple alternating days with vaseline. Something I am still using with great success. Again, its something I've done, not saying you have to. Good luck again with yours and don't forget to check in with the forum with an update (and maybe pics?).Cotto03;737227 said:Hey thanks MrJ. It's kind of dawned on my how long this surgery will take to heal fully and I'm ok with it. I would rather wait to see what it looks like healed with the skin nice and soft and smooth before trying the tying method. It's still really tender all over 4 weeks post op and I have tried it out and the release the urologist gave me have given me instant improvements and feels great. Its definitely not the end point where I want to be, but I think if I just let my body heal it and have the main scar settle down I will be in a better position to make tying decisions. It's so raw and tender right now. Will review in a few months once it starts to take shape I think. Thanks for your help.
Cotto03;737322 said:Hey MrJ
I have added some photos as requested.
Do you think some tying (in the future) would be possible just under the glands where it forms at that point, for a full release?

Hi krest509, if it helps, look at the photo on page 52 of this forum thread about half way down. Also look at some of the other igmur postings to get an idea of where the other lads have started. Good luck.krest509;737458 said:I'm ready to do this but I'm still having trouble with where and hoe to tie and cut mine
I've attached picture already if anyone wants to try guiding me I'm ready
krest509;737822 said:Thanks mate, can you or anyone tell me all the product I will need

krest509;738088 said:Here's my issue .. I really want to do one cut but I'm not even sure how to cut or where to tie this thing man

Send me pm please
max999;738244 said:There was an image about this somewhere in this thread, but I didn't found it at the moment.
Your pics are not good for showing where to tie, please try to post a pic like this with frenulum in evidence: http://tip10.info/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/6ece7d9e0173a2136f08365de714c902.jpg
i don't think this is still active, sorry.
But you can see some pics browsing this thread.
krest509;738753 said:maybe you can give me better precision
i don't mind one cut or one tie to rid of it..
thanks
Probably they have all except for the sutures. If you don't want to buy them online, you can use the "stretch magic" thread, if you look in the first pages you'll find the proper diameter (i don't remember it, but usually, less diameter is better)krest509;739152 said:Can I buy the products I need locally?
I have Joanne craft store, walmart, Walgreens next to me?
yes, but if you see that is too much skin, you can pierce a little higher to do a smaller tiekrest509;739152 said:So pierce where the blue to the other side and side then tie it at the top where the red at?
yes, good idea, it's better to let it heal completely before doing anythingNightday;740369 said:Thanks for the info. Currently i'm letting the wound heal and then i want to start tying. I'll probably start searching for the items i need to perform this.
Usually it's better to do two ties and two holes: do the first tie, then wait the detach of the frenulum (usually it takes from 4 to 12 days), let it heal and then do another tie. But in your case the frenulum is not so short, maybe you can cut all with one single tie.Nightday;740369 said:If i want to remove the frenulum completly, is it the best idea to make two ties with two holes or one hole with two ties to the beginning of the corona and one to the start of the frenulum?
lankylad88;740550 said:Hi guys. great thread. I'm gonna do this to my fren too. If it can be freed from the glans it will completely transform it! I can't wait.
I've put a few photos here:

One pic shows normal state, the next I've pulled down and there's barely are movement.
Can someone suggest tie location ?

just pulled the trigger with my first tie
any idea for next days aftercare? just soak in warm water 4 times a day?thanks
I used polyester/cotton thread when I did mine with no problems at all. The same sort of thread used for sewing. Ask if you want any more info. I've completed mine and have had no problems at all. Really pleased with the results too!lankylad88;740640 said:Thanks Brahmanion, I'll give that a go and post an update. I'm still looking for ideal thread to tie with in UK.

MrJ;740817 said:gg82,
4 times a day is a bit excessive, 3 should be enough. First thing after getting up, wash with plain soap, reapply antiseptic cream. Repeat middle of your day, and finally make this job the last thing you do before going to bed. Pull back your foreskin as far as you can without too much pain when peeing too. Erections help as they make the skin tight around the cord which helps the cutting action. Always put antiseptic cream on the site as this will keep everything clean while the cord cuts through. Don't be afraid to put another tie in using the same hole to make the original tie tighter therefore speeding up the process. Hope this helps, good luck!
So, it sounds like you are cutting your frenulum out altogether, whereas mine was detached from the shaft (by tying) and has healed into the foreskin. Would be good to see your progress on this forum if you can post some pics? Take care, and keep it clean!gg82;740843 said:Alright thanks man
I did 2 ties , spaced by about 1cm . The portion of frenulum among them is a bit swollen but doesn't hurt.
Hope they cut through during the next days without complications.

krest509;741306 said:Ok
Today is the day got everything that I need
Will keep posted
I'm using stretch magic
Looks great to me! You just need to be patient now. Good luck and don't forget to report back. By the way, ELMA numbing cream is brilliant for this job if you have to make further ties.krest509;741331 said:Can someone tell me if I did this right. .or I should have tie more skin?
