TOPIC: Length loss after adult circumcision?

Hello, I‘ve been considering adult Circumcision lately but I heard rather often that you lose length in the process. I assumed it was a matter of Erection quality. If not where does the shrinkage come from?

If too much skin is removed, this can affect the length. Normally this isn't anything to worry about.

Ok, thanks I guess it‘s going with the right practitioner what makes the difference?

Both patients in this „After going through PMMA hell in 2023 Im heading to avanti first week of Dec“ thread report length loss after Circumcision

I lost length went from 6.2 to 5 if you google it others have as well

As someone who has always been cut (circumcised) since birth, I find this area a bit confusing. Is there a chance that when measuring a unit with the foreskin closed (encapsulating the glans and extending forward) that this additional length is measured? If this is the case, it's a useless measurement in my opinion.

I just don't see how the act of circumcision in adulthood (when your penis is fully developed) would impact length, especially to the extent that losses are significant.

Any ideas how this would happen, please do share. Again, being circumcised all my life, I have a hard time imagining how anyone loses any "functional length" by the act of circumcision. For all that I know about penis enlargement, there is much I still have to learn.

Perhaps @Dr_JChang could elaborate, he's a Physician with Pollock Clinics (Canada) who specializes not only in girth enhancement, but Adult Circumcisions.

I spend the last days researching but didn’t really find much. The only thing I could find was

„ The most common cause of penile shortening after circumcision is related to the removal of the excessive foreskin, commonly referred to as “tight circumcision“. Lack of extra skin that occurs in some men with poorly compliant skin leads to a lack of penile shaft expansion with an erection.“

@uncuthero Did you have a tight circumcision? I guess it depends on the practitioner mainly
