currently unavailable (I'm working out some kinks in the manufacturing of the
AFBs) Artificial Frenar Band (AFB) Individuals
restoring their foreskins have different "goals," however most Restores strive to attain some amount of
coverage that mimics that of the "intact" (click here to access an external
link to pictures of an intact foreskin). "Intact"
coverage, however, is quite variable and any casual review of various online
sources will demonstrate that all intact foreskins are not created equal. Although
there is great variety in the amount of coverage an intact male enjoys, most Restorers have "coverage while
flaccid" as a minimum goal, while other more dedicated individuals might
have "coverage while erect" in their cross hairs. Just
as with the intact foreskin, there is also a range in the amount of reliable
coverage a Restorer can achieve, as
well as in the amount of "tapering" they will ultimately
attain. Even when a Restorer has grown more than enough
skin to create a nice "taper" and perhaps enough for coverage when
erect, because of the loss of the ridged band (also called the frenar band),
a restored foreskin retracts a bit more frequently than a natural intact
foreskin. Beyond
acting to keep the foreskin closed around the tip of the glans when the penis
is flaccid and, often, even when erect, the ridged band (or frenar band) also
plays a key role in sexual arousal.
This role stems from the presence of numerous nerve endings embedded
in the frenar band area as well as from the natural retention, around the
glans, of "Cowper's fluid" (precum) which is released during sexual
stimulation. The retention of this
natural lubricant, in conjunction with the nerve endings associated with the
frenar band add to the intact male's sexual experience. Although
it is true that the Restorer can
never regenerate the proper tissue and lost nerve endings to recreate a
functioning frenar band, it is possible to at least recreate the look and
some functionality of a frenar band from a restored foreskin. After
numerous attempts (with limited success) to fashion an Artificial Frenar Band
(AFB) using Tegaderm, I have recently developed a system to create AFBs using
medical-grade silicone sheathing (shown below). Artificial Frenar Bands (AFBs) >>> Now sold as a set of 10 (not 6 as shown
below) <<<
AFBs
are narrow rings (band width = ~0.1 inch; ~3.2 mm) of adhesive backed
silicone that come in two diameters (band diameter = ~ 3/4 and 1 inch; ~28.5
and ~23 mm); they are sold in sets of 10 (5 AFBs of two different sizes; the
above picture shows a set of 6 - the dots in the picture delineate outer and
inner diameters for each of the 6 bands - an even smaller band can also be
seen within the center, though I do not think this smaller band has any
practical use). When
applied to the tip of the foreskin (at ~POE), the AFB serves to: - keep the foreskin closed over
the flaccid penis* - keep the foreskin closed over
the erect penis* - help maintain the foreskin in a
more natural state and - retain "precum" around
the glans during foreplay (yes, the AFR can be worn
during intercourse!) *
this however can only happen if the Restorer
already has an adequate amount of skin If
you are interested in seeing the AFB in use by a fellow Restorer, please refer to the "The
Artificial Frenar Band (AFB) in use." If
you would like to see how the AFB is applied, please refer to "Putting on the Artificial Frenar Band (AFB)."

you would like to find out how you can purchase a set of AFBs, please refer
