2. ''Coverage of the glans'': this is beneficial because (a) it protects the glans from uncomfortably rubbing up against things, and (b) by keeping the glans moist and protected, it leads to dekeratinization, which subsequently increases sensitivity.
2. ''Gliding mechanism'': the [[gliding action]] is beneficial because it facilitates [[masturbation]] and sex by reducing friction and providing a stimulating sheath that pleasurably slips back and forth over the [[glans]], thereby decreasing the need for artificial lubrication. The motion of the penile skin by the gliding action stimulates the nerves in the skin which are sensitive to motion and stretching.
3. ''Feeling whole'': The presence of the restored foreskin causes one to look and feel whole, complete, and normal.

5. ''More sensation'': It is true that non-surgical foreskin restoration cannot restore the [[ridged band]] or the [[frenulum]], but a restored foreskin does have some nerves in it. Those nerves are stimulated by the gliding of the foreskin, so it is quite pleasurable to have a restored foreskin.  Some men who were circumcised as adults and subsequently restored have estimated that they got back about 80 percent of what they had lost in sensation.
 
6. ''Increased comfort'': The head of one's [[penis]] is protected by [[foreskin]] as nature intended.
