Line 9:

Ever since the days of classical antiquity, methods of restoring the [[foreskin]] after circumcision, known as [[epispasm]], have been known.

They are based on the ability of the human [[skin]] to adapt to the needs of the body. In daily life it can be easily observed on the abdominal [[skin]], which adapts to the abdomen's circumference according to gain or loss of weight. If [[skin]] is subjected to tension over a period of time, the [[skin]] cells are stimulated to increase in number. This also holds true for the ~~shaft~~ [[skin]] of the [[penis]].

Depending on the circumcision style and individual cutaneous factors, it can take months or even years for the [[skin]] to cover the [[Glans penis|glans]] fully. There are single reports of growth of up to 5mm a month with intensive restoring, but reliable studies on this are not available.

=== Manual stretching ===

If there is not enough reserve [[skin]] available to apply a restoration device, this has first to be created by stretching the ~~shaft~~ [[skin]]. To do this, it is pulled with one hand at the base of the [[penis]] towards the body, and with the other hand below the [[Glans penis|glans]] towards the tip. The [[skin]] in between is thus stretched and stimulated to grow. This procedure has to repeated several times a day for about 10 to 15 minutes.
