# ''An end to tight and painful [[erection]]s''.  Increasing the quantity of skin results in longer skin and less tension when the penis is erect.

# ''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. This provides for more enjoyable intercourse for both partners and avoids problems with vaginal dryness.<ref name="warren1994">{{REFjournal

# ''Moist glans penis'': A restored foreskin keeps the glans penis moist and oily by [[transudation]] in the same manner as a natural foreskin.
# ''Moist glans penis'': A restored foreskin keeps the [[glans penis]] moist and oily by [[transudation]] in the same manner as a natural [[foreskin]].
# ''Feeling whole'': The [[circumcision scar]] has turned under the restored foreskin and is invisible. The presence of the restored foreskin causes one to look and feel whole, complete, and normal.
# ''Appearing and Feeling whole'': The [[circumcision scar]] has turned under the restored foreskin and is invisible. The presence of the restored foreskin causes one to look and feel [[intact]], whole, complete, and normal.
# ''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 sensation.

# ''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 action| 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.
