I always loved my penis. In fact, I thought it looked really good uncut. And I even thought most other uncut guys looked good (I still do; I think uncut is natural and very appealing). Every partner I ever had told me that my uncut penis was attractive and I always had good sexual experiences with it; no complaints at all. So I guess I had no pressing reasons to change my appearance. Except that...in the back of mind mind, ever since I could remember, I always knew that I wanted to be cut. I just did.
It seemed like no matter what compliments I was told by other people about my own uncut penis, uncut just never felt right on me. I don't really know how else to explain it. I went through phases in my life where I accepted that I was uncut and I tried to embrace it, but eventually that feeling would pass and I just didn't feel like it suited me. I just never felt 100% comfortable in my skin (pun intended). But seriously, that's how I felt.
So finally, I made the choice to get cut in March of 2014 (about 9 months ago). All I can say is that it was one of the best decision I've made for myself (truly). Not because cut is "better" than uncut (although I truly do enjoy it sooo much better, hah), but because I feel like my penis suits me now. It's how I always felt it should look and feel. For me is was a completely personal decision and a personal experience. I don't regret being uncut. But I couldn't be happier cut.
Some other details:
- I'm in my 20's.
- I was very careful about finding a specialist/surgeon who I trusted and felt took all of my requests seriously. I wanted to make sure I got the results I was looking for (which I completely did). I would suggest anyone considering this process do the same thing. Do not settle and make sure you do your research.
- I got a relatively high cut and my frenulum was cut as well (see pictures below).
- The main healing process took about a month for things to feel completely normal for me. I did not find the experience to be painful at all; in fact, I was awake for the procedure and even had lunch with a friend and flew on an airplane the same day. I went back to work the day after the procedure (no issues at all). I did take some pain meds at night for comfort, but truly, it was very minimal and I did not rely on medication at all.
- As mentioned, I had the procedure done in March so it's been about 9 months (I personally think the scar looks good, but let me know your thoughts...?). I think the scar will continue to blend-in and fade with the coloring of my skin. But even if it doesn't, I'm comfortable with the way it looks even at 9 months.
