I'm a doctor and am circumcised myself. But I see the REAL devastating sexual consequences of this mutilating procedure every day. Here's what no one tells you... https://t.co/rcr0kFfwqt
@DailyMail Thank you for bringing much-need attention to this often overlooked issue. Ameliorated the harm caused by circumcision is why Foregen exists.
@NYMag It isn't so much that these men "hate" their penises, but rather they are justifiably upset it was partially removed without a valid medical reason, and without their consent. Pursuing restoration is an expression of care, not contempt.

Our redesigned website is live, and Foregen presented at the 2026 Intact Global Conference. Catch up on last month's progress and what's coming next. https://t.co/MvVyZ0ZADL
@exhale603156241@NYMag The dissertation was background, not the argument. Peripheral nerve repair is in clinical use today (allografts, conduits). The problem we are currently working on is the full sensory restoration of densely innervated tissue.
Our work is featured in @NYMag this week. The demand for foreskin restoration is very real. That's why we're developing a regenerative medicine solution to biologically restore the foreskin's form, function, and sensation.
As circumcision rates in the United States reach an all-time low, some men who hate their snipped penises are going to great lengths to re-create foreskin. Most try manually stretching their skin, while others are turning to experimental surgery. https://t.co/MvWnuhoSGB
Reinnervation at this scale is one of the hardest problems in regenerative medicine. That's why it warrants more than mere dismissal. The premise being tested is whether ECM scaffolds that preserve corpuscle architecture can guide axon regrowth into functional sensory tissue. https://t.co/nhz3lyTXFk
@Kaizerrev The demand for foreskin restoration is very real. That's why we're developing a regenerative medicine solution to #BringBackTheForeskin completely.
@TheCut Thank you for the coverage! There is a very real demand for foreskin restoration, which is why we exist: to pursue a novel regenerative medicine approach for men to reclaim their agency and their intact bodies.
Over the past few years, doctors and scientists have been quietly tiptoeing into the field of foreskin-restoration surgery, drawn by growing demand, the proliferation of gender-affirmation care (which has helped surgeons hone their skill in reshaping genitals), and circumcision itself falling out of favor. In the United States, circumcision reached its zenith in the mid-1960s, when an estimated 80 percent of males had their foreskins cut off. In 2022 — the most recent year for which data is available — only 49 percent of male infants were circumcised.
That some physicians are now helping to reverse a procedure their peers long touted as a boon for patients’ health is raising fresh tensions over the merits of circumcision and emboldening men to challenge whether the procedure’s toll is greater than doctors have typically recognized. Though the majority of people still opt to take matters into their own hands, procedures like Floyd’s — and the growing body of research into the mechanics and merits of uncircumcision — suggest professional help is finally arriving.
In a new feature for The Cut, @bbosker introduces us to foreskin-restoration surgery, the men seeking it out, and the other methods of circumcision reversal they’ve tried: https://t.co/wpFik3lGrr

@trappychan You're noticing something real. Protecting the glans is one of the foreskin's core functions, and circumcision removes it. There are many other benefits of having a foreskin. That's why we're developing a regenerative medicine technique to fully restore it.
