Hi guys, I will get circumcised soon and I'm still hesitant about whst style of circumcision I'll be having... I am tempted by the full circumcision as I like the esthetic look and would definitevely fix my phimosis problem, but am scared of the loss of sensitivity in sexual intercourse and masturbation issues due to not having any foreskin left!
Otherwise, I would go for "loose and high or low" cut for having some skin slack for masturbation
What do you think? Thanks 🙃

There is method called proximal circ. So they start at the base of your shaft and make an incision all around. Then they move up the shaft and make another incision all around, then pull back the shaft skin to the base and stitch together. There are no stitches near the head, no scar line up front, all the “inner” foreskin is preserved. The head will be sensitive from it’s new exposure.
This method is almost unknown outside of Japan where it was developed.
It is totally unsuitable in cases of phimosis as the tight tip simply becomes repositioned somewhere along the shaft and compresses it there, possibly also affecting the urethra (piss tube).
If I had to be circumcised, I'd want it to be very loose, to leave as much tissue as possible.
If you have phimosis, did you already try stretching and/or steroid creams though? Those work for a lot of men. If surgery is required, you could also try preputioplasty or even a dorsal slit.
If you don't have phimosis, but just a long foreskin, then you could try searching for "cosmetic circumcision eid" for a different kind of circumcision, which would preserve your foreskin, but still enable it to retract:
I say let go looser, u can always take more off later u can’t put any back. I had the same concern with sensitivity and u will get used to the feeling of no longer having a foreskin. And any concerns u have be adamant about them, but I would recommend asking where the scar line will be. Cause when I got mine a year ago my surgeon told me there was only one way. And it looks like he just cut out the inner mucous and stitched it literally 2mm below the gland and it looks horrible. Ironically I got the procedure for cosmetic reasons, but he never told me there were different styles. Any ways best luck
