Partial Circumcision

Hello,

I have a question about a partial circumcision. I am 22 years old and not circumcised. Unfortunately, I have an excess amount of foreskin and unable to retract the foreskin down my glans at all when erect.

All I want is a little bit of foreskin cut off at the tip of my penis, so that there is still skin covering my penis when flaccid. It seems impossible to find a urologist that is willing to do this as they always state their opinion of how bad it will look.

There's no going back with a full circumcision and I don't want to make a mistake that I can't fix.

I knew 2 guys who had redundant foreskins, and they too hated them.  I know of kids who got a minimal circ, a little off the end of the foreskin, and those turned out fine, including 2 sons and a nephew.  Also I knew 3 guys in school who had partials that looked like pigs in a blanket, and that actually looked good.  Depending on how wide the extra foreskin is, it might be possible to get the result you want.  Otherwise a partial might be a reasonable compromise for you, but be sure to keep the frenulum to hold it all in place.  I hope you found a doc who could offer you a result that would help, but surely no doc could promise an exact look or result.  A very long excess foreskin didn't look like a practical thing to me, and I hope you can or did get a foreskin reduction or minimal circ and have a better experience with your tool now.

I forgot to add, is there anyone who knows of anyone who has had just some of the foreskin at the end taken off and didn't have to have a full circumcision?
