I have been at this for some time hoping to be able to overcome this issue.
I can't "bury the white lines" on restorex. So I feel like I'm not pulling hard enough. At least not for any long time. My penis adapts almost immediately. Or it is just too much tension and hurts too much. If I have hard flaccid or whatever, it just hurts too much. There is no way to predict in what state my dick will be either. Adding heat beforehand doesn't always loosen things.
Also, when counterbending I can't get past the 2nd stage. Sometimes can get to 3rd, but it is extremely painful.
Should I just pull harder or just chuck this thing in the trash and go back to penimaster or something?
Like I said I have been at this a long time. Not like a few weeks, a long ass time.
I'm having identical issues as you are using the RestoreX, also suffer hard flaccid. Hopefully, there are some good answers.
Samsung,
How long is a long time? It took me about 9 months before I found it to be marginally comfortable and at times I still have difficulty getting to the 3rd position.

I started restorex probably about 1.2 years ago. Did for maybe a month. Then I tried penimaster. For maybe a few months. Then started xiaflex, and went back to restorex for last 3 rounds. So maybe have been doing restorex 6 months now? But not consistently because of on and off times with the xiaflex, etc. Each time was wait 2 weeks after the shot, do for 4 weeks. But now last round ended 2 months ago, have been doing straight since then. Maybe stopped a few days in between due to pain.
samsung,
I would tell you to not worry about the third position, you'll know when the time it right. I just sent a pm to another member and told him the key thing to RestoreX is patience, and that comes from a guy who has very little. I've read it on here over and over, "it's a marathon, not a sprint". I hope it works for you. I saw very little difference between my third and fourth rounds and most of my improvement came after the fourth round in combination with RestoreX.
Good Luck!
Samsung,
I use the Restorex and can bury the white lines, but I struggled with this early on. After a couple months of an hour every single day it became easier. I should mention, I made the recommended adjustments to the device which also may have helped. When counter bending, I put a little piece of toilet paper between my dick and the device to make it glide so it's not painful. I found that I have pain if I don't "release" the skin at the base of the device because instead of stretching the penis, the tension is applied to the skin. Which is not only painful, but ineffective. You may have watched them already, but there are a few good videos created by the doctor who created the device containing tips and common mistakes.
I am able to bury the lines now. I think it is more a case of my dick being inconsistently flexible. Just some days it is tighter than others. As for the counter bending position I still can't get to 3 and 4. Sometimes 3, but it hurts. And yes, thank you, I do pull the skin out at the base. I pull up my ball sack skin just a little through the opening because if you don't it will pull on the skin and not the shaft. Hard to explain what I'm saying unless by video. I also pull my foreskin down and make sure none is clamped at the head because it will also pull there. You want all the tension just on the shaft.
Have you guys seen much results from the Restorex?
I'm keen to purchase one just waiting for the exchange rate to go down.

I've had some improvement in curvature but it's hard to say if it's from Restorex, supplements or my first round of xiaflex. Would I purchase it again? Absolutely! I've spent $500 on far worse things.

I completely understand where you are coming from with positions 3 and 4. I can do 3 without a problem, but 4 depends on the day... some days I can and some days it's like my dick is more stiff and won't bend that far (not without pain anyway). Because of my schedule, I do my two 30 minute sessions back to back with a few minute break in between. I do 15 minutes without bend, 15 minutes in position 3, break for blood flow, 15 minutes position 3, 15 minutes position 4. If I can't comfortably do position 4, I'll revert back to position 3 but I'll increase the tension as much as possible without causing pain. I too pull up my sack up through the device, but it's caused me to pinch my skin a couple times... and that is BRUTAL.
To answer JJ-I haven't had any reduction in curvature with restorex but it has helped with turtling. The small length gain I think is from penimaster and supplements. I haven't had any improvements lately but I'll keep tugging on it.
Hey JJ21: i think somebody should create a thread on "all things restorex" and index that... idk 8)
Thanks guys - if you haven't already - you should try heating your penis up before using the device - it might help with the stretching. I know I do this before VED and it does make a difference.
I wish someone would come up with a less expensive version of restorex. In Australia it will cost me $1000 to purchase it shipped over inlcuding currency conversion! I already have to pay $200 a month for 28 pills of Cialis 5mg (We don't have Generic Cialis here).
JJ
I'm with you on this JJ. What you can do is kind of save money slowly so that way even though is a lot of money, it would be as bad. I'm also on cialis original, paying 140$ cad at the pharmacy... it's killing me :( stay strong man!
Pfract - I think they have generic Cialis available in the states - is it not available in Canada?
I'm confused why it isn't available worldwide.
Have you found the Cialis daily helping ? A combination of PEntox and Cialis daily made significant improvement to my ED however due to cost I have had to cut down on the Cialis.
jj: they do, but costs like 10 dollars less i think? it's not even funny. At this point, i don't know if i should just split the 5mg pill in half... I never got around to try both at the same time, even more so without a urologist to prescribe me the medication.
Cialis definitely gives me better erections. I had the chance to try it out with a new partner yesterday, and she said it felt hard for her. Like she only felt once me going a bit soft. I started freaking out about hurting myself again... :(
Pfract - I'm glad youve been able to start a new sex life again. I had that problem too where I kept worrying about getting injured again during sex.
Try not to think about it getting injured just but be precautious at the same time. Thinking too much will stop you from enjoying the ride (pun intended).
I assume your situation is improving? Mine is as well very very slowly.
JJ
Hi jj21 It is expensive to us Aussies but after a few months Restorex has helped a bit with curvature & I am still in active stage so improving instead of getting worse is good . Use Parsl , I used a lady on Parcl & cheaper than the others , who was highly rated called shopnship . She had shipped them to several countries including Aus & labels them penile clamps , then there is no GST or duty .
JP - thank you for your advice. I'm hopeful after hearing you've had some improvement.
May I ask how much did you pay in total ?
