Every cut is different, the lucky ones are left with decent amounts of outer and inner foreskin, the others are left with a numb piece of flesh hanging from the body and some have their scrotum skin pulled up to the shaft, which sucks.
Luckily foreskin restoration is a thing, allegedly you can restore your foreskin (no ridgid band nor frenulum) by stretching the skin gently, it induces mitosis and grows. It's supposedly very similiar to an uncut foreskin but still not as good. Downside is, it can take several years, but some sensitivity, a shining glans and such comes back before you're finished. You can be skeptical of it, but I find reddit foreskin restoration subreddit to be quite helpful and good. Foregen, one of the biggest companies trying to restore a whole foreskin stands behind the idea that foreskin=more sensitivity.
In general, I don't understand why such an old ritual/tradition still lives on.
What are the benefits to foreskin exactly? Research shows the sex isn't any better. Botched circumcisions are incredibly rare in industrialized first-world countries.
How did they research that? "Hey, Jerry. Put on your foreskin and masturbate, take it off and try masturbating without it. How does it feel, Jerry? xd" What I'm saying is mostly based large amounts of self-reports from men. I started searching it up when I realised that masturbating feels like rubbing my palm. Seems like the vast majority of people with this problem are, waddaya know, circumcised. Regarding foreskin restoration, there's science behind it, although it's not really recognized. It's one of those things you should be skeptic about but from what I've gathered, and I'll also try it myself, it should work. Check out reddit/r/foreskin_restoration
