Circumcised men may soon be able to regrow their foreskin

Article here. Excerpt:

'Until now, circumcision has been an irreversible operation, often conducted on boys who are too young to consent to the removal of their foreskin.

But as the practice - which dates back thousands of years - has become more controversial over recent decades, a US organisation is developing procedures which could undo the operation in men who are unhappy with its results.

Foregen, a not for profit group which was founded to “research and implement regenerative medical therapies for circumcised males”, recently announced a Kickstarter campaign to fund further studies of foreskin regrowth.

“In the short term, we hope to fully regenerate human foreskins,” reads a statement on Foregen's website, a goal it claims will require $3m worth of funding over three years. “Once we have accomplished that, our goal is to advance onto human clinical trials as soon as it is safe to do so.”'
