    Sorry, I read “glans” instead of “glands” - my understanding is that the foreskin is made up of inner and outter skin (the inner skin is actually mucosa, a wet tissue like the inside of your cheek). Outter skin from the start of your shaft to your circumcision scar line, then inner skin (mucosa), then your glans.

    Mitosis (skin growth via tension) works on inner and outter skin, so you should end up with a normal amount of sebaceous glands from restoring. Mitosis results in new nerves, blood vessels, and I would assume new sebaceous glands (but I haven’t checked for sure).
