The RestoreX™ is patented, guaranteeing the exclusivity of its dual traction force technology. It is manufactured in the United States by PathRight Medical, located in Orem, Utah.
RestoreX™ was invented by Dr. Landon Trost, an American urologist specializing in Peyronie's disease and author of numerous studies and clinical guidelines regarding this condition. He has no professional or financial ties to PathRight Medical, and his clinical publications concerning Peyronie's disease or RestoreX™ have all been conducted according to the ethical and scientific procedures defined by the AUA (American Urological Association).
The axial traction force is between 2.5 and 3 kg, and the force on the counter-curvature is between 4.5 and 5 kg. The power of these traction forces is the primary reason for the effectiveness of RestoreX™ and is unmatched by other traction therapy devices. To prevent the penis from slipping during traction, the glans is clamped onto a very wide base, securely anchoring it and distributing the pressure over a large contact area to minimize pain.
RestoreX™ is effective in correcting penile curvature but also in treating hourglass-shaped penises.
RestoreX™ is the only treatment that has shown tangible results regarding penis length recovery 1b, 2b.
The RestoreX™ has CE marking, which classifies it as a genuine Medical Device.

M.J. Ziegelmann & al. - 2019: Outcomes of a Novel Penile Traction Device in Men with Peyronie's Disease: A Randomized, Single-Blind, Controlled Trial
110 patients, mean age 58 years, Peyronie's disease history: 49 months, mean curvature 59.3 degrees.
Four groups: one control group (number = 27) and three RestoreX™ groups with daily usage sessions: group 1 (number = 28) → 30-minute session, group 2 (number = 28) → 60-minute session, group 3 (number = 27) → 90-minute session. RestoreX usage time is divided equally (50/50) between axial traction and counter-curvature.
A. Results at 3 months, average usage of 47 minutes/day
- A 17.2° reduction in curvature, or 28%, was observed in 77% of patients who responded to treatment (control group).
= +1.3°). Among these 77%, or about 4 out of 5 men, who observed a reduction in curvature, 28% of them achieved a reduction in curvature of 20° and for 48% of these 77%, the reduction in curvature was greater than 20°. - Penis length recovery : +1.6cm or +11% for 94% of patients who responded to treatment
(control group = +0.3cm). - Improvement in erectile function according to the IIEF score of 4.3 (control group = 0.7).
- 47% of patients could not have sexual intercourse with their partner due to insufficient penile tumescence: at the end of the 12 weeks of treatment, 80% of these reported being able to penetrate their partner.
- No adverse effects were observed (bruises, petechiae, etc.)
- 100% of patients who had previously tried another traction therapy device reported preferring RestoreX™.
B. 2 additional phases of the clinical study at 6 (n=64) and 9 (n=63) months of follow-up, daily use
average of 31 minutes/day
- 63% of patients reported improvements in curvature and length (+0.5 cm).
- The score on the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF) questionnaire was also increased.
- 84% of patients continued to use RestoreX™ after 9 months.
The average curvature observed in this study was 59.3°, which classifies this value as almost severe (> 60°). The average curvature, reported by clinical studies, is generally between 30° And 50°.
The average duration of Peyronie's disease is 49 months This implies an exponential hardening over time of the fibrotic plaque as well as an increasing retraction of the tunica albuginea.
These two very demanding criteria represent a real challenge for RestoreX™.
23% Some patients did not experience any improvement. We tried to understand why these patients were not responding, and the explanations varied: some were not using the device correctly, others were not using it at all, and still others were probably doing everything right but were not getting a response. We do not know why this last group did not respond.
The reduction in curvature at 3 months is 17.2°, either 28% This represents a considerable improvement. Degrees are an absolute way to measure angulation, while percentage is a relative value that varies according to the degree of curvature.
For example, if a person has a curvature of 100° which will be reduced by 40° With RestoreX™, she will notice an improvement in 60° and also 60%. But, if another person whose curvature is 40° records, as in the clinical study, an improvement in 20°, she will recognize an improvement in 50% compared to the original curvature.
