Question
Answer
 
Can I wear the DTR with any type of clothing I have worn my DTR in shorts, jeans, khakis, just about any kind of clothing. I did not use any very tightfitting pants when using the DTR for obvious reasons.  
Can the DTR be made smaller No, the DTR comes in one size and has fit 99.9% of everyone who's uses it.  
How long should I wear the DTR I have tried many routines and found that 5 to 6 hours daily on higher tensions have yielded me the best results. Lower tensions would require more time wearing the device per day.  
Is there a break in period with the DTR Yes, the DTR's grippers will break in and become a little softer. This takes between 50 and 100 hours of use.
(5 to 10 days)

 
How much tension is enough

This picture will show you what I look for on my skin. I looked for small stress lines in the skin this is a close-up of a section of skin to show you what I am talking about. The skin shown here is not loose this skin is actually being stretched with my fingers so you can see the detail.

After using the DTR for 2 to 3 hours on higher tension it would yield these stress marks , these lines would disappear after 24 to 48 hours if I did not use the device.



Sometimes my skin turns different colors while using a device. This happens quite often when I'm restoring. My skin would turn reddish purple and even be a little cool to the touch. When this happened I would just remove my DTR and within a minute it would be back to normal. I do not recommend using the DTR while sleeping since you cannot monitor your skin to know you need to take off the device.
