I get the donut effect too and it seems to permanently strech the skin. Any advice?

Supposedly using a silicone sleeve or a condom while pumping will reduce the donut. I found that putting water in the cylinder helps even things out for a more natural look. However as I get more flaccid, the donut comes back.
On the plus side, since I have been pumping, the donut has help restore some of my foreskin.

Everytime I pump I get the donut effect and like mushroomcap said I think it's helping to restore some forskin for me.

To avoid edema while pumping get a pump that has a gauge and stay within the 5-7hg range. Lots of good advice on safe routines are easily found with a bit of searching.

I agree with the above comment(s) about using a restrictor like a condom. If you're going for girth, be very patient and lower your suction (down to 5" etc.) so that your gains are more even throughout the penis.
If you want to use the condom technique, cut off the tip and slip about 1-2" onto your foreskin, fold id back on itself 2x and then cut off the remainder. It seems wasteful but it works (after some practice).
Really the best practices are (a) time, (b) patience, and (c) the correct cylinder. If you're going for length, you need a thinner cylinder and a LOT of patience. If the cylinder volume is too great for your current penis displacement, you'll see a lot of edema and not in regular patterns, often random, but especially in the foreskin since it's so stretchy.
(sorry for the long reply!)
