What Is The Circumcision Procedure Like?
Adult circumcision is a straightforward surgery that typically does not require an overnight stay.
Before the procedure, you will get either local or general anaesthesia to numb the area and minimise discomfort. The choice of anaesthesia depends on the patient's preference, the surgeon's recommendation, and the complexity of the circumcision.
Once the anaesthesia takes effect, the urologist surgeon will carefully separate the foreskin from the head (glans) of the penis. Once this is done, any bleeding vessels are cauterised or stitched. Depending on the method, the urologist surgeon may close the wound with dissolvable stitches or leave it open to healing naturally.
