What is
Adult Circumcision?

Adult circumcision is a surgical procedure that involves the removal of the foreskin from the penis. The entire procedure is typically completed within an hour. It is performed using local or general anesthesia, depending on individual needs and the surgeon’s recommendation.

Initial Consultation

Preparation for adult circumcision begins with a thorough consultation, where medical history, current health status, and reasons for seeking the procedure are reviewed.

Preoperative instructions may involve temporary adjustments to medications, hygiene practices, and avoidance of certain activities before surgery. Our doctor provides detailed guidance to ensure patients are fully informed and medically ready for the procedure.

How Is It Done?

Anesthesia

Adult circumcision is performed under either local anesthesia or general anesthesia, depending on the patient’s health, preferences, and the surgeon’s recommendation. Local anesthesia numbs only the area being treated, while general anesthesia induces complete unconsciousness for the duration of the surgery.

Surgical Removal of the Foreskin

The procedure involves the surgical removal of the foreskin covering the tip of the penis. Our surgeon carefully separates the foreskin from the underlying skin before removing it in a controlled manner. Precision is key to preserving function and ensuring a smooth contour.

Final Steps

Once the foreskin is removed and the incision site is closed, the area is cleaned and dressed. Protective bandaging helps reduce friction and supports initial healing during the immediate post-operative period.

Recovery After Adult Circumcision

Recovery after adult circumcision typically involves a period of rest to support proper healing and minimize discomfort. The area may remain sensitive for several days, especially when moving or coming into contact with clothing.

Most men return to non-strenuous work within a few days. However, it is essential to avoid vigorous activity during the early stages. Full healing usually takes about 2–3 weeks, with sexual intercourse generally safe to resume after 4–6 weeks, once the tissue has fully recovered.

Aftercare Recommendations

Proper aftercare is essential for comfortable healing and optimal results after adult circumcision.

Wound Care and Hygiene

Keep the surgical area clean and dry during the initial healing period. Dr. Solomon may recommend gentle cleaning with mild soap and water after the first 24-48 hours. Pat the area dry carefully – do not rub. Avoid soaking the wound in baths, pools, or hot tubs until cleared by your surgeon.

Dressing and Bandage Care

If a dressing is applied, follow the instructions on when and how to change it. Some light drainage or spotting may occur in the first few days, which is typically normal. Always wash your hands before and after touching the area or changing dressings.

Managing Swelling and Discomfort

Mild swelling, bruising, and sensitivity are expected during early recovery. Applying a cold compress (wrapped in cloth) in short intervals during the first 24-48 hours may help reduce swelling. Over-the-counter or prescribed pain medication should be taken exactly as directed.

Activity Restrictions

Rest is important during the first few days after surgery. Avoid strenuous activity, heavy lifting, cycling, running, or any movement that may strain the surgical site. Wear loose-fitting underwear and clothing to minimize friction and discomfort.

Sexual Activity

Sexual activity, including masturbation and intercourse, should be avoided until your surgeon confirms complete healing, typically around 4–6 weeks. Resuming activity too early may interfere with healing and increase the risk of complications.

Medications

Take all prescribed medications as directed, including antibiotics (if given) to prevent infection and pain relievers to manage discomfort. Avoid blood-thinning medications unless specifically approved by your doctor.

Follow-Up Care

Attend all scheduled follow-up appointments so your surgeon can monitor healing progress and address any concerns. If sutures are used, your provider will advise whether they dissolve naturally or require removal.

Candidates for Adult
Circumcision

Men may consider adult circumcision due to a range of personal and clinical factors. While the motivations vary, they often stem from medical reasons or specific concerns related to comfort, hygiene, or lifestyle. Below are some of the most common groups of candidates:

Benefitsof Adult Circumcision

Improved Hygiene

Removing the foreskin can make daily cleaning easier and reduce the risk of certain infections. A circumcised penis may also be easier to keep clean, supporting better overall personal hygiene.

Reduced Risk of Infections

Circumcision lowers the chances of urinary tract infections and sexually transmitted infections, including HIV and HPV. It may also reduce the spread of infections to other parts of the body in some instances.

Medical Relief

Conditions such as phimosis (tight foreskin), balanitis (inflammation), and recurrent infections can be effectively treated through circumcision. This can provide long-term comfort and prevent future complications.

Enhanced Appearance

Some men choose circumcision for cosmetic preferences or to feel more confident with their partner. It contributes to an improved appearance that aligns with their aesthetic.

Reduced Risk of Penile Cancer

Though rare, circumcision is associated with a lower risk of penile cancer. Early removal of the foreskin may reduce the buildup of irritants that contribute to cellular changes.

Risks & Safety
Considerations

Adult circumcision is generally a safe procedure when performed by a qualified surgeon, such as Dr. Solomon, in a clinical setting. However, like any surgery, it carries some risks.

Possible Risks

Safety Approach
