Circumcision is the surgical removal of the skin that covers the tip of the penis, called the foreskin.
For some families, circumcision is a religious ritual. The procedure can also be a matter of family tradition, personal hygiene, or preventive health care.
Circumcision in adults is becoming more common. Health problems such as Diabetes cause alterations in the vascularity of the foreskin, and due to an increased risk of balanitis (inflammation of the glans) and posthitis (inflammation of the foreskin), permanent atrophic changes occur in the foreskin that make it impossible or difficult to retract the foreskin. himself (phimosis).
There is also a personal preference, either for aesthetics or for sexual reasons, which is why circumcision is an increasingly demanded intervention.

At Sexual Medicine Dr. Molina we are at the forefront of the most advanced and least invasive techniques applied to circumcision.
We are the first private center in Valencia to offer the TECHNIQUE WITHOUT SCALE AND WITHOUT POINTS.
We perform different techniques depending on the needs and preferences of our patients:
The circumference of the penis is measured to know which device …
use. Once selected, local anesthesia is applied so that the surgery is completely painless. A frenilloplasty is performed if necessary. The device is then applied around the foreskin and the skin is sectioned and spliced in the same act by applying a line of staples that will fall off on their own. Next, a double bandage is placed. The outermost is left for 2 hours, and the innermost 4 days. You can then walk home on your own.
At the end of the intervention, you walk on your own. The next day…
1 – It will hurt me?
No, once the anesthesia is applied …
local, it is totally painless.
2 – Will I bleed a lot?
One of the advantages of the SUTURELESS technique is that there is little or no bleeding. Great advantage in older people or in those who are more prone to bleeding.
3 – Is a lot of skin trimmed?
Another advantage of the Suturess technique is not to leave the skin taut, leaving part of the skin that can partially cover the glans, unless expressly desired or needs of the patient himself.
4 – How do I control nighttime erections?
With the SUTURELESS technique, nighttime erections are less annoying as the tension is distributed linearly along the staple line, even so, certain habits are recommended to reduce the number of erections, as well as their intensity.
5 – When do the staples fall out?
From the eighth day, the area of the staple is massaged to stimulate its fall. Typically, they fall before 15 days, but they can remain for up to 30 days.
6 – How are the cures?
They are very simple. Bandage 4 days without doing anything. Withdrawal of it after 4 days, apply Betadine and re-bandage it for another 4 days. After the 8th day, in the open air and apply Betadine 4-5 times a day and begin to massage the staples.
In addition, we offer the possibility of performing a PREPUCIOPLASTY, instead of circumcision, in those candidate cases who present phimosis and wish to preserve the foreskin.
We are experts in performing adult circumcisions. We carry them out for all kinds of reasons; aesthetic, recurrent infections, personal, and as part of many of the treatments we perform in genital cosmetic surgery. We also have extensive experience in reoperations for previous circumcisions, either due to aesthetics or poor functional results.
If you have interest or doubts about this type of surgery, do not hesitate to contact us or request an appointment.
