What to expect on the day

Pre-procedure review
Your urologist confirms your medical history, examines the foreskin and glans, and answers any final questions.

Anaesthetic
A local anaesthetic numbs the area. You remain awake and comfortable.

Procedure
The foreskin is removed and the skin edges are closed with dissolvable stitches.

Going home
A light dressing is applied. You will be given written aftercare guidance and contact details.

Recovery and aftercare

Soreness is common for 7 to 10 days

Stitches dissolve on their own

Sexual activity is usually postponed for 4 to 6 weeks. Your urologist will confirm the timing for you

Exercise and heavy lifting should be avoided for about 4 weeks, especially contact sports

Underwear choice is personal. Some prefer snug support while others find looser boxers more comfortable in the first week

Medication
You may receive antibiotics if your surgeon feels they are appropriate. Always complete the course if prescribed.
