Why Choose Medical Circumcision?
Medical circumcision is recommended for individuals experiencing conditions such as:
- Phimosis: Tight foreskin that cannot be retracted.
- Paraphimosis: Foreskin trapped behind the glans, causing swelling.
- Recurrent Infections: Chronic balanitis or urinary tract infections.
- Lichen Sclerosus: A skin condition causing scarring and discomfort.
- Penile Cancer Prevention: In rare cases, circumcision may be advised for those at risk.
Our team works closely with patients to assess their medical needs and recommend circumcision only when necessary.
