Circumcision—the surgical removal of the foreskin from the male genitalia—is a procedure performed for medical, personal, or religious reasons. Traditional circumcision methods often involve stitches, longer downtime, and higher discomfort. Fortunately, with medical advancement, stapler circumcision now offers a safer, quicker, and more precise alternative.
At Asteria Aesthetics Bhopal, Dr. Apoorv Loya performs stapler circumcision using a minimally invasive, stitch-free technique designed for better outcomes, reduced bleeding, and a smoother recovery process.
What is a stapler circumcision?
Stapler circumcision is a modern technique that uses a disposable surgical device—called a circumcision stapler—to remove the foreskin and simultaneously seal the edges using biocompatible staples or clips.
Unlike traditional methods involving scalpel cuts and stitches, the stapler:
- Cuts and seals the foreskin in one step
- Ensures uniformity and accuracy
- Reduces operating time and complications
- Allows faster healing and less pain
The technique is widely accepted for both adults and adolescents and is particularly useful for patients seeking a quick, hygienic, and cosmetically superior option.
When is circumcision medically recommended?
While circumcision is often performed for cultural or religious purposes, it can also be medically necessary in several cases:
- Phimosis: A Tight foreskin that doesn’t retract over the glans
- Paraphimosis: Retracted foreskin that becomes trapped and painful
- Recurrent infections: Such as balanitis or repeated UTIs
- Hygiene-related issues
- Preventive or therapeutic choice for adults
Dr. Apoorv Loya will evaluate your case to determine if circumcision is recommended or necessary.
