Byadisorn

Staple Circumcision is a highly popular innovation today due to its satisfying results. The wound heals quickly, requires minimal recovery time, and achieves an aesthetically pleasing shape without complications. It is especially suitable for patients who wish to undergo circumcision for easier hygiene or those experiencing issues such as a tight foreskin or infections caused by the accumulation of dirt and bacteria.

What is the Foreskin?

The foreskin is the fold of skin that covers the head and tip penis. Its primary function is to protect the glans and urethral opening from friction, injury, and inflammation caused by the prolonged accumulation of bodily secretions, urine residue, or dirt.

Normally, the foreskin opens just enough to allow urination. As one grows older, it typically becomes retractable. Regular cleaning is recommended to prevent the buildup of impurities. However, in some cases, the foreskin may become too tight or constricted, making urination difficult. If left untreated, this condition can potentially lead to infections.

What is Circumcision?

Circumcision is a surgical procedure that eliminates the excess foreskin to allow for easier retraction. This facilitates better hygiene and helps prevent the accumulation of impurities such as urine residue, bodily secretions, or sweat. The area beneath the foreskin is a common site for bacteria to thrive, so for those who have not undergone circumcision, consistent and thorough cleaning is essential.

Benefits of Circumcision

  • Helps facilitate easier hygiene
  • Reduces the risk of sexually transmitted infections
  • Prevents foreskin phimosis
  • Lowers the risk of penile cancer
  • Decreases the likelihood of urinary tract infections

What is Staple Circumcision, and why should you consider it?

Staple Circumcision is a surgical procedure to remove the foreskin using a specialized device designed for Staple Circumcision. This method simultaneously cuts the foreskin and closes the wound with durable materials in a single step, resulting in a well-proportioned appearance, a neat scar, and significantly reduced blood loss.

Benefits of Staple Circumcision

  • Reduces the risk of infection or inflammation, as the device simultaneously cuts and stitches the wound
  • Enhances hygiene by preventing the buildup of impurities
  • Quick wound healing with minimal recovery time
  • Short procedure duration—only 15 to 20 minutes
  • Available in various sizes to accommodate patients, starting from age 4 and up
  • The Staple Circumcision device is certified by the Ministry of Public Health and approved by the FDA, ensuring a high level of safety

What does Staple Circumcision cost?

Although Staple Circumcision has become increasingly popular due to its ease of hygiene and reduced risk of infection, patients should still thoroughly research and understand the procedure before deciding to undergo surgery. Masterpiece Hospital offers free consultations for those concerned about foreskin-related issues. The starting price for Staple Circumcision is 6,900 baht, depending on individual conditions.

Is there a difference between circumcising children and adults?

Circumcision can be performed on both children and adults, and the results are similar. In addition to helping prevent infections and making hygiene easier, circumcision eliminates the need to retract the foreskin each time for urination or cleaning. It also reduces the risk of phimosis, tightening, inflammation, or infection. It is recommended to perform circumcision during childhood to establish good hygiene habits. However, this does not mean that adults cannot undergo the procedure; adults can also have their foreskin circumcised.
