Different types of cosmetic circumcision

  • Sleeve technique :-

Some men have a foreskin that hangs loose. In such cases, doctors can achieve circumcision without pulling back or notching the skin. Doctors get the name ‘sleeve technique’ from the resemblance of shortening of the sleeves of a garment.

  • Dorsal slit :-

Other men often complain that they have a tight foreskin again their penises’ corona. This condition refers to phimosis. Doctors can treat phimosis by making a dorsal incision that will release the tight ring around the foreskin. The skin will then pull back and help the doctor in contouring while removing the unwanted or excess material.

  • Proximal Cosmetic Circumcision :-

Later, the two skin planes will get suture from the base of your penis. The results of this method will help in the long recovery period. It is because the procedure as a whole is quite complex.
