How we help
- Private consultation: your doctor checks your health, explains the procedure and answers every question
- Local anaesthetic: the area is fully numbed, so you stay awake and comfortable
- The procedure: performed by our doctor in a private procedure room, usually in one visit
- Aftercare and follow-up: clear written instructions and a review visit to check healing
What to expect
Plan for a relaxed visit: a short consultation, the procedure itself, then a rest before you go home with your aftercare instructions.
Mild swelling and tenderness are normal. Keep the area clean and dry, wear loose, supportive underwear and take pain relief as advised.
Most men return to desk work within a few days. Avoid heavy exercise for about a week, or as your doctor advises.
Healing takes a few weeks. Your doctor will tell you when intimacy can resume, commonly around 4 to 6 weeks.
Contact us promptly if you notice heavy bleeding, increasing pain or swelling, fever, or difficulty passing urine. Tell us before booking if you take blood thinners or have diabetes or a bleeding problem.
Common questions
Does adult circumcision hurt?
The procedure is done under local anaesthetic, so you should feel pressure but not pain. Some soreness afterwards is normal and is managed with pain relief your doctor recommends.
How long does it take to heal?
Most of the healing happens in the first two weeks, with full healing over a few weeks. Your doctor reviews you at follow-up and advises when normal activity and intimacy can resume.
Can I go back to work the next day?
Many men with desk jobs return within a few days. If your job is physical, plan for a little longer. Your doctor will advise based on your recovery.
Is it private?
Yes. Consultations and the procedure take place one to one in a private room, and your records stay strictly confidential.
