Patient's question:
I have excessive foreskin and I don't know which hospital in Xi'an offers the best surgery, whether it's laser or Korean style. Additionally, is the surgery process safe? I would like to consult on how to undergo a foreskin and phimosis surgery.Doctor's answer:
Circumcision is one of the simplest surgical procedures in urology. Surgical methods include the commonly used instrument excision, which has the advantage of neat edges, minimal skin tearing, and rapid scarring. There is also the laser blade excision, which involves very little or no skin tearing but slower scarring, as well as electrocautery excision, among others. Regardless of the method used to remove the foreskin, it is essential to debride the inner and outer layers of the foreskin to facilitate healing. Each surgical method has its pros and cons, but as long as the surgeon is skilled, any method can be chosen. Circumcision is a surgical procedure that should not be taken lightly. Although the surgery may go smoothly, postoperative care is also very important, and specific matters should be noted.
