Circumcision, or circumcision, is the removal of the foreskin of the penis. It is performed both for medical reasons and for aesthetic or religious purposes.

At Oxford Medical, the operation is performed by surgeons of the highest category who specialize in genital surgery. Thanks to the many years of experience of specialists and the use of modern techniques, each patient can be confident in the safety and effectiveness of the surgical intervention.

When is circumcision necessary?
Medical indications for circumcision are:
- phimosis - narrowing of the foreskin, which prevents the opening of the glans penis;
- paraphimosis - pinching of the glans (acute condition requiring urgent surgery);
- chronic balanitis, posthitis - inflammatory diseases of the glans penis and foreskin.
Aesthetic indications for surgery:
- recircumcision (re-circumcision);
- correction of errors after unsuccessful operations in other clinics.
In the first and second degree of phimosis, difficulties with opening the glans arise only in an erect state, while in the third and fourth - also in a state of rest. In this case, surgeons recommend male circumcision. Phimosis complicates hygiene, which contributes to the development of inflammatory and infectious diseases, can cause problems with urination (due to swelling of the foreskin), pain during intercourse and impaired reproductive functions.
In addition, circumcision is performed:
- for aesthetic purposes;
- to solve the problem of premature ejaculation;
- according to religious tradition.
Types of circumcision
There are two types of circumcision:
Partial circumcision
Complete circumcision
The entire foreskin is removed, after which the head always remains exposed.

Circumcision is performed under local anesthesia or IV (drug sleep). At the preparation stage, the man is prescribed blood, urine and urogenital discharge tests, and before general anesthesia, a cardiogram. At Oxford Medical, all tests can be completed in one visit.
The operation itself is performed as follows:
- Penis treatment with an antiseptic.
- Analgesia.
