What you need to know about Circumcision in Cape Town

Circumcision is the surgical removal of the foreskin, the tissue covering the rounded head (glans) of the penis. This form of surgery is usually done in male infants, but also in older boys and men, for the following reasons:

  • It is usually done as a religious rite.
  • It may even be done simply because of culture or tradition.
  • It is recommended in older boys and men to treat phimosis (the inability to retract the foreskin)
  • For the treatment of paraphimosis.
  • Circumcision is done for treating swelling of the tip of the penis (balanitis).
  • To treat an infection of the penis.

What's the Recovery Time for Circumcision Procedures in Cape Town?

  • Within minutes, hours, or an entire day, the cut edges of the glans close up and the bleeding stops.
  • At first, i.e immediately after the procedure, the glans may appear glossy and red due to lack of exposure to the external environment provided by the mucous membrane that naturally covered it before circumcision. Once the membrane is exposed, it thickens and becomes darker.
  • Your penis may swell and bruise for the first 2 days. The swelling usually goes down within 2 to 3 weeks after surgery. Keeping the penis upright aids in speedy recovery. This can be done by wearing underwear that best suits your needs.

What's the Success Rate of Circumcision Procedures in Cape Town?

Circumcision, as a historical procedure performed with great accuracy, carries a high success rate in Cape Town. Your fears and anxiety are valid, but rest assured, the majority of these procedures end without significant complications. Keep in mind, the patient's health, pre-existing conditions, and the surgeon's experience impact this success rate.

Circumcision involves the removal of the foreskin from the penis tip and demands a highly skilled and experienced surgeon. Thus, choosing a reputable medical facility in Cape Town is pivotal for the favorable outcome of your operation.
