Steps of Laser Circumcision Procedure
Laser circumcision refers to a surgical procedure that involves the removal of an appropriate amount of foreskin to fully expose the glans penis. The surgery should be performed at a正规 hospital, and the procedure is as follows:
1. The patient lies in a supine position. After anesthesia administered by an anesthesiologist takes effect, routine disinfection is performed and sterile drapes are applied.
2. The surgeon uses two hemostatic forceps to clamp the mid-portion of the dorsal edge of the foreskin, then uses a grooved probe to separate any adhesions until the glans and foreskin are completely separated. The foreskin sac and glans are then cleaned again with sterile saline solution.
3. Based on the size of the glans, an appropriate glans cap is selected to cover and protect the glans, and a special shield is used to cover the scrotum to prevent injury to the glans and testes.
4. The foreskin is flipped outward, and a laser device is used to scan and precisely ablate the targeted foreskin tissue through high-temperature cauterization.
5. Approximately 0.3–0.5 cm of foreskin is left for suturing.
After surgery, proper wound care is essential to prevent infection, and sexual activity must be avoided.
