The procedure of circumcision for children can be performed by a trained professional. There are many options today for circumcision. These include the In-office procedure and Laser circumcision. This article explains how each one works and how your child can be made as comfortable as possible during the procedure. If you have questions, contact your doctor for a consultation. It usually takes around 15 minutes and is considered painless.
In-office circumcision
You will have the option to choose when you want circumcision. Most often, it is performed within the first month of your child’s life. Your child will not feel any pain, and you can perform the surgery while your child is awake. Older children should be anesthetized so that there is no risk of injury to their penis. As children get older, they become more aware of their sexual organs and may be afraid to have them cut.
In-office circumcisions are painless and last no more than an hour. The time taken to perform the procedure will vary depending on whether or not there are any adhesions or infections. Local anesthesia is usually enough to make the procedure painless and fast. However, some patients may prefer to have general or spinal anesthesia. While most patients do not feel any pain, the recovery time for this procedure is approximately one to two weeks.
Laser circumcision
The laser is a non-invasive, low-energy source that produces pulses that last 250-350 milliseconds. The laser energy is delivered near the prepuce via an optical fiber. A traditional surgical team uses long, straight forceps and cuts the preputial tissue below the corona. The operation is completed by electrocoagulation. Laser circumcision is extremely painless and fast and is one of the best surgical procedures.
Although traditional methods of circumcision still involve a scalpel, laser technology has made it much more pain-free. It causes less tissue damage, hemostasis, as well as less pain. While carbon dioxide lasers are most common, the holmium-YAG laser was the first laser to be used for circumcision. This laser has been extensively studied and has proved its safety.
Pollock Technique
The Pollock Technique for painless, painless circumcision is a highly efficient technique that can be used by boys, girls, and even men of all ages.

Shang Ring
There are many advantages to the Shang Ring for painless, painless circumcision. Compared to a conventional circumcision, it can be less painful and has fewer risks. Most men can return to work within two days, although some did not, citing discomfort, pain, and concern over their penis. 28 (70.0%) participants were back at work by day seven.
The Shang Ring for painless circumcision uses an incision-free method. To make it easier to use the device, a small cut is made in the skin of the foreskin. The inner ring of the wound is then removed and the incision closed. The wound was then closed with a bandage. Men were instructed not to remove the bandage for 24 hours.
