Plastic surgery of penis frenulum in Kharkiv

The penis frenulum is a soft tissue that connects the penis glans and stem on the underside of the penis. Abnormally short frenulum is a pathology in which erection and sexual activity are accompanied by discomfort and pain.

Pain and discomfort during sex may indicate a short penis frenulum. But the pathology can be corrected: doctors at “ON Clinic Kharkiv” lengthen the penis frenum with the help of plastic surgery.

Frenulum frenuloplasty is a surgical procedure that relieves the discomfort and pain associated with a short frenulum. The idea of penis frenulum plastics is that a man’s frenulum is lengthened by a dissection method.

Penis frenulum plasty should not be confused with circumcision. Circumcision is a surgical procedure for foreskin removal. Plasty of the penis short frenulum is a local procedure that affects the frenulum itself, while the foreskin is preserved.

Symptoms for penis frenulum plasty

The main symptom of a short frenulum is discomfort and pain during erection. Painful sensations, as a rule, intensify during intercourse. Due to the intense frictions, the penis frenulum can be damaged, which causes severe pain and leads to bleeding.

Abnormally short frenulum also leads to psychological and physiological problems: a constant fear of pain during sexual intercourse can lead to erectile dysfunction, decreased self-esteem, anxiety, and avoidance of intimacy. Besides, men with a short frenulum often suffer from premature ejaculation, therefore, to improve the quality of sexual life, pathology must be treated.

The short frenulum of penis is confused with phimosis – a tight pulling of foreskin. But these are different disorders. To make a differential diagnostics between phimosis and short frenulum of penis, you need to consult urologist.

Procedure of penis frenulum plasty in Kharkiv

Cutting of penis frenulum is carried out under local or general anesthesia – a man does not feel pain during the operation. During the operation on the foreskin frenulum lengthening occurs due to incisions on frenulum, which are subsequently sutured so that its length increases. After surgery, longitudinal sutures are applied to the frenulum without leaving a cosmetic defect. Cutting the foreskin frenulum lasts an average of 10 minutes.

On average, recovery after lengthening the penis frenulum lasts up to 4 weeks. After frenulum correction, it is important to keep the operating wound on the penis clean: during hygiene procedures, the foreskin should be carefully pulled back. After removing the penis frenulum, a man needs to refrain from sexual intercourse for 6 weeks.
