Laser Circumcision in Dubai

Introduction

Cosmocare Medical Center offers advanced laser circumcision — a modern, minimally invasive procedure for foreskin removal that combines precision, minimal pain and bleeding, fast recovery, and an excellent cosmetic outcomes. Our Surgeon, with many years of experience, ensures that every patient receives safe and comfortable care with the latest laser technology.

What Is Laser Circumcision?

Laser circumcision is a surgical technique in which a high-precision laser is used to remove the foreskin rather than a scalpel or traditional cutting method. The laser simultaneously cuts, cauterizes and seals the blood vessels and tissue, resulting in less bleeding, reduced risk of infection, and cleaner edges. It is suitable for both children and adults and can be performed under local anesthesia.

Understanding Laser Circumcision vs. Traditional Circumcision

Traditional Circumcision

Traditional circumcision is a surgical procedure where a doctor uses a scalpel or surgical scissors to remove the foreskin. The procedure is typically performed under local or general anaesthesia.

Pros of Traditional Circumcision

  • Well-established and widely practiced.
  • Performed by experienced surgeons.
  • Generally effective with low risk of complications.

Laser Circumcision

  • Higher risk of postoperative bleeding as the vessels are not well sealed unlike in laser leading to disruption of clots, especially during involuntary erections.
  • Requires more time for healing.
  • Pain is generally more felt than laser and can last for few days delaying return to regular activities and work.
  • Cosmetic result may not be as optimal as after laser circumcision.
  • Slightly higher risk of infection.

Laser Circumcision

Laser circumcision is an advanced circumcision technique that uses a high-energy laser beam to cut and seal the foreskin simultaneously. This method reduces bleeding and pain, leading to a faster healing process.

Pros of Laser Circumcision

Pros of Laser Circumcision

  • Painless circumcision: The laser cauterizes nerve endings, reducing pain.
  • Faster recovery time.
  • Minimal bleeding and reduced risk of infection.
  • More precise and efficient compared to traditional methods.

Cons of Laser Circumcision

  • May not be available in all medical facilities.
  • Higher cost than traditional circumcision.
  • Requires specialized equipment and trained professionals.

Who Needs Circumcision?

Some of the common indications for circumcision include:

  • Phimosis: foreskin cannot be retracted over the glans.
  • Recurrent foreskin infections (balanitis or balanoposthitis).
  • Poor hygiene / irritation due to tight foreskin.
  • Medical or functional need: e.g. difficulty maintaining cleanliness, or as recommended for medical reasons.
  • Cultural, religious, or personal preferences.

Benefits of Laser Circumcision

Laser circumcision offers several advantages over conventional techniques:

  • Reduced bleeding due to immediate cauterization of small vessels.
  • Minimal postoperative pain & discomfort, thanks to minimal tissue trauma due to the use of advanced laser.
  • Faster healing and recovery—patients resume light daily activities the same day. Complete healing often within 3-4 weeks
  • Outpatient / same-day procedure: you can go home the same day.
  • Better cosmetic outcomes: clean incision lines, minimal scarring.
  • Lower risk of infection and complications compared to more invasive techniques.

Procedure: What To Expect

Here is an outline of how the laser circumcision procedure is typically carried out at Cosmocare:

Consultation & assessment

The doctor examines the foreskin, discusses medical history (e.g. prior infections, comorbidities), anesthesia options, and ensures it's safe.

Preparation

Under sterile conditions, the area is cleaned. Local anesthesia is administered

Marking the foreskin

The foreskin is marked to define excision margins.

Laser excision

A laser device precisely removes the foreskin. The laser cauterizes simultaneously, reducing bleeding and sealing small blood vessels.

Closure

The edges are closed using dissolvable sutures.

Dressings or protective bandaging are applied. Ice pack is given. Patient is given instructions for hygiene, medications and follow-ups.

Typical procedure time is 30-45 minutes; this may vary depending on patient age or complexity.
