What is laser circumcision?

Laser circumcision is one of the most advanced circumcision procedures. During the procedure, the surgeon cuts off the foreskin using a high-energy laser beam. Since a laser is used to create the incision, there is little to no bleeding, and the wound edges are clean. It also completely preserves the surrounding tissues and is best for tissue conservation.
Laser circumcision is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that uses a laser to remove the foreskin of the penis. This procedure is performed by skilled urologists at MGM Hospital CBD using the latest laser technology. The laser ensures minimal bleeding and faster healing compared to traditional circumcision methods.
