Frenulotomy (cutting of the short frenulum)

Frenulotomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure involving the incision of a short penile frenulum. It helps eliminate discomfort, pain, and the risk of frenulum rupture during sexual intercourse. The operation is quick, painless, and does not require a long recovery period.

When is frenulotomy indicated?

• In the presence of a short frenulum causing tension and pain during erection.
• In cases of frenulum tears accompanied by recurrent bleeding.
• If curvature of the glans penis is observed during erection.
• In premature ejaculation associated with increased frenulum sensitivity.
• In cases of inflammation or scar formation after a previous frenulum rupture.

How is the procedure performed?

1. Diagnostics and preparation – urological examination and consultation regarding the surgical technique.
2. Anesthesia – local anesthesia is used to eliminate pain.
3. Frenulum incision – the surgeon makes a small incision using a laser or a scalpel.
4. Wound closure (if necessary) – absorbable sutures may be applied.
5. Postoperative care – antiseptic treatment and detailed care instructions are provided.
