Circumcision
Precise adult circumcision with a choice of techniques — cleaner hygiene, lower infection risk and a discreet, refined result.
Overview
Circumcision is the surgical removal of the foreskin — a short, well-established procedure chosen for health, hygiene, medical and personal reasons. It can lower the risk of urinary tract infections, sexually transmitted infections and certain cancers, make day-to-day hygiene simpler, and resolve uncomfortable conditions such as phimosis (a foreskin too tight to retract) and recurrent balanitis. For many men it's also a matter of comfort and appearance: a cleaner, more uniform look they feel good about.
At MENHANCE the procedure is performed by a urologist with 30 years of experience, in a calm, fully private clinical setting. It takes around 20 minutes under local anaesthetic, so you stay comfortable throughout and go home the same day. There's no need to be put to sleep, and no overnight stay.
What sets us apart is precision and finish. We offer two techniques so the method can be matched to your anatomy and cosmetic goals — from a fast, minimally invasive stapler approach to a refined sleeve technique completed with Dr. Chai's subcutaneous suturing, where every stitch is hidden beneath the skin for the most natural, barely-visible result.

How it works
Circumcision removes the foreskin and seals the edge of skin neatly behind the glans. We offer two proven methods — a stapler technique built for speed and fast healing, and a sleeve technique built for the finest cosmetic finish — so the approach fits your anatomy and what matters most to you.
Subcutaneous suturing
This is what sets MENHANCE apart. Dr. Chai buries every suture beneath the surface, inside the dermis, so there are no visible stitches: the skin heals smooth and flat, with a refined, barely-visible line.
The treatment, step by step
- Consultation & planningYour urologist examines your anatomy, discusses your goals and health, and recommends the technique — stapler for fastest recovery, or sleeve for the finest cosmetic finish.
- Local anaestheticThe area is cleaned and numbed with local anaesthetic, so you stay awake and comfortable throughout with no need to be put to sleep.
- The procedureThe foreskin is removed using your chosen technique. The stapler seals the edge with a ring of staples; the sleeve technique is closed with Dr. Chai's subcutaneous sutures, hidden beneath the skin.
- Dressing & aftercare briefA light dressing is applied and you're given clear aftercare instructions, prescribed ointment and pain relief. The whole visit takes around 20 minutes of procedure time.
- Recovery & follow-upYou go home the same day. Mild swelling settles over the first few days, with overall healing around four weeks, supported by a follow-up check.

Frequently asked questions
Does it hurt, and will I be awake?
The procedure is done under local anaesthetic, so the area is fully numbed and you stay awake and comfortable throughout — there's no need for general anaesthesia. Mild swelling or tenderness in the first few days afterwards is normal and managed with prescribed pain relief.
What is recovery like?
Most men return to light daily activities within days. The stapler technique typically heals fastest, with overall recovery around four weeks. Keep the area clean, apply the prescribed ointment, wear loose clothing, avoid strenuous activity and heavy lifting, and abstain from sexual activity until you're fully healed.
Which technique is better — stapler or sleeve?
Neither is universally "better"; they suit different priorities. The stapler is minimally invasive with reduced bleeding and the fastest healing. The sleeve technique allows greater customisation for complex anatomy, revision cases and aesthetic refinement, and is finished with Dr. Chai's subcutaneous suturing for a barely-visible scar. Your urologist recommends the right one at consultation.
Will there be a visible scar?
With Dr. Chai's subcutaneous suturing, every stitch is placed beneath the skin, so there's no visible row of stitches — the area heals to a smooth, flat, barely-visible line.
Are there risks?
Circumcision is a well-established, low-risk procedure. Possible risks such as infection, bleeding or a reaction to the anaesthetic are uncommon and are further minimised in the hands of a urologist with three decades of experience. You'll receive clear aftercare guidance and a follow-up to support safe healing.
Is it suitable for everyone?
It's suitable for most adults and adolescents in good health, but candidacy depends on your individual health, anatomy and goals. The right approach — and whether circumcision is right for you — is confirmed at your consultation.
