❓ What is Circumcision (Posthectomy)?
Circumcision (posthectomy) is a simple and quick medical procedure that involves removing the foreskin — the skin covering the head of the penis.
Ideally performed on newborns between 5 and 30 days old, our doctor also performs circumcisions on older babies, young boys, teenagers, and adults.
📅 How to Book an Appointment?
Send your child’s first name, last name, and date of birth via the online form or by WhatsApp at +212 644 382 431.
We will then let you know if any lab tests are required.
Once we receive the results, we will set the procedure date.
💉 Anesthesia – How Is Pain Managed?
We follow a 4-step protocol:
-
Paracetamol – Given by the parents 30 minutes before the appointment.
-
Sweet Pacifier – Used during the procedure to reduce pain perception.
-
Topical Local Anesthesia – An anesthetic cream or spray applied to reduce the sting of the injection.
-
Injected Local Anesthesia – A fine needle injects the anesthetic into the already numbed area, acting on the nerve of the penis in about one minute.
We also provide visual distraction: a large screen is available so the child can watch a program of his choice, helping reduce anxiety and pain.
During the entire procedure, your child remains awake and comfortable.
Thanks to our pain-control protocol and visual distraction, most children watch cartoons or chat with the accompanying parent throughout.
This approach is safer than general anesthesia as it avoids the risks associated with putting a child to sleep and allows for a faster recovery.
📋 On the Day of the Procedure – Guidelines
-
Plan to stay at the clinic for about 1 hour.
-
Feed your son before leaving home so he won’t be hungry during the procedure.
-
Arrive 5 to 15 minutes early and bring two towels and diapers.
-
If you arrive late, your appointment may be rescheduled.
-
Give your son paracetamol appropriate for his age and weight 30 minutes before the appointment (preferably as syrup).
-
Do not give aspirin or ibuprofen, as these may increase the risk of bleeding.
-
If your child is older and anxious, you can request a prescription by WhatsApp for a calming syrup to give the evening before and the morning of the procedure.
🔍 How the Circumcision Is Performed
Before the circumcision, the doctor will:
-
Perform a complete clinical examination
-
Conduct an ultrasound if necessary
Then:
-
Clean the glans
-
Retract the foreskin (“décalottage”) to expose the glans
-
Remove the foreskin using an electric scalpel
-
Perform cutaneous–mucosal sutures for optimal aesthetic results
🩹 Aftercare Instructions
General Guidelines
-
Keep the area clean and dry
-
Change diapers more frequently during the first week
-
Gently clean with warm water and a soft cloth, then dry immediately
-
Do not use wet wipes, alcohol, powders, or lotions
-
Avoid unnecessary car trips to prevent irritation
First 24 Hours
-
Mild irritability is normal
-
Keep your baby comfortably swaddled to limit leg movement
-
Sleeping position: on the side (never on the stomach)
-
Provide care in a calm environment
-
If crying persists for several minutes, check if the baby swallowed air and gently burp him without pressing on the penis
-
Bathing: sponge baths only for the first 3 days
-
Check the diaper every hour for signs of active bleeding
-
Coin-sized spots of blood are normal
-
If the dressing falls off early: apply a thin layer of prescribed cream on a gauze and cover the penis until the Day 3 check-up
After 1 Day
-
At every diaper change: spray the prescribed product from a distance without touching the dressing or penis
-
Allow it to dry completely before putting the diaper back on
After 2 Days
-
If the skin slightly covers the glans: gently push it back just behind the head to ensure proper healing
From Day 3 Onwards
-
After the check-up: apply the prescribed ointment to the incision site and over the entire glans
After 2 Weeks
-
Full baths are allowed
-
Stop applying ointment
-
If you have concerns, call or send photos via WhatsApp to the doctor
⏳ Healing – Normal Stages
-
24 Hours: initial wound healing, bleeding stops
-
1–2 Days: glans may appear off-white/yellowish and spotted (normal scab-like appearance)
-
3–7 Days: possible swelling behind the glans (blister-like), normal
-
1–2 Weeks: swelling gradually reduces
-
Up to 2 Weeks: incision may appear green/yellow (healing tissue, not pus)
-
About 1 Month: glans may look bright red or purplish (keratinization process); returns to normal appearance around 30 days
🔎 General Appearance
Penises vary in shape and size.
Some look “normal” quickly, others only with growth.
After circumcision, the penis may seem smaller because the surrounding skin, which previously held it more upright, is now looser.
