How much does circumcision cost?

Circumcision costs vary by surgical method and the patient's condition. A standard circumcision is about KRW 200,000–400,000; a sutured or cosmetic circumcision is about KRW 400,000–800,000. The final cost depends on the method, anesthesia type, and any additional treatment.

What are the pros and cons of circumcision?

Circumcision keeps the genitals cleaner and lowers the risk of smegma, balanoposthitis, urinary tract infection, and sexually transmitted diseases. Studies also show a lower risk of STDs such as HPV and HIV. Downsides: temporary pain, discomfort when walking, and rarely bleeding or infection after surgery. With an experienced medical team, most patients recover quickly.

How much pain is there after surgery?

There is less pain than with conventional circumcision, and pain medication alone usually controls it.

Will scars or suture marks be left behind?

The minimal-incision sleeve technique lets the wound heal cleanly with almost no scar — a major advantage.

How long does recovery take?

Daily activities can resume after 2-3 days, and sexual intercourse or masturbation from about 4 weeks after surgery.

Laser circumcision:
when should you consider it?

When recurring inflammation or debris buildup under the foreskin makes hygiene difficult, circumcision may be necessary.
Surgery is best performed after puberty, but it can be done at a younger age if symptoms are severe.

When the foreskin does not retract even during an erection and always covers the glans (true phimosis)
When a retracted foreskin becomes inflamed and cannot be returned over the glans (paraphimosis)
When the foreskin retracts, but weak creased areas keep splitting, causing wounds and inflammation
When the foreskin retracts, but pubic hair gets caught, smegma builds up, or odor and other discomfort occur
When the foreskin retracts, but condyloma or warts on it must be removed
When having selective dorsal neurectomy for premature ejaculation, a penile implant, or penile curvature correction

Goldman laser circumcision:
how is it performed?

Goldman laser circumcision uses the latest laser to make a precise incision in the foreskin, then separates it in a thin layer with the sleeve technique and removes it.
Bleeding and tissue damage are kept to a minimum for a fast recovery, and the subcutaneous tissue beneath the skin is rolled into a ring and fixed toward the glans, so a penile enlargement effect can also be expected.

Local anesthesia is given, then the skin is marked.
The sleeve technique separates the skin as thinly as possible.
The excess skin is removed.
The fascial layer under the skin is rolled toward the glans and fixed.
The wound is closed with special care to minimize scarring.
Cleanly healed after surgery.

What sets Goldman's laser circumcision apart

The sleeve technique with the latest laser reduces unnecessary incisions.
Underlying tissue is preserved with minimal tissue and vessel damage, so surgery is very safe.
The remaining subcutaneous tissue is fixed toward the glans, which gives a penile enlargement effect.
Goldman's ONE-DAY SYSTEM covers testing, surgery, and discharge in one day, so it fits even a busy schedule.
