Surgical Frenulum Release of the Penis

Frenuloplasty – Everything You Need to Know

 

What is frenuloplasty?

 

Frenuloplasty is a minimally invasive urological procedure designed to correct a short penile frenulum. The frenulum is an elastic fold of skin connecting the glans to the foreskin. A short frenulum can cause pain, discomfort during sexual intercourse, and difficulty fully retracting the foreskin. The procedure involves precise cutting or lengthening of the frenulum, improving penile function and patient comfort. A prior urological consultation is required.

 

Who is frenuloplasty for?

 

The procedure is intended for men experiencing problems caused by a short frenulum, such as:

  • Pain during erections,
  • Discomfort during sexual intercourse,
  • Difficulty fully retracting the foreskin.

This procedure is especially recommended for individuals whose short frenulum affects their intimate life and daily functioning.

 

What are the benefits of frenuloplasty?

 

The procedure offers numerous advantages, including:

  • Improved comfort: Elimination of pain and discomfort during daily activities and sexual activity.
  • Short procedure time: The procedure is quick, minimally invasive, and performed on an outpatient basis.
  • Fast recovery: Patients can resume normal activities within a few days.
  • Enhanced quality of intimate life: Greater foreskin mobility, reduced risk of frenulum tears.

 

What to expect after the procedure?

  • Lengthened penile frenulum,
  • Easy retraction of the foreskin without pain or tension,
  • Reduced risk of frenulum injuries,
  • Increased comfort during sexual activity.

Most patients notice improved sexual function and confidence after completing the recovery period.

 

What are the contraindications for frenuloplasty?

 

The procedure is not recommended in cases of:

  • Active infections in the genital area,
  • Blood clotting disorders,
  • Severe systemic diseases.

An individual consultation with a urologist is necessary to assess the patient's health and determine the feasibility of the procedure.

 

Recovery after the procedure

 

Recovery is relatively short. Patients can resume normal activities after a few days, but it is advised to avoid:

  • Intense physical activity for 1-2 weeks,
  • Sexual activity for 2-4 weeks.

Mild redness, swelling, or pain at the surgical site may occur but typically resolves within a few days.
