How Much Does Laser Phimosis Treatment Cost and Is It Effective?

Hello,

Yes, phimosis can be treated, and foreskin removal surgery is one of the treatment options when the foreskin cannot retract properly or causes repeated problems. A urologist should examine you first and decide whether circumcision is required or whether medicines and other treatments be sufficient.

How Much Does Foreskin Removal Surgery Cost?

The actual cost can vary depending on the hospital, surgeon, type of procedure, medical condition, investigations, admission, room type and location.

Can Laser Treatment Be Used for Phimosis?

Yes, laser circumcision can be an effective treatment for phimosis. It involves removing the excess/tight foreskin using a laser and may offer advantages such as greater precision and potentially less bleeding and faster recovery compared with conventional surgery. 

The estimated cost of laser circumcision can vary by city and hospital. Therefore, the urologist should assess your condition before recommending laser or open circumcision.

What Should You Do?

If you have difficulty retracting the foreskin, pain during erection/intercourse, repeated infections, swelling, or difficulty urinating, consult a urologist. Do not forcibly pull the foreskin back, as this can cause injury or complications.

The doctor examine the foreskin and recommend medicines initially in some cases. If phimosis is severe or does not improve, circumcision may be advised.
