Diagnosis

A urologist can diagnose a tight frenulum through a physical examination. The doctor will evaluate your symptoms, medical history, and any related discomfort before recommending a treatment plan.

Frenuloplasty Treatment Procedure

Frenuloplasty involves either removing or making an incision in the frenulum to lengthen it. The incision can be Z-shaped, Y-shaped, or a single horizontal cut, and it is then stitched to promote proper healing. Once healed, the frenulum is elongated, improving function and reducing discomfort.

In cases where scarring has developed due to friction during sexual activity, frenuloplasty can help restore normal function. The surgery is performed under local or general anesthesia, depending on the patient’s needs.

Note: The treatment approach is determined based on your medical condition and your surgeon’s recommendation.

At KK Virat Hospital in Karimnagar, we offer USFDA-approved, minimally invasive laser frenuloplasty, which helps modify the frenulum without deep cuts or excessive bleeding.

Our team of highly experienced urologists specializes in laser frenuloplasty with a proven track record of successful procedures and minimal complications.

Medical Evaluation Before Frenuloplasty

Before undergoing frenuloplasty, the doctor will conduct a thorough medical assessment to ensure you are a suitable candidate for the procedure. This includes:

• Physical Examination: The doctor will assess the frenulum’s condition and determine if surgery is necessary.
• Medical History Review: You will be asked about previous surgeries, existing medical conditions, allergies, and current medications.
• Blood Tests (if required): In some cases, routine blood tests may be conducted to rule out infections or underlying health concerns.

Pre-Surgery Instructions

To ensure a smooth procedure and recovery, your doctor may provide the following guidelines:

• Avoid Smoking and Alcohol: Smoking and alcohol consumption can slow healing and increase the risk of complications.
• Discuss Medications: Certain medications, such as blood thinners, may need to be adjusted before surgery.
• Maintain Hygiene: Clean the genital area thoroughly before surgery to reduce infection risks.
• Fasting Guidelines: If general anesthesia is used, you may be advised to fast for a few hours before surgery.

Due to its minimally invasive nature, laser frenuloplasty offers faster recovery while effectively relieving frenulum breve symptoms. Most patients experience long-term relief within a few weeks after the procedure

Laser frenuloplasty is a precise and minimally invasive technique that reduces the risk of severe pain and scarring.

Before undergoing frenuloplasty, your doctor may advise the following:

• Fasting guidelines – Depending on the anesthesia type, you may be asked to avoid food and drinks for a few hours before the procedure.
• Quit smoking – Smoking increases the risk of complications and slows the healing process.
• Discuss symptoms and medications – Inform your doctor about any existing conditions, allergies, and medications you are taking.

• Preserves the foreskin (unlike circumcision)
• Relieves pain during erections
• Improves the range of motion of penile skin
• Enhances sexual intercourse
• Facilitates easier foreskin retraction
• Reduces penile curvature
• High success rate of over 90%

While congenital cases of frenulum breve cannot be prevented, circumcision at birth can eliminate the issue. To reduce the risk of developing penile conditions leading to frenulum breve, follow these steps:

• Practice safe sex – Use condoms to prevent sexually transmitted diseases (STDs).
• Maintain hygiene – Wash the penis regularly, including under the foreskin.

Healing after frenuloplasty typically takes 2-3 weeks. Patients may experience mild discomfort and swelling in the first few days.

Doctors often advise avoiding direct contact with the treated area for 3-5 days, refraining from heavy lifting or bending, and following a mild diet without spicy or oily food post-surgery.

After undergoing frenuloplasty, proper post-operative diagnosis and follow-up care are essential for smooth healing and optimal results.

Immediate Post-Surgery Evaluation

• Physical Examination: The doctor will check for signs of proper wound healing and ensure no excessive swelling or bleeding.
• Pain and Sensation Assessment: Patients may experience mild discomfort, and the doctor will evaluate pain levels to prescribe appropriate pain management strategies.

Follow-Up Appointments

• First Follow-Up (After 1 Week): The doctor will assess the wound and remove any non-dissolvable stitches if needed.
• Second Follow-Up (After 3-4 Weeks): A final evaluation ensures complete healing, and patients will receive clearance to resume normal activities, including sexual intercourse.

Signs That Require Medical Attention

• Persistent swelling or redness
• Severe pain that does not subside with medication
• Excessive bleeding or discharge from the surgical site
• Signs of infection (fever, pus formation, foul odor)

By following the post-surgery diagnostic plan and recommended aftercare, patients can expect a smooth recovery and long-lasting relief from frenulum breve.
