Penile frenuloplasty

Dr. Carranza is an experienced, board-certified plastic surgeon.

This procedure is usually recommended when the frenulum (that extra bit of skin around the head of the penis) is abnormally short or sensitive, and can restrict the normal retraction of the foreskin during erection, thus generating pain, discomfort or even further complications. This can be a natural occurrence or a complication of an earlier circumcision.

Penile frenuloplasty is a good and safe alternative to circumcision.
