Infant Male Circumcision

With thousands of circumcisions performed, Chequers Health Group offers exceptional circumcision services for babies, prioritising the comfort and satisfaction of both mother and baby.

Certainly, infancy is considered the optimal time for circumcision. During this stage, babies experience less pain, exhibit minimal movement, and lack memory recall of the procedure. Based on our experience, we’ve found that the Plastibell method yields the best outcomes when performed on children between 1 to 3 months old. This age range ensures maximum comfort for both the child and the parents during the procedure and facilitates a smoother recovery process.

We advocate for the Plastibell ring method of circumcision, known for its clinical reliability and minimal discomfort, especially for babies. This technique involves minimal cutting, resulting in minimal bleeding, and its perfect circular shape ensures a precise surgical outcome. The simplicity and efficiency of the procedure have made it a preferred choice among parents.

The complete Plastibell procedure typically lasts around 10 minutes and is associated with minimal pain compared to alternative circumcision methods. This technique eliminates the need for stitches or dressings and typically involves minimal bleeding during the operation. Following the procedure, the child is left with a small scar that tends to fade gradually over time.

Parents do not need a referral from their GP to have their son circumcised; it’s a decision solely in their hands. Booking an appointment is straightforward, and our friendly team is available to assist you. Whether for personal, medical, cultural, religious, or any other reason, all are welcome to utilise our services.

At Chequers Health Centre, Bolton, safety, comfort, and cosmetic outcome are paramount. Our reputation in Bolton, built on word-of-mouth recommendations, reflects our commitment to these principles. We use certified sterile surgical tools for single-use only and routinely administer local anaesthesia to minimise pain.
