Circumcision and Phimosis Surgery in Barcelona
Is phimosis causing pain or making hygiene difficult? In Barcelona, our urologists perform phimosis surgery to help you feel comfortable again.
What is Phimosis and Why is Surgery Usually Recommended?
Phimosis is the inability to fully retract the foreskin, leaving the glans exposed.
In adults, this condition can cause pain during sex, increase the risk of infections such as balanitis, and make hygiene more difficult.
Circumcision is the surgical treatment that permanently corrects this problem.
Phimosis Surgery (Circumcision) at Our Clinic
It is a simple, effective outpatient surgical procedure that involves removing excess foreskin.
Anaesthesia: Generally, it is performed under local anaesthesia, so you won’t feel pain during the procedure.
Technique: Our urologists use precise techniques to ensure an optimal functional and aesthetic result.
Duration: The surgery is usually brief, lasting between 20 and 30 minutes.

A specialist urologist will assess your case, explain the procedure, and answer all your questions.
02 Surgery
It is performed as an outpatient procedure at our facilities.
After the anaesthesia, the procedure is carried out and, after a brief observation period, you’ll be able to go home.

We will give you detailed guidance on post-operative care, area hygiene, and managing discomfort. Initial recovery usually takes one to two weeks.
Benefits of Circumcision and Phimosis Surgery
Relief of Symptoms
The procedure corrects the tightness of the foreskin, preventing discomfort, pain, or difficulty retracting it.
