Frenuloplasty (also known as a release of frenulum) is the surgical alteration of a frenulum when its presence restricts the range of motion between interconnected penile tissues. It is the most effective treatment for frenulum breve (short frenulum).
Frenuloplasty is most commonly performed to alter the frenulum in cases where it causes pain and discomfort during sexual intercourse. In addition, a frenuloplasty may become essential in uncircumcised men who have problems with the tightness of their foreskin. Frenuloplasty can help relieve tightness without the need to remove the foreskin, unlike circumcision surgery.
Diagnosis And Treatment Under Frenuloplasty
The diagnosis procedure before frenuloplasty is simple and is usually performed by a urologist. Your healthcare provider can diagnose the frenulum through a physical examination. In addition, they ask questions about the symptoms you are experiencing, your medical history, etc., before suggesting treatment.
The procedure usually involves removing the frenulum or creating an incision in the frenulum that is then stretched to lengthen it. The incision can be z-shaped, y-shaped, or a single horizontal cut. After this, the wound is closed with stitches. Once healed, frenuloplasty effectively elongates the frenulum, helping in normal functioning. Under normal circumstances the incision in the frenulum heals in around six to eight weeks, after which normal sexual activity can resume.
Another reason for the surgery is also to treat a rare complication of a frenulum breve which shows as scars on the frenulum. These scars cause pain and make normal sex very challenging and are caused by the rubbing of the frenulum while engaging in sexual activity. These scars only impact those with frenulum breve. The frenuloplasty can be performed under both general or local anesthesia.
Please Note: The selection of the treatment approach is based on your medical condition and your surgeon’s opinion.

The average cost of frenuloplasty in Thiruvananthapuram ranges between Rs. 30,000 – Rs. 35,000. However, the final cost of surgery relies on several factors, like the city and hospital where the surgery occurs, the severity of the medical condition, postoperative complications, and the urologist’s experience.
Frenuloplasty can cause some pain post-surgery, which is completely normal and temporary. In such a situation, stay calm and understand that any healing will take some weeks to cure completely. In post-frenuloplasty surgery pain, one may take over-the-counter painkillers for fast relief, but he should consult with the doctor first.
In some instances, frenuloplasty can result in the reduction of sensitivity or erection strength. Before frenuloplasty, the sensitivity of the frenulum is more as it consists of a variety of very sensory nerves. But, post-frenuloplasty, the patients might experience reduced sensitivity.
It is recommended to avoid sexual intercourse for at least a month post-frenuloplasty.
If frenuloplasty is delayed, an abnormally short or tight frenulum can make sexual intercourse highly uncomfortable and painful. Also, a tight frenulum can even split during sex.
Here are some simple instructions the doctor may ask the patient to follow.

This surgical procedure offers benefits like:
You cannot prevent congenital cases (disease or physical abnormality present from birth) of frenulum breve. Circumcision right after birth can eliminate frenulum breve.
Other ways to avoid penile conditions that lead to frenulum breve:
Healing post-frenuloplasty usually takes approximately 2-3 weeks. You might feel uneasy for some days, and the area around the penis might feel swollen.
Sometimes, it is advised not to touch the affected area for 3-5 days initially and to avoid bending or lifting heavy objects. Also, oily food that contains spice or chilly is a restriction for some time post-surgery.
