1. What’s the best age for circumcision?
Ideally within the first few weeks of life. Healing is fastest and the procedure is simplest in newborns, although we do up to 4 years.

2. Can I still circumcise if baby has vaccinations due?
Yes. Just avoid doing both on the same day. A 1–2 day gap is ideal.

3. My baby is under 2 months. Can I give paracetamol?
Yes, but use the dose we provide. Ignore the “2 months+” warning on the bottle — that’s for over-the-counter use.

4. What should we bring on the day?
Both parents (or all legal guardians), valid ID, baby’s birth certificate (if you have it), spare nappies and any feeding supplies.

5. Do both parents need to attend?
Yes, unless agreed with us in advance. Both must give consent.

6. Will my baby feel pain?
We use local anaesthetic and comfort techniques. Some babies actually fall asleep midway, others (especially the older kids) will cry throughout due to being held still or sensing pressure, not because of any pain.

7. What method do you use?
The Plastibell method — safe, quick, and stitch-free.

8. How long does it take?
The procedure takes around 10-15 mins. Expect to be at the clinic for about 1 hour.

9. How do I care for it at home?
Keep it clean and change nappies frequently. Aftercare instructions are provided through daily WhatsApp messages.

10. When will the ring fall off?
Usually in 5–10 days by itself. Don’t pull it off.

11. Is it safe?
Yes. Complications are rare. We offer 24/7 aftercare if needed.

12. Is there any bleeding?
A small amount is normal. We’ll show you how to handle it. Contact us if it persists.

13. Will my baby be sleepy or irritable afterwards?
Some babies are sleepy immediately after, others a bit unsettled - both are normal and temporary, lasting no more than 24 hours after.

14. Can we travel after the procedure?
Yes - but we recommend staying local at least until the ring comes off, which is usually 5-10 days from the procedure.

15. Can you circumcise babies born prematurely?
Yes - once baby is well and usually above 2.5kg. We will always assess for suitability.

16. Do you circumcise teenagers and adults?
At present, our clinic is for babies and infants only.
