Can Frenulum Be Removed And Sleeve Resection Be Done?

I need my frenulum removed because it is so short, can it be removed first then a sleeve resection done at the base of my penis then the shaft skin moved down to the base and the two ends stitched together with no stitches in the end of the foreskin by the glanis ?

Hello
Thanks for query.
You have been thinking of what is not practiced just to avoid stitches at the coronal sulcus while doing circumcision..

Degloving the entire penile skin will damage the the neuro vascular bundle of the penis during dissection and is not practiced any where in the world for avoiding stitches at glans penis .

During frenuloplasty or Circumcision foreskin is excised and the inner layer of prepuce is sutured to the penile skin .Though they are stitched together the scar line is so fine and linear that you may not notice stitches after 6 months
