Hi & Welcome to HCM.
I appreciate your concern for the treatment of tight frenulum.
Tight frenulum is usually best treated under local anesthesia by a simple surgical correction known as Frenuloplasty. Circumcision is generally not necessary.
However, a tight frenulum may also be associated with a some scarring of the foreskin (tight foreskin), so a circumcision is needed in such cases.
Hope to have answered your query.
