Instead of cutting and stitching the foreskin, a ring is placed in the space inside the foreskin and a string tied tightly. This slowly cuts and the skin fuses, and the ring with the excess skin falls off in 8 to 10 days. A numbing cream is applied to the base of the penis and a numbing injection is given to make the separation of the skin painless. The process is quick, not requiring stitching, parents stay with the baby, the baby is ready to go home in between 1 to 2 hours and so it appears to be less traumatic than the steps involved in general anaesthesia of blood test, Covid test for baby and mother, separation from parents and spending nearly a day in hospital. This technique is not suitable for some boys.
