Shocked

hello, all.
I had a thought...(or rather a series of), concerning frenuloplasty.
Does it cost any money?
If so, how much?
Because i'm seriously consiering getting this done to me,
but i'm not exactly the rich type, if you get my drift. >_>
any replies would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Frenuloplasty
i had a frenuloplasty 12 hours ago something that i have put off for 2 years due to fear.After seeing the consultant he recomemded a general anisthetic, i asked him if it could be done under local he told me he could try and see how i felt during this minor opp.
After receving my local i was taken to theartre after about 5 mins the surgen started i felt absolutly nothing and now 12 hours on still no pain and that is without taking any pain releif. (and i am the worlds worst when it comes to hospitals).
so i hope this will put your mind at ease if you are considering this procedure as i looked on every site for information post opp.

Can you share how the experience was for you? I am looking to get one done in Atlanta but cannot find a doctor that does not want to lop my entire foreskin off...

Frenuloplasty
the experience was not as bad as i thought in fact 1 week on and i have still never felt any pain or had any swelling, stitches are starting to come out now and all well.
If your foreskin can pull back and forward im sure you will be able to save it and have a frenuloplasty symtoms are tight (banjo string) causing splitting of the foreskin only on the underside causing scar tissue this makes it tighter every time it splits. So if this is your symtoms there is no need for a full circumcision.

I can comfortably retract the foreskin with my hand when limp and semi-erect but when fully erect, can withdraw it only 65-75% depending on the degree of hardness. When I look for the source of tension it is quite clear that it is in fact the frenulum which is now spread out (when erect) which has less ability to expand and thus allow for the free movement of the foreskin.
