For boys over the age of 6, there is a deposit of $100 due on the day of the consultation to confirm the circumcision appointment. This consultation fee will be deducted from the total cost when the surgery is performed.

Common Questions

How should we prepare for the procedure?

We will speak with you to confirm on how to prepare for the circumcision.

For infants we recommend feeding your son before coming in for the procedure, and bringing along extra nappies.

We will also have you give him baby Panadol. This will be reviewed with you in detail, and you can ready more about the steps before your boy’s circumcision on the Infant Circumcision page.

What circumcision method is used at your clinic?

At the Gentle Procedures Clinic, we practice the Pollock Technique™, proven safe in over 100,000 procedures.

We use this technique because it provides an extremely quick and virtually painless experience for the child and has world leading positive outcomes.

We are offering circumcision for all ages using the same safe technique. For children, adolescent and adult circumcision please contact us today.

For full detail on our circumcision method using the Pollock Technique™ please see the Circumcision Method page.

What are the benefits of circumcision?

Circumcision has been the topic of debate for many decades. Research and scientific studies indicate that there are a number of medical benefits that result from this procedure.

Circumcision benefits include the following:

• Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was reduced by 53% to 60%.
• Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV-2) was reduced by 28% to 34%.
• Human papillomavirus (HPV) was reduced by 32% to 35%.
• Among female partners of circumcised men, bacterial vaginosis was reduced by 40% and Trichomonas vaginalis infection was reduced by 48%.

Many of these studies were done in developing countries. The protective effects of circumcision may be lower in Australia.

Additional health benefits of circumcision

Potential benefits include:

• Lower risk of getting cancer of the penis, a rare type of cancer.
• Lower risk of urinary tract infections during the first year of life. Urinary tract infections during the first year of life can be serious and may lead to hospitalization. An uncircumcised baby boy has a 1 in 100 chance of getting a urinary tract infection during the first year of life, compared with a 1 in 1000 chance for a circumcised baby boy.
• Prevention of foreskin infections.
• Prevention of phimosis, a painful condition in which the foreskin retracts. Circumcised males do not get this condition.
• Easier genital hygiene.
• Studies now show that circumcision may also significantly reduce prostate cancer.

Because so many studies have indicated a link between circumcisions and improved health and lower incidence of serious, sometimes deadly diseases, demand for infant circumcision has increased dramatically.
