Both approaches aim for the same outcome—blocking sperm—but they access the vas deferens differently. No-scalpel vasectomy uses a tiny skin puncture and specialised instruments; traditional methods use small incisions. Evidence supports using minimally invasive access with modern occlusion techniques for excellent success and low complication rates. (AAFP)

Your doctor’s technique for sealing the vas (e.g., mucosal cautery ± fascial interposition) is a major driver of success and low recanalisation. We follow guideline-supported occlusion methods with proven low failure rates. (AUA)
