Operation Day

Please follow these simple preparation steps before your procedure to help ensure your visit is smooth, safe, and comfortable.

  • How to Shave

    Please use a clipper to shave your scrotum, as well as the base and sides of your penis. Avoid using a shave blade or hair removal creams. If needed, trim any remaining hair with scissors, and then wash the area with mild soap.

  • What to Wear

    Bring tight-fitting, supportive underwear (not boxers) to wear after the procedure.

  • What to Eat

    Have a light meal if needed before the procedure. Please avoid coffee, as we may offer you oral sedation (at no extra cost).

  • Wash with Soap

    Just before coming in, wash the genital area thoroughly with soap and warm water.

  • Transportation

    Although the operation is performed under local anesthetic, please arrange transport or have someone available to take you home.

  • Oral Sedation

    You will have the option to take an oral sedative tablet in addition to the local anesthesia to help ease any anxiety.

  • Clinic Schedule

    Please arrive at the clinic on time and inform the Receptionist of your arrival.​

  • The Procedure

    Expect to stay at the clinic for approximately 1 to 2 hours. This includes consultation, waiting for the oral sedation to take effect, the procedure itself (which takes 15-20 minutes), and aftercare.​

  • Avoid Alcohol

    Please avoid alcohol the day before and on the day of the operation to minimize the risk of bleeding and other complications.​

  • Medicard

    Don’t forget to bring your Medicare Card.
