The Mogen Clamp Technique
Differing from other techniques, such as the Gomco clamp or a Plastibell device, the Mogen Clamp, is a simple hinged metal plate that is curved on one side. The clamp is divided by a 3mm slit which allows the passage of the foreskin but helps prevent glans entrapment and injury.
The use of the Mogen Clamp and expertise to perform circumsicisions means the right amount of foreskin will be removed, inherently improving the cosmetic look. Dr. Akil has been operating with this procedure for over 8 years.
Randomized controls determined that the Mogen Clamp is associated with less pain and discomfort, and is safer, faster, and preferred by surgeons.
Why is The Mogen Clamp Technique preferred?
With less pain, fewer incisions, and better cosmetic results, the penis is allowed to retain some of its natural look and will appear more natural later in life. There are also fewer risks of infection or other medical issues inherent with fewer incisions, and the recovery time will be reduced as a result.
The Comfortable Choice
Dr. Mohamad Akil has a desire and commitment to providing the best care possible. The comfort of you and your family is our top priority, making us the most comfortable choice.
How long does it take?
Because there are fewer incisions with a Mogen Clamp, the entire procedure is very fast and almost completely clean and bloodless. A typical procedure may take between 5-30 minutes to complete, but speed is not everything. Our main concern is the wellbeing of your child and giving him the best outcome.
As part of Dr. Mohamad Akil's high practice standards, great care is taken to ensure the procedure is as accurate as possible to ensure the best cosmetic results, as well as maintaining a level of comfort in the procedure demanded by his standards and standards of the parents.
What happens next?
Recovery time may vary from child to child, but gauze is typically only needed for the first day and ointment for the days following. You will also have access to Dr. Akil for follow-up appointments after the procedure to ensure optimal healing and outcomes.
