After searching a lot I found him on internet. I’m satisfied to choose him. He did the circumcisie for my 1 months old son perfectly.
No bleeding no side effect and the operation process was fast. He knows what to do.
Thank you Dr. Nourparvar.
Understanding Frenulum Conditions and When Treatment Is Needed
The penile frenulum is a small but important band of tissue located on the underside of the glans. When it is too short or tight, a condition commonly referred to as frenulum breve, it can contribute to:
- Pain or pulling sensation during erections
- Recurrent tearing or bleeding
- Difficulty with sexual activity
- Increased sensitivity or discomfort
In a large metropolitan area such as Los Angeles, where men increasingly seek proactive men’s health care, these concerns are more commonly discussed and treated in a medical setting. National urological data suggest that penile frenulum abnormalities are a frequent but underreported cause of sexual discomfort, often managed successfully with minor outpatient procedures when properly diagnosed.


Frenuloplasty vs. Frenulectomy: What Is the Difference?
While often discussed together, frenuloplasty and frenulectomy are distinct procedures. Dr. Nourparvar evaluates each patient individually to determine the most appropriate option:
- Frenuloplasty involves carefully releasing and reconstructing the frenulum to increase length and flexibility while preserving tissue.
- Frenulectomy involves complete removal of the restrictive frenulum when reconstruction is not ideal or sufficient.
Both procedures are performed with meticulous technique, using local anesthesia and modern surgical principles to minimize discomfort and support optimal healing.
