Why is the compression bandage even necessary?
Because I perform such a large number of circumcisions, I have had the opportunity to refine the clinical aspects of the procedure. The compression bandage is not bulky or uncomfortable to wear. It prevents almost all edema (swelling) at the operative site and makes the healing process largely painless. By preventing edema in the wound edges, tension on the sutures is prevented. This minimizes suture marks.
