Follow-up

A wound check is included; contact the clinic any time if you have concerns during healing.

Circumcision is performed by Dr. Kim Jeong-man, a board-certified urologist, rather than at a general clinic — which matters for technique, anatomy and complication management. Pricing is stated up front and English-speaking support covers consent, the procedure and aftercare, so foreign patients know exactly what to expect.
