Is Z- Plasty Better Than Fernuloplasty?

Hi, I am a 33 year old Male and looking to get Fernuloplasty in Dallas, TX area. I did some research online and found Z-Plasty is the best option. Is that true? Could you advise whom should i reach and the approximate cost to be financially prepared?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Yes, the technique you mentioned is to lengthen the frenulum to relieve stretch.

But V-Y plasty is also useful. Surgical method may vary depending upon how short is frenulum and associated phimosis is there or not etc.

Please consult your surgeon, he will examine and treat you with appropriate method of surgery.

Take care.
