No-Scalpel Vasectomy - Open Ended

Before scheduling a no-scalpel vasectomy, the physicians will discuss the benefits and risks involved, providing sketches that describe the details of the procedure. Your vasectomy will be performed in our office and will take only 5-10 minutes to complete. Following the procedure, the person who accompanied you may drive you home so that you can recover in the familiar comfort of your own home. Benefits of the no-scalpel procedure versus a traditional procedure include:

Usually requires less time to perform
Less traumatic to the tissues
Less discomfort during and following the procedure
Less bleeding
Less risk of infection
No stitches
A single, small puncture entry--no incision

Often patients are surprised by how quickly and easily they recover. Ice packs can alleviate any immediate discomfort, and an athletic supporter may be worn as needed. You may return to work after two days, and to full activity within a week; for this reason, you may find Friday afternoon a convenient time to schedule the procedure.
