[Comparison Criteria] Procedure time A No-Touch Surgery is typically performed in 45-90+ minutes depending on the complexity of the case. The surgical goals of the technique are to minimize the surgical impact on fragile penile tissue and reduce post-operative bleeding and infection risks as well as maximize outcome. Minimizing surgical time is not the priority.
Part of the procedure is completed in 30 minutes or more. The openings in the base of the penis are not closed requiring placement of a drain to remove blood, which continues to drain from the penile shaft. Pre-operative skin preparation, closure of the incision, and placement of the drain requires additional surgical time.
