circumcision and Ingrown Toenail Surgery at Leigheas Medical Centre
Delivering a modern, minimally invasive circumcision experience using cutting-edge CircCurer technology for unmatched precision and comfort.
Plastibell Circumcision in Tullamore, Offaly, Ireland
At Circumcision Surgery Ireland, we offer baby circumcision using the trusted ring method (Plastibell or Circumplast device). This is one of the most widely used techniques for newborn circumcision, offering a quick, precise, and gentle procedure with minimal handling of delicate tissue.
During the procedure, the foreskin is gently separated from the head (glans) of the penis. A small plastic ring is carefully placed over the glans and under the foreskin. A fine surgical string is tied securely around the foreskin, cutting off its blood supply. This ensures the foreskin naturally separates and falls away with the ring, usually within 3–12 days.

Ingrowing Toenails
Ingrown toenails cause the skin of the toe at the edges of the nail to become painful. There may be swelling and redness, new inflamed tissue (granuloma), and infection. It is important to note that not everyone with an ingrown toenail everyone with an ingrown toenail
Non-Surgical Treatment Options
The big toe is most commonly affected. Often home remedies such as soaking the foot and toe in salty warm water helps, but may not fully eliminate the swelling, redness or infection associated with ingrown toenails, especially once they have been present for more than 2 weeks In clinic your Podiatrist will reshape the nail to reduce the pressure it is putting on the nail bed. Footwear, socks and toe separators maybe advised
Ingrowing Toenail Surgery
When conservative treatments are insufficient, our ingrowing toenail surgery offers a permanent solution to recurring ingrown toenails. Our skilled podiatrists perform precise procedures to resolve the issue and promote proper nail growth, ensuring long-term relief for our patients. Ingrown toenail surgery is a quick and effective. It is minimally invasive and performed under local anaesthetic, providing a pain free experience.
🧸 Important Considerations for Baby Circumcision
While circumcision is a routine and straightforward procedure at our clinic, it’s important that parents understand their vital role in both the success of the procedure and the healing process.
Aftercare Is a Parent’s Responsibility
Following the procedure, your role in supporting proper healing is crucial:
Keep the area clean and dry as advised
Apply creams or Vaseline according to instructions
Use snug, well-fitting nappies to avoid unnecessary friction
Be gentle when cleaning or changing nappies to avoid trauma to the surgical site
Monitor for signs of bleeding or swelling and contact us if you’re unsure
Discourage toddlers from running or jumping for the first few days, as this can disrupt healing
Remember: most complications arise not during the procedure but due to post-procedure trauma. Your care at home makes all the difference.

Your Questions Answered
We understand that circumcision can be a big decision to take, and be a daunting experience. We aim to clarify the main questions you may have:
We perform circumcisions for all ages. However, the best recommended age is as soon as possible after birth, between 1-4 weeks.
We use local anaesthetic to numb the area and minimise discomfort during the procedure. The injection for this will be uncomfortable, however procedure will be painless.. Some mild discomfort in the first 24–48 hours is normal, and we provide full aftercare instructions to help manage this.
It depends on their age.
Under 2 months: Most babies remain calm or cry briefly. They’re easy to distract and settle.
2–6 months: Babies may cry intermittently but are usually manageable with comfort techniques.
Over 6 months: Crying is more frequent and difficult to settle.
Over 9 months to 5 years: Expect strong crying or screaming throughout the procedure — even though the area is numb. This is due to fear and unfamiliar surroundings, not pain.
At Circumcision Centre Ireland, we always take gentle, age-appropriate steps to minimise distress, but parental preparation and realistic expectations are key.
The procedure itself usually takes just a few minutes. Including preparation and aftercare review, you can expect to be in the clinic for about 45 minutes.
Yes — when performed by experienced professionals in a clinical setting like ours, circumcision is a safe and routine procedure. We follow strict hygiene protocols and patient safety standards at all times.
Costs vary depending on the age group of your son. Newborn baby circumcision starts at €400.
