A no-scalpel vasectomy is a technique used to access the vas deferens without making a traditional surgical incision. The procedure is typically performed using local anaesthetic.
A vasectomy:
Does not provide immediate contraception — additional contraception is required until follow-up testing confirms effectiveness
Does not protect against sexually transmitted infections
Recovery experience, discomfort, and time off normal activities vary between individuals. Some patients experience temporary pain, swelling, or bruising following the procedure.
What Are The Benefits of No-Scalpel Vasectomies?
No need for general anaesthesia.
Reduced risk of bleeding & infection.
Unlike condoms, a vasectomy is a one-off cost, making it a more cost-effective option over time.
