Modified 6S Technique for Circumcision in Ahmedabad
Remove only what's needed. Keep what nature gave.
The Modified 6S Technique is Dr. Alpesh Patel's own refinement of circumcision — developed over 16+ years of surgical experience and 2,500+ circumcision surgeries. Instead of removing the entire foreskin, this approach aims to preserve as much as safely possible, with the exact amount decided for each patient individually. The result is a gentle, precise, day-care procedure with excellent outcomes.

Traditional circumcision removes 100% of the foreskin. The Modified 6S Technique takes a more measured approach: it removes only the portion that actually needs to go, and keeps the rest wherever it is medically appropriate. The whole idea is to maintain what nature has given while still achieving the hygiene, comfort and medical goals of circumcision.
Because every patient's anatomy and condition are different, the amount removed is never fixed in advance. Dr. Patel decides it only after a careful physical examination and a detailed review of the patient's history — so the procedure is genuinely tailored to the individual.
