All About Vasectomy
What is a vasectomy?
Vasectomy is a simple, safe, and effective form of permanent birth control.
With Premier Vasectomy and Family Planning, vasectomy is a gentle, office-based procedure that takes about 20-30 minutes to complete. Vasectomy works by blocking the tubes (vas deferentia) that carry sperm from the testicles. This prevents sperm from entering the semen. You will have little or no discomfort during the vasectomy.
We use a minimally-invasive "no scalpel" vasectomy technique. No-scalpel vasectomy uses special small tools to reach the vas tubes by making one small opening in the scrotum without cutting. Because this opening is so small, stitches are not needed. It's different from the “classic” vasectomy that makes two larger openings on the scrotum and sometimes needs stitches. The chance of complications is less with the “no scalpel” technique and the patient usually feels much more comfortable. Recovery is faster.
No scalpel vasectomy is as effective as classic vasectomy for birth control. No matter the technique, vasectomy is permanent.
