In conjunction with Circ Australia
Southern Cross Specialists is working with Circ Australia to provide male circumcision using the UniCirc® surgical assist device.
About circumcision
Circumcision is a surgical procedure to remove the foreskin. It may be considered for medical, cultural, religious or personal reasons. A consultation should cover why circumcision is being considered, whether the procedure is appropriate, anaesthesia and pain relief, aftercare, expected recovery and possible complications.
About UniCirc
UniCirc is a single-use surgical assist device developed for male circumcision. The exact technique, anaesthesia, wound closure and aftercare used by Southern Cross Specialists should be described here once the final clinical protocol and patient information have been approved.
Draft compliance note
This local draft intentionally does not state that Circ Australia is the “only” authorised supplier or that Southern Cross Specialists surgeons are the “only” authorised surgeons in Australia. That claim should be added only after the exact authorisation, supplier status and permitted advertising wording have been documented.
