The No-Needle No-Scalpel Vasectomy is a virtually pain-free way to undergo a vasectomy.
Dr. Chapman is an expert in the performance of the No-Needle No-Scalpel Vasectomy, and is one of the only doctors in Houston who is able to offer this procedure to his patients.
The No-Scalpel Vasectomy is the standard technique most Urologists use to perform a vasectomy. At the start of this procedure, the surgeon numbs the scrotal skin and vas deferens using an injection of numbing medicine such as lidocaine. This numbing is the most painful part of the procedure, as it involves a hypodermic needle stuck into the scrotum.
Dr. Chapman takes this technique to the next logical evolution by offering the No-Needle No-Scalpel Vasectomy. In this procedure, the numbing is done with a painless spray that delivers the numbing liquid through the skin without the need for a steel needle. This technique spares the patient from the pain of the injection and allows for a pain-free No-Scalpel Vasectomy to be performed.
