I'm thinking about getting a frenuloplasty, and I've got a few questions. How much should I expect it to cost, and how long will it take for me to recover completely? I'm also a bit anxious about the pain level after the surgery. Is it going to be really intense? Appreciate any advice you can give!

Frenuloplasty surgery typically costs between $500 to $2,000, depending on factors like the clinic, location, and complexity of the procedure. Recovery usually takes about 1-2 weeks, with most patients resuming normal activities within a few days. Pain is usually manageable with over-the-counter medications, and any discomfort typically subsides after the first few days.
