The no-scalpel vasectomy technique involves a small puncture instead of a traditional incision, which minimizes tissue trauma. This reduces bleeding and pain, leading to less postoperative discomfort. The procedure is quicker and causes less swelling, allowing patients to resume normal activities sooner. These factors contribute to a shorter recovery time compared to conventional vasectomy methods. Thus, the technique is favored for its efficiency and improved patient experience.
