Circumcision or Triple Incision

[Leon03]

Hi, I am rather asking for my little brother who is 14.
He had a bad balanitis for some 3 weeks a while ago that was hard to get under control. Now that it healed completely it turns out that the inflammation caused quite a bit of scar tissue around his foreskin's tip. So he cannot retract his foreskin at all when hard and hardly when soft.
He gets an ointment to soften the scar tissue but the doctor told him already that there are only little chances.
He might have to have a complete circumcision (partially would not work because it is mainly the inner foreskin) or a so called Triple incision.
Does anybody know how this looks like when healed?
You find a lot of information on the net about cirucmcision but only a little about the Triple incision that simply widens the foreskin surgically.
He does want to keep his foreskin so he is super curious about the alternative. Therefor all experiences are welcome you can share.

See a doctor.

Before this happened, how far could he retract? I'm sure you already know, but retraction should never be forced. Was this the result of forced retraction?

If you google for phimosis triple incision some things should come up, including this paper

Did you even read the post before replying? He is under the care of a doctor.

When you ask about forced retraction it seems as if you are trying to find someone
to blame for his problem happening. He didn't ask for that; he asked for the best
solution.

Really, I don't know about the other one, but circumcision doesn't look all that bad. It just leaves a faint mark, a "circumcision scar" that you can see. And personally, I think they look a bit better overall.

I think the best option will be circumcision.

Thank you for your advises.
My brother will have his circumcision tomorrow.
Cross fingers that everything goes well!
