Congratulations for your decision!
Circumcised is much better: cleaner, healthier, less risk of AIDS-HIV contraction, no loss of sensitiviy, no urinary infections.
Any urologist can perform the procedure.
Now some info on circumcision, keep reading...
CIRCUMCISION IS VERY BENEFICIAL, its cleaner and several research bodies have concluded that circumcised men have less risk of contracting STD's such as AIDS-HIV or herpes.
Uncircumcised penises are difficult to keep clean, and more prone to infections and penile cancer, studies have shown.
A circumcised penis is naturally clean and virtually free from urinary infection. You will not have to worry again with careful washing of your penis.
About STD's:
As I said, several studies carried out by prestigious research bodies have concluded that uncircumcised penises are more prone to infections and contraction of STD's, including AIDS-HIV. Circumcised men have been proved to be up to seven times less likely to be infected than those who are uncircumcised. Have a look at this site: http://www.torontodailynews.com/index.php/HealthNews/2006121404Circumcision
As for women, studies also show that circumcision also protects female partners from AIDS-HIV and other STD's. Browse this article: http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/Press_releases/2006/02_08_06.html
About sensitivity of a circumcised penis:
No medical or physiological study has proved that circumcision reduces sensitivity, opposed to common belief. It is completely FALSE that circumcision reduces penis sensitivity. The American Academy of Paediatrics (AAP) confirms this on their web site; have a look at: http://www.aap.org/pubed/zzzjzmemh4c.htm
Circumcision is an easy and nowadays *painless* procedure, which has many benefits, and virtually no risks.
Circumcision is NOT an amputation. Circumcision is NOT comparable at all to female circumcision, which is something completely different.
Circumcision rates are INCREASING nowadays, both in the United States and overseas. Many African and South American countries with little circumcision tradition are starting to promote the procedure to help to reduce the AIDS-HIV infection rates.
Finally, this site has a lot of useful and *unbiased* information. Make sure you have a good look: http://www.circinfo.net

I got identified with genital herpes (type 2) about three years back, whilst I was still attending college and had a stupid one-night stand. I understand loads of young women say this, but I swear I had never done that sort of thing before. I just made a huge mistake that one time and all of a sudden it seemed like I was going to have to live with the implications for the rest of my life. The hardest part was feeling I could never date other men again. In the end, who wants to go out with a girl who has sores around her "you know what" area? But since a friend shared this movie https://tr.im/s6olK everything improved.
Not only was I able to clear away all traces of the herpes simplex virus from my body in less than 3 weeks, but I was also able to begin dating again. I even met the man of my dreams and I'm so fortunate to write that just last week, in front of everyone in a busy restaurant, he got down on one knee and proposed to me! This system provided the chance to be happy and experience true love again. Now I hope that I can help others by sharing this story.

You can, though you should be prepared for the effects. You will be losing thousands of nerve endings; and after the operation, the head of the penis will develop a covering of keratin, which further reduces feeling.
While men who grow up without a foreskin are unaware of the reduced sensation, men who are circumcised as adults often complain of reduced sensation, and many are unable to reach orgasm just from sexual intercourse - they have to finish by hand.
Unless you have a medical condition requiring this procedure, it really is not recommended.

You can have it done at any age. You will have to pay as the NHS does not cover unnecessary cosmetic surgery.
I will tell you now it will hurt like absolute hell - I have 2 mates who had it done (one aged 16 who had it done about 10 years ago, the other aged 43 who had it done last year) and they said the pain was extreme.
I had my foreskin pierced yesterday which stings quite a bit - I don't want to think about how much getting it cut off would hurt.

Yes you can but I don't know why you would want to inflict that pain for cosmetic purposes. You would need to see a urologist and have him refer you to a surgeon. There would be healing time so you would need to be able to take off work. Also if there is not a medical condition your insurance may not cover the procedure. You should call your insurance company to make sure it will be covered.

Please reconsider. You have a foreskin for a reason! It's not more hygienic to have the foreskin removed. Just like a woman's vagina, under your foreskin live a very delicate balance of bacteria that protect your genitals from infections....plus a penis without a foreskin doesn't look finished to me. It is mutilation.

I'm sure theres a procedure to loosen rather that remove the foreskin - you've probably become attached to it, it has its uses in the bedroom (pun not intended)
See your GP it could be quite common

you can be circumcised at any age, try a cosmetic surgery place because if you are in the UK, it is unlikely you will get it on the NHS.
I know someone who had to have it done for medical reasons and he was in agony..... so be sure that you want it done!

You can have the snip at any age, and speaking from a woman's point of view I think it's much cleaner.
