Consult the Doctor who operated on your father.
In fact such questions should have been clarified when your father was coming home after the operation.

ZSR or stapler circumcision refers to the advanced technique that involves minimal incisions to remove the foreskin from the top of the penis.
Next Steps
Recovery period :-
is usually 2-3 days depending on the severity of the foreskin condition
and the surgical expertise of the surgeon.
However, complete recovery may take around 1-2 weeks if the patient strictly follows post-recovery tips.
Stapler can be removed from 1 week .
Health Tips
Precaution:-
Regularly wash your penis with lukewarm water every day while having a bath.
Gently pull back the foreskin and wash the penis head properly because it can cause irritation and dryness.
A mild or non-perfumed soap can be used to wash the penis as it can reduce the risk of skin infection.
Avoid using deodorants and chemical products that can be allergic to the skin and cause irritation
