Hypothetically, if a man is already circumcized and converts to Judaism, what happens then?

In conversion a Bris is completely different. Not the same kind of ceremony etc.

First a brief background. In order to convert, there must be an acceptance of the Jewish laws, a ritual cleansing (in the mikvah aka ritual bath), and a circumcision/blood-letting. If a man converts and is already circumcised, there must be some type of small drawing of blood in that area. It does not need to be extremely painful or whatnot, but there needs to be an amount of blood.

Ouch!
