Platelet Rich Plasma
What is Platelet Rich Plasma?
Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) is an enriched concentration of platelets that can be injected into damaged tissue to promote healing. As the PRP is derived from the patient’s own blood, there’s no risk for allergic reactions or rejections. There have been numerous studies that demonstrate the effectiveness of PRP therapy in helping a variety of medical conditions, including tendonitis, arthritis and wound repair.
FAQ
P-Shot
What is P-Shot®?
The P-Shot®, or Priapus Shot, is one of the many treatment options now available to men and other individuals who are struggling with erectile dysfunction. Poor circulation, prostate cancer, diabetes, and side effects from medication can all result in sexual performance issues; the P-Shot® has been used with great success by those struggling from ED. Other facilities provide similar regenerative treatments so that men can regain their sexual health and performance. If you’re looking for a solution for ED, consider booking an appointment with us.
How Does the P-Shot® Work?
The P-Shot® technology employs the use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP). PRP is derived from blood plasma and contains a high concentration of platelets, which are responsible for healing damaged tissue. Collagen production is triggered by platelets to repair muscles, joints, and bones in the body.
So, by having a concentrated amount of platelets in plasma, we can inject the PRP into you to stimulate tissue and nerve repair
Why Should I Get P-Shot®?
The P-Shot® treatment has been known to provide several benefits to those who have received it, such as increased sensitivity, improved sexual stamina, and enhanced blood flow to the penis. Additionally, many individuals experienced heightened erections that are firmer and stronger during intercourse, as well as an increase in both length and girth of their penis. Moreover, those without prostate cancer can enjoy a decrease in premature ejaculation. For post-prostate cancer surgery patients, this procedure has also been observed to help reduce some of the sexual dysfunction symptoms they’ve faced before treatment.
P-Shot® Injections Can Treat a Variety of Ailments
Erectile dysfunction affects men of all ages, and it is not the only sexual difficulty that can impede a man’s life. Other conditions involving the penile area can be treated with the P-Shot®. Examples include:
- Urinary incontinence
- Prostate discomfort
- Peyronie’s disease
Peyronie’s disease is a condition where scar tissue builds up in the penis, resulting in pain and curvature of the penis during erections. It is believed to be caused by injury to the penis that triggers an immune system response, leading to hardening of the scar tissue. Treatment options vary depending on the severity and progression of disease, but may include oral medications, or injections and surgery. The P-Shot® helps the body to straighten tissue while also improving its circulation and strength.
What Does the P-Shot® Process Look Like at Temple Collective?
The Priapus Shot is a non-invasive and painless treatment that takes approximately 30 minutes. Anesthetic and pain relief drugs during or after the procedure are not necessary and will not be administered or prescribed. You may participate in sexual behavior on the same day, as there is no downtime required.
Firstly, blood will be taken and flowed through a centrifuge to concentrate relevant serum components into PRP. Secondly, we’ll administer a local anesthetic to reduce discomfort from the injection. Thirdly, our qualified physician will inject PRP directly into your penis via a micro-needle, beginning the natural healing and regeneration process. Finally, we’ll provide more information on potential aftercare options or realistic timelines when significant improvements may become apparent in ED symptoms.
At the start of a treatment session, many patients are administered a topical or injectable numbing agent to reduce the sensations of pain. However, minor post-treatment side effects such as swelling, redness or bruising are possible. If you feel severe discomfort or notice any signs of an allergic reaction, it is recommended that you seek medical attention immediately. Upon completion of your medical session, patients may be able to return to their daily activities in as little as one hour.
When Can a Patient Expect Results From the P-Shot®?
The P-Shot® injection usually has an immediate effect on the patient, though it can take three to four weeks before meaningful changes occur. The amount of time needed for symptom relief may even extend up to three months in some cases. Your body’s ability to use PRP to regenerate tissue is unique and varies with each individual; that’s why we take the time to create personalized treatment plans that may include multiple sessions as well as nutritional and exercise advice tailored just for you.
