The Priapus-Shot cancan benefit in the following ways:
• Stronger and firmer erections
• Easier to achieve and maintain erections (i.e., improved sexual stamina)
• Increased penile length and girth
• Improvement in or the resolution of penile curvature from Peyronie’s Disease
• Resolution of penile pain with erection
• Increased sensitivity in the penis
• Better overall blood flow to the penis
The first step of the Priapus-Shot is to consult with the doctor to determine if the treatment is right for you. For the Priapus-Shot, a small amount of blood is drawn in the office at the time of the procedure. Your blood is then spun in a specially designed centrifuge which separates the platelets and plasma from the rest of the blood. The platelets are isolated and then injected back into the body wherever their benefits are needed. Numbing cream is applied and a block is performed on the penis to prevent pain caused by the injection. The platelets release growth factors and proteins which activate stem cells and stimulate cellular repair and regeneration. In addition, collagen production and the formation of new blood vessels occur and further aid in tissue repair.
No. TriMix is a shot to produce an erection for a brief period of time and must be given every time you wish to have an erection; however, the Priapus-Shot at is a treatment that revives and enhances your natural erections.
The PRP injection is performed in our office and should take about 60 minutes from start to finish with some time variation. You may drive yourself home after the procedure.
Yes. Using a VED, or Vacuum Erection Device, is essential for achieving optimal success from the procedure. This is usually done twice daily. It requires only a few minutes of your time and without it, success rates are usually lower. We will walk you through it the first time.
You may resume sexual activity about 4 hours after procedure on the same day.
Since PRP is extracted from your own blood, there are few and only minor potential side effects. These include bleeding or bruising, swelling, and very rarely infection.
We use the Emcyte Pure PRP® system. It extracts the highest concentrations of platelets on the market while simultaneously removing 99% of red blood cells (RBC’s) which can hinder the regenerative process. Many other PRP systems fall short of delivering a final injectable that can be considered platelet-rich. Unlike many other systems, Emcyte is a completely closed system throughout all steps of the processing that meets the highest sterility standards. So, if you are going to have a PRP injection, start with the best equipment to give you the highest quality product and maximize your success.
