O-Shot – 5 Things To Know Before Treatment
Curious about the O-Shot and whether it might be right for you? This blog deep dives into the details of the treatment, providing the 5 essential things you should know before making a decision on whether it’s right for you.
Whether you’re experiencing symptoms or you’re simply interested in learning more about the benefits of the O-Shot, this information can help you navigate your options and make an informed choice.
What Is The O-Shot?
The O-Shot uses a ground-breaking treatment already used for wound healing and joint injuries: Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP). Extracted from your own blood, PRP injections revitalise your vagina by stimulating stem cells to produce new tissue.
This includes collagen and fatty tissue, essential for structure and lubrication, along with nerve endings and blood vessels. This translates to thicker vaginal tissue, heightened sensitivity, and increased blood flow to erogenous zones, potentially improving your overall sexual experience.
What Can The O-Shot Help With?
The O-Shot can help with a variety of different issues, including;
Vaginal Dryness
Dryness can cause sex to be very painful, and the O-Shot can help to stimulate the rejuvenation of the vaginal tissue. This natural rejuvenation causes an increase in natural lubrication, resulting in more enjoyable sexual intercourse.
Incontinence
The O-Shot promotes new tissue growth and can help to treat all types of incontinence, including stress and urge incontinence.
Painful Sex
The O-Shot can help to enhance sexual function and reduce pain by rejuvenating the vaginal walls and increasing natural lubrication.
Low libido
This treatment improves sensitivity and heightens sensations during sexual stimulation. It is proven to increase your libido by increasing blood flow to the areas responsible for sexual pleasure, including the G-Spot.
Sensitivity
This treatment increases blood flow to your vagina and thus increases sensitivity, making sex more heightened and enjoyable.
Vaginal Atrophy
Vaginal atrophy makes your vaginal tissue thin, dry, and inflamed. The O-Shot can help to enhance sexual function and improve overall urinary health.
PRP procedures start to work straight away after your treatment, and most patients will notice an improvement in their vaginal atrophy and overall sexual vitality within a few weeks.
Vaginal Laxity
The O-Shot increases your production of collagen, and this turn can help tighten up the vaginal walls.
Lichen Sclerosus
Many LS sufferers have benefited from PRP treatments. By helping to heal the damaged tissue, PRP can provide significant relief from Lichen Sclerosus symptoms because it uses the incredible healing ability of your immune system to heal another area.

What Happens During Treatment?
The O-Shot Process: A Closer Look
The O-Shot uses a fascinating process that harnesses your own blood’s potential for vaginal rejuvenation. Here’s how it works:
- Blood Draw: Like any blood test, a small amount of blood is first drawn from your arm.
- Centrifugation: This blood sample is then placed in a centrifuge, a machine that spins it at high speed. This rapid spinning separates the various components of your blood.
- PRP Extraction: During this separation, the platelets, rich in growth factors, are concentrated, creating a potent solution called Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP). Think of it as a “wonder serum” packed with healing power.
- Injection: The extracted PRP is then strategically injected into specific areas of your vagina, including the entrance, upper wall, base of the clitoris, and the labia. This injection process aims to stimulate stem cells and potentially improve various aspects of sexual function.
Although this might sound painful, a numbing cream is applied to the vaginal walls, clitoris, and labia. This effective pain relief, combined with using a very fine needle and the expertise of Dr Shirin, makes this treatment more comfortable.
You can expect to feel slight pressure, while some report a slight sting or burn, but this quickly passes, and the procedure takes less than 10 minutes in total.
It is best to book this treatment mid-menstruation cycle, but this can be discussed during your initial consultation.
How Long Will It Take To Feel The Results?
Typically, you will start to feel results after 3 weeks of your initial treatment. Results will steadily increase over time up until about 3 months, when you should start experiencing the full results.
These results can last up to a year, and they can be topped up when needed.
