3 Things You Need to Know Before You Get a P-Shot Procedure
The P-Shot procedure has quickly become one of the most well-known non-invasive penile enhancement treatments of our age, and for a good reason. The P-Shot technique helps overcome a range of issues, such as erectile dysfunction, Peyronie’s disease, and penis size.
The P-Shot (also known as a priapus procedure) uses PRP to regenerate tissue, and men report significant, long-lasting success following this procedure, but still, many men are reluctant to try this revolutionary treatment, often being fearful of anything involving this sensitive area (especially treatments that use a needle!).
The science, however, is innovative, and medical professionals have successfully used PRP treatments to repair damaged muscles and nerves for many years. But even with that being known, PRP treatments can often be misunderstood, so if you’re planning on having the treatment, here are 3 things you need to know.
1. The P-Shot Procedure Uses An Injection
Let’s start with the most frequently asked question – yes, the P-Shot procedure does use a needle, and that needle will be used on a very sensitive area. This fact alone prevents many men from taking a step towards having a priapus procedure, but the men who have taken those steps actually report minimal discomfort and, more often than not, return for repeat procedures when needed.
So, before you rule out a P-Shot procedure, let’s find out exactly what is involved.
The treatment uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections to repair damaged tissue and promote penile tissue growth. This is because PRP contains cell-regenerating growth factors.
The procedure works by drawing a small amount of your blood and then spinning it at a high frequency within a centrifuge, separating the vital PRP.
Your doctor will then inject the PRP into your penis, and although this might sound uncomfortable, you’ve really got nothing to worry about. The entire procedure is done under local anaesthetic, so no pain is experienced. The skill of your doctor is essential here, and at Elite Aesthetic, Dr Shirin has developed her technique over many years as an anaesthetist. She also uses a blunt cannula to inject the PRP – these are safer and more efficient, and patients can expect far less discomfort and swelling after their treatment.
Another benefit of choosing Elite Aesthetics is we use a specific FDA-approved centrifuge to give the best possible results. We’re one of the few clinics in the UK to use these types of centrifuge for the P-Shot procedure, and for every treatment, we use a ‘double spin’ maximising the benefits.
2. P-Shot Can Help With Libido & ED
There are lots of reasons why men choose to have the P-Shot, and here are some of the things that it can help:
- Erectile dysfunction – A condition that nearly 50% of the male population have or will have in their lifetime.
- Peyronie’s Disease – A condition where scar tissue causes the penis to curve, making sex painful.
- Lichen Sclerosus – A condition characterised by itchy white patches on the genitals or other parts of the body.
- Penis enlargement – By stimulating the growth of new tissue, patients can experience a considerable increase in penis girth. This treatment will not increase penis length. However, it can be combined with other treatments if that is one of your goals – your doctor can talk you through these options during your consultation.
- Enhanced sexual function – Increased blood flow strengthens erections, sensitivity, and libido.
Some men experience immediate results from the P-Shot, while others experience a gradual progression over time. Overall, results tend to last up to 18 months, and the procedure can be repeated when needed.
3. The Right P-Shot Clinic Is Important
The success of this procedure relies on the skill of your chosen practitioner. To ensure that you get the most out of this treatment, you should do your homework on the reliability and experience of your doctor. The technique is vital to ensuring P-Shot works, so you will want to know that you are in safe hands.
Dr Shirin is renowned for her work in intimate health for both women and men. She has over 20 years of experience as a practising GP and is a UK trainer for the P-Shot.
What To Expect After Your P-Shot Procedure
Now you know what to expect before, let’s look at what you can expect following your treatment.
Side Effects
While they are minimal, you might experience slight swelling, mild bruising, and a little tenderness. However, with the use of the blunt cannula, as explained earlier, this should be minimal.
Aftercare
Like all procedures, you should take care of yourself after treatment. The following is recommended:
- Do not engage in any strenuous exercise for 24 hours
- Use a pump to enhance results
- Do not take NSAIDS (ibuprofen, aspirin, etc)
- Use an icepack to reduce any swelling
- Avoid alcohol and smoking for at least one week
- Attend your follow-up appointment 4 and 12 weeks after – this is included if you’ve booked your treatment with Elite Aesthetics.
Next Steps
While the P-Shot procedure uses an injection, it’s relatively painless and long-lasting. It can help with many concerns, such as enhancing sexual pleasure and increasing confidence. The right provider will ensure you get the most from your treatment, and all procedures can be tailor-made to your needs.
