THE P-SHOT IN DRAPER, UTAH

WHAT THE P-SHOT IS AND HOW IT WORKS

Platelet-rich plasma has been used in orthopedics, wound care, and dermatology for years on a straightforward premise: platelets carry concentrated growth factors, and placing those growth factors into tissue can support the body's own repair processes. The Priapus Shot applies that premise to penile tissue. We draw a small volume of your blood, spin it in-office to separate and concentrate the platelet fraction, and inject the preparation under topical anesthetic.

The appointment takes about an hour from arrival to departure, most of which is the blood draw, the preparation time, and letting the numbing cream take full effect. The injection itself is brief. Because the material is autologous, there is no risk of an allergic reaction to a donor product and nothing to take home and remember to use. Most men drive themselves home and return to normal activity the same day, with any mild swelling settling within a day or two.

Results build gradually rather than immediately, which is the part men are most often not told upfront. Growth-factor-mediated tissue change happens over weeks, not overnight, and response varies considerably with the underlying cause of your symptoms. Men whose ED is primarily vascular and relatively recent tend to see more benefit than men with severe, long-standing, or neurologically driven symptoms. Regenerative treatment for ED is an area where the literature is still maturing, and we will say so plainly rather than promise you a fixed outcome.

The P-Shot is often most useful as part of a sequence rather than in isolation. Pairing it with a course of low-intensity shockwave therapy — which works on blood-vessel growth — and Priapus Toxin, which addresses smooth-muscle tone, is the reasoning behind the ED Trifecta. At your free consultation we will tell you whether the P-Shot alone is a sensible starting point for you or whether the combined protocol is the better use of your money.
