The P-Shot (Priapus Shot) is a minimally invasive procedure that uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from your own blood to enhance sexual function and treat erectile dysfunction. The treatment takes about 60 minutes and involves extracting blood, concentrating the platelets, and injecting the PRP into specific areas of the penis to promote tissue regeneration and improved blood flow.

The P-Shot is not painful when performed properly. A topical numbing cream and local anesthetic block are applied before the injection to ensure patient comfort. Most men experience only mild discomfort during the procedure, and any minor side effects like swelling or bruising typically resolve within 4-6 days.

P-Shot recovery is immediate with no downtime required. You can resume normal activities right after the procedure and drive yourself home. Sexual activity can be resumed at any time, as the treatment does not require sexual abstinence like invasive surgical procedures.

P-Shot costs typically range from $1,200 to $2,200 per treatment, though pricing varies by clinic and location. Most health insurance plans do not cover PRP therapy as it's considered experimental. At Germantown Aesthetics, we offer package pricing options. Call (901) 624-5605 for current pricing information.

The P-Shot works by harnessing your body's natural healing mechanisms through platelet-rich plasma therapy. PRP contains concentrated growth factors that stimulate tissue regeneration, improve blood vessel formation, and enhance circulation to penile tissues. This regenerative process can lead to firmer erections, increased sensitivity, and improved sexual performance. Dr. Gregory Laurence uses advanced centrifuge technology to extract the highest concentration of platelets, maximizing the therapeutic benefits. The treatment promotes angiogenesis (new blood vessel growth) which is crucial for healthy erectile function. Unlike temporary solutions, PRP therapy addresses the underlying tissue health for potentially longer-lasting improvements. At Germantown Aesthetics in Memphis, we combine this innovative treatment with comprehensive sexual health evaluation to optimize your results.

Good candidates for the P-Shot include men experiencing mild to moderate erectile dysfunction, those seeking enhancement of sexual performance, or men with Peyronie's disease causing penile curvature. Ideal candidates are generally healthy men who want a natural, non-surgical approach to sexual wellness. The treatment works well for men who haven't responded adequately to oral medications or prefer regenerative medicine approaches. During your consultation at Germantown Aesthetics, Dr. Gregory Laurence will assess your medical history, current medications, and sexual health goals to determine if you're an appropriate candidate. Men with certain blood disorders, active infections, or those taking blood-thinning medications may need special consideration. The autologous nature of PRP therapy means there's minimal risk of allergic reactions since we use your own blood components.

P-Shot benefits include improved erectile function, enhanced sexual performance, increased penile sensitivity, and potential improvements in size and girth through tissue regeneration. Many men report firmer, more sustainable erections and greater sexual satisfaction. The treatment may also help with Peyronie's disease by promoting healing of scar tissue and reducing curvature. Unlike oral medications that provide temporary effects, PRP therapy works at the cellular level to potentially create lasting improvements in penile tissue health. Additional benefits include increased confidence, enhanced pleasure for both partners, and a natural approach using your body's own healing factors. Dr. Gregory Laurence at Germantown Aesthetics has extensive experience in sexual wellness treatments and can help you understand how the P-Shot might benefit your specific situation. Results typically improve over several months as new tissue and blood vessels develop.

P-Shot results can last 12 to 24 months or longer, though individual experiences vary based on age, overall health, and lifestyle factors. Many men notice initial improvements within 24-48 hours, with continued enhancement over 3-6 months as tissue regeneration progresses. The regenerative effects of PRP therapy can provide longer-lasting benefits compared to temporary solutions like oral medications. Some men choose to have maintenance treatments every 12-18 months to sustain optimal results. Dr. Gregory Laurence recommends following up at 3, 6, and 12 months to monitor progress and determine if additional treatments would be beneficial. Factors like cardiovascular health, diabetes management, and lifestyle choices significantly impact both initial results and longevity. At Germantown Aesthetics, we provide comprehensive aftercare guidance to help maximize and maintain your results. Call (901) 624-5605 to discuss your treatment timeline and expectations.

The P-Shot differs from oral ED medications in several key ways. While Viagra and similar drugs provide temporary blood flow enhancement lasting 4-6 hours, the P-Shot works through tissue regeneration for potentially longer-lasting improvements. PRP therapy can be used alongside oral medications for enhanced results, and many men find they need less medication over time. Unlike pills that must be taken before each sexual encounter, the regenerative benefits of the P-Shot work continuously once the healing process is complete. The treatment addresses underlying tissue health rather than just providing temporary symptom relief. Some men who don't respond well to oral medications or experience side effects find the P-Shot to be an excellent alternative. Dr. Gregory Laurence at Germantown Aesthetics can help you understand how the P-Shot might complement or replace your current treatment approach. The natural, autologous approach means fewer systemic side effects compared to pharmaceutical options.

P-Shot side effects are minimal since the treatment uses your own blood components, eliminating risk of allergic reactions. Common minor side effects include temporary swelling, bruising, or mild discomfort at injection sites, typically resolving within 4-6 days. Very rarely, patients may experience minor bleeding or localized infection, though proper sterile technique minimizes these risks. The autologous nature of PRP therapy makes it one of the safest regenerative treatments available. Dr. Gregory Laurence uses advanced sterile processing techniques and follows strict safety protocols to ensure optimal outcomes. Unlike surgical procedures, there's no risk of scarring, permanent damage, or significant complications. Most men tolerate the procedure very well and can resume all normal activities immediately. During your consultation at Germantown Aesthetics, we'll review your medical history to identify any factors that might affect treatment safety. The procedure is performed in our accredited medical facility with board-certified expertise.
