Restore your sexual satisfaction and performance to transform your life!
At Alchemy Wellness, we account for the “whole you,” all aspects of yourself and life that can either hold you back or lift you to new heights of self-fulfillment, health, and well-being. Our practice in Central Austin, Texas, is led by Dr. Saima Jehangir, an accomplished gynecologist and obstetrician with an unwavering passion and commitment to holistic healing. Dr. Jehangir appreciates the impact that sexual health can have on our overall health and wellness, as well as on relationships and intimacy with those closest to us. She offers many trailblazing procedures and services to restore sexual satisfaction, including PRP shots for erectile dysfunction.
Get to know the PRP shot
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common problem. It is associated with limited blood flow and can interfere with a man’s ability to achieve or keep a firm erection.
PRP refers to “platelet rich plasma.” Platelets are the stuff in our blood that helps it to clot. It also contains special substances, cytokines, and growth factors that support tissue repair and healing. We can use a patient’s blood to produce plasma rich in beneficial platelets. Then, we precisely, painlessly, and safely inject PRP to encourage the growth of new tissue and otherwise revitalize the penis. Our patients (and their partners!) have enjoyed an improved sex life thanks to firmer, more frequent, and longer-lasting erections. By increasing blood flow, PRP shots can also boost the length and girth of the penis for enhanced sexual pleasure.
The process
Yes. We refer to “shots” here but rest assured, the procedure is well tolerated. A numbing topical is applied to the penis and testicles. So you won’t feel anything during the injections. We also take additional steps to ensure your utmost comfort. It truly is a painless process!
To prepare the PRP injections, we typically draw blood from the forearm and then put it in a centrifuge that quickly spins the sample. This centrifugal motion helps us to retrieve platelets, which are then applied to the left and right of your penis. You may feel a bit of pressure as the PRP is introduced, but that’s it. We’ll provide you with instructions on “after-care,” and you’ll be given a penis pump for home use. This encourages blood flow and helps the treatment results to take full effect.
The many benefits
The PRP shot takes just 15 minutes. Additionally, it requires no downtime. You can get back to your busy schedule in no time. In fact, most men resume sexual activity the same day as the procedure. It is not invasive, and due to the autologous nature of PRP (derived from your body’s own blood), treatment is not risky. There is no worry of adverse reactions or negative responses. While the PRP shot is low risk, it is also high reward – as patients report significantly enhanced sexual performance and sensitivity and the improved confidence that accompanies longer-lasting, firmer erections and enhanced penile length and girth.
