Peyronie’s Disease is a condition in which there is a development of fibrous scar tissue inside the penis, leading to curved, painful erections. This scar tissue can cause a significant bend or deformity in the penis, often making sexual intercourse difficult or impossible.
Peyronie’s Disease can severely affect an individual’s self-esteem and sexual health by leading to anxiety, embarrassment, and erectile dysfunction. The exact cause is believed to result from penile injury, possibly during sexual activity, and can lead to problems related to genetics and connective tissue disorders.
Thankfully, regenerative medicine offers promising treatments to repair tissue, reduce scarring, and improve penile function.

“The ideal candidate is an individual with mild to moderate curvature and symptoms persisting for less than one year. They should have good overall health, without severe comorbidities like uncontrolled diabetes. They may have symptoms of erectile dysfunction and are seeking to prevent long-term damage.
Candidates should be open to undergoing minimally invasive treatments and seeking alternatives to surgery. They should be motivated to improve their sexual health through innovative treatments like injections or low-intensity extracorporeal therapy.”
Your doctor may suggest the use of any of these treatments or a combination thereof.
The P-Shot®, or Priapus Shot, is a minimally invasive treatment aimed at reducing scar tissue, alleviating penile curvature, and improving erectile quality and duration to restore confidence and sexual function. Derived from the patient’s own blood, a healthcare professional injects Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) into specific areas of the penis. PRP is rich in growth factors that stimulate tissue regeneration to improve blood flow and promote new blood vessel growth.
The efficacy of PRP therapy hinges significantly on the quality of the PRP produced. Several factors influence PRP quality, including the concentration of platelets, the presence of white blood cells, and the activation method employed.
Each patient will receive a personalized consultation prior to beginning their PRP treatment plan.
Most patients report minimal discomfort during PRP injections. The sensation is often described as a slight prick or pressure. Topical numbing cream or local anesthesia can be used to further minimize any discomfort.
The longevity of PRP results varies depending on the specific treatment area and individual factors. Generally, patients can expect to enjoy the benefits of PRP therapy for several months to a year or longer. Maintenance treatments may be recommended to sustain optimal results.
While PRP therapy is generally safe and well-tolerated, it may not be suitable for individuals with certain medical conditions, such as bleeding disorders, active infections, or cancer. It’s essential to consult with a qualified healthcare professional to determine if PRP therapy is right for you.
The Arthrex ACP Double Syringe system embodies excellence in PRP therapy, consistently delivering high-quality PRP that meets the most stringent standards. Its innovative design, coupled with its focus on safety, simplicity, and speed, makes it the preferred choice for healthcare professionals seeking optimal PRP outcomes. By choosing the Arthrex ACP Double Syringe system, you can rest assured that you’re receiving the gold standard in PRP therapy, maximizing the potential for successful tissue regeneration and healing.
Shockwave Therapy is an innovative treatment that uses low-intensity extracorporeal shockwaves to improve sexual health. Initially used for healing bone fractures and treating damaged tendons and ligaments, this therapy has been adapted to address erectile dysfunction and penile curvature while breaking down scar tissue.
During the treatment, a healthcare professional uses a wand-like device to deliver focused acoustic waves to the penis. These waves trigger biological reactions that release angiogenic factors, promoting neovascularization and enhancing blood flow to the penile tissue.

– Penile prostheses
– Coagulation disorders (prior clarification of the coagulation status may be necessary)
– Hypogonadism
– Taking blood-thinning medication

The P-Shot is a minimally invasive treatment that involves injecting PRP derived from the patient’s own blood into penile tissues. The science behind the P-Shot lies in PRP’s high concentration of growth factors, which promote tissue regeneration and healing. When injected, PRP increases blood flow and enhances nerve function in the targeted areas, leading to strengthened penile tissues and a straighter penis.
Shockwave Therapy:
Shockwave Therapy for Peyronie’s Disease uses low-intensity extracorporeal shockwaves, which are acoustic waves generated by a device and focused on targeted areas of the penis. These shockwaves induce a cascade of biological responses, including the release of growth factors and stimulation of neovascularization. This process promotes the formation of new blood vessels and improves blood flow to the penile tissue, ultimately enhancing function and shape.
