Regain your confidence in the bedroom
For men suffering from erectile dysfunction, the Priapus Shot®, or P-Shot, is another Vampire service we offer at Levitt Medical Aesthetics.
This erectile dysfunction treatment in Albany, OR offers men a drug-free alternative to enhance penile function through stronger erections and enhanced sensation. In this procedure, Dr. Levitt carefully redelivers platelet-rich plasma (PRP) derived from your blood into the penis to increase blood flow and rejuvenate the tissues for a much more satisfying sex life.

How it works
The P-Shot is the male version of the O-Shot®, and is used as an alternative treatment to erectile dysfunction, penis enhancement, and general sexual dysfunction.
The P-shot utilizes platelet rich plasma (PRP) to stimulate the growth of new blood vessels and improve blood flow to the penis. This leads to stronger erections and many men report mild increases in both length and girth. If you continue to use an ED medication like Viagra or Cialis, you will likely need to use less. Since the PRP is produced from your blood with nothing else added, there is no risk of allergic reaction or long term side effects.
Similar to the O-Shot, the P-Shot is a relatively new procedure, so we recommend visiting an established practice like Levitt Medical Aesthetics to ensure you are receiving safe and effective treatment.
Besides treating ED, the P-Shot in Albany, OR also enhances pleasure from sex.
What to expect
Using a topical numbing cream and a nerve block, Dr. Levitt injects the patient’s extracted PRP into erectile tissue to stimulate growth of blood vessels and nerves.
Patients can augment the results at-home with the use of a vacuum erectile device to help strengthen the veins and arteries of the penis, allowing for greater blood flow and decreased venous leak.
The Priapus Shot is also an excellent treatment to help with Peyronie’s disease, a condition affecting 3% to 9% of men over fifty years of age.
A noticeable bend in the penis that can become so severe it impairs function characterizes this disease.
Immediately after your P-Shot erectile dysfunction treatment at our Albany, OR office, you may experience redness and feel increased pressure in your penis.
We consider this normal and it should subside in a few hours. Patients are free to have sexual intercourse the same day as their P-Shot, though they should wait at least 4 hours after the procedure.
The results are long lasting, especially by following our instructions for at-home use of a vacuum penis pump.
Results last between a year or two before additional P-Shots are necessary to maintain the results.
Before & after
FAQ
Men considered suitable candidates for this erectile dysfunction treatment are otherwise healthy individuals ages 35 to 70 wishing to achieve a stronger, firmer, and/or larger erection. However, it’s important to understand that while you may see a modest increase in length or girth with the P-shot, it will not turn an average man into a porn star. Men with an enlarged prostate, or those who had previous issues with prostate cancer, may also be acceptable candidates for the P-Shot. This is especially true if prostate problems are also contributing to erection issues. We do not perform the P-shot on current cigarette smokers.
Using a VED, or Vacuum Erection Device, is essential for achieving optimal success from the procedure. You should do this twice daily. It requires only a few minutes of your time and without it, success rates are usually lower. We will walk you through it the first time.
No two patients are alike. Some may experience an improvement in penile function within 24 hours of receiving the shot, while others may require more P-Shots and time before the results become evident.
The growth factors & proteins released by the high concentration of platelets in PRP activate stems cells and stimulate cellular repair and regeneration wherever we apply them in the body. In addition, collagen production and the formation of new blood vessels occur and further aid in tissue repair.
