Benefit from the P-Shot
Are you having difficulty achieving or maintaining an erection adequate for a satisfying sex life? If so, then the P-Shot may be right for you. This treatment involves extracting plasma from the blood and injecting it into the penis. This will help heighten a man’s sexual arousal and enhance tissue growth that contributes to improved erections. The P-shot is also effective for Peyronie’s disease, a condition signified by the development of scar tissue that causes the penis to curve when it’s erect. Contact Dr. Fontaine of Fontaine MD Aesthetics and Anti-Aging Medicine in San Diego, CA to ask about the P-Shot.
Am I A Candidate for the P-Shot?
Because the P-Shot utilizes PRP (platelet-rich plasma) and does not involve surgical procedures or significant rest time after the treatment, most patients may be well-suited candidates for this treatment. It might also be an appropriate solution for individuals who can't use prescription ED drugs or have penile fibrosis. Usually candidates for a P-Shot are not able to obtain erections, experience weak or lackluster erections, and keep excellent comprehensive wellness. When you come for your consultation at Fontaine MD, our team will listen to your problems and review your health record to determine whether you should get the P-Shot.
Preparing for the P-Shot Procedure
The P-Shot is an outpatient procedure in which you’re able to return home soon after it is completed. In the time leading up to the procedure, it’s advisable to have a full set of laboratory tests to make sure that you’re in good physical health. It’s important that you have healthy blood, plasma, and platelets. We’ll provide you with detailed instructions to help you prepare for the procedure and an overview of what to expect during your consultation.
The Benefits of the P-Shot Treatment
The P-Shot is an excellent treatment that can help men who are struggling with erectile dysfunction. It’s minimally invasive and can provide several great benefits, including:
- Increased sexual stamina
- Better erections
- Increased sexual stimulation
- Improved circulation in the penis
During the procedure, we’ll administer a topical anesthetic to make sure that you won’t feel any pain during the treatment process. There is no downtime associated with the P-Shot and patients will begin to see and feel the initial results in about 3 weeks.
The P-shot is also effective for Peyronie’s disease. For more information, call Fontaine MD Aesthetics and Anti-Aging Medicine. And remember, you are not alone.
P-Shot FAQ with Dr. Fontaine
What is the P-Shot?
The P-Shot is a minimally invasive, non-surgical procedure for erectile dysfunction which may provide the following benefits:
- Increased circulation within the penis for a healthier organ
- Improved erection firmness and length
- Make other therapies work better if still needed (Viagra, Cialis)
- Increased sexual stamina
- Increased sensation
How does the P-Shot work?
The P-Shot is a regenerative medicine procedure that helps to regenerate damaged vascular tissue involved in erectile function.
Are you a good candidate for the P-Shot?
The P-Shot is recommended for men of all ages. You are a good candidate if:
- You are not satisfied with the quality of your erection
- You want increased sensitivity and increased girth
- You take ED medications or don’t want to have to take a pill every time you have intercourse
- ED medications are no longer effective
- You have Peyronie’s disease
Is the procedure painful?
No. The areas that are injected are pre-treated with a topical anesthetic numbing cream. You may feel a slight pinching sensation and pressure that can be odd, but not necessarily painful. Most patients describe this procedure as being pain-free or causing slight discomfort.
How long does the procedure take?
The actual injection takes only a few minutes. However, the entire procedure takes about an hour for a blood draw, preparation, time for the numbing cream, and aftercare instructions.
Do I need to have a "problem" in order to receive the P-Shot?
No. Some men have the P-Shot with the goal of obtaining improved overall sexual enhancement with better erections and firmness.
How long does it take for the P-Shot to work?
One typically starts seeing results within 3 weeks, but it may take up to 3 months to achieve maximal results.
What is the downtime with the P-Shot?
There is no downtime with the P-Shot. You may resume sexual activity immediately following the P-shot.
Does the P-Shot work for Peyronie's disease?
Yes. Peyronie’s disease is a curve of the penis due to fibrous scar tissue formation inside the penis. This causes painful erections. The P-Shot has been very successful in treating Peyronie’s disease.
What is the cost of the P-Shot?
The P-Shot costs $1,800 which includes a penis pump that will be used at home following the procedure for maximal results.
Are there other treatment options for erectile dysfunction?
Yes, we offer medication management and Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT), commercially known as GAINSWave. This treatment uses high-frequency acoustical wave therapy. When applied to the male genitals, ESWT breaks up micro-plaque in blood vessels often associated with diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and atherosclerosis. TheShockwave Therapy stimulates the growth of new blood vessels, resulting in improved blood flow to obtain stronger and more sustainable erections. *Individual results may vary
Fontaine MD Reviews
Dr. Fontaine is my hero! I've been seeing Dr. Fontaine for a few years. Through his exceptional care, I went from being post menopausal, low energy, overweight, and irritable, back to being a much healthier, happier and productive version of myself. As a incredible bonus, due to Dr. Fontaine's catching a kidney function issue on my bloodwork, and finally impressing upon me the importance of following up on the issue, we found a huge, previously unknown kidney stone blocking my kidney and I ended up at Kaiser having emergency surgery, which saved my kidney. Needless to say, Dr. Fontaine is an exceptional medical care provider and I'm very lucky to be his patient.
I had a great experience with nurse Louise. I received a medical grade facial and skincare regimen. The facial was relaxing and my skin felt so smooth after. I purchased Zo skin health exfoliating polish which is a game changer along with redness reducing rozatrol and Alastin sunscreen that makes my face look flawless. Louise was so kind and attentive to my concerns. I will definitely be back to see her soon.
I have received botox for a long time. Most recently I stayed at Fontaine MD when Sarah came on board: Never have I had a more professional, warm, friendly, and kind person, Sarah, treat these awful lines all over my face and turn me into something so much more stunning. We are working together to do a laser treatment soon and I cannot wait. Sarah is just the best, and I can't recommend her more highly. My life is better now that she's helping make me feel good about myself. Thanks Sarah and the team at Fontaine <3
I came to Dr Fontaine about 2 years ago, exhausted after fighting with my PCP about my thyroid levels. I was really needing someone who was able to listen to me about how awful I was feeling and to help me through the next stage in my life. Not only did Dr Fontaine listen but also provide tailored care specific to my needs. I cannot emphasize how much he has improved my quality of life helping me not only with my thyroid levels but also with my peri-menopausal symptoms. I now can sleep through the night, got rid of my bloat, and significantly decreased any hormonal side effects of this delicate stage. He has made my life so much more vibrant and full of energy! I highly recommend him to anyone interested in wanting to optimize their health so that their next stage can be the best it can be!! Thank you Dr Fontaine and all of your amazing & kind staff!! Molly
Is there a 10-star rating?! Working with Dr. Fontaine has changed my life. I'm a 47-year old woman in the throes of peri-menopause. At the time of my first appointment I was desperate for help and to be heard. My emotions, moods and energy levels had bottomed out, I was having hot flashes and extreme night sweats, was experiencing insane fluctuations in weight and bloating and generally just felt like an alien had taken over my body and mind. Counsel from my primary care physician (a woman! In her 50s!) was "Welcome to your mid-40s" and "maybe consider going back on birth control to level out your hormones." It was RIDICULOUS! I was so frustrated and disheartened. I began reading/learning more about bio-identical HRT and felt like I had nothing to lose by trying it. Enter Dr. Fontaine and his amazing team!! My first appointment + discussion with Dr. Fontaine was 90 minutes and super fruitful. To hear him say "you're not crazy, this is real" was so affirming! After a lot of dialogue and reviewing bloodwork he recommended a treatment plan of a change in my Thyroid medication (which was so, so poorly prescribed. He was like "I don't know who put you on this in the first place, and why different doctors over the years have just blindly renewed it, but this dosage is doing you more harm than good") and then a regimen of testosterone and progesterone as well as a couple additional supplements for minerals/vitamins I was low in. Within the first 14 days I felt like a new person. The hot flashes and night sweats were the first thing to improve and that alone changed everything! Over the next couple of weeks my energy, sleep, moods and weight became more consistent. It's been 6 months now and I feel like I have reclaimed my life. I can't say I'm peri-menopause-symptom-free (new stuff pops up all the time that is confusing... period-symptoms but no period for months, fluctuating energy and fatigue that mimics a menstruation cycle but without menstruation, mid-life blues, blah blah) but I can say that I feel 150% better than I did when I started. Run - don't walk - to Dr. Fontaine!
