P-Shot vs GainsWave for Erectile Dysfunction

Dr. Madda has spent the last 20 years deeply researching the most effective treatments for erectile dysfunction. Most of his patients receive a combination of the P-shot, Gaineswave, a very specific penile pump, and some also do testosterone optimization. We have found this multi-pronged approach to be very successful in our patient population who deal with ED.

The P-Shot

The Priapus Shot, or the P-Shot, works by using your body’s natural healing process to improve blood flow to the penis. This non-surgical procedure uses platelet-rich plasma (PRP) derived from your very own blood to stimulate tissue regeneration. PRP stimulates the production of new, healthy cells in the penis, helping to improve sexual performance and pleasure.

Benefits of P-shot may be~

1. Minimally invasive but very effective procedure

2. Utilizes the body’s natural healing process – tissue-derived growth factors from your own body

3. May enhance sexual performance – increases blood supply and also sensitivity to the area

4. May increase penis size – this is not our goal of the therapy as we prefer to focus on function. However, it can be a subtle added benefit.

5. May improve urinary incontinence

GainsWave Procedure

GainsWave is a shockwave therapy treatment that addresses one of the potential causes of erectile dysfunction by breaking down micro plaque in the blood vessels of the penis. This non-invasive, painless procedure uses high-frequency, low-intensity acoustic waves to stimulate the growth of new blood vessels and improve overall blood flow within the penile tissues.

Benefits of GainsWave therapy~

1. Non-invasive procedure

2. No drugs or needles involved

3. Provides lasting results- this may take a series of treatments on occasion

4. Improves sexual performance for most

5. Treats Peyronie’s Disease (curvature of the penis)

6. May enhance sexual sensation for most

Key Differences with P-Shot vs. GainsWave

1. Methodology: P-Shot utilizes platelet-rich plasma therapy, which involves drawing the patient’s blood, extracting the PRP, and injecting it into the penis. GainsWave employs acoustic shockwave therapy to send waves through the penile tissues.  Together, they work best!
2. Invasiveness: While P-Shot is minimally invasive and requires a blood draw and a small injection, GainsWave is entirely non-invasive and involves only the application of shockwaves.
3. Target Outcomes: While both treatments aim to improve erectile function, each offers unique benefits. In combination, they both provide a more encompassing treatment.
