The Priapus Toxin™ Procedure
"Dr. Bowen has been doing the P-Shot® procedure for over ten years with much success and with a significant body of medical research supporting the procedure backing that procedure up.
Over the past eight years, a growing body of research (in animals and people) also supports the effectiveness and safety of injecting the corpus cavernosi of the penis with Botulinum Toxin A. In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled prospective comparative study, the most effective and longest-lasting dose for improvement of erection firmness was 100 units of BOTOX, in total (50 units into each corpus cavernosi). This dose showed effectiveness up to 6 months with maximal effect at 6 weeks.
The mechanism of action of botulinum toxin in the penis seems to be partly due to the relaxation of the smooth muscle of the arterioles, resulting in increased blood flow (and even a small increase in length in one study). This increase in erection firmness by increasing arterial flow is exactly how Viagra and Tri-mix injections work. In two separate studies, the injection of botulinum toxin was helpful to some men (not all) for whom Viagra and Cialis had quit working.
Botulinum toxin (at doses much higher than 100 units) has been used for two decades for various problems with an extremely safe history.
The Priapus Toxin™ procedure is a specific method of injecting blood-derived growth factors, including platelet-rich plasma (or platelet-rich fibrin matrix) and botulinum toxin, to improve the health of the penis and enhance the size or function of the penis. The procedure includes patient selection, method of preparation of materials, method of injection, and aftercare.
Dr. Bowen is now offering the P-Shot® (Priapus Shot®) procedure combined with 100 units of Botulinum Toxin A (brand name used is Xeomin). The combination of the two is called the Priapus Toxin™ procedure.
Suppose someone wants Botulinum Toxin A alone injected into the penis, without PRP? Dr. Bowen offers this procedure as well.
