Black, 53 years old, 5'7", 170lbs, lift weights 3x a week - is P-shot temporary?

Great question!

Yes, the P-Shot is temporary — most men experience benefits for about 12–18 months, though some choose to repeat the treatment every year for maintenance.

Key benefits include:

Stronger, firmer erections

Improved blood flow

Increased sensitivity and pleasure

Better stamina and performance

Help with Peyronie’s disease or mild ED

Hi, I’m Lauren, the aesthetic injector here at Colorado Plastic Surgery Center. Yes, the P-Shot is temporary in its effects and does require maintenance treatments to maintain results. Attached is a link to our website that can provide you with additional information.

Platelet rich plasma will begin to kick in and start working at about 2-3 weeks after the injection and then gradual improvements should occur up to 3-4 months later. Every case of erectile dysfunction is different so responses vary.

While the injection of platelet-rich plasma into the penis may lead to some temporary swelling or inflammation, there is no evidence that it can lead to a permanent increase in penis size. The P-Shot® is primarily marketed as a treatment for sexual dysfunction, including erectile dysfunction (ED), and may improve sexual function in some men.

However, it’s important for patients to approach this treatment with realistic expectations and work with a qualified healthcare provider to determine the best course of action for their individual needs.
