Dr. Wall:
We use Emcyte PRP for erection enhancement P-Shots. The feedback I have about this is really remarkable. I hear many of my patients say it takes them back to when they were in their early 20s in regards to strength and longevity of erection. The caveat I will put on PRP results are that not all PRP is created equal. When investigating which clinic to attend for PRP, I suggest looking at the amount of platelets concentrated per ml. Most inferior PRP concentrating systems have 400-600 thousand platelets per ml. Emcyte PRP has 1.2-1.5 million platelets per ml. To explain how it works, Platelet Rich Plasma treatments harness the natural healing and regenerative capabilities of platelets. In normal physiology, these cells are the first to arrive at the scene of an injury. They help in the clotting process, but play a special role in healing, releasing growth and healing factors. The more platelets, the more growth and healing factors. That is why it is important to choose a device with superior concentrating abilities. Most of my patients choose to have both PRP and Filler phalloplasty as a complete downstairs rejuvenation package.
Dr. Tsay:
Many of our patients combine their penile enhancement with PRP. When that happens, the PRP has regenerative properties, so it increases the quality of the erection, the duration of the erection, and the sensation around the glans.
