What is the Sexual Wellness O-Shot for women?
Many women struggle with or desire an enhanced, intimate experience. The O-Shot is a nonsurgical, sexual wellness injection to increase sensitivity and stimulation using Platelet-Rich-Plasma (PRP). The nutrient-rich platelets (drawn from your blood) promote the growth of new cells and increase blood flow to the vaginal and clitoral areas.
Am I a candidate for the O-shot?
You may be a candidate if you are experiencing pain during intercourse, an overactive bladder, urinary incontinence, low sex drive, vaginal atrophy, dryness, or laxity.
How does the procedure work?
Topical numbing cream and lidocaine injections help eliminate pain and make the procedure tolerable. Your Registered Nurse Injector will then draw your blood, put it in a centrifuge to isolate the PRP, and prepare it for injection while you are numbing. You can expect your O-shot appointment to last about an hour, but the procedure itself takes minutes.
What is the downtime for the O-Shot?
The O-Shot requires zero downtime. Patients can experience heightened sexual sensation and sexual arousal in as little as 3-7 days after their procedure. Full effects may take up to 3 months, depending on the individual.
