When injected into the tissues, it releases growth factors that stimulate vascular and tissue regeneration."},{"question":"What are the indications in urology?","answer":"PRP is used primarily in erectile dysfunction (P-Shot) and Peyronie's disease, where it helps to soften fibrotic plaque and improve the quality of erections."},{"question":"Is the session painful?","answer":"No. After application of an anesthetic cream, the injection is barely felt. The complete session (sampling, centrifugation, injection) lasts approximately 30 minutes, during a consultation, with immediate resumption of activities."},{"question":"How many sessions are needed and what results can be expected?","answer":"The usual protocol involves 2 to 4 sessions spaced a few weeks apart. Since PRP is derived from your own blood, it is very well tolerated. Results appear gradually over 1 to 3 months and vary from patient to patient."},{"question":"Is it painful?","answer":"No. The injections are performed under local anesthesia. Moderate discomfort may occur for 24\u201348 hours."},{"question":"How many sessions are needed?","answer":"Generally, 3 to 6 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart are offered, followed by a clinical check-up."},{"question":"Does PRP replace drug treatments?","answer":"No, it is a complementary or alternative treatment depending on the cause of the dysfunction. The initial urological assessment helps define the best strategy."},{"question":"What are the risks?","answer":"Side effects are rare and mild: redness, bruising, or transient discomfort. No systemic side effects have been reported."},{"question":"When will the results appear?","answer":"Generally after 2 to 3 sessions, with a progressive improvement in the quality of erections or the flexibility of the penis."}],"benarroche_sidebar_rdv_title":"","benarroche_doctor_band_title":"","benarroche_doctor_band_text":"","benarroche_doctor_band_points":null,"benarroche_doctor_band_image":"","benarroche_page_cta_title":"","benarroche_page_cta_text":"","benarroche_closing_highlights":null,"benarroche_blocks":[{"acf_fc_layout":"image_text_block","eyebrow":"","title":"PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) injections","content":"What is PRP ? <strong>PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma)<\/strong> is a <strong>regenerative medicine<\/strong> technique that uses the patient's own platelets to stimulate tissue repair and regeneration.
