In summary, Li-SWT is used for the formation of new blood vessels in the penis with shock wave therapy and the male genitalia is re-hardened. So with Li-SWT, penile stem cells are activated and blood flow starts again. This application can be easily applied to all men who have mild, moderate and severe erection problems.
Li-SWT Therapy
For a successful and sustainable erection, an increase in the amount of blood entering the penis through the veins is necessary. As a result of the narrowing of the vessels coming to the penis due to various reasons, the erection problem arises as a result of the inability of sufficient blood to enter the penis for erection.
Impotence, known as Erectile Dysfunction, is the inability to initiate or maintain the erection necessary for sexual intercourse. Vascular disease, also known as atherosclerosis, is the underlying cause of 70% of people with Erectile Dysfunction.
The most common vascular diseases are Heart Coronary Artery Disease and Diabetes, however, all diseases involving the vessels may occur with Erectile Dysfunction. Atherosclerosis, which affects the coronary vessels in the heart, also affects all other vessels of the body, penile vessels being one of them.
One of the most common diseases among vascular diseases is Diabetes. Diabetes is a disease that affects all the fine capillaries of the body, including the penile vessels. For this reason, Erectile Dysfunction is definitely seen in early or late period in Diabetics.
The most important factors that trigger and advance vascular disease or atherosclerosis are smoking, high cholesterol and lipid levels in the blood.
In addition, Erectile Dysfunction is frequently seen as a side effect of many medical drugs used in the treatment of various diseases.
Contrary to popular belief, Erectile Dysfunction is a very common complaint. It occurs intermittently or continuously in 2 out of every 3 men over the age of 40.
Shock wave therapy (Li-SWT), on the other hand, is at our disposal as a safe and useful option for vascular problems, which are determined to be of organic origin, and which are frequently encountered in diabetics. In the first-line treatment approach for erectile dysfunction, we can now prefer this instead of pill treatment. With pill treatment, complaints are tried to be resolved only during the period of use, while permanent benefits are provided with Li-SWT treatment. The benefit of this treatment varies depending on the response of the body. For this reason, patients should be informed about the success of the treatment and the procedure should be performed with state-of-the-art devices.
Recently, P-Shot therapy has entered the literature. PRP (platelet rich plasma) treatment, which is used in many areas, has also started to be applied to the penis. While PRP can be applied alone for 2-4 sessions, it has been scientifically proven that performing P-Shot once a month while performing Li-SWT increases the success in erection treatment.
