Low-intensity shockwave therapy for erectile dysfunction
The Men’s Center is the ONLY sexual health clinic in Charleston, SC to feature Focused Shockwave therapy for Erectile Dysfunction.
You might have heard of shockwave therapy treatment for erectile dysfunction, but did you know that what type of shockwave therapy makes all the difference? And chances are, most places offer radial acoustic therapy for ED. But at The Men’s Center in Charleston, SC, we offer the most advanced & effective shockwave therapy out there: focused shockwave therapy. In fact, we’re the only men’s health clinic in Charleston that has this device.
Focused shockwave therapy differs significantly from radial acoustic therapy, with deeper and more precise penetration as well as less (no) discomfort compared to radial therapy. Focused shockwave therapy using the Storz Duolith SD-1 is the most well-studied shockwave therapy for ED and has been demonstrated to be quite effective for mild to moderate ED caused by decreased blood flow, whereas there is much less data to support benefit of radial therapy. The machine required to do focused shockwave therapy is more expensive & requires a licensed medical professional for operation. For those reasons, many doctors opt to purchase a machine that delivers radial acoustic energy.

Your body stopped generating new blood vessels within your penis. Blood vessels are vital to your erections because they are the only channels that deliver blood to your penis. Less channels = less blood, which results in weaker erections.
2
Micro-plaque began to build within these blood vessels – called atherosclerosis. As you age, the micro-plaque within your vessels continues to build up & acts like a dam to restrict blood flow. More micro-plaque build-up = less blood passing through. Because of this, men in their thirties may begin to notice that their erections aren’t as robust as they used to be. Ultimately, this leads to ED.
Blood flow is the key to good erections.
F.A.Q.
Shockwave therapy stimulates the process of angiogenesis, which is a fancy term for growth of new blood vessels. It also opens existing blood vessels in the penis, stimulates the growth of new blood vessels, & eliminates micro-plaque. The result is increased blood in the penis resulting in stronger, harder, & more sustainable erections.
Unlike other “Male Enhancement” Procedures, Shockwave Therapy:
-Is drug & surgery free
-Is completely non-invasive
-Is a simple in-office procedure, with each treatment taking only 20–30 minutes
-Provides long lasting results with no downtime
-Addresses the root cause of ED: poor blood flow
Clinical studies have generally demonstrated shockwave therapy to be effective and safe. Side effects are rare and usually mild, but can include pain at the treatment site, bruising, blood in the urine, painful erection or penile curvature.
Most people see benefit in 1-3 months, and the initial results can be dramatic. Effects have been medically proven to last 2- 3 years.
Depending on your goals, anywhere from 6–12 treatments.
Life can be hard. You can be too.
No! You don’t have to be suffering from ED, or any other medical condition, to benefit from this treatment. Shockwave therapy can help most men with:
-Enhanced Erections & Rigidity (thicker & fuller appearance)
-Improved Sexual Performance
-Increased Sensation in the Penis
-More Spontaneous Erections
The Men’s Center is proud to be affiliated with Gainswave® . Gainswave provides valuable education & marketing services to help doctors adopt exciting new technologies. It is important to understand that Gainswave is not the technology itself. Gainswave doctors use a variety of technologies to treat ED, which are not necessarily equivalent.
