Male Sexual Health with Dr. Gina Haeussner, M.D. at Ageless Expressions
Erectile dysfunction (ED) is a common condition among men, becoming more frequent with age. Research shows that one-third of men over 40 and up to 70% of men over 70 experience ED. Given that male sexual arousal involves a complex interplay between the brain, hormones, emotions, nerves, muscles, and blood vessels, any issue along these pathways may contribute to erectile dysfunction.
Risk Factors for Erectile Dysfunction
Several factors can increase the risk of developing ED:
- Diabetes
- Heart Disease
- Tobacco Use
- Obesity
- Certain Medical Treatments (e.g., prostate surgery, radiation therapy)
- Nerve or Artery Injuries (near the penis)
- Medications (e.g., antidepressants, blood pressure medication)
- Psychological Factors (e.g., anxiety, depression)
- Substance Abuse (drug and alcohol use)
Comprehensive ED Treatment Options
Ageless Expressions MedSpa is dedicated to helping you regain vitality and quality of life with state-of-the-art treatments. Two of our most effective treatments include the BoCox® injection and Priapus therapy (P-Shot®). Additionally, we offer an innovative procedure called GAINSWave®.
BoCox®: Botox for ED
The BoCox® treatment uses botulinum toxin (Botox®) injected directly into the penis to relax muscles surrounding the blood vessels. As the penile muscles relax, blood flow improves, leading to stronger erections. BoCox® typically begins to work within three days, reaches its peak after two weeks, and can last for about three months.
Key Benefits of BoCox®
Non-Invasive
Minimal pain and downtime as injections are administered after the penis is numbed.
Combination Therapy
Can be combined with the P-Shot® and/or GAINSWave® treatments for enhanced results.
Minimal Risks
Infection, bleeding, nerve injury, and treatment resistance are rare but taken seriously. We take every precaution to minimize these risks.

Maximize Your BoCox® Results
To ensure you get the most out of your BoCox® procedure, be sure to follow our recommendations. We recommend that you avoid NSAIDs and steroids which can interfere with PRP’s regenerative properties. Tylenol is acceptable. The good news is that there is no sexual downtime. You can resume intercourse once the numbing medication wears off.

FAQs
BoCox® works directly by relaxing the smooth muscles around the penile blood vessels, providing localized benefits. Unlike oral medications that rely on systemic circulation and may have various side effects, BoCox® targets the affected area specifically, offering an option for men who may not respond well to pills or have contraindications.
Yes, both treatments can potentially enhance sexual performance and sensitivity even for men without ED. BoCox® can promote stronger, longer-lasting erections, while the P-Shot® may increase sensitivity and blood flow for improved arousal.
