Shockwave Therapy (Li-ESWT) in Houston

Low-intensity shockwave therapy (Li-ESWT) uses focused acoustic energy to stimulate blood-vessel growth and improve circulation in penile tissue. This innovative approach offers a natural, medication-free option for men with vascular erectile dysfunction (ED) who prefer to restore performance without injections or pills. At The Y Factor, our experienced men’s health providers deliver in-office shockwave sessions designed to enhance blood flow, sensitivity, and erectile response with no anesthesia and no downtime.

Drug-free, non-invasive treatment to improve penile blood flow and erectile function.

What It Is

Low-intensity extracorporeal shockwave therapy (Li-ESWT) delivers controlled acoustic pulses to the penile shaft and crura, promoting neovascularization (new blood-vessel formation) and improving endothelial function.

Who It’s For

  • Men with vasculogenic erectile dysfunction (blood-flow-related)
  • Those seeking a drug-free or adjunct therapy to medication or TRT
  • Patients with mild to moderate ED or diminished response to PDE5 inhibitors
  • Men interested in optimizing penile vascular health and long-term function

How It Works

Treatment is performed entirely in-office using a handheld device that delivers low-energy acoustic waves across targeted areas.
Typical protocol: 6–12 short sessions, each lasting 15–20 minutes, spaced weekly or biweekly depending on the clinical plan.

The therapy increases penile blood flow, supports tissue repair, and enhances responsiveness to natural or medication-assisted erections.

What to Expect

  • Non-invasive, no anesthesia required
  • No downtime — resume normal activity immediately
  • Mild temporary soreness or redness may occur
  • Progressive improvement over several weeks as new vessels form

Evidence and Considerations

Clinical studies show that Li-ESWT can improve erectile function in men with vasculogenic ED by enhancing penile hemodynamics and endothelial health.
However, results vary, and the therapy is not FDA-cleared specifically for erectile dysfunction. Individual outcomes depend on age, vascular status, and underlying health conditions.
