Honey-shot®: 10 Minutes to a Better Sex Life

So many things can take a toll on a woman’s sex life and sexual satisfaction. Childbirth can damage pelvic tissues and cause vaginal laxity. The hormonal swings of menopause can lower libido, decrease lubrication and make sex painful. Disorders can make arousal and orgasm difficult. Or maybe a woman has just never felt sexually alive. Now, there is a female sexual enhancement treatment that can address many of the issues that make sex blah, boring, painful or not even on the “to do” list.

What is Honey-shot®?

The Honey-Shot® is an all-natural, virtually painless non-surgical female sexual enhancement procedure that for many women rejuvenates and revitalizes vaginal and clitoral function, raising libido while improving arousal and orgasms.

How Does Honey-shot® Work?

Honey-Shot® uses growth platelets derived from the patient’s own blood to stimulate tissue rejuvenation and improved response in the areas associated with sexual pleasure, including the clitoris and the upper portion of the vagina. New tissue growth and sensitivity creates female sexual enhancement.

What Issues Can the Honey-shot® Treat?

Sexual health is complicated and involves mind and body. But the first step toward female sexual enhancement and better sexual health is making sure the body is primed, healthy and receptive to sexual activity.

An estimated 1 in 20 women face Female Sexual Arousal Disorder at some point in their lives. While they are willing and able to have sex, they have difficulties with arousal, pleasure and reaching orgasm. About 5% of women experience Female Orgasmic Disorder, and can become aroused but have difficulty reaching orgasm.

The Honey-Shot® can help improve:

• Lichen sclerosis
• Lichen planus
• Postpartum fecal incontinence
• Chronic pain from trauma from childbirth (episiotomy scars)
• Chronic pain from mesh

What Can I Expect During Honey-shot® Treatment?

Before your provider advises any treatment, you’ll have a thorough medical consultation to determine if the Honey-Shot® is the best answer to your concerns.

First, the doctor or nurse applies a numbing cream to the vagina and the arm. Blood is drawn from the arm as it would be for any blood test. Then, using a centrifuge and a unique method, platelet-rich plasma with the resultant growth factors is isolated.

Using a very thin needle, the provider injects the growth factors into the clitoris and the upper vaginal areas most closely associated with arousal and orgasm.

What is the Honey-shot® Recovery Time?

Because injections are minimally invasive, Honey-Shot® has a fast recovery time. Your provider can give you full information about recovery times and after care.

What Are the Benefits of Honey-shot®?

Women who may benefit from Honey-Shot® are interested in:

• Increased sensitivity
• Tighter vaginal skin
• Increased desire
• Better, healthier sex

When Will I See the Benefits?

Some women experience an increased sex drive and ability to orgasm the same day. Urinary incontinence may also improve in the days following the treatment. Honey-Shot® should reach it’s full effectiveness in two to three weeks.

How Long Do the Effects of Honey-shot® Last?

Honey-Shot® lasts up to three years or longer in some women. The average period of effectiveness is about 18 months.
