What are injection-based treatments for Peyronie’s disease?
Injection-based treatments for Peyronie’s disease may be considered for selected patients, particularly during the early or active stage of the condition. This treatment involves injecting medication directly into the area of scar tissue, or plaque, within the penis with the aim of influencing the structure of the plaque and reducing curvature.
For some patients, injection treatment may help improve symptoms and penile shape, depending on the nature and severity of the condition. Treatment is usually carried out as a course over several sessions, often spaced two to four weeks apart, based on clinical assessment and individual response.

Potential Benefits of Injection-Based Treatments for Peyronie’s Disease
For selected patients, injection-based treatments for Peyronie’s disease may help improve symptoms and penile curvature as part of a tailored management plan. The potential benefits depend on the stage of the condition, the nature of the plaque, and the individual clinical picture.
- May help reduce plaque firmness
- May help improve penile curvature
- May help alleviate discomfort associated with Peyronie’s disease
- May support symptom improvement without immediate surgery
- Can be considered as part of a broader non-surgical treatment approach
Outcomes vary between individuals, and not every patient will respond in the same way. A specialist consultation can help determine whether injection-based treatment may be appropriate in your case.
Is Injection Therapy Right for You?
Injection therapy may be suitable for some patients with Peyronie’s disease, particularly where a non-surgical approach is preferred and the condition is assessed at an earlier stage. Treatment recommendations should always be based on a full assessment by an experienced urologist.
- Early-stage Peyronie’s disease with mild to moderate curvature
- Mild discomfort or pain during erection
- Preference for a non-surgical treatment option
- Interest in a treatment plan that may be combined with PRP treatment or shockwave therapy
- Selected cases where treatment may help delay or reduce the need for surgery
Where appropriate, injection therapy can be considered alongside PRP treatment or shockwave therapy as part of a personalised treatment plan. If you would like to understand which option may be most suitable, a confidential consultation can provide a clearer assessment based on your symptoms and goals.
Procedure Overview
Injection-based treatment for Peyronie’s disease is typically carried out in an outpatient setting and is generally well tolerated. The exact treatment plan can vary depending on the severity of the condition and the clinical assessment.
- Anaesthetic: Local
- Treatment time: Approximately 15–30 minutes
- Number of sessions: Usually 4–8, spaced a few weeks apart
- Recovery: Most patients can resume normal activities shortly afterwards
Some men experience mild discomfort at the injection site, but the procedure is generally well tolerated.
Combining Peyronie’s Disease Injections with Other Treatments
In some cases, injection-based treatment for Peyronie’s disease may be used alongside other therapies as part of a broader treatment plan. This approach can be considered where a combination of treatments is felt to be more appropriate based on the stage of the condition and the patient’s symptoms.
- PRP therapy may be considered as part of a treatment plan aimed at supporting tissue repair
- Shockwave therapy may be used in selected cases where pain relief and tissue stimulation are treatment goals
- Plaque incision and grafting surgery may be considered for patients whose curvature progresses and becomes more established
