Peyronie’s disease treatment with Perovial
Peyronie’s disease affects male sexual function, caused by the formation of fibrous plaques that lead to penile curvature.
To address this condition, especially in its acute phase, it is crucial to have timely treatment that prevents progression and mitigates symptoms.
At Andrología Mallorca, we offer Perovial, an innovative treatment approved by the European Medicines Agency (EMA), specifically designed for the active phase of Peyronie’s disease.
What is Perovial?
Perovial is an injectable medical device composed of high-purity hyaluronic acid (0.8%), which acts directly on the fibrous plaques, helping to reduce penile curvature, relieve pain, and improve the elasticity of the tunica albuginea, allowing the affected tissue to regain its flexibility.
How does Perovial work and how is it administered?
Perovial works through the hydrating and antifibrotic properties of hyaluronic acid, reducing plaque rigidity and promoting tissue remodeling, thus improving skin elasticity.
Its antioxidant action also helps to reduce inflammation and oxidative stress, contributing to the improvement of curvature and sexual function.
The treatment is administered through intralesional injections weekly between 8 and 12 sessions, tailored to the size and location of the plaques, ensuring an effective and personalized therapy performed by a specialized urologist or andrologist.
Benefits of Perovial treatment
The treatment with Perovial offers several advantages over other alternatives:
1
Effective local action
Hyaluronic acid acts directly on the plaques, improving flexibility and reducing curvature.
2
Prevention of progression
It halts progressive curvature and alleviates pain.
3
Minimally invasive treatment
Administered via intralesional injections.
Possibles side effects of Perovial
Although the treatment with Perovial has a favorable safety profile, some mild side effects may occur:
Pain or sensitivity at the injection site.
Temporary redness or swelling.
Rare inflammatory reactions at the injection site.
This approach is particularly recommended by urologists specializing in Peyronie’s disease in Spain, especially for patients who wish to pursue early-stage treatments before considering surgery or other more invasive interventions.
When is Perovial suitable?
Perovial is indicated for adult men with Peyronie’s disease in the acute phase, especially those who have:
- Progressive penile curvature.
- Pain during erections.
- Difficulty maintaining erections or sexual function.
If you experience these symptoms, Perovial can be an excellent option to reduce curvature and pain, without the need for surgical interventions.
At Andrología Mallorca, we design a personalized treatment plan for Peyronie’s disease, using Perovial as a non-invasive option. If you suspect you have symptoms, contact us for a diagnosis and guidance.
