Botox (also known as botulinum neurotoxin) is a neuromodulator produced by the bacterium clostridium A.
Botox works by temporarily relaxing the smooth muscle in the walls of the blood vessels carrying blood to the penis, thereby significantly increasing blood flow.
It works by blocking the nerve impulses sent to the vessel walls, which are normally in a constricted state.
After the Botox they are left in a relaxed state with a wider diameter so they are able to carry a greater volume of blood, thereby improving erections.
Published studies have demonstrated the effectiveness and safety of Botox in the treatment of Erectile Dysfunction (ED).

How Therapeutic Botox Works
A tiny needle is used to administer the Botox into the penis. The clinical impact is that the patient’s erection becomes stronger, harder, and longer lasting. Men can expect to see the effect begin about two weeks after the injection is administered and it lasts for about 4 months. At that time another long lasting injection can be administer
The Botox Treatment Procedure for ED
Botox works by blocking nerve signals that cause muscle contraction. As a result, the injected muscle will relax and no longer contract.
Neuromodulator injections could be especially effective in those who do not respond well to pharmacological agents such as PDE5Is (Viagra/Cialis) and higher dose Trimix injections.
Once Botox is injected, the effects can last 3-4 months.
