It’s very important in modulating the immune system. It has been shown to have a significant benefit in the treatment of Peyronie’s<\/a> in multiple studies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n One of the advantages of Interferon injections is its safety profile. Interferon can be used on any palpable plaque<\/strong> regardless of location. <\/strong><\/p>\n Interferon can be used safely for ventral curvature<\/a> (typically caused by a plaque located close to the urethra) of the penis as well as for dorsal curvature<\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n Important notice: <\/span>Interferon is no longer available in the US as of 2022, as its manufacturing was discontinued for business reasons (not enough sold). It may be available in some other countries.<\/strong><\/p>\n Interferon-a2B has been shown to have a good effect in the treatment of men with Peyronie’s disease in randomized controlled studies. On average, men experience about 9% improvement;<\/strong><\/p>\n Research evidence shows that alpha interferon is effective in mild to moderate cases of Peyronie’s with a curvature up to 70 degrees<\/strong>. The side effects of the injection of interferon are uncommon and may present with flu-like symptoms<\/strong> in some people. Other less common side effects include hematoma, swelling, and edema.<\/p>\n At New York Urology Specialists, we offer treatment for men with Peyronie’s disease.<\/strong> <\/p>\n Call\/text today: 1-646-663-4050<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/strong> or <\/span>make an appointment<\/span><\/a> online. <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n We treat sexual and erection problems<\/a><\/strong> and Peyronie’s disease. We offer comprehensive STD testing<\/a><\/strong> for infections. We treat penile problems in men<\/a><\/strong>, including phimosis, balanitis, penile irritation, and penile redness. We perform a no-scalpel vasectomy<\/strong>, vasectomy reversal, cosmetic circumcision<\/strong><\/a>, circumcision revision<\/a><\/strong>, and penile frenuloplasty.

We offer free insurance verification<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Studies show that men experience the following benefits from Interferon injection into Penile Plaque:<\/p>\n Where Can You Get Interferon Treatment for Peyronie’s disease?<\/p>\n At New York Urology Specialists, we offer interferon injections<\/strong> for the treatment of Peyronie’s disease.<\/p>\n Interferon alpha-2B is administered by direct injection into Peyronie’s plaque<\/strong> similar to how verapamil<\/strong> <\/a>and Xiaflex<\/strong> <\/a>injections are performed.<\/p>\n The procedure is performed in the office under local anesthesia using a penile block<\/strong>, usually bupivacaine or lidocaine. After administration of local anesthetic, intralesional injections of interferon are nearly painless. Local anesthesia also provides pain relief after injection. A compressive dressing wrap is placed on the penis for 12 hours. Some men choose to get the injections without the administration of a local anesthetic.<\/p>\n The treatment schedule<\/strong> involves 6 biweekly injections, which may be repeated for up to 12 biweekly injections.<\/p>\n Studies show that interferon decreases collagen production by fibroblast<\/strong> and stimulates collagenase activity<\/strong> (scar remodeling – essentially simulating the effect of Xiaflex).<\/p>\n Did you know?<\/strong> <\/span>Dr. Shteynshlyuger has performed over 1,000 penile surgeries,<\/strong> including penile implants, correction of Peyronie’s disease, circumcisions, circumcision revisions, frenuloplasty, and congenital penile curvature. He performs 150-200 penile surgeries a year.<\/p>\n Read RealStories<\/strong>: 53-year-old man with 45-degree dorsal curvature and pain<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n Read RealStories<\/strong>: Penile pain in a 51-year-old adult male with curvature to the left and up<\/a><\/strong> treated with Xiaflex and penile traction.<\/p>\n Read RealStories<\/strong>: 63-year-old man with Peyronies and ED treated with Xiaflex<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n Read RealStories<\/strong>: 75-year-old man with penile narrowing and curvature<\/a> treated with interferon<\/strong><\/p>\n At New York Urology Specialists, we offer affordable treatment for men<\/strong><\/a>. Our prices are low<\/strong> for patients without insurance<\/strong><\/span> and for those who have high insurance copays, high deductibles, or insurance plans that do not cover treatment costs. In general, the cost of Interferon treatment is significantly less than the cost of Xiaflec injections<\/a> or surgery. The cost of Interferon injections is comparable to the cost of verapamil injections<\/a>.
