Clitoxin® is a physician-only procedure that applies a precisely dosed neuromodulator to address clitoral hypersensitivity — a condition that causes discomfort or pain during sexual activity due to excessive nerve sensitivity. By modulating the neuromuscular response, Clitoxin® can transform sexual experiences for women who have been unable to enjoy intimacy due to hypersensitivity.
Understanding Clitoral Hypersensitivity
Clitoral hypersensitivity (also called clitorodynia) is more common than many women realize — and more treatable. It can manifest as discomfort or pain with direct clitoral stimulation, inability to tolerate sexual contact, post-orgasmic hypersensitivity, and reduced quality of life due to sexual avoidance. Causes include nerve hypersensitivity, hormonal changes, post-menopausal changes, and in some cases, prior trauma or surgery.
How Clitoxin® Works
Clitoxin® uses a small, precisely dosed injection of neuromodulator to temporarily reduce the hypersensitive nerve response — allowing for comfortable, pleasurable sexual activity. The effect is localized and does not affect overall sensation; rather, it modulates the excessive sensitivity that causes discomfort, restoring a normal, pleasurable response.
The Treatment Experience
Clitoxin® is performed under topical anesthesia in a private, comfortable setting. The procedure takes approximately 15–20 minutes. Most patients notice improvement within 1–2 weeks as the neuromodulator takes effect. Results typically last 3–6 months, and the treatment can be repeated as needed.
Combining with the O-Shot®
Clitoxin® and the O-Shot® address different aspects of women's sexual wellness and can be combined for comprehensive results. The O-Shot® enhances sensitivity and arousal through tissue regeneration; Clitoxin® modulates hypersensitivity for comfort. Together, they can restore a balanced, pleasurable sexual response for women experiencing both reduced arousal and hypersensitivity.
