PRP for your under eyes let's talk about it. If you have hollow under eyes, PRP might be a really nice option for you, especially if you don't want to get under eye filler or you're not a candidate. So what exactly is prp? PRP is your own body's natural fertilizer. It's your blood that we spin and separate and get really really concentrated plasma that is loaded in growth factors and healing properties. So when you inject it it's acting like your own fertilizer to promote your own tissues growth and density so that your under eyes can look firmer longer. PRF is PRP's cousins. PRP works slightly faster. PRF is the extended release version working slower over time which some people think gives better long term results. I recently did PRF a few weeks ago underneath my under eyes and even in my lip. There is no filler here. Yes, I bruise but that's the thing with PRP or PRF because it's releasing those growth factors. You're going to swell and maybe bruise. It's unpredictable.
