Treatment of colored and hollow dark circles with PRP injections
Number of sessions and results
Find a fresh and rested look
Hollow, colored dark circles make the face look tired, even after a good night's sleep. In fact, they can darken the eyes, accentuate the sad and aged look, and thus alter the overall harmony of the face.
Therefore, treatment with Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections constitutes a natural, innovative and regenerative solution to improve the quality of the skin under the eyes.
In addition, it is scientifically proven that PRP is effective in reducing the discoloration of dark circles and gradually restoring a fresher, luminous and rested look.
Why do dark circles appear?
Dark circles generally result from several often associated mechanisms:
- loss of volume in the valley of tears;
- thinning of the skin of the lower eyelids;
- increased transparency of blood vessels;
- vascular congestion;
- increased pigmentation;
- genetic factors;
- skin aging;
- but also fatigue, stress and nutritional deficiencies.
So, over time, these different factors can gradually accentuate the tired appearance of the eyes.
What is PRP?
PRP is obtained from a simple blood sample.
Then, after centrifugation, the platelet-rich plasma is isolated. Therefore, it contains numerous growth factors capable of stimulating:
- collagen production;
- microcirculation;
- cell regeneration;
- tissue repair;
- as well as overall improvement in skin quality.
Furthermore, as it is a treatment using the patient's own resources, the risk of allergy or rejection remains extremely low.
How does PRP work on dark circles?
Platelet-rich plasma acts on several levels.
Improvement in skin thickness
Thanks to the stimulation of fibroblasts, the production of collagen gradually increases. Thus, the skin becomes denser, more resistant and less transparent.
Reduction of coloring
By improving microcirculation and promoting the elimination of pigments, PRP can then reduce the purplish or brownish tints of dark circles.
Natural regeneration
In addition, the treatment promotes progressive, natural and lasting cellular renewal.
Brighter look
Finally, the skin becomes more toned, smoother and more homogeneous, allowing you to regain a visibly more radiant and rested look.
Progress of a session
After the blood test and the preparation of the PRP, micro-injections are gently carried out around the eye area. From then on, the process of tissue regeneration can begin gradually.
Typically, the session lasts around 45 to 60 minutes.
Subsequently, a slight redness or slight swelling may appear temporarily, before disappearing quickly in the following hours or days.
How many sessions are needed?
A protocol of 3 sessions spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart is generally recommended. Subsequently, interview sessions can be considered as needed.
Expected results
Over the weeks, patients observe:
- a reduction in the hollow appearance;
- an improvement in the color of dark circles;
- thicker, brighter skin;
- a more rested and younger look.
As a result, the results appear gradually and maintain a very natural appearance.
Why choose PRP for dark circles?
- 100% natural treatment;
- without synthetic product;
- improvement of skin quality;
- progressive and natural results;
- excellent tolerance.
