Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF): A 100% natural game-changer for under-eye rejuvenation

Feeling a bit more crinkly around the edges than you’d like? We’ve got the answer.

The tissue under your eyes is the thinnest on your body. So, unfortunately, it will begin to show your years faster than other areas. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) therapy optimizes the latest in science and your own body’s natural growth hormones to help you say goodbye to dark circles, loose skin and fine lines and hello to brighter, tighter under-eyes.

PRF is the next evolution of blood concentration therapy, with several exciting advantages over Platelet-rich plasma (PRP). PRF uses low-centrifugation to preserve the vitality of white blood cells and create a higher concentration of platelets, fibrin and natural growth factors in a layer at the top of the tube. (Fibrin scaffolding and stem cells are not found in PRP.) When we inject this mixture under your eyes using a micro cannula to minimize bruising, it stimulates collagen and elastin production to improve skin tone, firmness and elasticity for a more youthful, well-rested look. (Even when you’re short on sleep.) The repair and regeneration of new healthy skin tissue will continue over the next two to three months, for natural, long-lasting results.

The absence of any additives or anti-coagulant in PRF allows for the creation of a fibrin scaffold that keeps cells more active. This means your own blood’s growth factors are released more slowly—over a few days rather than hours—making them more readily available in your skin’s repair and regeneration process. This helps strengthen the overall health and integrity of your under-eye area, visibly improving fine lines and lightening pigmentation.

Here’s more good news: if you’re also hoping to offset hollows under your eyes, the gel-like consistency of PRF works synergistically with hyaluronic acid (HA) fillers. The filler provides immediate volume while the PRF gradually, thickens, firms, brightens and smoothes under-eye skin. Pairing PRF with filler leads to more natural-looking fullness and the need for less filler in the future due to improvements in skin health over time.

We recommend a series of three PRF treatments approximately two to three months apart for the best results. And combining PRF under-eye injections with microneedling or Secret RF will seriously send your skin’s firmness and elasticity to the next level.
