PRP For Dark Eye Circles in Vancouver

Refresh your eyes with Platelet Rich Plasma and harness your body’s natural regenerative powers!

PRP under-eye treatments (commonly called tear-trough rejuvenation) work gradually to refresh and brighten the delicate skin beneath the eyes. By utilizing the healing properties of your own plasma, PRP stimulates growth factors that encourage the development of new blood vessels and improved circulation. This brings fresh oxygen and nutrients to the area, helping to reduce dark circles, improve skin texture, and restore a healthier, more youthful glow. The results develop naturally over time, creating a refreshed appearance without altering your unique look

What is Platelet Rich Plasma?

Plasma is a part of your blood that is rich in platelets and has special proteins that both help the blood to clot and, significantly, are vital for cell growth and healing. Platelets release small molecules which regulate tissue healing and stimulate the production of collagen. When injected into the tear-troughs it stimulates the formation of collagen, fibroblasts and increases cell regeneration, which can all help to minimize the appearance of those dark circles under your eyes.

Candidates for Undereye PRP Therapy

Whether you are a younger person with genetic hollowing of your undereye area, or you’re older and experiencing volume loss, PRP may be the answer for you. While some patients can achieve wonderful results with dermal fillers to the tear-troughs, not everyone is a good candidate, or wants to opt for this. PRP is an excellent alternative as it harnesses your body’s own natural regenerative power.

With the high safety-profile of PRP it’s not surprising that so many of our patients are enjoying the many benefits of this innovative treatment.

PRP for Dark Circles Treatment Session

Prior to the procedure, a topical numbing cream is applied to ensure comfort, and patients may experience slight swelling following the under eye injections. Because the treatment uses your own blood, it is a natural option for aging skin and under-eye concerns. However, patients taking blood thinners should inform their provider, as it can affect blood flow and healing after the PRP treatment.

The process begins by drawing a small sample of your blood, which is then spun in a centrifuge to separate the platelet-rich plasma. This concentrated plasma is carefully drawn into a syringe and precisely injected into the under-eye area by a highly trained specialist. Over time, the PRP helps reduce dark circles, improve texture, and restore a healthier, more youthful glow, all while maintaining a soft, natural look.

Eye PRP Results and Recovery

Most patients notice visible improvements in their under-eye area following PRP treatment, including smoother texture and a brighter appearance. For best results, it’s recommended to complete 3–4 treatments, spaced about 1–2 months apart to allow for adequate healing and collagen development between sessions. Each PRP injection encourages gradual renewal of the skin, which is why results may continue to improve over time. Since this technique relies on natural healing, there’s minimal downtime, and most people can return to normal activities shortly after the session. As new collagen forms and blood flow improves, the under-eye area looks refreshed and more youthful.

    You can expect to see your skin visibly lighter and brighter, pore size minimized, texture improved reduced fine lines and wrinkles, plumping of the skin and reduced darkness within 10-12 days. However, it can take up to 4 months after your 3rd treatment before you see the full benefits.

    You can expect to be here for 45-75 minutes.

  • Is it painful?

    We use topical numbing cream applied to your face before your treatment. You may feel some pressure, but it shouldn’t be painful.

  • What is the downtime?

    The great news is the downtime is very minimal. Most people return to their normal activity immediately. Some people do experience some redness lasting for a few hours and up to 1 day, but this is rare. In addition, there is a risk of some bruising, but this is very low risk.
