PRP and PRFM for Under-Eye Rejuvenation
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) and PRFM (Platelet-Rich Fibrin Matrix) are advanced, natural treatments for under-eye rejuvenation. These procedures use components derived from your own blood to restore volume, improve skin texture, and reduce dark circles and fine lines under the eyes. PRP contains a concentrated dose of growth factors to stimulate collagen production and tissue repair, while PRFM takes PRP a step further by adding a fibrin matrix that holds the platelets in place for longer-lasting results. Together, these treatments offer a safe, non-surgical solution for revitalizing the delicate under-eye area.
How Does PRP and PRFM Work?
The process begins with a small blood draw, which is then spun in a centrifuge to isolate the platelets and plasma. For PRFM, an additional step is taken to form a fibrin scaffold, which enhances the longevity and effectiveness of the platelets. Once prepared, the PRP or PRFM is carefully injected into the under-eye area. The growth factors in the plasma work to stimulate collagen production, improve circulation, and promote natural skin repair. Over time, this leads to smoother, firmer skin with reduced discoloration and puffiness.
Benefits of PRP and PRFM for Under-Eye Rejuvenation:
- Reduces the appearance of dark circles and fine lines.
- Stimulates natural collagen production for long-lasting results.
- Improves skin texture and firmness.
- Minimizes hollowness and restores volume under the eyes.
- Uses natural components from your own body, reducing the risk of adverse reactions.
- Offers a non-surgical alternative to fillers or invasive procedures.
What Is PRP and PRFM Good For?
PRP and PRFM are excellent options for individuals seeking to improve the appearance of tired, aging eyes. These treatments are particularly effective for reducing dark circles, smoothing fine lines, and restoring volume to hollow under-eye areas. By targeting the root causes of under-eye concerns—such as thinning skin and poor circulation—PRP and PRFM provide natural, long-lasting rejuvenation.

FAQS
Results typically become noticeable within a few weeks as collagen production increases. Full results are usually visible after a few months, and they can last for up to a year with proper care.
Downtime is minimal. Some patients experience mild swelling or bruising at the injection site, but this typically resolves within a few days.
PRFM includes a fibrin matrix that holds the platelets in place for a longer time, allowing for extended release of growth factors. This often results in more durable and effective outcomes compared to PRP alone.
