Eye bags/bulge under eye after PRP injections due to poor injector technique. How can this be resolved? Pls. help.

Usually the immediate effects of PRP wears off in a few days. I would not be too concerned yet. In another week or so you should see full resolution of your swelling, if for some reason it still swollen by then see your provider . Gentle massages to the area might help if there is some swelling related to the injection cold compresses might still help.

This is typical. Swelling should resolve in 2-3 days. I recommend following your Doctor's after care protocols in order to get the best results. I find this procedure is great for rejuvenation but needs to be combined with lasers, fillers, or skin tightening to get the ultimate outcomes. See an expert for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer.

Thank you for your question. What you are experiencing is quite common and not indicative of your end result. It is very difficult to inject too much PRP. It is not a filler. Rather it is a bio-stimulator that will help firm the skin around the eyes. The higher the platelet concentration in the PRP the more swelling you will experience. You should see a significant improvement in swelling in the coming days with ongoing improvement in the coming weeks and months.I hope this was helpful - Dr. Moore.

Hi moimoi923,It's a common idea that there should be no swelling after PRP but the truth is, it is quite a common occurrence. This is seen specially when treating baldness using Microneedling with PRP.The swelling should subside in 3-5 days. Seek the help of your regular provider if the skin continues to be slack.All the best,Justin Harper, M.D.
