I have some under eye hollowing but I don’t like the idea of injecting fillers. But I’ve seen a person get PRP injections to the under eye region and it looked good for about a week before it had looked like it went back to her normal appearance with dark circles. (And she wasn’t sleep deprived or just tired).

Answer: PRP Thank you for your question. Injecting PRP into the under eyes is not meant to give you an immediate result. It was likely swelling that you noticed on your friend and why it looked "good". When injecting PRP the point is to stimulate collagen growth which takes months to see. As you continue to age you will slowly continue to lose collagen so the results will not last. People tend to do a maintenance treatment in order to maintain the results every year. Hope this helps!

Answer: How long do PRP injections last Thank you for your question. PRP can be an excellent choice for the under eye area without the risks associated with using filler. Results, however, are not immediate. The initial improvement in appearance that lasted for a week was probably from some swelling which occurs after PRP injection which usually subsides after a few days. PRP injections can help reduce dark circles, skin laxity, fine lines, and also with help with some volume loss. Usually at least three injections done about a month apart are needed to see noticeable improvement after which time injections every 6-12 months apart are needed to maintain results.
