Is PRP safe around the eye?

April 6, 2018
Asked By:gb54 in Liverpool, GB

Hello. I have very thin skin under the eyes, the area often looks black/purple. I also suffer from puffy eyes, which has probably caused the the skin to become thin (?). I have been thinking of having PRP under my eyes for sometime. Is this a safe procedure? Also, will the inflammation from the injection cause the skin to thin even more? I’ve read that inflammation is bad, but this procedure causes inflammation? Any advice is very much appreciated. Regards.
