Want to enhance quality of under eyelid skin. Some fine lines . Had tear trough fillers before.
Answer: How to Improve Under Eye Skin Hi Improve. If you want to improve under eye skin and have already have fillers, your best bet is not microneedling, but rather a CO2 or Erbium lasers resurfacing. The benefit of these is that we get to use a function called "coagulation" which leads to tightening of the skin. In addition, the nature of fractional resurfacing is that it removes tiny pieces of tissue with then have to be replaced with new collagen. This is in contrast to microneedling, which causes trauma and a healing response, but removes no tissue and uses no heat. A Sciton Profractional Erbium is safe for darker skin typos and has all the benefits mentioned above that yield better results for fractional resurfacing than microneedling. Best of luck.

Answer: Microneedling/prp results--add lasers Yes, microneedling/prp is good for rejuvenation and can be used on darker skin. I always combine microneedling/prp with lasers to improve long term outcomes. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Answer: Microneedling with PRP. Want to enhance quality of under eyelid skin. Microneedling with PRP is a wonderful procedure. We see an improvement in crepey skin, fine lines and wrinkles and overall tone and texture. It is safe for darker skin types. However, because post procedure inflammation can result in hyperpigmentation, it is best to not have an overly aggressive treatment. Also, preparing the skin prior to the procedure is of benefit. Going into the procedure with hydrated and healthy skin will improve the recovery time and the results.

Answer: Under eye wrinkles Microneedling with PRP would be a good option to smooth the crepy skin under the eyes especially in patients with darker skin tones.Slight swelling and mild erythema might be noted for a few days. Recovery time is usually minimal. Other option would include laser resurfacing but the practioner should be very experienced as hypo or hyperpigmenation could occur with your skin tone. Microtox (small doses of botox and/or filler) can be used to treat this area with nice results. The results of microtox last about 3-4 months.
