PRP injection in tear trough? How many treatments do I need?

Hello, thank you for the question. We actually find that PRP works best when used in tandem with other treatments like fillers and microneedling or ProFractional. I would meet with a certified and reputable injector or board-certified plastic surgeon to discuss the correct path of approach for you. Good luck!

Thank you for your question. Fillers like Belotero, Volbella, and Restylane Silk are good for improving under the eyes, but keep in mind that a combination approach will give the most improvement. My patients try to get non-surgical treatments to avoid surgery, so we use fillers, lasers, microneedling/PRP and stem cells. I suggest consulting with an expert to develop a treatment plan best suited for you. Best, Dr. Emer

It would help if you had posted a photo. Usually a couple of PRP treatments spread out every couple of weeks would be good. PRP is quickly reabsorbed and it's affects take time to manifest depending on what is being treated?

Thank you for your messasge! PRP injections are great for helping soften the under eye area. After the PRP is injected, the body reabsorbs it. Typically multiple treatments of the PRP injections are needed, spaced a few weeks apart, though it is difficult to fully assess your needs without pictures. We typically recommend yearly maintenance for PRP injections to keep up with your desired results. I would recommend a consultation with a provider in your area for further assessment!

PRP gets absorbed fairly fast, in a week or less. Some doctors feel that maintenance is critical and repeated PRP is needed to maintain benefits
