Sunken Tear Troughs and dark circles beneath the eyes are common complaints and for most people, the under eye area, is the first to show signs of ageing. At our Wirral clinic we use a combination of  PRF, Microneedling and specifically formulated Chemical Peels.  The placement is typically based on skin damage, skin texture, bony alterations, and fat pad herniation . Because the area around the eyes is delicate, and mobile many clients prefer a non-invasive treatment that will revitalise the area.

From experience we find the least invasive approach to address these issues is to use PRF and inject the plasma in place of a Dermal Filler.  Dermal Fillers are made from Hyaluronic Acid which is hydrophilic meaning it attracts water by nature. This is a concern as the under eye skin is very thin and the addition of filler may leave a blue tinge under the eyes, resulting in a fake appearance, which we want to avoid. We would be delighted to discuss under eye filler in Merseyside with you.

What Causes Dark Under Eye Circles?

Despite the fact that dark circles can affect anyone, they are particularly common in those who:

1. Have a hereditary propensity to this condition (periorbital hyperpigmentation).
2. Loss of Collagen/ Age
3. Patients with brown and black skin are more prone to hyperpigmentation around the eye area
4. Genetics
5. Dehydration
6. Sun over exposure
7. Fatigue

PRF Under Eye Filler

Platelet Rich Fibrin, or PRF, is increasingly becoming a standard component of aesthetic procedures. PRF under eye filler is a procedure for rejuvenation that uses the patient’s own blood plasma. Platelets (a source of healing proteins and growth factors), fibrins (the wound healing and regeneration matrix), and stem cells (conductors of our body’s own healing and regeneration modules) are all present in blood plasma.

PRF’s growth factors are essential for reversing the telltale signs of ageing. PRF has a larger percentage of platelets, fibrin, and white blood cells, as well as a minor number of stem cells, when compared to PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma). Platelets bind to the fibrin network and release growth factors, which stimulate the creation of new skin cells, collagen, and blood vessels. PRF’s growth factors are also released considerably more slowly than PRP’s, resulting in a more long-lasting anti-aging treatment.
