Tired of Dark Circles and Under-Eye Hollows? Discover PRP in London

At PRP London Clinic, we offer a leading solution: Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy for under-eye rejuvenation. This 100% natural treatment harnesses your body's own powerful healing factors to restore radiance, improve skin texture, and reduce the appearance of common under-eye concerns. Say goodbye to concealers and hello to a naturally refreshed and youthful appearance.

This procedure is part of our comprehensive Guide to Under-Eye Hollowing & Tear Trough Deformity.

Medically Led by Our Clinical Board

PRP London Clinic operates under the rigorous oversight of our Clinical Board. Our periorbital rejuvenation protocols are developed and implemented by specialist doctors with expertise in the delicate under-eye anatomy, including Dr. Mohamed Nafei (GMC: 7520509).

With credentials including MBBS, PgDip in Aesthetic Medicine, and PgDip in Endocrinology, Dr. Nafei brings a nuanced understanding of vascular dark circles, tear trough anatomy, and the hormonal factors that accelerate periorbital ageing. This ensures every under-eye treatment addresses not just symptoms, but the underlying biological causes.

Precision Care for the Periorbital Area

The under-eye area is one of the most delicate regions of the face, with thinner skin and complex vascular anatomy. At PRP London Clinic, our doctors operate within a rigorous clinical workflow specifically adapted for periorbital treatment.

  • Tear Trough Expertise: Every doctor is trained in the precise injection depths and techniques required for safe, effective under-eye treatment—avoiding the pitfalls that can cause Tyndall effect or vascular complications.
  • Consistent PRP Quality: Using the Rein PRP System, we achieve 93-97% platelet recovery rates, ensuring therapeutic-grade growth factor concentration for optimal collagen stimulation.
  • Collaborative Case Review: Complex under-eye concerns (severe hollowing, pigmentation, or combined ageing signs) receive multi-specialist review to determine the best treatment pathway.

What is PRP Treatment for the Under-Eye Area?

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy for the under eyes is a minimally invasive regenerative treatment. It involves drawing a small sample of your own blood, which is then processed in a centrifuge to concentrate the platelets – cells rich in growth factors. This golden plasma, packed with healing and regenerative properties, is then meticulously injected into the delicate under-eye area. These growth factors stimulate collagen production, improve blood circulation, and rejuvenate skin cells, leading to a reduction in dark circles, fine lines, and improved skin thickness and resilience in the tear trough region.

What Can PRP for Under Eyes Treat at Our London Clinic?

  • Dark Circles: Helps reduce pigmentation and improves blood flow to lessen the appearance of dark shadows.
  • Fine Lines & Wrinkles (Crow's Feet): Promotes skin regeneration to soften the appearance of lines around the eyes.
  • Crepey or Thin Skin: Improves skin texture, thickness, and firmness at the dermal level.
  • Skin Quality Over Hollows: PRP improves skin quality and thickness, which can reduce the shadowing effect of mild hollowing. However, for true volume loss (tear trough hollows), a PRF Biofiller or HA-based filler is required to replace subcutaneous volume.
  • Overall Tired Appearance: Rejuvenates the periorbital skin for a brighter, more rested look.

Your PRP Under-Eye Journey at PRP London Clinic

Your path to brighter eyes at PRP London Clinic includes:

  1. Consultation: A thorough assessment with our medical team to discuss your concerns, suitability for PRP, and desired outcomes.
  2. Blood Draw: A small amount of blood (similar to a standard blood test) is comfortably drawn from your arm.
  3. PRP Preparation: Your blood is spun in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelet-rich plasma.
  4. Numbing: A topical anaesthetic cream is applied to the under-eye area to ensure maximum comfort during the procedure.
  5. Precise Injection: Our practitioner carefully injects the PRP into the targeted under-eye areas using very fine needles or a cannula for optimal placement and minimal discomfort.

The entire appointment typically lasts around 45-60 minutes. You'll receive detailed aftercare instructions to support your results.

Key Benefits of Choosing PRP for Under-Eye Rejuvenation

  • 100% Natural & Autologous: Uses your body's own healing power, significantly reducing the risk of allergic reactions or side effects.
  • Addresses Multiple Skin Concerns: Effectively targets dark circles, fine lines, crepey texture, and thin periorbital skin.
  • Stimulates Collagen & Elastin: Promotes long-term skin health and regeneration at the dermal level for lasting improvements.
  • Improves Skin Quality: Results in thicker, firmer, and more radiant skin under the eyes.
  • Safe for the Delicate Eye Area: Considered a safer alternative to some other treatments for this sensitive region.
  • Minimally Invasive with Little Downtime: Most patients resume normal activities quickly.
  • Gradual, Natural-Looking Results: Improvements appear over weeks as your skin regenerates from within.

Safety, Recovery, and Aftercare for Under-Eye PRP

PRP therapy is renowned for its excellent safety profile, especially as it uses your own biological material. After your PRP under-eye treatment at PRP London Clinic, you might experience temporary mild swelling, redness, or pinpoint bruising at the injection sites. These effects are usually short-lived and typically resolve within a few days. Applying a cool compress can help alleviate these. Most individuals can return to their daily routines almost immediately or the following day. Our medical team will provide specific aftercare advice, which generally includes avoiding strenuous exercise, excessive sun exposure, and certain skincare products for a brief period to ensure optimal healing and the best possible outcome for your under-eye rejuvenation.

Candidate & Reality: Who Benefits Most?

The Ideal CandidateMay Need Alternative Treatment
Dark circles caused by thin skin or poor circulationDark circles caused by significant volume loss (fillers needed)
Fine lines and crepey skin textureDeep pigmentation unrelated to skin thinning
Mild shadowing improved by better skin qualityTear trough hollows requiring volume replacement (PRF Biofiller/HA filler)
Healthy platelet count and no blood disordersBlood clotting disorders or on anticoagulants
Seeking gradual skin quality improvementSeeking immediate volume correction (fillers better)

Step-by-Step: The PRP Under-Eye Protocol

Our Clinical Board follows a rigorous 5-stage medical protocol to ensure maximum platelet recovery and optimal rejuvenation for the delicate periorbital area.

1

Consultation & Assessment

A thorough evaluation of your under-eye concerns, skin quality, and medical history to determine suitability for PRP treatment.

2

Precision Blood Draw

A small sample of blood is drawn from your arm using sterile vacuum-sealed phlebotomy equipment to ensure maximum cell viability.

3

High-Recovery PRP Processing

Your blood is processed using the Rein PRP System at optimised centrifugation settings, achieving a 93–97% platelet recovery rate for maximum growth factor concentration.

4

Topical Anaesthesia & Preparation

The under-eye area is cleansed and a topical numbing cream is applied for 20-30 minutes to ensure maximum comfort during the procedure.

5

Targeted Micro-Injection Protocol

Our GMC-registered doctors perform precise micro-injections using fine needles or cannula, delivering concentrated growth factors directly to the tear trough and periorbital tissue.

PRP vs. Tear Trough Fillers: What's the Difference?

While both PRP and traditional tear trough fillers (often hyaluronic acid-based) can improve the appearance of under-eye hollows, they work differently. Fillers primarily add volume to fill the space. PRP, on the other hand, is a regenerative treatment that stimulates your body's own collagen production and improves skin quality from within. It doesn't just fill; it rebuilds and rejuvenates. For some patients, these treatments can even be combined for enhanced results. This will be discussed during your consultation.

Clinical Disclaimer

PRP Therapy is a biological medical procedure. Individual results vary based on age, genetics, skin condition, and baseline health. While the Rein PRP system achieves a 93-97% platelet recovery rate, PRP is a treatment to improve skin quality and reduce the appearance of under-eye concerns—it is not a replacement for surgical procedures in cases of significant fat pad herniation or severe skin laxity. A professional consultation is required to determine suitability.
