After applying platelet-rich plasma under your eyes, the growth factors in the injections revitalize your skin for increased youthfulness. When you receive injections of platelet-rich plasma, the goal is to reverse the decline in collagen production caused by aging. This protein is crucial to keeping your skin youthfully firm. As time goes on, your body creates less and less of it until it stops altogether. This can lead to problems with skin elasticity, especially in the area under your eyes.
While some prefer to use hyaluronic acid injections to address this hollowness, Lace & Needle prefers PRP as a more natural alternative to under-eye filler. In Sioux City, Lacey’s med spa uses under-eye PRP to increase your body’s collagen production in as few as 3 treatments. This helps to reduce the appearance of sagging in the lower eyelid and can smooth wrinkles in this area as well.
