Under Eye Restoration

The Experience: We harness the power of your body’s own regenerative abilities through the use of PRP and PRFM to naturally improve the appearance of sagging and crepiness under the eyes. This results in a long-lasting and refreshed look that will help you feel more awake, confident, and ready to take on your day.

For Best Results: We typically recommend a series of 3 treatments approximately 1 month apart with a maintenance treatment every 12 months.

Frequently Asked Questions

Under Eye Restoration at CONTŌR involves use of the latest technologies in regenerative medicine to improve skin quality beneath the eyes. Each session involves drawing your blood followed by centrifugation to separate the platelets and growth factors and to create PRP or PRFM (platelet rich fibrin matrix). This “liquid gold” contains a high concentration of your own growth factors which stimulates the body’s natural processes to improve tissue quality under the eyes, leaving you looking refreshed and more awake.

At CONTŌR, we offer both under eye filler and under eye restoration with PRFM in addition to other topical treatments for the under eye. In general, PRFM is a more natural treatment with lower risk of adverse effects and more permanent results compared to filler, however it does require multiple sessions. Filler is best for those with moderate to severe under eye hollowing while PRFM is best used to improve under eye skin quality. For under eye pigmentation issues, you may also be a candidate for an under eye peel. During your CONTŌR Consultation, our providers can help decide what the best treatment is for you based on your current condition and aesthetic goals.

We typically recommend a minimum of 3 treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart, followed by a maintenance treatment every 12 months.

Under eye restoration at CONTŌR is generally very low-risk and does not require any significant downtime or recovery period. You will typically experience immediate swelling which improves over 1-3 days. As with any injection, there is a risk of bruising which typically resolves quickly

Results of under eye restoration with PRFM treatments can vary significantly from person to person depending on many factors including overall health, genetics and number of sessions. In some cases, guests may see improvement within a few weeks, while in others it may take 2-3 months to see a noticeable improvement.

Under eye restoration treatments with PRFM are generally well-tolerated and do not involve significant pain. You may feel some pressure in area during the treatment.

Please note: Individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding are not suitable candidates for this treatment.  Before undergoing an under eye restoration treatment with PRFM at CONTŌR, please avoid taking any anti-inflammatory medications (such as Advil or Aleve) 24 hours before or after the treatment.

After your under eye restoration treatment with PRFM, you should avoid the following:

-Use of NSAIDs like advil, aleve or aspirin, which can interfere with the intentional inflammatory process. You may take tylenol, which is not an anti-inflammatory medication
-Use of ice in the under eye area
-After a full course of under eye restoration, we typically recommend maintenance treatments every 12 months to maintain your results
