PRP injections in the under-eye area are an excellent treatment for addressing fine lines and wrinkles in this region for optimum rejuvenation. PRP contains growth factors that stimulate collagen production when injected into the skin. By stimulating new collagen production, platelet-rich plasma helps tighten loose skin around the eyes to lessen the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles like crow’s feet, while also eliminating bags underneath the eyes. Puffiness and discoloration around the eyes are less visible with as little as one treatment. While the results are not permanent, these injections can help patients looking for a more long-term option when it comes to looking youthful and refreshed.
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) undereye injections involve using the patient’s own platelet-rich plasma to address concerns such as dark circles, puffiness, and fine lines under the eyes. Here are some frequently asked questions (FAQs) about PRP undereye injections:
PRP undereye injections involve injecting platelet-rich plasma, derived from the patient’s blood, into the undereye area to address specific concerns such as dark circles, puffiness, and fine lines.

The purpose of this consent form is to provide written information regarding the risks, benefits and alternatives of treatment to PRP. This material serves as a supplement to the discussion you have with your Crawford Cosmetics provider. It’s important that you fully understand this material, so please read this information thoroughly. If you have any questions regarding the procedure, ask your Crawford Cosmetics provider prior to signing this consent form.
TREATMENT GOALS AND DESCRIPTION OF PROCEDURE PRP is an acronym for Platelet-Rich Plasma. PRP injections are a type of facial rejuvenation treatment used to help improve the look of aging skin. This platelet-rich plasma is made by taking a blood sample from the donor, containing red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets that release growth factors. These growth factors, when injected into the face, stimulate collagen production, providing an anti-aging effect on the facial appearance. Puffiness and discoloration around the eyes are less visible with as little as one treatment. While the results are not permanent, these injections can help patients looking for a more long-term option when it comes to looking youthful and refreshed.
TREATMENT RESULTS Most patients are pleased with the results of their Under-Eye PRP treatment.

I acknowledge that while good results are expected, I may be disappointed with the results of the procedure. I understand there is no guarantee of results of any treatment. Even though appropriate measures are taken to reduce side effects, they cannot be completely eliminated in every case. I understand that the treatment may involve risks of complication or injury from both known and unknown causes. I agree to follow the pre- and post-treatment instructions carefully. I understand that compliance with the recommended pre- and post-procedure guidelines is crucial for healing and reducing the risk of complications.
