Under-Eye Refresh
In Mount Pleasant, SC
Wake Up Looking as Rested as You Feel
PRF under-eye treatment offers a carefully placed, biologically driven way to refine the delicate skin beneath your eyes, a way to look genuinely rested, not a quick concealer swap. Aging, stress, genetics, and sun exposure thin this skin over time, leading to dark circles, fine lines, puffiness, and a tired look.
This treatment draws on your own body’s healing components to renew the under-eye area gradually and naturally. PRF, or platelet-rich fibrin, is made from a small sample of your own blood. It’s spun in a centrifuge to concentrate platelets and growth factors in a fibrin matrix that releases them slowly. Once injected beneath the eyes, these growth factors stimulate collagen production, which helps thicken the skin, soften discoloration, and gradually fill hollows.
At Savvy Aesthetics, your medical provider begins with a careful evaluation, then follows evidence-based protocols suited to you. You deserve to look as awake as you feel.
Benefits of PRF Under-Eye Treatment
A Brighter Look
Discoloration softens gradually as collagen renews beneath the surface, leaving your eyes looking rested.
Reduces Dark Circles and Puffiness
Thicker, healthier skin makes shadows and discoloration less visible.
Restores Volume Beneath the Eye
Volume returns gradually, smoothing the transition between the lower lid and cheek.
Softens Fine Lines
Firmer, smoother skin develops over a series of sessions.
Rooted in Your Own Biology
Because PRF comes from your own blood, there's no synthetic material involved.
How It Works
Consult
Your medical provider discusses your concerns and examines your under-eye anatomy to confirm this treatment fits your goals.
Blood Draw
A small blood sample is taken, similar to routine bloodwork, and processed on-site to isolate the PRF.
Injection
Your medical provider places the PRF beneath the eyes with a fine needle. The full session takes about 45 minutes.
Natural Healing
Over the following weeks, your body’s healing response builds new collagen, with full results developing over four to six weeks.
Ideal Candidates for PRF Under-Eye Treatment
- A tired appearance or dark circles persist even after a full night's sleep.
- Hollowing beneath the eyes has become more noticeable with age or volume loss.
- You'd prefer a treatment made from your own blood rather than synthetic filler.
- You're looking for gradual, natural improvement rather than an instant, dramatic change.
Before and Aftercare Tips
Before Your Appointment
Stay well hydrated in the days leading up to your session to support the blood draw and healing.

Skip alcohol for at least 24 hours prior.
Arrive with a clean, makeup-free face.

Keep your head elevated, even while sleeping, for the first few nights to reduce swelling.
Apply a cold compress gently if needed, avoiding direct pressure on the treated area.
