What to expect
Right after treatment, patients can expect mild swelling, puffiness, or light bruising under the eyes—this is normal and usually peaks within the first 24–48 hours. The area may also feel slightly tight or tender.
Over the next 3–7 days, swelling gradually subsides and the under-eye area begins to look more refreshed. A subtle improvement in volume may be visible early on due to the gel component.
Over the following 4–8 weeks, the PRP continues to stimulate collagen production, leading to gradual improvements in skin thickness, brightness, and overall texture.
Final results are typically seen around 6–8 weeks, with continued skin quality improvement over time.
Most patients benefit from a series of treatments for optimal, longer-lasting results.
Results typically last about 6–12 months, depending on the patient’s skin quality, age, and how well their body responds to PRP.
The initial volume from the gel is usually most noticeable in the first few months and gradually softens over time.
The collagen-stimulating effects from PRP continue improving skin thickness and quality for several months after treatment.
Most patients choose maintenance treatments 1–2 times per year to keep results consistent and continue improving under-eye skin over time.
What can PRP be used for?
- Vampire Facial (Microneedling with PRP)
- Microneedling is a minimally invasive cosmetic procedure wherein a device (SkinPen) rolls tiny needles over the skin to create microscopic channels, otherwise known as micro-injuries. This triggers the body’s natural healing response, which restores the skin’s appearance and fights the visible signs of aging. At Modern Aesthetics, we can enhance the standard microneedling process by integrating PRP, a substance isolated from your own blood, which is rich in collagen growth factors that actively promote cellular repair.
In the course of a PRP microneedling treatment at Modern Aesthetics, an expert technician will take a small sample of blood. The blood sample is then purified and separated to isolate the PRP. Once separated, the PRP is reintroduced to your skin during the microneedling process, permeating through the tiny channels created by the treatment to reach the deepest layers of the skin. From there, the PRP acts as a catalyst to boost natural production of collagen and elastin — important proteins which tend to break down and diminish as we age.
- Hair Restoration
- PRP hair restoration is a hair loss treatment that utilizes platelets, a major component of your blood, to stimulate hair growth. Platelets are blood cells that play a crucial role in the body’s natural healing process by releasing GROWTH FACTORS, stem cells and proteins that promote hair follicle health.
A small amount of blood is taken and processed to concentrate the platelets. The concentrated platelets are then injected into the scalp at the site of hair loss or thinning. PRP injections for hair loss typically involve multiple sessions over a period of six months.
How does Cellenis® DermaGel PRP work?
🧬 What DermaGel PRP Is
DermaGel PRP (like Cellenis® DermaGel) is an advanced regenerative treatment that combines your body’s natural platelet-rich plasma (PRP) with a gel matrix to create both immediate volume and long-term skin rejuvenation.
Unlike traditional PRP, a portion of the plasma is transformed into a smooth, gel-like consistency, allowing it to act similarly to a filler—while still delivering powerful growth factors that stimulate collagen and tissue repair.

👁 Why It’s One of the Best Treatments for Under Eyes
The under-eye area is delicate, thin, and high-risk—so treatments need to be both safe and natural-looking.
DermaGel PRP stands out because it does both:
1. ✨ Immediate + Long-Term Results
The gel component provides soft, natural volume right away
PRP continues to stimulate collagen, improve skin thickness, and repair tissue over time
👉 This means patients don’t just look better instantly—their skin actually improves.
⸻
2. 🌿 100% Natural (No Synthetic Filler)
Made entirely from the patient’s own blood
No hyaluronic acid or synthetic material
Extremely low risk of complications compared to traditional filler
PRP is widely used because it enhances collagen, circulation, and skin quality naturally, making it ideal for thin under-eye skin.

3. 💡 Improves the Real Problem (Not Just Volume)
Under-eye concerns aren’t just “hollows”—they include:
Dark circles
Crepey skin
Thin, translucent skin
Poor circulation
DermaGel PRP addresses all of these by:
Thickening the skin
Improving blood flow and brightness
Stimulating new tissue and collagen
⸻
4. ⚖️ Safer Than Traditional Under-Eye Filler
Traditional filler can:
Migrate
Cause puffiness or a “pillow” look
Carry rare but serious risks (like vascular complications)
DermaGel PRP:
Integrates naturally into tissue
Doesn’t overfill or attract excess water
Gives a softer, more natural result
