The Under Eye Rejuvenation Process
Refreshing your youthful appearance starts with a personal consultation. We’ll discuss your concerns and goals, and examine your treatment areas. If Under Eye Rejuvenation in Brookline offers the best solution, we’ll schedule your appointment.
During the session, we’ll draw blood to separate out the PRP components. Then we’ll inject the PRP into your under eye skin, and apply Ultratherapy’s ultrasound to generate a collagen-boosting thermal effect under the skin.

Let our team help you on your aesthetic journey!
Ultherapy lifts and tightens your facial tissue to create a younger you! Also known as the “Non-Surgical Facelift”, Ultherapy is the only non-invasive FDA-approved procedure that lifts the brow to make you look more awake, and feel rejuvenated!
Ultherapy uses ultrasound technology to stimulate the production of new collagen and elastin from the inside-out. The skin’s resiliency and contours are renewed by gradually lifting and tightening the skin.
The best candidates for Under Eye Rejuvenation want a natural, minimally invasive solution for aging skin and under eye hollows. These candidates for PRP treatments meet the following requirements:
- Are generally in good health
- Do not smoke
- Have not had recent steroid treatments
- Are not pregnant or breastfeeding
- Have no active skin infections or rashes in the treatment area
PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. It has been used for decades to help injuries heal. In more recent years, PRP has become an important part of aesthetic treatments and rejuvenation.
PRP is made by taking a sample of the patient’s blood and spinning it on a centrifuge. This separates the platelets from the blood, allowing them to be harvested for use. These platelets contain hundreds of proteins called “growth factors” that have amazing healing qualities.
PRP also contains plasma proteins and protease inhibitors that work in a variety of ways to promote healing and prevent tissue degeneration. The PRP can be injected or added to a gel to help the upper layers of skin or even encourage dormant hair follicles to become active.
Pre- and Post-Care Instructions for PRP Under Eye Rejuvenation in Brookline
- Women who are pregnant or nursing should not be treated with PRP/PRF injections.
- We suggest that if you are actively trying to conceive, you consult your physician before being treated with PRP/PRF injections.
- Please allow a minimum of 2 weeks’ time in between any vaccinations and your treatment.
- It is best to avoid alcohol & blood-thinning medications (aspirin, ibuprofen, etc.) 24 to 48 hours prior to your treatment. This may increase your risk of bruising.
- Bruising is always a risk with this procedure. For this reason, we recommend taking Arnica tablets for 5 days leading up to your procedure.
- If you are prone to and being treated in an area that may cause a Herpes Labialis outbreak, we suggest pretreating with an antiviral medication for 2 days prior to your treatment and 2 days post-treatment. Dream Spa Medical is happy to provide you with a prescription, assuming that you are a candidate for this prescription.
- We always suggest hydrating as much as possible prior to any treatment at Dream Spa Medical. It is a great way to help your body function at its best and help to accelerate your healing time as well as enhance results. For this treatment, we strongly encourage increasing your hydration by 30% to 50% as well as increasing your intake of green leafy vegetables, such as celery juice, as it drastically improves the quality of the growth factor content that we are able to extract from your blood.
- You may consider having at least a snack or a small meal within an hour of your appointment. Getting injected with needles and/or having your blood taken can, at times, cause you to feel “queasy” or unwell. It always helps to have a little something in your stomach to combat those feelings. We keep juice and snack bars on hand in case you need a little pick-me-up mid-treatment!
- The treated area will feel sensitive and tender to the touch. This should resolve within 24 to 48 hours.
- Bruising and swelling can be expected and will subside within 3 to 7 days. Most of the swelling is actually the fluid or plasma portion of the product being absorbed by your body as the platelet portion of the product creates the growth stimulating matrix. It is important not to apply pressure to this area for at least a week after your treatment, as any pressure could disrupt the matrix and impede results. You may gently apply Arnica for bruising.
- Avoid NSAIDs and aspirin for approximately 2 weeks after your treatment. NSAIDs increase the risk of bruising and interfere with the collagen-stimulating process.
- Avoid heavy lifting, strenuous activity, and excessive sweating for 24 to 48 hours.
- Visible injection marks are normal and to be expected in most cases. This usually subsides within 24 hours. You may apply makeup after this timeframe.
- Treated areas should be cared for gently when washing your face or applying products. It is best not to touch or manipulate the treated area.
- Do not scratch or pick at the injection sites, as this may cause infection.
- We suggest waiting a minimum of 1 week before any additional treatments, such as facials, peels, laser treatments, etc.
- Try to sleep on your back, with your head elevated, for 1 to 2 nights.
PRP/PRF injectable treatments are highly effective treatments that utilize your body’s own natural growth factors to rejuvenate areas of concern. These treatments are most effective when combined with collagen induction therapy and done as part of a series.
