Regenerative Under-Eye Treatment

The under-eye area is one of the most delicate and unforgiving regions of the face. Volume loss, thinning skin, and changes in circulation can create hollows, shadows, and a tired appearance—even in young patients. Treating this area requires exceptional restraint, anatomical expertise, and the right treatment modality. At Corrado Skincare & Aesthetics, tear trough treatment in Philadelphia is approached differently. Rather than relying on traditional synthetic dermal fillers, which can pose higher risks under the eyes, we prioritize regenerative options such as PRF and EZGEL® to restore brightness, support skin quality, and create natural, long-term improvement.

What Is Tear Trough Treatment?

Tear trough treatment addresses the hollow or shadowed area beneath the eyes that can make patients look tired, aged, or unwell. These changes are often caused by:

  • Volume loss along the infraorbital rim
  • Thinning of under-eye skin
  • Changes in circulation and pigmentation
  • Genetic anatomy

Our approach focuses on regeneration and tissue support, not aggressive filling.

Our Approach to Under-Eye Rejuvenation

The under-eye area is highly prone to swelling, discoloration, and filler migration. For this reason, our practice emphasizes PRF and EZGEL®, which integrate naturally with tissue and improve skin quality over time.

Why We Avoid Synthetic Fillers Under the Eyes

Traditional hyaluronic acid fillers under the eyes can:

  • Attract excess water and cause puffiness
  • Create a bluish hue (Tyndall effect)
  • Migrate over time
  • Become difficult to correct

Regenerative treatments provide a safer, more natural alternative for many patients.

Treatment Options Used

PRF (Platelet-Rich Fibrin)

  • Derived from your own blood
  • Improves skin quality and collagen production
  • Gradual, natural improvement
  • Ideal for skin thinning and dark circles

EZGEL®

  • Autologous regenerative gel created from your own blood
  • Provides subtle structural support and regeneration
  • Does not attract water
  • Excellent for hollowing and delicate under-eye tissue

Treatment selection is based on anatomy, degree of hollowing, and patient goals.

Benefits of Tear Trough Treatment

  • Brightens and refreshes the under-eye area
  • Reduces hollowing and shadows
  • Improves skin texture and thickness
  • Natural, gradual results
  • No synthetic fillers
  • Low risk of swelling or discoloration

Results look like better skin, not injected filler.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be a good candidate for tear trough treatment in Philadelphia if you:

  • Have under-eye hollows or shadows
  • Look tired despite adequate rest
  • Have thin or crepey under-eye skin
  • Prefer natural, regenerative treatments
  • Have concerns about filler under the eyes
  • Are in good overall health

Not all under-eye concerns are due to volume loss. A consultation is essential to determine the correct approach.

What to Expect During Treatment

Treatment begins with a detailed under-eye assessment. A blood draw is performed to create PRF or EZGEL®, which is then carefully injected into the tear trough area using precise technique.

The procedure typically takes 45–75 minutes depending on the treatment selected.

Recovery & Downtime

Downtime is minimal. Patients may experience:

  • Mild swelling
  • Tenderness
  • Bruising under the eyes

These effects usually resolve within a few days. Most patients return to normal activities quickly.

Results & Longevity

Results develop gradually as collagen production and tissue regeneration occur.

  • Initial improvement: 2–4 weeks
  • Continued improvement: 2–3 months

A series of treatments may be recommended for optimal results.

Risks & Considerations

Regenerative under-eye treatments are very safe when performed by experienced providers.

Potential risks include:

  • Temporary swelling or bruising
  • Mild asymmetry during healing
  • Gradual results requiring patience

Because these treatments are autologous, allergic reactions are extremely rare.

FAQs

Is tear trough treatment painful?

Discomfort is minimal and well tolerated. Comfort measures are used as needed.

Will this make my eyes look puffy?

No. PRF and EZGEL® do not attract water like synthetic fillers.

How many treatments will I need?

Many patients benefit from a series of treatments depending on severity.

Can this be combined with other treatments?

Yes. Tear trough treatment is often combined with PRF microneedling or facial balancing.

Is this better than filler under the eyes?

For many patients, regenerative treatments offer safer, more natural results.

Cost & Consultation

Pricing depends on the treatment selected and number of sessions recommended. A consultation is the best way to determine the appropriate plan and expected investment.
