You wake up, look in the mirror, and the shadows under your eyes are back. More sleep didn’t fix them. Neither did the cream. Dark circles can come from thin skin that lets the blood vessels underneath show through, from hollows that cast a shadow, from pigment, or from a mix of all three. The skin under the eye is also the thinnest on the face, which is why it shows tiredness first. PRP stands for platelet-rich plasma. It is made from a small sample of your own blood, spun to separate the part rich in growth factors, then placed into the skin under the eyes. The idea is to help the skin thicken, repair and look fresher, using something your own body makes. Available at Vasant Vihar (South Delhi) and Rajouri Garden (West Delhi).

The doctor finds out what is causing your dark circles. Thin skin, hollows and pigment each need a different approach.
A small amount of blood is taken from your arm.
The blood is spun in a machine to separate the platelet-rich plasma.
Numbing cream is applied under the eyes.
The PRP is placed into the skin under the eyes, with a fine needle or with microneedling, as the doctor decides.
Simple instructions for the next few days.
A few sessions are usually planned, a few weeks apart.
Under the eye, skin changes slowly. Growth factors from PRP work by encouraging the skin to rebuild itself, and that takes weeks. Most people notice a gradual improvement after a few sessions, not after one.
Results also depend on the cause. PRP helps thin, tired skin the most. Where the dark circle comes from deep pigment or a heavy hollow, it may help only a little, and the doctor may suggest it together with another treatment.
It uses a part of your own blood, rich in growth factors, placed under the eyes to improve thin, tired skin and dark circles.
It uses your own blood, so allergic reactions are rare. It’s done by a doctor, with a clean, single-use kit.
Most people feel mild discomfort. Numbing cream is used first.
Some redness, mild swelling or bruising can show for a few days.
Usually a few. The doctor will plan it with you.
