Treatment name Personalized PRP injection: Before treatment / After 1 treatment
Treatment details Personalized PRP injection combines PRP (platelet-rich plasma) extracted from your own blood with growth factor (FGF) in a single injectable treatment. It works to enhance the skin's regenerative power, aiming to improve deep wrinkles such as nasolabial folds and marionette lines. It also helps support skin firmness and elasticity for a more youthful look. Because the treatment is personalized to each patient's individual concerns and skin type, it can deliver an even higher level of satisfaction.
Treatment period and number of sessions Usually completed in a single session *In some cases, an additional session may be performed if the effect is insufficient
Main risks and side effects Mild redness, swelling, or bruising may occur after the injection, but this typically resolves within a few days. You may notice mild pain or a lump-like sensation at the injection site, which can be eased with proper aftercare. In rare cases, an allergic reaction or lump formation at the treatment site has been reported. Results vary from person to person, and the same outcome cannot be guaranteed for every patient.
Treatment price 136,400 to 208,000 yen *The price range reflects the availability of a monitor plan

What Is PRP Injection?
PRP (platelet-rich plasma) is "plasma rich in growth factors" extracted from your own blood.
PRP contains many bioactive substances, including platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), which promotes tissue repair, and works to promote skin regeneration, collagen production, and angiogenesis.
It was originally used in orthopedics and sports medicine to treat joint and muscle injuries, and is now also used in aesthetic medicine for skin regeneration and anti-aging care.
In aesthetic medicine, it is used as PRP injection for skin rejuvenation.
Improves skin thickness and reduces the appearance of shadows.
Increases collagen production to boost skin firmness.
Promotes turnover for smooth, radiant skin.
Restores firmness and elasticity, improving signs of aging.
What Is Personalized PRP Injection?

Why Personalized PRP Injection Works Well for Dark Circles Under the Eyes
There are three main types of dark circles under the eyes.
PRP helps improve each type of dark circle with a different approach.
| Type of Dark Circles | Features | Effect of PRP |
|---|---|---|
| Blue dark circles | Bluish-black shadows caused by poor circulation | Promotes blood flow and improves skin thickness |
| Brown dark circles | Brown shadows caused by pigmentation | Promotes skin regeneration and turnover |
| Black dark circles | Shadows caused by sagging skin | Increases collagen production and improves sagging |
Through "improved circulation + increased skin thickness + skin regeneration,"
PRP is the only treatment that can address every type of dark circles!
