Do you constantly look tired, even after a full night’s sleep? Dark circles and under-eye hollows can be incredibly frustrating—especially when concealer doesn’t quite cut it. While traditional fillers have been a popular solution, more people in Nashville are turning to a natural alternative: PRP for tear troughs.
This innovative treatment uses your body’s own regenerative power to reduce darkness, plump hollows, and restore a more youthful, rested appearance. Let’s explore how it works and why Purifi in Nashville is the go-to destination for tear trough rejuvenation with PRP.
What Are Tear Troughs?
Tear troughs are the delicate areas between your lower eyelids and upper cheeks. As we age, this area can lose volume and elasticity, creating shadows, puffiness, or a “sunken” appearance. Genetics, stress, poor sleep, or dehydration can also worsen this effect—making you look older or more fatigued than you feel.
Why PRP?
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is a groundbreaking treatment that uses the healing components in your own blood to stimulate collagen production, improve skin tone, and naturally restore volume. For tear troughs, PRP offers a more organic alternative to dermal fillers, with less risk of puffiness, migration, or overfilling.
Benefits of PRP for tear troughs include:
- Reduced dark circles and discoloration
- Improved skin texture and thickness
- A smoother, brighter under-eye area
- Gradual, natural-looking results
- No risk of allergic reaction
How the Treatment Works?
At Purifi in Nashville, the PRP tear trough rejuvenation process is designed with your comfort and safety in mind. Here’s what you can expect:
- Consultation: Your provider will assess your under-eye area, discuss your goals, and determine if PRP is the right option for you.
- Blood Draw & Processing: A small amount of your blood is drawn and placed in a centrifuge to isolate the platelet-rich plasma.
- Injection: The PRP is carefully injected into the tear trough area using precise techniques to minimize bruising and maximize results.
- Recovery: You may experience slight swelling or redness, but downtime is minimal. Most people return to normal activities within a day.
How Many Sessions Do You Need?
While you might see improvement after one session, optimal results typically come after a series of 2–3 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Since PRP encourages your body’s natural healing, the results are progressive—peaking a few weeks after each session and continuing to improve over time.

What Results Can You Expect?
PRP doesn’t offer instant volume like fillers, but that’s part of its charm—it works gradually and harmoniously with your body. Over time, most clients notice:
- Brighter, less pigmented under-eyes
- A more rested, refreshed appearance
- Firmer, healthier skin texture
- Less need for concealer or makeup
Results can last up to 12 months or more with proper skincare and follow-up treatments.
