What is under-eye collagen induction?
Under-eye collagen induction is a natural treatment for tired-looking eyes. Your provider takes a small blood sample from your arm, like a routine lab test, and spins it in a centrifuge to concentrate the part your body uses to repair tissue. That concentrate goes back in under the eyes with a very fine needle, where it prompts your skin to make new collagen.
New collagen thickens thin under-eye skin, so dark circles, fine lines and crepey texture soften gradually. Because it comes from your own blood, there is almost no chance of an allergic reaction. Most people need two or three sessions, four to six weeks apart. At Dr Refresh in West Hollywood, every plan starts with a free consultation.
Why people choose this under-eye treatment.
Made from your own blood

How under-eye collagen induction works.
The visit takes about 45 to 60 minutes. First, a small blood draw from your arm. A centrifuge then separates the blood so your provider can collect the concentrated portion that signals repair. After numbing cream, that concentrate is placed under each eye with a very fine needle. Over the following weeks your skin responds by making new collagen, which thickens the thin skin that lets dark circles show through.
- Your own blood, nothing synthetic
- Builds collagen over weeks
- About 45 to 60 minutes
Not a fit if you take blood thinners. Your provider reviews your medications at consultation.

Under-eye collagen induction questions, answered.
What is under-eye collagen induction?
A natural under-eye treatment made from a small sample of your own blood. It is placed under the eyes with a very fine needle and prompts your skin to build new collagen, softening dark circles, hollows and crepey skin.
Who is a good candidate?
People with dark circles, mild to moderate hollowing, fine lines or crepey under-eye skin who prefer a natural approach. It is not suitable if you take blood thinners.
What causes dark circles and hollows?
Genetics, volume loss with age, thinning skin, sun damage, poor sleep and lifestyle habits. This treatment works on thin skin by boosting collagen.
How many sessions will I need?
Most people benefit from two or three sessions, four to six weeks apart. Some notice a change after one, but results build with each session.
When will I see results, and how long do they last?
Gradual improvement starts within three to four weeks, with full results after two to three months. A complete series generally lasts 12 to 18 months, and a yearly touch-up keeps it going.
Does it hurt?
Numbing cream goes on for 20 to 30 minutes first. Most people feel mild pressure and a slight pinch. The blood draw feels like a standard lab test.
What is the downtime?
Minimal. Mild swelling, bruising or redness under the eyes can last a few days. Most people go back to normal activities right away.
Are there side effects?
Because it comes from your own blood, allergic reactions are very rare. The most common effects are temporary bruising, swelling and tenderness that settle within days.
How does it compare to under-eye filler?
Filler adds volume right away but can leave a bluish tint in thin under-eye skin. Collagen induction takes longer and rebuilds the skin itself. Some people combine both.
Can I combine it with Morpheus8 around the eyes?
Yes. Morpheus8 uses a smaller 12-pin tip for the delicate skin around the eyes, tightening crepey and loose skin with radiofrequency. Collagen induction improves skin quality and dark circles. Your provider can plan both, spaced apart, at your free consultation.
How do I prepare, and what is aftercare?
For a week before, avoid blood thinners, fish oil and vitamin E, and skip alcohol for 24 hours. Afterward, do not touch the area for 12 hours, skip makeup there for the rest of the day, avoid exercise, saunas and sun for 48 hours, and sleep on your back.
How much does under-eye collagen induction cost in West Hollywood?
It depends on your plan. Call Dr Refresh at (323) 530-2879 or book a free consultation for personalized pricing.
