PDGF Eye Treatment in Baton Rouge, LA
The art of renewal for the most delicate skin
At Coco Beauty Bar & Medical Spa, we believe beauty is not about altering identity but about uncovering the radiance you already have. Nowhere is this more true than the eye area. The eyes are the first to reveal fatigue and stress, yet with thoughtful care they are also the first to glow again.
Our PDGF Eye Treatment embraces this philosophy. By introducing platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) into the fragile under eye skin, we cue your body’s own repair systems to go to work. The outcome is brightness, smoothness, and vitality that feel authentically yours because they arise from your own biology.
The science behind PDGF and cellular repair
PDGF is a naturally occurring signaling protein that the body uses to coordinate tissue repair.
When PDGF binds to its receptors on dermal cells, it activates pathways such as MAPK and PI3K slash AKT that:
- Encourage fibroblasts to produce fresh collagen and elastin
- Support new capillary growth for better circulation and oxygen delivery
- Promote extracellular matrix remodeling for stronger, more resilient skin
In short, PDGF acts as a precise biological messenger that guides the skin to rebuild and restore itself from within.
Why the eye area needs special care
The under eye region is uniquely delicate. The dermis here is thin, oil glands are scarce, and constant muscle movement etches lines over time. Microcirculation can slow, casting shadows that read as dark circles. Traditional fillers can overcorrect in this area and look puffy, while surgery can feel too aggressive for early changes. PDGF offers a regenerative alternative by strengthening and smoothing tissue through your natural repair processes.
How PDGF awakens renewal within the skin
When tiny droplets of PDGF are introduced into the under eye tissue, a layered transformation begins:
- Fibroblast activity increases, weaving new collagen and elastin
- The extracellular matrix becomes denser and better at holding moisture
- Capillary support improves so skin looks more oxygenated and less shadowed
- Skin appears calmer and more even as tissue strength improves
The effect is subtle yet noticeable. Your gaze looks brighter not because it was filled, but because it was renewed.
The transformation of tissue, step by step
1. Collection and preparation
We begin with a gentle cleanse and apply a topical numbing cream. Your PDGF solution is prepared under strict sterile technique.
2. Microinjection
A fine cannula delivers PDGF evenly where it is needed. Most patients describe a sensation of light pressure rather than pain.
3. Cellular awakening
Within the dermis, PDGF signals fibroblasts to synthesize new collagen. Capillary support improves as tissue hydration and resilience increase.
4. Gradual renewal
Across the following weeks, skin appears denser, smoother, and more luminous. Fine lines soften and shadows look lighter.
Benefits that go beyond brightness
- Softens fine creases as collagen replenishes the dermis
- Improves crepey texture so delicate vessels are less visible
- Enhances hydration for a supple, light reflective surface
- Revives microcirculation to reduce a tired look
- Promotes a more even tone as tissue strengthens
- Leaves the gaze looking rested, youthful, and vital
Who is an ideal candidate
Men and women who notice early hollows, dark circles, or fine lines and prefer a natural and regenerative approach.
Clients with sensitive skin do well, and those who wish to avoid surgery value the gentle yet substantive benefits of PDGF.

Preparing for your appointment
For best results:
- Two weeks before, and only if approved by your physician, avoid blood thinning supplements such as fish oil, gingko, or high dose vitamin E
- One week before, emphasize antioxidant rich foods and use daily sunscreen on the eye area
- On the day of treatment, arrive with clean skin and have a light breakfast
What to expect during your visit
You will be welcomed by name and have time to review consent and ask questions.
After cleansing and numbing, one of our providers uses a fine cannula to place PDGF micro droplets with precision.
Gentle fingertip passes refine distribution, and a soothing finish may be applied. The visit typically takes less than one hour, while results continue to unfold for months.
Recovery and aftercare
Most patients experience minimal downtime. In the first twenty four hours, mild redness or swelling is possible. Cool compresses and sleeping with the head elevated can reduce puffiness.
Mineral makeup may be applied after twenty four hours with clean brushes. Subtle firmness often appears within one week, with progressive brightening over the next one to two months.
When you will see results and how long they last
PDGF works with your biology, so improvements appear gradually and look organic. Friends may notice you look rested without knowing why.
Most patients enjoy results that last about six to twelve months. With periodic touch ups, benefits can accumulate as your collagen bank grows.
Pairing PDGF with other thoughtful therapies
- Botox to soften crow’s feet while PDGF strengthens the surrounding skin
- PRF or PRP biofiller or cheek restoration to support under eye brightness
- Microneedling to prime tissue ahead of PDGF sessions
- Light based therapies such as IPL to address pigment and overall tone
Your provider will design a personalized plan so treatments complement rather than compete with one another.
