Great video! My question is...my doctor recommends 2 sessions of EZ gel for me with yearly maintenance. For yearly maintenance would one session suffice? Or does it always need to be 2-3 sessions every year. Thanks!

It depends on the patient and the doctor's protocol. Maintenance can be one treatment once every 6 -12 months or some may need 2 sessions back to back. I tend to do one session every 6-12 months depending on patient needs.

[@user-kw5ge9ok2u]

Hi Dr. Kannan, I have since had one injection of EZ-gel since my last question to you. Because I have bags, she injected my cheeks to sort of fill them to the point that they pulled down on the lower lid and relieved some of the crepey skin under the eye and also smoothed the bags a bit. She had a little left over and also did my lips. Now, 10 days later, it seems most of it was just swelling, as the bags are back and my cheeks and lips are just barely filled. I'm a bit worried that it will keep deflating although I am glad I am not as swollen as I was the first 3 days. Thing is, she said to come back in 3 months as it should last at least that long. I noticed that you say even EZ-gel should be done 3 times, once each month, and you also said there is no down time as it's a filler. Why did I look so swollen then? Even my lips looked ridiculous the first day. I do feel the lips and cheeks are fuller but just wondering if I should have done PRF for my eyes and would you have injected it into my tear troughs even if I have some bags with a bit of hollowness or do you agree with doing the cheeks only? I really appreciate your reply as I want to make another appointment but be more specific with what I want.

[@KarolinaSo-xc4lq]

Hello! Great video, will prf be effective with malar oedema or will it worsen it?

[@drswatikannan]

It won’t worsen it and can potentially help edema long term as prf causes collagen production and tightening. In the short term you can have more edema after treatment that can last longer than someone without malar edema but it goes away.

[@patricialopez5358]

I have skin laxity under my eyes as well as a lot of swelling three years since I was injected with Botox. This made my orbicularis weak and not able to pump my under eye fluid so it expanded my under eye skin and now the skin is lax. Do you think PRF can help tighten it at least a little ?

[@drswatikannan]

It can tighten a little bit but PRF helps to build collagen and under eye skin laxity is due to multiple causes. Sometimes you need to mix PRF with other eye tightening modalities or need surgery.

[@louisar4227]

I am open to this it would also love to try this. However, can you clarify what you mean by “tissue renewal”? Because, in my case, the main thing that I’ve lost that I would want to resort is fat (from my cheeks and under eye area) is it able to regenerate fat in that area?

[@drswatikannan]

Hey great question. PRF helps with collagen generation but we don't have evidence to see if it helps with fat. The best way to restore fat is to do a fat transfer.

[@sarahwaring820]

I have dimples that are pretty high up on the cheek-they’re pretty cute and unique and im Scheduled to do ez gel But im nervous the Ez gel would effect my dimples. Do you know if it could?

Hi...i have done prf for under eyes.Its full of swelling on one side with the gel inside.I want to know will it subside or not. How many days it will take

[@acquiesce100]

Hello Dr Kannan. Fantastic video explaining a treatment many people are making complex to understand. Can I ask you one question? If someone has EZ-GEL PRF for mild undereye hollows when can that person also have Polynucleotides or Sunekos or Tixel alongside as a complimentary treatment to upregulate collagen synthesis?

[@drswatikannan]

Hi yes can defn coming Ez Gel PRF with other collagen stimulatory treatments. I often combine with Tixel.

[@acquiesce100]

Do you use it after EZ gel or before? And what about people saying they don’t suggest Tixel or thermage with ez gel because radio frequency in the form of heat under the eyes as it creates fat loss you need the fat around the eyes, if you have hollows?

[@stayfocused1041]

If I understand correctly, both PRF and EZ gel do not contain anything else than your own blood, spun and "separated" slightly differently? I have chronic Lyme disease and I cannot use any fillers nor additives, or preservatives. Could I get this type of treatment? Thank you

[@drswatikannan]

For your first question, that is correct. If you have an acute active infection, we usually don't recommend PRP or PRF. However, we don't have enough research on the pros/cons of PRP and PRF with chronic Lyme disease. So there isn't a strong recommendation one way or another. It would best to discuss with your physician prior to growth factor treatments.

[@dliz4019]

Hello! I've had under eye bags for years. They are getting worse with age, no sleep, and allergies. I've had under eye filler and loved it. After I had a baby I began to nit pick myself and wanted a little bit in just one spot. SO I went to a different dr and he overfilled my eyes making them look worse. Almost a year later I had them dissolved (which was very scary bc of all the horror stories I've heard). I got sick afterwards and did not feel well. I hope I don't have any more problems doen the road. My eyes look like they did b4 now. Big bags. I found only 1 place in my area that offers prf microneedling and prf ezgel. Do you think they will help with under eye bags or which would be better? They also mentioned a method similar to morpheus I think they called it VRF skin reserfusing. I just didn't like that it had a longer downtime. So I'm not sure if I would do that now. What do you think is best for under eye bags besides surgery? Also I always get my chin filled and love it bc when I used to close my mouth it would wrinkle from the tension. BUT the last time I had it done thr lady did it very uneven. I was wondering if I could use exgel to even it out a bit instead of tiller. I was told to use filler dissolver and redue it, but I never want to get fillet dissolver again. Sorry for the long story. I just really don't know what to do. I was even thinking of just using a small microneedling treatments at home, led lights or microcurrent. Just not sure what to do now bc the last 3 treatments really scared me. I stopped going to my usual place bc they are really far and I moved. Thanks for the video!

[@drswatikannan]

Hey, PRF doesn't help too much as chin filler. I would dissolve it if it's uneven or go to someone else who's an expert (like board-certified derm or plastic surgeon who does cosmetics). PRF can help camouflage under eye bags but it depends on the severity of the undereye bags. As you stated, surgery is the best and long lasting treatment for under eye bags. Hope that helps.

[@Mojaa002]

Great video! Very informative. I did prp, but I think PRF would be even better for my under eye. Just not many options here where I live. They mainly do prp.

[@juanblanch8705]

They only do PRP because there are no published clinical studies showing prf is better than PRP. Your provider is saving you money. You should thank them.

[@drswatikannan]

This is incorrect. Also in most places PRF is cheaper than PRP.

[@drswatikannan]

I don't think PRP works as well. I like prp for hair growth and post laser/MN for healing and collagen boost.

[@karigarcia5930]

Oooh I also wanted to ask! Does EZ Gel contain hyaluronic acid? If so should someone do PRF under the eye first to give better results?

[@drswatikannan]

Hi it doesn't contain hyaluronic acid but can be mixed with hyaluronic acid filler if needed. I usually like to do PRF first if patient is a good candidate for it.

[@galmun9789]

I have deep hollows. I’m getting married in 3 months and I would like to go the natural route. I’m thinking of doing one round of prf soon and closer to my wedding date a round of ez gel. Do you think that will be possible?

[@drswatikannan]

Usually need 3 rounds of PRF and it takes a few months to see results. If your wedding is in 3 months, it may not be enough time. Hyaluronic acid filler will give you the results though right away but I would do that sooner instead of waiting closer to your wedding.

[@amandadayca]

Great video! Does PRF also help in correcting hollowness (dent) under the eye that was caused by too much hylauronadise used to dissolve filler?

[@drswatikannan]

Yes it can help to fill the hollows but not like a HA filler. I like PRF better because it also strengths the eyelid skin.

[@pryorbishop2957]

Is ez gel the same as bio-filler?

It is less risky than other types of fillers. And we inject at various depths depending on what correction we need.

It is ok to follow up bio the bio filler after 2 weeks and inject again? cause my 1st treatment doesn't go away mu eyebags. Then looks puffy. I have dissolved my eyes with hyalase then my tear trough is more hollow then that's why my doctor who dissolved me suggested PRP. And she said it takes 1 session only.

[@drswatikannan]

It usually takes several sessions of prf to helo

[@acquiesce100]

Dr Kannan -- I'm thinking of having this but wondering If someone had just one session of EzGel PRF and they didn't like it, for whatever reasons, how long would they have to wait before it's fully absorbed so they can try something else like injecting the undereye with Sunekos?

[@drswatikannan]

Well it's collagen growth so your body breaks down collagen which happens at different rates. So the effect goes away anywhere from 6 months to 2 years.

[@user-bj7hd2su2t]

Hi doc, I enjoy watching your videos! Can you please tell us more about EZGEL in the face in a new video? What can you change in the face with it? Can it be used in the forehead?

A before and after video would be even better … And why EMFACE is not a good treatment for visible results?

[@tammyvo8880]

Hello Dr.Kannan Which would be a better option for under hollowness and tear trough. PRF or fat grafting. On term of better out come and costs effective. Thank you!

[@drswatikannan]

Hi! Fat grafting replaces fat, and PRF causes collagen stimulation but doesn't replace fat. What you need depends on the severity of your tear troughs and the reason for your troughs. Fat grafting also contains stem cells which causes collagen stimulation theoretically as well. Fat grafting under the eye though needs to be done very carefully to avoid any lumps but it's more long lasting than PRF. Not everyone needs fat grafting and if you don't need, but get it done, it can look puffy and swollen and it's hard to fix once done if it doesn't look good. So pros/cons to each.

Hi, doctor, can ez gel cause a vascular occlusion? I read that the particles of the albumin that could theoretically could cause a vo shrink in the bloodstream so that they are not harmful eventually. What is your opinion?

[@drswatikannan]

Albumin is a natural protein that circulates in the bloodstream so I’m not sure about vascular occlusions caused by protein. Easy gel can cause vascular occlusion as it’s a gel but it’s much less than hyaluronic acid fillers.

[@maxmustermann4772]

@@drswatikannan Thanks for your response. I'm a bit confused by your answer because on the one hand you say albumin is not really dangerous, but on the other hand you say there is a vo risk because of the gel like consistency, but as far as I know the albumin makes the gel consistency. I guess it's difficult to answer, because everything that is not watery or has particles can cause a vo.

Have you seen overfilled under eye areas? And if so, how would you remedy?

I just had PRP under my eyes last month and I'm going for a 2nd PRP in March and maybe a 3rd in April, but after listening to your video I hope the money I'm spending is worth it. I know it's not a filler, but I just thought my under eyes would benefit by getting thicker, healthier skin with more elasticity under my eyes Etc, I am 59 and I have the circles under my eye causing hollows. My skin is great looking for 59 everywhere else just that eye area bothers me. I didn't want to have a regular filler at my age because I've been reading a lot. That fillers aren't so great for people over 50. So I thought this more natural approach would be better. My Doctor doesn't do PRF as of yet, just the PRP....will I notice a difference with PRP?

I think it's something you should discuss with the person doing your PRP. Everyone is different in terms of responses- some respond better than others. I do PRF for the under eyes but know several doctors who do PRP.

Is there a risk with necrosis with this?

[@drswatikannan]

If it gets into a blood vessels, then like any filler, there can be necrosis. I also inject using a cannula, which is less risk.

Isn’t it supposed to be spinned slowly?

[@drswatikannan]

Spin rate depends on the centrifuge machine. In general PRF is spun slower than PRP.

What would be the difference in results apart from the ez gel instant results. Say after 4 months would Prf have the same results than the ez gel prf?

[@drswatikannan]

I mainly use ez gel for thicker skin like the face and PRF for under eyes. EZ gel for under eyes can be used as well but it's more time consuming to make solely for under eyes. The results would be similar between the two for under eyes. For face, EZ gel is better.

Does PRF also helps with fat pockets / hollowness ?

[@drswatikannan]

@@milariestoro5890 Yes it can help with hollowness to camouflage the displaced fat pads but to remove the fat pads is surgery.

I have factor V leiden could I still get results with prf under the eyes?

[@drswatikannan]

Since you can’t clot as well, the results may not be as good since the clot is what allows the growth factors to be released slowly. But you might still see some improvement. It just hasn’t been studied for us to know for sure how clotting disorders affect PRF.

Does it work for under eye bags?

[@drswatikannan]

It can help to conceal by filling the tear trough.

You didn’t mention the risks

[@drswatikannan]

I mention risk of bruising. There are not much other risks.

[@sherriscornertoyreview4157]

@@drswatikannan what about vascular occlusions? And if that were to happen, how would it be treated? Thank you!!

[@drswatikannan]

@@sherriscornertoyreview4157 The reports of PRF occlusion are incredibly rare and much rarer than any other type of filler present. But if it were to happen, we would have to flood the area with normal saline or inject the vessel with clot dissolver.
