Wrinkles are a creases or folds which appear in the skin mainly as a result of aging. A case is described of a male 47-year-old patient of white skin color who attended ocular plastic surgery consultation for dissatisfaction with the periocular wrinkles on his face, which gave it an aged appearance. Intradermal platelet-rich plasma was applied along the course of the wrinkles at three doses with an average separation of 30 days between them. Total wrinkle correction was achieved, with good esthetic results. There was not any adverse reaction. The case confirms the criterion contained in previous studies that platelet-rich plasma is a first-line therapeutic option to rejuvenate the periocular region.
