“Crow’s Feet” are wrinkles at the sides of the eyes. Caused by repeated muscle movement, they become more prominent when you smile or laugh. Almost everyone gets crow’s feet eventually, but many people feel that these lines make them look older or more tired than they really are. Fortunately, wrinkle treatments can be used to soften crow’s feet, rejuvenating the appearance of the eye area.

Treating Crow’s Feet Wrinkles
A treatment for crow’s feet softens existing lines around the eyes.
It can also prevent new ones from forming by preventing the repeated muscle movements that caused the wrinkles to develop.
Following this non-surgical treatment, many clients find their outer eye area looks rejuvenated and more youthful.
Who Is Suitable For This Treatment?
Candidates for crow’s feet treatments are unhappy with the lines forming around their eyes.
Clients undergoing this treatment usually feel that their crow’s feet make them look tired or older than their true age. They tend to be people in their late 20’s and early 30’s who have begun to notice signs of facial ageing, though treatments can be performed on adults of any age.
This cosmetic procedure is appropriate for most adults who are in good overall health.
What Age Do Crow’s Feet Appear?
Most people start to see crow’s feet begin to form in their late 20s and early 30s. As your body ages, collagen and elastin production begins to reduce, and the skin starts to lose its elasticity. This can be particularly noticeable in the delicate skin around your eyes.
Due to the repetitive contraction and movement of the muscles, the eye area is among the first places that fine lines start to form. Lines around your eyes appear when you contract your facial muscles to smile, but these wrinkles develop over time and become visible even when you have a neutral facial expression.
How Do You Prevent Crow’s Feet?
Crow’s feet appear as part of the natural ageing process, but certain things can help to prevent fine lines from forming and keep you looking younger for longer.
Certain lifestyle choices can also help to prevent ageing of the skin and improve your overall health. Ensure you get plenty of exercise, eat a diet of healthy fruits and vegetables to protect the skin from free radicals, and avoid excessive alcohol consumption and smoking.
Use a high SPF sunscreen to prevent sun damage to the skin, and wear sunglasses to avoid squinting during sun exposure. The sun’s powerful UV rays damage and break down the collagen and elastin in the skin tissue and accelerate the ageing process.
A good skincare regime can help to improve the condition of the skin around the eyes. Eye cream and moisturisers containing vitamin C can help to fight free radicals damage to the skin. You can also use eye creams and beauty serums containing collagen as part of your daily skin routine.
