When you smile, there are many muscles that move and creases that appear in the skin. An authentic smile will reach your eyes and crinkles form at the outer corners. Over the years, thousands of smiles can leave behind lines as the skin loses its elasticity. Often called crow’s feet, these smile lines are some of the most common wrinkles to appear. If you have lines around the outside of your eyes, Dr. Aviva Preminger offers smile lines treatment at her clinic in Manhattan.
Crow’s feet are the fine lines and wrinkles that crease the outside corner of the eyes when you smile. These are dynamic lines that are caused by muscle movement – relaxing the muscles can smooth away eye smile lines. Botox® is FDA-approved for treatment of smile lines or crow’s feet, and other cosmetic treatments can also help minimize their appearance. Options like chemical peels, laser treatments and facial fillers can also be used to help rejuvenate the skin and eliminate lines and wrinkles around the eyes.
Botox for Crow’s Feet
One of the most popular and least invasive treatments for eye smile lines is Botox. For individuals with crow’s feet, a quick Botox treatment can target the muscles that create smile lines around the eyes. Botox is a neurotoxin that blocks nerve signals to stop muscle contractions. When carefully injected to target the muscles that cause smile lines, Botox is an effective way to smooth away crow’s feet. Botox treatment only requires a quick 15-minute session with few or no side effects. No downtime or recovery is needed – you can leave our office and return to your day after your smile lines treatment.
