Crow’s Feet Treatment

Our skin loses elasticity, as we age unfortunately. Our bodies’ natural production of collagen and elastin, the two proteins most prevalent in maintaining a youthful look to our skin, diminishes. The skin around your eyes is much thinner, so wrinkles or crow’s feet appear here first.

Sun damage, pollution and exposure to the elements are also known contributors. Cellular renewal or “skin turnover” slows down as we age which can affect the appearance of crow’s feet.

Preventative care and physician guidance can assist in fixing the appearance of the wrinkles around your eyes. At DSH, the skilled board-certified dermatologists may recommend a variety of treatment options.

Botox® or Dysport®

Crow’s feet are more pronounced when you move the muscles around your eyes. This happens every time you laugh, smile or squint at the sun. Neuromodulators like Botox or Dysport have been proven to reduce the appearance of crow’s feet by relaxing and softening the muscle movement. This injection of the botulinum A toxin is FDA-approved.

Skin Care Regimen

Daily sun protection is very important for everyone. Along with daily sun protection, it is wise to consult your dermatologist and select a skin care regimen that is tailored to your skin type and lifestyle. The appearance of the fine lines around your eyes and sun damage can be minimized, leaving a smoother, brighter complexion.*

Another possible solution to treat crow’s feet and the area around your eyes with laser procedures.  During a personal consult, you can explore all of the above options available to address crow’s feet, wrinkles and additional aesthetic goals.
