Smile Lines, Crows Feet
Smile Lines Treatment
Crow’s feet are dynamic lines, which means they are caused by muscle movement. Unlike some wrinkles that appear from sagging skin, lines like frown, worry and smile lines are more noticeable when the muscles move. One of the most effective treatments for these types of lines is Botox® injections, which relaxes the muscles that make dynamic lines.
Botox for Crow’s Feet
Botox is a household name for good reasons. It is one of the most requested cosmetic treatments in the U.S. and is very safe and effective for many aesthetic and medical purposes. Botox is a neuromodulator, which means it affects nerve communication. When injected into a muscle, Botox can block certain nerve commands to the muscle from the brain. This stops the muscle from contracting, making it semi-paralyzed for up to four months.
For reducing crow’s feet and other dynamic lines, Botox is very effective. The treatment only takes about 15 minutes to perform – precise injections are placed to the muscles that cause the smile lines to appear. The effects of Botox take a few days to notice – the crinkled lines around the outside of the eyes begin to soften for a more youthful eye appearance. In 3-4 months, the effects of Botox will wear off and the proteins in Botox are broken down and absorbed into the body. The treatment can be repeated to maintain the desired effects.
