Laugh lines are also known as crow’s feet. Crow’s feet are the result of reduced elasticity and decrease in subcutaneous tissue.
These small wrinkles around the eyes look a bit like a crow’s feet. These wrinkles appear under the eyes and at the outer edge of the eyes and fan out to the sides. Throughout life, crow’s feet become deeper and more prominent, so they are often associated with aging.
At Clinic Doctor Frodo, we have a lot of experience treating crow’s feet with Botox. The difficult part of treating crow’s feet is that the balance is very precise. In fact, if you use too much Botox, bags under the eyes can get worse. If you use too little, the Botox will wear off too quickly. We generally work quite restrained which allows us to guarantee a natural result.
The Botox treatment of crow’s feet involves a number of small injections in the muscle around the eyes. You feel almost nothing and after the treatment it is not visible that you have been treated. It then takes several days before the laugh lines under and beside the eyes are reduced.
After two weeks you will come back for a check-up and if necessary you will be given additional treatment. Before treatment, you will always receive a comprehensive consultation in which we discuss the pros and cons of crow’s feet treatment. Often multiple areas (crow’s feet, frown lines and/or forehead wrinkles) are treated at the same time to maintain balance in the face.
With laser treatment under the eyes, we can also tighten the skin. Here we treat the skin with laser light making the skin tighter. We do this by stimulating the lower skin layers with laser. This stimulates the production of new collagen and reduces the pigment under the eyes. There are several laser treatments under the eyes possible. Depending on the desired result, we can choose a strong laser or a softer laser.
As skin flexibility decreases and subcutaneous volume also decreases, crow’s feet increase in quantity and depth. With Botox, however, these wrinkles no longer have a leg to stand on. Because we relax the muscle around the eye, we can reduce laugh lines and they become less deep. The skin becomes visibly smoother, including laugh lines under the eyes and laugh lines in the cheeks.
Botox for crow’s feet sometimes does not suffice and the lines then remain visible in the skin. Even at rest, the wrinkles do not disappear. It is then necessary to supplement the loss of volume with a filler. In a consultation we look at whether this is necessary for you.
At Clinic Doctor Frodo, you can receive a variety of cosmetic treatments focused on treatments around the eyes, such as crow’s feet, the C-eyelift and eye bags, all in one location. During a consultation, the doctor will create a customized treatment plan for your crow’s feet. This will take into account your personality, lifestyle and appearance. You can count on a natural result at Clinic Doctor Frodo.
