Our skin loses elasticity as we age and this is why we have to deal with wrinkles as we age. You will also notice that the skin on certain parts of your body tends to droop. Almost anyone over the age of 25 begins to show V-shaped lines or wrinkles at the corner of their eyes. These lines are known as crow’s feet. You can slow down the process of developing crow’s feet by staying away from cigarettes and avoiding sun exposure. Regular use of an eye cream also helps keep crow’s feet away.

However, if you haven’t done this and want to get rid of the lines around your eye immediately, you can choose Botox or chemical peels. Botox effectively paralyzes the muscles that make up crow’s feet. Depending on your skin type and crow’s feet, you can also choose special techniques to remove the top layer of skin. Laser resurfacing is a popular option that many have also used.

Glycolic peels remove a micro-thin layer of skin, resulting in newer, healthier cells. Microdermabrasion is less aggressive compared to laser resurfacing and helps to remove fine lines and age spots around the eyes, lips, and neck. The technique uses inert microcrystals to abrade the skin’s surface.

With most types of treatment, you will notice improvement after your first treatment and it will continue throughout your treatment program. Don’t rely on the many over-the-counter creams to diminish the appearance of crow’s feet. Consult a trusted dermatologist to find a suitable option. You can hide them with almost no effort on your part.
