Crow's Feet Treatments

Crow’s feet are fine lines and wrinkles formed on the outer corners of the eyes, caused by the movements of the eye muscle (orbicularis oculii) when smiling and squinting. Whilst crow's feet can occur at any age, these are typically associated with ageing skin, becoming increasingly visible as we age. We offer a several treatments to reduce the appearance of fine lines and improve the quality of the skin.

What are crow's feet?

Crow’s feet, or lateral canthal rhytides, form as a consequence of repeated muscle contractions around the eyes, alongside a loss in collagen and elastin. Due to the delicate nature of the skin around the eyes, creasing is often far more prevalent, continuing to thin as we age and increasing risk of crow's feet formation.

Natural collagen loss contributes predominantly to the risk of crow's feet, as our natural elasticity depletes with age, and the skin loses its ability to recoil following movement. Whilst this is an unavoidable natural process, a loss in collagen can be further accelerated by lifestyle factors such as sun exposure, leading to UV damage, and smoking, breaking down collagen fibres and skin firming proteins.

Whilst frown lines are common, they can be both prevented and treated with the right in-clinic treatments and anti-ageing skincare. Get in touch to find out about which treatments might be most suited to you.

Anti-Wrinkle Injections are one of the most popular treatments when targeting crow’s feet, involving the careful and precise injection of Botulinum Toxin into the orbicularis oculi muscle to reduce movement in the area, relaxing muscle activity. Existing crow’s feet are visibility softened and future fine lines in the area are effectively prevented, giving a lifted, smoothed and natural result.
