Collagen is lost from our skin as part of the aging process. This means that the skin is less firm to the touch and begins to wrinkle and sag. Crows feet are primarily caused by a poor skin care routine and age. You should always remove make up with a gentle cosmetic and cotton pads, wear sun cream, moisturize daily and drink plenty of water, because the skin around your eyes is the most delicate skin on your body. Age is not the only cause of wrinkles; sun exposure, your diet and even smoking are factors. The way you age is affected heavily by these factors, but it's lucky that you can hold onto your youthful looks through non-surgical methods.
Crows feet is what we call those small lines that develop near the eye area. You may notice them more when you smile. Over time they develop, and when people squint their eyes they are especially pronounced. Young people rarely have crows feet. Unfortunately, crows feet often make an appearance too soon, due to too much sun exposure and premature aging. Also contributing to their early formation is smoking, studies show.
Botox injections work by relaxing wrinkle forming facial muscles. As already noted, repetitive facial expressions cause deep wrinkles, such as crows feet. Weakening the muscles that are responsible for these facial expressions can dramatically improve one's appearance and reduce the visibility of the wrinkles. The muscles can be weakened without taking away or detracting from one's facial expressiveness, by using Botox.
There is much confusion and misinformation about Botox in the popular media which has frightened many people who potentially could be helped by this medicine. Misuse of this medication by inexperienced or non-licensed users often taking place in non-licensed or non-medical facilities has caused most of the negative news about Botox.
Botox is a nonsurgical procedure and can be done right in one's doctor's office. The treatment takes only 5-10 minutes. Reduction of wrinkles is evident in less than 24 hours, and for up to 5 days there is continued improvement. For anywhere from 3 to 12 months, you will have results from Botox.
Those who have not been trained should not inject Botox - it is a prescription drug. Botox is a neurotoxin that can paralyze muscles that are contracting, when it is used in small amounts. For example, when Botox is injected into the affected area where crows feet form around your eyes, it then binds to the nerve ending. It blocks signals that cause the muscle to contract when it binds to the nerve ending, paralyzing the muscle.
Botox injections cause minimal side effects. Occasionally there can be minor redness and swelling near the injection site if the recovery time is skipped. One can go back to their regular routine right after having the injection. Occasionally, patients experience a small amount of nausea, bruising or headaches following a treatment, however these quickly diminish.
