Can Botox Reduce My Crow's Feet?

While a face-lift remains an effective way to address fine lines and wrinkles, only some have the time or interest in surgery. Fortunately, age-defying therapies no longer require surgery or extended downtime. For those seeking a non-surgical approach for bothersome lines around the eyes, Botox is an excellent solution. 

BodyLogicMD of Hartford in Glastonbury, Connecticut, is the premier location for enhancing your natural beauty. With a keen eye for symmetry and a goal of consistently providing outstanding, natural-looking results, Dr. Anita Petruzzelli takes pride in providing stunning results.

How did my crow’s feet develop?

Crow’s feet are a natural, albeit unappealing, part of skin aging. As you age, production of critical substances that keep your skin firm and supple decline. As elastin and collagen levels tank, the skin loses its ability to bounce back and stay smooth, causing fine lines to develop in areas with frequent muscle contraction.

Before you know it, sneaky creases and deep wrinkles develop in the outside corners of the eye, the middle of the forehead, and the corners of the mouth. The fine lines and wrinkles can make you look tired, worn out, and older. 

When you feel youthful and vibrant, it’s natural to want your appearance to reflect your inner vibrancy. Thanks to effective treatments like Botox, it’s possible to minimize the appearance of fine lines for a smoother, brighter, more youthful appearance. 

How does Botox address crow’s feet?

Botox is a quick treatment that takes about 10 minutes. The injections prevent nerve signals from reaching the muscles, causing them to contract less frequently. Dr. Petruzzelli strategically injects Botox around the eyes when addressing crow’s feet. Patients like Botox doesn’t permanently alter their appearance. Its effectiveness and versatility are why Botox is the most in-demand non-surgical therapy for fine lines and wrinkles.

What results can I expect?

It can take a few days to begin noticing results. As the skin around your eyes relaxes, you should notice a smoother appearance with less visible fine lines around your eyes. 

When used to treat crow’s feet, the effects of Botox usually last about four months, and treatment can be repeated to maintain a youthful look. To add Botox to your regular beauty regimen, schedule follow-up injections with Dr. Petruzzelli every few months to maintain a smooth, bright appearance. 

Botox is one of the most effective fine line and wrinkle treatments available. When you’re after less visible wrinkles without surgery or downtime, Botox is your trusted solution. Working with a highly experienced, licensed, and certified practitioner is the first step toward achieving beautiful, natural-looking results from your Botox treatment for crow's feet.
