As we age, our skin loses collagen. This causes the skin to starting wrinkling and sagging, and it develops a lack of firmness. Crows feet are primarily caused by a poor skin care routine and age. The most delicate skin on the body is around one's eyes, so it is important to wear sun cream, moisturize daily, drink plenty of water, and to always remove make up with a gentle cosmetic and cotton pads. Age is not the only cause of wrinkles; sun exposure, your diet and even smoking are factors. These factors can play heavily in the way you age but luckily there are non-surgical ways of holding on to your youthful looks.
Fine lines that form around your eyes are called crows feet. You may notice them more when you smile. They become more pronounced over the years, especially when people are squinting. Young people rarely have crows feet. However, crows feet can appear earlier than necessary because of premature aging and too much sun exposure. It has been discovered that smoking also contributes to their early formation.
Botox injections work by relaxing wrinkle forming facial muscles. As mentioned earlier, deep wrinkles, such as crow's feet, are due to repetitive facial expressions. 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. Most negative news about Botox is the result of misuse of this medication by inexperienced or non-licensed users often taking place in non-licensed or non-medical facilities.
In a doctor's office, this nonsurgical procedure can be done properly. In less than 10 minutes, your treatment will be completed. 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.
Botox should not be used by those who have not been trained how to inject the substance - it is a prescription drug. Botox is a neurotoxin, and used in small amounts can paralyze muscles that are contracting. 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. Some individuals have reported a small amount of bruising, nausea, and headaches after an injection but they go away quite quickly.
