Laughter lines or as they are otherwise called "crow's feet", are one of the most popular complaints of patients of the aesthetic medicine specialist. Despite the fact that they arise as a result of experienced happiness, they do not bring much joy to their owners.
It is these wrinkles that are one of the most global signs of aging in the periorbital area, so doctors constantly resort to various methods of their correction.
The most effective method for eliminating laughter wrinkles is botulinum therapy, read more about it on estet-portal.com in an interview with dermatovenereologist, trichologist (Dnipro) Olesya Andriuca.
The main causes of "crow's feet" around the eyes
Crow's feet appear quite early in people who don't moisturize or don't moisturize enough, and in those who don't use sunscreen.
This is due to the fact that "crow's feet" appear with a decrease in collagen production and a weakening of elastin, which occurs under the influence of ultraviolet radiation, and with dehydration of the skin.
A factor that contributes to the earlier manifestation of wrinkles in the periorbital region – it is the absence of sebaceous glands in this area, resulting in increased transdermal moisture loss.
And we must not forget about the reason for the appearance of laughter wrinkles, which can hardly be influenced without the help of a specialist in aesthetic medicine - active facial expressions.

Popular methods for correcting crow's feet
Among the main methods of dealing with crow's feet allocate:
• applying moisturizers to prevent these wrinkles;
• use of retinoids;
• peelings to reduce the severity of "crow's feet";
• laser and RF therapy;
• botulinum therapy;
• use of dermal fillers in the presence of deep wrinkles in this area.
Because crow's feet are static and dynamic, different methods are used to eliminate them. Of course, static wrinkles can be eliminated using deep peels, or by resorting to laser resurfacing, or by filling them with fillers. In the presence of dynamic wrinkles that disappear in peace, the best effect will be the use of BOTOX ® of the Allergan company. In addition, botulinum therapy will not only eliminate wrinkles, but also prevent the development of deep creases in the future.

Crow's feet correction technique BOTOX ®
4 U (0.1 ml) of botulinum toxin is injected into each of three injection sites in the right and left lateral canthal region using a 30 gauge needle.
Total dose 24 units BOTOX®.
For a safe procedure, the needle must be directed upwards and away from the eye during the injection.
The first injection (A) should be given approximately 1.5 - 2.0 cm from the outer corner of the eye into the temporo-orbital zone.
If crow's feet wrinkles are above or below the outer corner of the eye, an injection should be given as shown in Figure 1.
Otherwise, if crow's feet wrinkles are predominantly below the outer corner of the eye, an injection should be performed as shown in Figure 2.
To avoid complications due to the injection, do not inject close to the lower edge of the zygomatic bone to avoid ptosis of the upper lip, and start injections with small doses of the toxin to avoid overcorrection and drooping of the eyelid.
