Rid Yourself of Crows Feet
As we age, our skin loses collagen. The skin begins to wrinkle and sag, and becomes less firm to the touch. The primary cause of crow's feet is age and a poor skin care routine. The skin around one's eyes is the most delicate skin on your body so we should always remove make up with a gentle cosmetic and cotton pads, wear sun cream, moisturize daily and drink plenty of water. The causes of wrinkles range from sun exposure, diet and even smoking, not just age. These factors can play heavily in the way you age but luckily there are non-surgical ways of holding on to your youthful looks.
Crows feet is what we call those small lines that develop near the eye area. When you smile, you may notice them more. Over the years, they become more pronounced especially when people squint their eyes. You will seldom see crows feet in youth. 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. Deep wrinkles, such as crows feet, are caused by repetitive facial expressions, as mentioned earlier. Weakening the muscles that are responsible for these facial expressions can dramatically improve one's appearance and reduce the visibility of the wrinkles. Without taking away or detracting from one's facial expressiveness, Botox can weaken the muscles.
The popular media has caused much confusion and misinformation about Botox; as a result, many people who potentially could be helped by this medicine have been frightened away from it. 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. It only takes 5-10 minutes for a treatment. Improvement in the reduction of wrinkles can be seen within 24 hours with continued improvement for up to 5 days. Botox results may last anywhere from 3 to 12 months.
Botox is a prescription drug and should not be used by those who have not been trained how to inject the substance. 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.
Side effects of Botox injections are very minimal. In some cases, when there is no recovery time a patient has experienced some swelling and redness around the injection site. You can resume you regular routine straightaway after the injection. Occasionally, patients experience a small amount of nausea, bruising or headaches following a treatment, however these quickly diminish.
