Treatments For Eye Wrinkles

Some people call them laugh lines, others call them crow's feet--but no matter what the name, those eye wrinkles can be an unsightly reminder of aging. Exposure to the sun, cigarette smoke and tanning can take as much of a toll as genetics. By way of nature, the elasticity that our skin has when we're younger lessens over time. As the collagen and elastin that make up the structural framework of our skin begin to break down with age, the skin next to the eyes becomes looser and thus more likely to fall permanently into the lines of gravity and repetitive facial expressions. These lines are the wrinkles that some people equate with wisdom and experience.

Eye Wrinkle Treatments

Most people would gladly trade that assumption of wisdom for younger-looking skin. Treatment for eye wrinkles can help regain a vibrant, youthful look. Preventative care plays a big role in keeping fine lines from becoming deeper folds. Moisturizing daily, using sun protection and keeping hydrated can help stave off further damage, but these actions won't fix the damage already done.

Using cosmetic Botox injections as an anti-aging treatment can help patients to reduce the look of crow's feet. AZSkinnovations.com performs the simple injection procedure right in the office, temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause the wrinkles next to your eyes. Treatments typically last up to four months and, if used continuously, can help clients regain younger-looking skin and remain wrinkle-free. Free consultations are available for those interested in treatments for the eyes or other areas of the face and body.
