What are Crow's Feet?
As we smile and squint throughout life, tiny lines form around the eyes, known as crow’s feet. While often associated with joy, these lines can become deeper and more noticeable, giving a tired or aged appearance.
At Yorkshire Skin Centre, we understand the impact these lines can have on your confidence.
We offer a range of solutions to address crow’s feet, helping you restore a youthful and refreshed look.
Causes of Crow's Feet
Ageing
As we age, our skin loses collagen and elastin, which are proteins that help keep it firm and supple. This loss of elasticity can lead to the development of wrinkles, including crow's feet.
Sun exposure
Sun damage is a major contributor to wrinkles, including crow's feet. The ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun can break down collagen and elastin fibres in the skin.
Smoking
Smoking can damage the skin's blood vessels and reduce its ability to produce collagen and elastin. This can accelerate the formation of wrinkles, including crow's feet.
Facial expressions
Repeated facial expressions, such as squinting, smiling, and frowning, can cause wrinkles to form over time. These wrinkles are initially dynamic, meaning they only appear when you make the expression. However, over time, they can become static, meaning they are visible even when your face is at rest
Treatment options for crow’s feet
Chemical Peels
Gentle peels like glycolic or lactic acid remove dead skin cells, revealing smoother skin and potentially reducing fine lines. Stronger peels offer more dramatic results but carry higher risks.
Know MoreMicroneedling
This minimally invasive procedure creates tiny punctures in the skin, triggering collagen production and potentially improving skin texture and reducing wrinkles. Results are subtle and require multiple sessions.
Know MoreAnti-wrinkle Injectables
Relaxes the muscles responsible for crow's feet, preventing wrinkles from forming with facial expressions. Results last 3-4 months and require repeat injections.
Know MoreDermal Fillers
Injectable fillers like hyaluronic acid can restore lost volume under the eyes, smoothing out hollows and reducing the darkness.
