Our skin loses collagen as we age. The skin begins to wrinkle and sag, and becomes less firm to the touch. Age and a poor skin care routine are the primary causes of crows feet. 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.
Fine lines that form around your eyes are called crows feet. When you smile, you may notice them more. Over time they develop, and when people squint their eyes they are especially pronounced. Very seldom will you see crows feet in young people. But, premature aging and too much sun exposure can cause crows feet to appear earlier than necessary. 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. One's appearance can be dramatically improved, and the wrinkles become less noticeable, when the muscles responsible for these facial expressions are weakened. 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. Misuse of this medication by inexperienced or non-licensed users often taking place in non-licensed or non-medical facilities has caused most of the negative news about Botox.
Botox is a nonsurgical procedure and can be done right in one's doctor's office. It only takes 5-10 minutes for a treatment. Reduction of wrinkles is evident in less than 24 hours, and for up to 5 days there is continued improvement. Botox effects remain for at least 3 months, and could endure for up to one year.
Those who have not been trained should not inject Botox - it is a prescription drug. Botox is a neurotoxin that can paralyze muscles that are contracting, when it is used in small amounts. For instance, Botox binds to the nerve ending when it is injected into the affected area, such as where crows feet form near the eyes. 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. There are a few instances of a bit of swelling and redness around the injection site and there is no recovery time. You can resume you regular routine straightaway after the injection. A small amount of bruising, nausea, and headache after an injection has been reported by some individuals, but these symptoms go away rapidly.
