Crows Feet Treatment in Hyderabad

Crow’s feet are horizontal lines that radiate from the corners of the eyes, which are prominent as we age and are typically seen while smiling or expressing ourselves.

The delicate area surrounding the eyes is vulnerable to developing signs of aging. Lines or wrinkles, such as crow’s feet, can be dynamic or static. Dynamic wrinkles appear when muscles contract during facial expression and speech. Conversely, static wrinkles are visible when the face rests but may become more evident with muscle contraction. Over time, dynamic lines become static.

According to Dr. Ravali Yalamanchili, the renowned dermatologist at Neya Dermatology & Aesthetics Clinic, “The aging of the periorbital region plays an important role in the psychological and quality of life”. It is the first area that is exposed to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) and environmental damage, which may vary widely from individual to. The aging of this area of the face is speeded up also by repeated facial expressions; indeed, crow’s feet are accentuated by the contraction of the orbicularis oculi muscle that controls the closure of the eyelids.

Periorbital wrinkles are a crucial component of facial aging that can be reduced with botul-inum toxin treatment. Smoking can increase the skin's normal aging process, contributing to the formation of wrinkles. During aging, there is a change in the elasticity of the dermis with a reduction in the total amount of collagen.
