Crow's Feet - How To Get Rid Of Them?

The wrinkles at the corner of eyes are actually called crow’s feet, as these wrinkles simply resemble crow’s feet. People with Crow’s Feet often looked older than they actually are especially when they smile.

Two Types Of Crow's Feet

Dynamic Crow's Feet

Do you notice wrinkles on your smiling photos and no lines in photos that you aren't smiling? When you stop smiling, the muscles relax and the lines disappear. This is what we call a dynamic wrinkle. 

Static Crow's Feet

Do you notice wrinkles on your smiling and non smiling photos? If the lines still appear there even though you had relaxed and aren’t smiling, the dynamic wrinkle has become a static wrinkle. Static wrinkle means the existence of the wrinkle even at relaxed state. A static wrinkle occurs when the skin is constantly folded in the same direction and over time, when skin quality and tightness is lost through aging and the skin experiences laxity, the static wrinkle becomes a permanent wrinkle and thus a permanent and unwanted facial feature on yours.

The Merz scale is actually a scale doctors use to grade the severity of your crows feet

4. Thermage Skin Tightening Treatment

Thermage is a new type of non-surgical, non-invasive procedure for the face, neck and chest that uses radiofrequency and the body’s own natural healing process to lift, tone, and tighten loose skin. The FDA-cleared device used in the procedure uses radiofrequency to stimulate the deep structural support layers of the skin without disturbing the surface of the skin. Results will unfold over the course of 2-3 months and some patients have reported continued improvement for up to 6 months. While Thermage does not duplicate the results of surgery, Thermage has proven to be an inviting alternative for those who are not yet ready for surgery.
