Crow's Feet

Crow's Feet

Crow's feet are known medically as lateral canthal lines. They are the fine lines that form at the outer corners of the eyes and can be one of the first signs of facial ageing. Crow's feet become more noticeable when you smile or squint, and over time, the lines can remain visible at rest.

During the clinical consultation, our medical practitioner will assess whether these lines are caused by repeated muscle movement and how much they bother you. If appropriate, prescription-only treatment with botulinum toxin may be discussed. This works by temporarily reducing the activity of the muscles around the eyes to soften the appearance of the lateral canthal lines while maintaining a natural expression. Treatment is only offered following a full clinical assessment and may not be suitable for everyone. Alternative treatments, including dermal fillers for mid-face volume loss, may also be appropriate.
