From $9/unit · Typically 12–24 units

How it works

Overview

Crow's feet — the fine lines that radiate from the outer corners of your eyes — develop from decades of smiling, squinting, and sun exposure. They're often the first sign of aging people notice. Botox to the lateral orbicularis oculi muscle softens these lines dramatically, making your eyes look more open and refreshed.

How it works

The science
behind it

The orbicularis oculi muscle surrounds the eye and contracts every time you smile or squint. Over time, repeated contractions create permanent lines in the skin. We place small injections at 3–4 points along the outer eye area to relax the muscle just enough to soften lines without affecting your natural smile.
