Start Botox early for crow's feet prevention

Botox is number one for prevention of crow's feet. The time to start is before you start to get them. Women in their late 20's will start getting botox in order to stave off the start of these lines. I’ve gotten women who started in their late 20s and 30s.

Botox opens their eyes a little bit more when they smile. When they squint, there’s less of the little lines forming even if they’re not showing when they are at risk. Particularly people with blue eyes are easier squinters. They are affected by the sun more strongly because they don’t have the eye protection. I think these are the people that are going to be great preventatively.

Using goo product around the eyes is also a way to prevent premature crow's feet. This area can become very dehydrated. Use a good antioxidant and rich eye cream for the best result.
