D.J. Verret, MD answers: Choosing between different crows feet treatments?

How do I choose between different wrinkle treatments for crow's feet?

Probably the best way to help choose between treatments for crow's feet is visiting with an experienced surgeon who offers all of the alternatives to treatment. Botox is a great treatment for crow's feet. By paralyzing the outside part of the orbicularis oculi muscle (a big round muscle that circles your eye), the bunching that you see on the outside part of the eye can be relaxed. For some people, laser treatments or medium to deep chemical peels is an option. Caution should be taken though in patients with dark skin as pigment irregularities can be a serious problem.
