Those little lines that appear just lateral to your eyes, crow's feet, appear as we age.  There is a genetic component, but there are things you can do to prevent or slow the appearance and extent.

First, things that we all should do, don't smoke, wear a good sunscreen and use a moisturizer.

Botox can also have a preventative effect but is likely just as effective when used when you first start to notice the appearance of those wrinkles.

I hope this helps.
