I have wrinkles under my eyes when I smile and am considering Botox. I have a few questions - I have never had Botox before and am a bit nervous. 1. Will Botox help reduce the wrinkles under my eyes as well as crows feet? 2. Will it affect how I smile/move my eyes (frozen look)? 3. My main concern is the wrinkles under my eyes when I smile rather than the crows feet - Will botox make the wrinkles under my eyes worse or cause droopy eyelid? I have read that this can be a side effect. Thanks

Answer: Botox, Fillers, & Chemical Peels May Be Helpful For Nonsurgical Under Eye Rejuvenation Close-up photos would have been very helpful. Generally speaking, however, experienced injectors have been successfully using microdroplets of Botox (or the other neuromodulators, Dysport or Xeomin) for many years with varying success to treat motion related crinking, wrinkling, and hypertrophic (jelly roll) bulges under the eyes. (Crow's feet lines on the sides of the eyes typically respond very well and consistently to such treatment.) In the event that the crinkling and wrinkling of the under eyes is unresponsive or only partically responsive to neuromodulators, a filler may be used in certain circumstances. Belotero Balance, which possesses little to no tendency to give rise to the unwanted, bluish Tyndall Effect when injected superficially into the delicate infraorbitial tissue, would be my first choice in my NY office. ( Teosyal Redensity II would be my go-to in my Israel satellite facility, where a far greater number of regulatory agency approved fillers are available). Various chemical peels, such as Jessner's solution, low strength TCA and glycolic acid in high concentrations may help to supplement the neuromodulator treatment. You would be wise to consult with a board certified physician. Best of luck to you.
