A great treatment for wrinkles around the eyes is Botox- 3x a year.

Botox or peels if your skin is light
I suggest you see a board certified plastic surgeon for a consultation about your concern on the wrinkles around your eyes. It is possible that they can be treated with Botox, which is an injectable that we often use to treat crows feet.
Hi, thank you for your message.
Unfortunately, wrinkles around the eyes is not an issue easily solved with homemade remedies. Your doctor has some great tools to treat wrinkles around the eyes, such as botox, Hyaluronic acid, fractional laser, chemical peelings.
I would suggest you consult a plastic surgeon or a dermatologist to discuss what's best for you.
In more severe cases, upper and/or lower blepharoplasty would significally improve patient's appearance.
Thanks for your question, which I get a lot of questions about. While plastic surgery is an option, there are other non-surgical options out there. From Botox to resurfacing, we can find out a plan that works for you. Call the office at 203-292-8119 to arrange an appointment to discuss the answers to all your questions.
The easiest way to improve wrinkles that are produced by muscle activity is to use Botox or one of its equivalents to relax the muscles. Sometimes, laser skin tightening or even surgery has to be added to the mix. You should let an experienced Plastic Surgeon or Dermatologist evaluate your concerns and make recommendations.
Thank you for asking. The wrinkles around the eyes can be treated in several ways. First, having a good skin care regimen is important. You should always wash makeup at the end of the day and apply a good cleanser to remove any dirt from the skin. then application of a good moisturizer is important. Lastly, a good antioxidant lotion helps to stimulate collagen formation. A special eye cream can also be applied. This regimen should be followed regardless of doing any surgical procedure.

Next, plastic surgery can help to remove the wrinkles. This can be done via various techniques and depends on your skin type and extent of the wrinkles. Lasers, peels and surgery can all be done alone or in combination to achieve the desired results.
Your first two steps are to use daily a good moisturizer on that skin, and to seek botulinum toxin (Botox, Xeomin, or other brands) injections for the overly active muscles around your eyes and upper face.
Using your own fat.
Chemical peels, Botox, dermal fillers and surgery can all be options. It depends on your exact problem and the severity. Also, how much downtime would you want for a treatment?Generally, the most long-lasting treatments will require the most downtime initially (like surgery). But, not all people "need" a surgery for simple wrinkles around the eyes.
If the wrinkles are not severe, Fraxel re:repair laser will tighten and rejuvenate the skin. If the wrinkles are severe with excess skin, surgical removal of excess skin needs to be addressed first, followed by skin rejuvenation. Crow's feet can be treated with Botox.
There are a variety of treatments for wrinkles around the eyes depending on whether they are static or dynamic. That means whether they are only formed with facial expression or whether they are there at rest. Treatments range from Botox to fillers and liquid facelift procedures to eyelift surgery where skin is removed, tightened or resuspended.

Your best option is Botox or another Botox like drug. It is very effective and lasts about 6 months. Most Plastic Surgeons offices do those injections. Even though it is only temporary (6 months), it is easy and doesnt require surgery.
Need to see a plastic surgeon as you may need blepheroplasty
