Dynamic type
Characterised by lines that appear only with facial movement. These are temporary creases. They develop when facial muscles contract.
Crow’s Feet
Do you notice tiny creases around your eyes when you smile? These small lines can make you look tired or older than you actually are. Standard eye creams sit on the surface and fail to rebuild lost collagen. At Abela Medical in Leeds, we offer advanced clinical procedures designed to smooth out these delicate lines and safely restore a bright, youthful appearance.

Understanding the condition
What are Crow’s Feet?
This is a common dermal condition. It occurs when delicate tissue loses its natural elasticity and structural support. That is why repeated smiles or squints lead to the formation of small, faint lines or deep creases over time.
It often appears on the outer corners of your eyes. Therefore, you must consult our medical professionals for a bespoke assessment tailored to your exact skin type.
There are different types of this condition:
Static type
Involves permanent, deep folds. This occurs when severe collagen loss prevents the skin from smooth retraction. Consequently, this leads to permanent facial marks.
Root factors
What Causes Crow’s Feet?
Natural Age Process
As we get older, our skin loses collagen and elastin. This structural loss leads to loose tissue and deeper creases.
Sun Exposure
Ultraviolet rays from the sun break down vital proteins in your skin. This damage accelerates the development of severe lines around the eyes.
Smoke Habits
Cigarette smoke damages blood vessels and reduces natural collagen production. This habit severely weakens your delicate eye tissue.
Repeated Expressions
Frequent squints, smiles, and frowns constantly fold the skin. Over time, these repeated movements etch permanent creases into your face.
