Crow's feet that form on the outside of the eye are accentuated by repetitive movements and because, over time, the decrease in estrogens causes the skin to become drier, thinner and more flaccid. How to "erase" them?
The secret is in the eye area
Apply the eye contour day and night and make sure it is one with antioxidants that fight free radicals (vitamin E, resveratrol) and active ingredients that redensify the skin, such as collagen. "Laboratories do not stop innovating and are even inspired by neuroscience to develop formulas that allow accelerating the skin renewal process and, most interestingly, blocking the process of formation of new wrinkles", explains Consuelo Mohedano, training director by Shiseido. How?
- Fill in wrinkles under the eyes. There are no glands that produce lipids around the eyes to keep the area hydrated. What to do? You can opt for pocket appliances. To reinforce the action of your eye contour, there are small domestic devices with microcurrents and specific LED light frequencies. Orange, for example, stimulates collagen and firms the skin. You can also use eye patches. Infused with highly concentrated ingredients, such as vitamin C, retinol, collagen or hyaluronic acid, they act like masks and achieve deep hydration in 15 minutes, as well as tightening the skin under the eyes.
- With the creams of the future. The new cosmetic is capable of acting on several fronts at the same time without damaging the skin. After years of research, Shiseido laboratories have managed to develop the patented ReNeura Technology, which improves all wrinkles in the eye area, including those caused by stress. In addition, these formulas are respectful with the dermis. The latest trend is that they do not include parabens or mineral oils that can harm this delicate area around the eye.
You can also help yourself with aesthetic medicine
Without resorting to botox or undergoing surgery , there are techniques that help to blur these lines of expression when they are very evident, such as hyaluronic acid infiltrations (fills in wrinkles), facial radio frequency (reactivates the formation of collagen) or laser (regenerates the skin ).
- Tighten the creases of the eyelid. From the age of 40, the muscles around the eye lose tone and the skin of the eyelids falls towards the eyelashes, giving a sad and tired appearance. If the folds are moderate, you can benefit from the latest in aesthetic medicine such as blepharoplasty without surgery . “It is a treatment that uses a last generation laser called PLEXR. This favors the retraction of the skin, achieving a tightening effect that is perceptible from the first week and can last for years ”, says Dr. Pilar de Frutos. Only one or two sessions are needed. Its price: € 990.
- Erase the frown lines. Not only does the sun make us frown, more and more women have vertical lines in this area because of worries, anger … to the point that it is known as the stress wrinkle. One of the star treatments is Teosyal® RHA. If you are not a big fan of botox to smooth forehead wrinkles, including those between the eyebrows, because you think it can leave a too expressionless gesture on your face, Teosyal® RHA is a hyaluronic acid that, when infiltrated, also achieves excellent results on wrinkles caused by muscle movement. The result lasts for more than a year.
On crow's feet it is advisable not to use powder or make-up base or put a very small amount of a base that is very fluid, blending it well. If the product "gets into" the wrinkles, the crease will be much more noticeable.
