Crow’s Feet and Eye Wrinkle Consultations in Melbourne at Cityskin
“Crow’s feet” is the popular name given to lateral canthal lines, or simply the lines around the eyes. In some people, they occur when squinting, as the muscles around the eyes contract, while in others, they remain visible at rest as the skin loses elasticity over time. As causes and appearances vary, a consultation is needed before any treatment options are recommended.
What Causes Lines Around the Eyes?
A few things can contribute to lines around the eyes, including:
- Repeated movement of the muscles around the eyes
- Sun exposure
- Changes in skin quality over time

Different Types of Crow’s Feet
Crow’s feet can present differently depending on the individual, including:

What to Expect Before, During and After Treatment
Before Treatment
Before treatment, we discuss your concerns, review your medical history, assess movement around the eyes and plan an approach suited to you.
During Treatment
If a procedure is deemed medically appropriate and you choose to proceed, the area is cleansed and carefully mapped. Your practitioner will explain the specific anatomical approach being used and ensure you are comfortable with the sensations you may experience.
After Treatment
Temporary effects such as redness or swelling are common and usually settle within a short time. Your practitioner provides aftercare guidance, including activities to avoid and when to contact the clinic if needed.
Results and Follow-Up
Changes may become noticeable within days to weeks, and your practitioner may review results at a follow-up appointment. Results vary between clients and are not permanent, so future or maintenance treatment may be discussed.
FAQs
Difficult lower crow’s feet
When crow’s feet radiate down the cheek, as shown in the picture below, they become hard to treat. This is because the lower crow’s feet lie very close to the muscles that lift the cheeks and mouth corners. If lower crow’s feet are treated too aggressively it can restrict the ability to lift the cheeks and make the cheeks look flatter and less full. One option for treating lower crow’s feet is to use volume enhancement treatments rather than wrinkle management treatments. In a free consultation with a Cityskin clinician, you can learn more about how volume enhancement treatments can help crow’s feet concerns, helping you to make an informed decision.
We understand that our patients want to be fully informed prior to a treatment, and this includes being aware of what to expect in terms of pain. We encourage you to book a free consultation so that an experienced treatment clinician can discuss the treatment process with you and answer your questions about pain and pain management.
The diagonal crow’s feet that some people experience are probably the most difficult to treat. These can be treated with very gentle amounts of wrinkle management product, however, sometimes we need to use volume enhancement treatments.
Crow’s feet may develop due to sun exposure, smoking and repeated use of the muscles around the eyes.
Practitioners look at facial movement, the depth and direction of lines, and how they present both during movement and at rest.
