There are many methods to remove eye wrinkles such as laser, HIFU, RF, botox injection, filler, LED light, massage, and using cosmetics containing retinol and peptides.
Eye wrinkles (crow’s feet) are folds in the skin around the eye area, often appearing at the corners of the eyes, under the eyes or around the eyelids. Dr. Quach Thi Bich Van, specialist in Dermatology – Skin Aesthetics, Tam Anh General Hospital, Ho Chi Minh City, said the main cause of crow’s feet is natural aging. Over time, the skin loses collagen (the main protein that helps firm the skin and reduces wrinkles) and elastin (the protein that helps the skin stretch), causing the skin to become thin and less elastic.
Facial muscle movements such as smiling, squinting or raising eyebrows create repetitive dynamic wrinkles that will form static wrinkles. Ultraviolet rays from the sun change the structure of the skin epidermis, destroy collagen and elastin fibers, promoting premature aging. Not moisturizing or using sunscreen makes the skin easily dry and wrinkled. Other problems such as environmental pollution, dust, dry climate, unhealthy lifestyle (lack of sleep, smoking, drinking alcohol, eating a lot of sweets, grease…) can also cause aging. skin transformation.
Wrinkles on the eyes do not affect health but cause loss of confidence. Dr. Van said there are many painless treatments for crow’s feet, depending on each person’s condition and economic conditions, including:
High-tech therapy
High-tech therapy uses modern machines used in skin beautification treatments.
Laser Using light stimulates collagen production, fills wrinkles, and improves skin texture.
HIFU (converged ultrasound waves) non-invasively lift and tighten the skin around the eyes.
SuperB includes 7 parallel synchronized ultrasound beams to regenerate collagen, improving facial lines and wrinkles.
RF (radio waves) increase the temperature of the dermis to stimulate collagen production.
Cosmetic injections
A popular cosmetic injection method to help reduce wrinkles in the eye area is Botox. Botox relaxes muscles around the eye area, reducing dynamic wrinkles. This method is painless or less painful. The skin around the eyes has many blood vessels and nerves. Patients should get Botox injections at a reputable medical facility with a Dermatologist – Skin Aesthetician who has been granted a practice certificate to avoid complications.

LED light therapy
LED emits light that affects the skin, stimulating the production of collagen and elastin, improving elasticity and firming the skin around the eyes. LED also increases blood circulation, bringing oxygen and nutrients from the blood to nourish cells so that the skin regeneration process takes place better, reducing wrinkles. This therapy is painless, according to Dr. Van.
Skin care
Use a combination of products containing retinol to regenerate and stimulate collagen production, peptides to strengthen skin structure and increase skin elasticity, and hyaluronic acid to provide moisture and fill shallow wrinkles. Products containing retinol may cause skin irritation and burning. Patients should consult a doctor before use.
Natural method
Massage has the effect of increasing blood circulation and firming the skin. Applying a suitable mask provides moisture and nutrients to help your skin become healthier and reduce wrinkles. However, you should only apply a mask 2-3 times per week, choosing one with ingredients suitable for each skin type. Everyone can consult a Dermatologist – Skin Aesthetician before use. These methods take a long time to be effective.
To avoid premature skin aging, Dr. Van notes that people should maintain a healthy lifestyle such as getting enough sleep, drinking enough water, limiting eating sweets and fried foods, and avoiding being exposed to direct sunlight for too long. reduce stress..
