Crow's feet are defined as wrinkles etched in the corner of the eye. Unlike wrinkles or expression lines on other areas of the face, crow's feet can appear to look deeper or more pronounced on the skin. They appear as a result of normal but excessive muscle action of the underlying sphincter muscle of the eye and produce wrinkles that radiate outward in a 'sunray' effect. Some of the leading causes of crow's feet include UV exposure and the loss of collagen and elasticity that come with age.

Skin Renewal Tip
Unfortunately, a stunning "Hollywood" face and skin has not been handed out by nature - it has to be bought and this usually comes at an expensive price. At Skin Renewal, every client is provided with a fully customised yearlong solution dependent on budget and expectations. The treatments have prolonged effects and can be administered monthly or over a period of time until the desired result is achieved. The effect of each treatment is accumulative with the best results down the line.
Eye Reshaping
While eye rejuvenation encompasses various treatments to correct concerns such as crow's feet, undereye bags, dark under-eye circles, and thinning skin around the eyes, the more recent trend is to use those same correction techniques and treatments to reshape the eye area.
Some of the most commonly requested eye reshaping treatments include:
- The Almond or Oval Eye (Also known as the upturned eye)
- The Fox Eye
- The Cat Eye
