At the corner of each eye, la patte d'oie discreetly settles in, like a permanent reminder of laughter and the years. These fine wrinkles, the result of repeated contraction of the orbicularis muscle, are often the first to mark the face. The skin, thinner in this area, wrinkles more quickly, giving the tired look despite the best efforts of makeup and anti-aging creams.
Botox injection in the corners of the eyes, the famous botulinum toxin, is still today's leading most effective treatment to correct those expression lines. Used for a long time in ophthalmology, This aesthetic medicine technique helps to smooth the area treated without surgery, Thanks to a low dose injected with a very fine needle. In just a few days, the skin becomes smoother and the eyes more open, without freezing emotions.
A personalized protocol, developed by the Docteur Djian, qualified practitioner in Paris, This is a natural, long-lasting result at an affordable mid-range price.
The anti-aging effect of botox does not erase the history of the face: it simply restores the light of the eyes.
Crow's feet wrinkles appear around the age of thirty, This is when the skin loses its elasticity and the orbicularis muscle contracts repeatedly. This fine, highly solicited area is one of the most expressive on the face.
The "crow's feet" zone refers to all fine lines that form at the outer corner of the eye. They extend laterally, following the natural direction of the orbicularis muscle, the muscular circle that surrounds the eyelid. Over time, repeated contractions create fine lines that become permanent.
They are due to daily repetition of eye expressions. With every smile, every squint in the sun, the orbicularis muscle contracts. Over the years, the skin loses its collagen and its ability to regain its original shape. Collagen production declines with age, sun exposure, smoking and chronic fatigue.
Sun exposure is a major aggravating factor: UV rays progressively destroy support fibers, accentuating fine lines. Other factors come into play: dry skin, lack of hydration, a diet low in antioxidants, and oxidative stress linked to urban life.
Prevention starts long before they appear. A daily sun protection, even in winter, slows skin ageing. Moisturizing, Balanced nutrition and rest encourage natural collagen production. Topical treatments based on vitamin C, from retinoids or’hyaluronic acid can strengthen the skin around the eyes.
Adopting good habits can help reduce their development: avoid squinting in the sun, choosing the right glasses, moisturize skin morning and night, and limit smoking. These gestures do not replace medical treatment, but prolong its effectiveness.
But what is botox? ? Botox is the benchmark in aesthetic medicine for treating expression lines. Its principle is based on botulinum toxin, a substance used for decades in ophthalmology and neurology, and now widely mastered in the aesthetic field.
Botulinum toxin is a purified molecule of natural origin, used in very low doses. It acts as a localized muscle relaxant. Injected directly into the muscle responsible for wrinkles, it temporarily blocks acetylcholine release, neurotransmitter responsible for contraction. The muscle relaxes, the skin smoothes, without altering sensitivity or overall facial movement.
Its use in aesthetic medicine is based on decades of clinical observation. Forehead botox, botox eyebrows and processing crow's feet wrinkles are among the most advanced applications of botulinum toxin. Used in low doses, it relaxes the muscles responsible for expression lines, for a natural, balanced rejuvenation of the eyes.
The orbicularis muscle, responsible for these wrinkles, reacts particularly well to botulinum toxin. By relaxing it slightly, repeated contractions are reduced, without altering the smile or the mobility of the eyes. The aim is not to freeze, but to subtly relax the muscle to restore the skin's smooth appearance.
The secret to natural results lies in the practitioner's experience. The precision of the gesture and the exact dosage are essential. low dose helps maintain a lively expression while eliminating marked creases. Too high a dose, on the other hand, can stiffen the area and alter the smile.
What's the difference between Botox and Hyaluronic Acid? Botox treats dynamic wrinkles, those that appear with movement. Hyaluronic acid, fills static wrinkles, already dug. These two products therefore act in a complementary way. In the case of crow's feet, botox is preferred because it attacks the muscular cause directly, whereas hyaluronic acid risks creating a puffy effect.
The choice of product depends on the nature of the wrinkle, the patient's age and the aesthetic physician's diagnosis. In some cases, a light combination of the two can be proposed for overall rejuvenation of the upper face.
The session is fast (less than 10 minutes), painless and does not require surgery. You are welcomed for a preliminary consultation, then the injection is carried out in just a few minutes using a very fine needle. The procedure is a aesthetic medicine made with Dr Djian in his practice at 5 square Thiers in the 16th arrondissement of Paris.
Before any injections, Dr Jérémy Djian, assesses facial morphology, skin thickness and the eye dynamics. He observes the orbital area, the contractions at the corner of the eye and the position of the eyebrow. This step enables determine the number of points to be injected and the right dose of toxin for each side.
An anaesthetic cream may be applied, but the procedure is generally painless. It is also during this first consultation that the Doctor Djian explains how the treatment works, the precautions to take and the expected effects.
Do your eyes look tired or less open than before?
These signs often reflect excessive contraction of the muscles around the eyes.
Consult Dr. Djian in Paris for a customized treatment that restores radiance and naturalness to your eyes.
Botulinum toxin injections are carried out with the help of a very fine needle. The doctor injects very small quantities of botulinum toxin at three or five strategic points in the outer corner of the eye. Each micro-dose is precisely placed in the orbicularis muscle to achieve balanced relaxation. The session lasts around ten minutes, without heavy anesthesia or social eviction.
You can resume your activities immediately afterwards. Some redness or small bruises may appear, but disappear within a few hours. The procedure is controlled, controlled and non-invasive.
After the session, we recommend avoid pressure on the injected area for 24 hours. No massages, intense sports or saunas. The face must remain at rest to allow the product to set properly. The skin may show slight sensation of tension, This is a sign that the toxin is beginning to take effect.
In most cases, the patient feels no discomfort.
The first results appear between 3rd and 5th day. The skin is gradually smoothed, muscle contraction decreases. The eyes look rested, and marks around the eyes fade. Maximum results are observed between 10 and 15 days after the session.
The difference is subtle but visible: dynamic wrinkles are reduced, and the face looks younger without changing the shape of the eye.
The average duration of botox effects is 4 to 6 months. This variation depends on several factors: muscle tone, patient age, sun exposure, lifestyle, stress or smoking. In patients younger, the result tends to last longer, because muscle relaxation is longer-lasting.
A maintenance session, twice a year, This is all it takes to maintain a stable, natural result. The product does not accumulate in the skin; it naturally resorbs over time. At each visit, the doctor adjusts the dose and placement according to the evolution of the face.
Naturalness relies on the balance between muscular relaxation and expressiveness. A frozen look loses its authenticity. Dr. Djian favors a gentle technique, with low doses precisely distributed to preserve micro-expressions. The injections are performed close to the brow bone to avoid blocking lymphatic drainage and thus open up the eyes while reducing wrinkles at the corners of the eyes.
A well-dosed treatment preserves “phantom smile lines, those slight residual wrinkles that give life to the eyes. These invisible micro-contractions contribute to non-verbal communication. New approaches to aesthetic medicine aim to relax without erasing, to rejuvenate without standardizing.
The secret of a youthful look is to keep it expressive. Dr Djian adjusts each dose to smooth the skin while allowing the emotions to breathe, so that the result looks simply... natural.

The first expression lines appear often in their thirties, when the orbicularis muscle contracts repeatedly. Botulinum toxin injections can be considered. at the first sign of trouble, in particular with the Baby Botox, a gentle technique using very low doses. This preventive protocol helps reduce crow's feet wrinkles while preserving the mobility of the eyes. Baby Botox is ideal for younger patients wishing to preserve a natural look without freezing facial expressions.
The orbicularis muscle surrounds the eye and acts like a ring. With every smile, squint or exposure to the sun, it contracts, creating small fine lines in the outer corner of the eye. As the skin ages, collagen production declines, the skin loses elasticity, and these temporary folds become permanent. Botox for crow's feet, by slightly relaxing the muscle, helps prevent and correct these expression marks, while preserving a natural, expressive look.
When injected with precision by a experienced plastic surgeon, Botox for the orbital area does not alter the eyelid or the smile. The objective is to relax muscles responsible for wrinkles, not to block them completely. On the other hand, too much product or the wrong depth of injection can result in a slight wrinkle. eyebrow sagging or a temporary asymmetry. That's why it's so important to tailor treatment and dosage to suit each individual face, for a harmonious, safe result.
Yes, botox acts on the same muscular mechanism, but the amount of injected product varies depending on skin type and orbicularis muscle strength. In men, the muscles are often more powerful, A slightly higher dose is required to achieve balanced sagging. The treatment of crow's feet wrinkles remains identical, but the objective differs: to preserve the masculinity of the eyes while softening the contractions. For women, the priority is often a natural smoothing effect and rejuvenation of the eyes without rigidity.
Botox can be combined with other areas of the upper face for an even result. The most common are forehead (horizontal wrinkles) and frown lines (between the eyebrows). This combination rejuvenates the overall look. Some patients also opt for a complementary treatment with hyaluronic acid to fill in deeper wrinkles or redraw the tail of the eyebrow. The aesthetic doctor adapts the protocol and the dose injected according to morphology and the desired level of correction.
