EYELIDS · ILLUSTRATED 3D RECOVERY
Crow’s Feet Botox (Anti-Wrinkle Injections): before & after and recovery stages
Compare squinting at the same effort to see changes in creases beside the eyes.
Also called anti-wrinkle injections for crow’s feet
SUMMARY
What this example shows
Squinting reveals the example fan-shaped creases beside each eye. These creases and nearby skin movement soften over time, then return. Eyeballs stay fixed; this does not predict eye closure, dryness or smile function.
STAGE BY STAGE
Crow’s Feet Botox (Anti-Wrinkle Injections) recovery stages
Your expression reference
The selected expression reveals the authored lines and movement.
Compare the same expression at each stage.
Around 1 week: Effect developing
The model makes a smaller version of the same movement.
The effect develops over days rather than appearing at injection.
Around 2 weeks: Expression comparison
The example creases soften; some movement and resting detail remain.
Fuller results are commonly assessed around 10–14 days.
Around 4 months: Movement returning
The same expression produces stronger creases again in this example.
Muscle reaction returns as a temporary effect fades.

INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES
How recovery can vary
Timing and response
Expression, muscle balance, product and individual response matter. This is one authored movement example; its strength is not a dose or measured muscle activity.
Longer term
The illustrated movement returns toward baseline. The calendar does not set a retreatment date, and lines at rest may remain.
EVIDENCE NOTES
Sources and limitations
- Cleveland Clinic: Botulinum toxin
Delayed onset, fuller effect around 10–14 days, early reactions and gradual return of movement.
- ASPS: Botulinum toxin results
Temporary improvement and return of muscle reactions as the effect fades.
- AAD: Botulinum toxin therapy: FAQs
Targeted muscle relaxation, preservation of other expressions and temporary injection reactions.
