Causes of crow's feet and tips for removing crow's feet

The appearance of crow's feet indicates that the skin around the eyes is loose and aging. Many young girls are also troubled by crow's feet because they do not take proper care of themselves in daily life, so crow's feet appear early.

Causes of crow's feet

1. Elastic fiber degeneration

From a medical point of view, it is caused by the gradual aging of elastic fibers, the reduction of skin moisture and subcutaneous fat, the skin loses its elasticity, and is pulled by the subcutaneous muscles. Histologically, the structure of the lesions is altered due to degeneration of elastic fibers. It is mainly caused by the movement of the orbicularis oculi muscle, and the levator anguli muscles, zygomatic muscles and zygomatic muscles also participate in its production.

2. Oxidation

Collagen and other proteins are easily damaged by UVA, UVB, ozone or other oxidative factors. Collagen is oxidized and breaks to produce wrinkles and cracks. After collagen breaks, the supporting function for the epidermis disappears, causing the epidermis to collapse unevenly. The skin will become dull, loose, dry, and develop fine lines, crow's feet and other wrinkles.

3. Decreased or lost activity of fibroblasts in the dermis

As we age, cell metabolism slows down and the production of hyaluronic acid decreases, resulting in insufficient moisture for collagen and elastic fibers, which cannot fully relax. The volume of the dermis decreases, the skin collapses, and wrinkles form.

4. Atrophy of fat and subcutaneous fat

As we age, fat and subcutaneous fat shrink, the skin does not get enough support, and it collapses and wrinkles appear.

5. External causes of crow's feet

The skin around the eyes has a thin stratum corneum, a thin fat layer, and few sebaceous glands. Dryness, coldness, too high a temperature for washing the face, rich facial expressions, irregular lifestyle, smoking, etc. can all lead to a decrease in the elasticity of the fibrous tissue, thereby accelerating the formation of crow's feet around the eyes.

Tips for removing crow's feet

1. Apply Tremella juice to the eyes

Speaking of Tremella fuciformis, it is usually made into Tremella fuciformis soup to nourish women. Tremella fuciformis has many benefits. It can tighten the skin and is very helpful for removing wrinkles. First soak the Tremella fuciformis in warm water and cook it until it becomes viscous. Apply it to the eyes for about 15 minutes at night. Doing this frequently will make your face become very shiny and elastic.

2. Cold tea bags

Some people don't like to drink plain water, so they can add tea bags to the water. Don't throw away the used tea bags in a hurry. After letting them cool down, you can apply them to your eyes for five minutes, which can effectively remove crow's feet.

3. Cucumber and egg white eye mask

Many people will make cucumber into facial masks, because cucumber can moisturize and whiten the skin. Egg white can also be made into facial masks to tighten the skin. Cucumber plus egg white can easily remove crow's feet. The effect of cucumber moisturizing and egg white tightening the skin is obvious.

4. Rice balls

A ball of rice When the rice is cooked, pick some soft and warm rice and knead it into a ball. Put it on your face and rub it gently until the rice ball becomes greasy and black, then rinse your face with clean water. Rice can absorb the oil and dirt in the skin pores, allowing the skin to breathe freely and thus reducing crow's feet.

5. Beer

A glass of beer has a low alcohol content, and the tannic acid, bitter acid and hyaluronic acid it contains can stimulate appetite, aid digestion and clear away heat. Beer also contains a lot of vitamin B, sugar and protein, which are nutrients that the skin likes. Drinking beer in moderation (150 to 250 grams each for lunch and dinner every day) can enhance your physical fitness and reduce crow's feet on your face.

6. Chicken bones

The vast majority of the skin's dermis is composed of elastic fibers. Without it, the skin loses its elasticity and crow's feet gather. However, chicken skin and chicken cartilage contain a large amount of chondroitin sulfate, which is the most important component of elastic fiber. If you wash the leftover chicken bones and put them together with chicken skin to make soup, drinking it regularly will make your skin delicate. Over time, the crow's feet will gradually decrease.

How to prevent crow's feet?

For crow's feet and fine lines on the face, the most important care is prevention. Prevention is much more important than removal. How to prevent the appearance of crow's feet is very critical. Girls can prevent it from the following aspects.

1. Massage the skin around eyes. To prevent the appearance of crow's feet, it is crucial to massage the eye skin regularly. Girls need to pay attention that massage is not rubbing, the concepts are different! Girls can support their temples with one hand, and then use the other hand to gently do spiral massage from the outer corner of the eye inward, moving towards the inner corner of the eye while massaging. Do this once in the morning and once in the evening, repeat five or six times each time. The force should be appropriate and not too heavy, otherwise it will easily aggravate the formation of wrinkles.

2. Keep doing eye exercises. Are there still girls who insist on doing eye exercises? I guess there are very few of them! Don’t underestimate the role of eye exercises in maintaining eye skin. Girls can protect their eyesight and prevent the appearance of eye wrinkles by doing eye exercises regularly. So, girls who have already thrown away eye exercises, pick them up quickly! When doing eye exercises, gently smooth and stretch the outer corners of your eyes to effectively prevent the appearance of crow's feet.

3. The effectiveness of eye cream is not proportional to the amount used. If you feel that applying eye cream still cannot relieve the dryness of the skin around your eyes, you should try a more moisturizing product or use eye essence. Just like you need to apply essence before applying face cream, you can also use eye essence before applying eye cream. Its molecules are smaller and easier to be absorbed by the skin around the eyes, and it will make the eye cream applied later have a better effect. However, using too much eye cream will not only make it difficult to absorb, but will also cause a burden and accelerate the formation of wrinkles around the eyes.

4. The earliest wrinkles that appear on the face are crow's feet at the corners of the eyes, so people often use eye cream to massage the corners of the eyes perpendicular to the wrinkles. This is undoubtedly correct, but the earliest area of ​​the face to become loose is not the corners of the eyes, but under the eyes, followed by the upper eyelids. The aging phenomenon in this area is not as obvious as crow's feet, but it will give people a strong impression of aging, so we must nip it in the bud. The small wrinkles at the corners of a young girl's eyes when she smiles do not make her look old, but rather very cute. However, the sagging and swelling of the upper and lower eyelids will make her look haggard. Therefore, anti-aging of the eyes is not just about anti-wrinkle, but about keeping the entire eye skin firm.

5. The skin around the eyes is the most delicate part of the face, and the ingredients in eye cream are the safest, most gentle and non-irritating of all skin care products. It can completely replace facial products and be temporarily used on other parts of the skin. The dry environment on the plane is even worse than the air-conditioning in the office. Your skin will appear dry and dull, and even fine lines and wrinkles will appear! For skin that is urgently dehydrated, whether it is dry cheeks or chapped lips, a bottle of moisturizing eye cream can be used on any part of the skin to give the skin good care.
