Crow’s Feet Botox in Seoul
Crow’s feet Botox softens the fan-shaped lines at the outer corners of the eyes by relaxing the orbicularis oculi muscle. At Grand Plastic Surgery in Gangnam it is a quick injection session with minimal downtime; the effect usually starts within a few days and lasts around 3–4 months.

What is crow’s feet Botox?
Crow’s feet are the lines that fan out from the outer corners of the eyes when you smile or squint. They are caused by repeated contraction of the orbicularis oculi muscle, and over time they can remain visible even when the face is at rest.
Small, precisely placed doses of botulinum toxin relax the outer part of this muscle, so the skin creases less. Grand’s doctors dose conservatively to keep a natural smile — the goal is softer lines, not a frozen look.
How crow’s feet Botox works
Assessment
Your doctor watches how the eye area moves when you smile and squint.
Marking
Two to three small points are marked on each side of the outer eye.
Injection
A very fine needle delivers a small dose into the muscle; the session takes about 10–15 minutes.
Back to your day
Most people return to normal activities straight away.
