Hi there,
I am new to this forum and was wondering if anyone here had any product suggestions (skincare or makeup) for lessening the look of crow's feet. I think mine are worsening because I sleep on my sides, but I can't seem to stay on my back. LOL
Thank you for your help! |

| If yours are worsening because of sleeping on your side then you might want to check out one of those special pillows that cradles your face and therefore lets you sleep on your side without pressing your face into your pillow. I bought the Save My Face pillow after noticing a crease running down the side of my face by my nose on the side that I sleep on most that wasn't present on the other side. The pillow is pretty pricey but it does a good job. Another option might be a silk or satin pillowcase; these are supposed to be helpful in decreasing sleep lines. |

| They dont I have tried it all,even browtox which is supposed to have paralyzing snake venom in it.NOTHING comes close to botox except plastic surgery,I have had both!I am 53, when I do botox on my crows feet, people cant believe I am over 40 seriously!It prevents you from making that wrinkle when you smile and having the crows feet go out to the side of your face....it just doesnt happen yet you dont at all feel paralyzed in anyway just younger.I found a dr in the san diego conty area that only charges $150. His name is Dr. Moradi and he does more botox than any dr in SD. Usually when u get botox youhave to tell them inadvance how many areas you are going to do because they have to premix it but he uses so much you can decided when you get there how many areas you want to do. People even drive from LA to save the $$$. I have paid as much as 400 for botox. |

Thank you for your replies!
How long do Botox treaments last and do they instantly smooth out existing lines, as well as prevent further ones? |

Mama,
Which size pillow did you purchase and is it comfortable to sleep on (ie. neck support)?
Thank you! |

| How long does botox last? It depends on the individual. For some it can last as long as 6 mos. For most, its around 3 months.The only way to tell is to try it once.For me it only lasts 6 weeks.As it wears off the wrinkles come back.It will not totally take away crows feet but whereas without botox my crows go out l 1/2 inches from the end of my eye when I smile, they will only slightly extend less than 1/2 an inch. |

Pinup_Girl,
I got the smaller pillow, the one that you lay on top of your regular pillow. I do find it comfortable but kind of smoosh my main pillow up under my neck sometimes for more support. My face is still suspended by the little pillow though. HTH! |

Sounds like I could use one of these. I sleep on my stomach but my face is still getting smashed against the pillow! Where did you buy yours from? |
