Meet Dr Kris: Your Cambridge Crow's Feet Doctor

BSc (Hons) MBBS PgDip MSc RCPathME MRSB MIoL MIHSCM PVRA

Dr Kris brings more than 12 years of clinical experience and a detailed knowledge of facial anatomy to every crow's feet treatment at Kriniko Medical Aesthetics. The skin around the eyes is thin and the muscles beneath it are closely linked to how you smile, so precision matters more here than almost anywhere else on the face.

  • Advanced aesthetic training completed in London, with ongoing professional development in anti-wrinkle injection techniques, facial anatomy and complication management.
  • A medical understanding of the orbicularis oculi muscle and its neighbouring structures, so treatment softens lines without affecting your eyelids, brows or smile.
  • Anti-wrinkle injections are prescription-only medicines. Every patient has a face-to-face medical consultation with Dr Kris before treatment, and a doctor is present throughout your appointment.

The Kriniko Difference

Softened, Never Frozen

The best crow's feet results don't take the warmth out of your smile. Dr Kris aims to soften lines while preserving natural movement, so your eyes still crinkle a little when you laugh and you simply look well rested.

Expression-led assessment

Your eye area is studied at rest, when smiling and when squinting, so treatment targets the lines that bother you without changing how you express yourself.

A measured, gradual approach

Dr Kris favours a conservative starting dose. If any lines need a little more softening, this can be adjusted at your two-week review.

Complete eye-area strategy

Injections relax movement. For crepey or thin skin, Dr Kris can combine them with regenerative treatments such as polynucleotides or Lumi Eye.

Crow's Feet Anti-Wrinkle Injections Cambridge

Anti-wrinkle injections are the most effective non-surgical treatment for crow's feet. A small amount of a prescription-only medicine is placed into the muscle that circles the eye, relaxing the movement that creases the skin each time you smile or squint.

Results begin to show within 3 to 5 days and reach their full effect at around two weeks, leaving the outer eye area visibly smoother. Crow's feet are often treated alongside forehead and frown lines for a balanced, refreshed upper face.

Preventative Crow's Feet Treatment

If you are starting to notice fine lines when you smile but they disappear at rest, a lower-dose preventative treatment can stop them from becoming deeper and more permanent over time.

By gently reducing the strength of repeated muscle movement, Dr Kris can help keep the skin around your eyes smoother for longer, using only as much product as you need for a light, natural effect that still lets your expressions show.

Eye Skin Rejuvenation

Some crow's feet are caused as much by thin, crepey skin as by muscle movement. For these finer, static lines, Dr Kris may recommend combining anti-wrinkle injections with regenerative treatments that improve skin quality.

Options such as polynucleotides and Lumi Eye Rejuvenation help strengthen and hydrate the delicate skin around the eyes, improving texture and fine crepiness that injections alone can't fully reach. Your plan is tailored after a full assessment of your eye area.

Your Treatment Journey

What to expect, step by step

Knowing what happens before, during and after your crow's feet appointment helps you feel at ease and set realistic expectations.

01

Medical consultation

Dr Kris reviews your medical history, watches how your eye area moves and discusses your goals. You'll receive a clear, personalised plan and time to consider it before going ahead.

02

The injection treatment

A few tiny injections are placed at the outer corner of each eye using a very fine needle. Most patients feel only a brief scratch, and treatment takes around 10 to 15 minutes.

03

Aftercare & review

Stay upright for 4 hours and avoid rubbing the area, exercise, saunas and alcohol for 24 hours. Your two-week review allows Dr Kris to check your result and fine-tune if needed.

How do anti-wrinkle injections treat crow's feet?
Crow's feet are caused by a ring-shaped muscle around the eye called the orbicularis oculi. Each time you smile, laugh or squint, this muscle contracts and folds the thin skin at the outer corners of your eyes. When we're young, the skin springs back, but as collagen and elastin decline with age, the creases begin to remain even when your face is relaxed. Anti-wrinkle injections contain a purified protein that temporarily blocks the nerve signals telling the muscle to contract. With the muscle gently relaxed, the skin above it creases less, so existing lines soften and new lines are less likely to form. The effect is temporary, with normal movement gradually returning over 3 to 4 months. Because anti-wrinkle injections are prescription-only medicines, suitability is always confirmed at a face-to-face medical consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your Crow's Feet Questions, Answered

How long does crow's feet treatment last?
Anti-wrinkle injections for crow's feet typically last around 3 to 4 months. Movement returns gradually rather than suddenly, and with regular treatment many patients find their results last a little longer. Your metabolism, lifestyle and how expressive you are all play a part, and Dr Kris will recommend a maintenance plan that suits you.
When will I see results?
Results usually start to appear within 3 to 5 days, with the full effect visible at around two weeks. This is why your review appointment is booked two weeks after treatment, so Dr Kris can check your result and make any small adjustments.
Does crow's feet treatment hurt?
Most patients find treatment very comfortable. A very fine needle is used and only a few small injections are needed at the outer corner of each eye. You may feel a brief scratch or sting, but the whole treatment is over in around 10 to 15 minutes.
What are the side effects of anti-wrinkle injections for crow's feet?
Common side effects include mild redness, small bumps at the injection points, slight bruising or a mild headache, which usually settle within hours to a few days. Less commonly, treatment can temporarily affect nearby muscles, causing a change in your smile, eyelid heaviness or dry eyes. These effects wear off as the treatment does. Dr Kris explains all risks in full at your consultation and minimises them through careful assessment and precise placement.
Will I still be able to smile naturally?
Yes. Dr Kris aims to soften crow's feet rather than stop all movement, so your eyes can still crinkle a little when you laugh. Treatment is dosed carefully to keep your expressions warm and natural, and a conservative first treatment can be adjusted at review if needed.
Can anti-wrinkle injections prevent crow's feet?
Yes. Lines around the eyes form gradually as the skin is creased again and again. By relaxing this movement, anti-wrinkle injections reduce the folding that etches lines into the skin over time. Many patients in their late twenties and thirties choose a lower-dose preventative treatment before lines become visible at rest.
What's the difference between anti-wrinkle injections and dermal fillers for crow's feet?
Anti-wrinkle injections are the main treatment for crow's feet because they relax the muscle that causes the lines. Dermal fillers add volume and are rarely used in this area, as the skin is thin and the lines are caused by movement rather than volume loss. For crepey skin around the eyes, regenerative treatments such as polynucleotides or Lumi Eye Rejuvenation may be combined with injections, and Dr Kris will advise on the right approach for you.
Who is not suitable for crow's feet treatment?
Anti-wrinkle injections are only offered to adults aged 18 and over. Treatment isn't suitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding, where there is infection in the area, or for people with certain neuromuscular conditions such as myasthenia gravis. Some medications and previous reactions may also affect suitability, so your full medical history is reviewed before any treatment is offered.
