Smooth away crow’s feet and periorbital wrinkles with precision Botox micro-injections at RE:BERRY Myeongdong.

Located 2 minutes from Myeongdong Station with 8-language support for international patients.
What Is Crow’s Feet Botox?
Crow’s feet Botox is a targeted injection of botulinum toxin into the orbicularis oculi muscle at the outer corners of the eyes. It relaxes the muscle fibers responsible for lateral canthal lines — the fan-shaped wrinkles that appear when you smile or squint — producing a smoother, more youthful eye area within 5-7 days that lasts 3-4 months.
Crow’s feet are among the earliest and most visible signs of facial aging because the periorbital skin is the thinnest on the face — just 0.5mm compared to 2mm elsewhere. Every smile, squint, and laugh contracts the orbicularis oculi muscle thousands of times daily, etching progressively deeper lines into this delicate skin. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, crow’s feet Botox is one of our most frequently requested treatments, particularly among international patients in their 30s and 40s who want to maintain a youthful, refreshed appearance without surgery. The treatment takes just 10 minutes, involves minimal discomfort, and requires zero downtime — making it the ideal treatment for tourists visiting Seoul. Our physicians combine crow’s feet Botox with complementary treatments like forehead Botox and eye-area skin boosters for comprehensive periorbital rejuvenation. Dr. Seung-Jae Baek’s advanced injection technique places micro-doses at precisely mapped points to smooth wrinkles while maintaining the natural crinkle that makes your smile genuine.

How Crow’s Feet Botox Works at RE:BERRY Myeongdong
Our precision four-step protocol for natural-looking eye wrinkle reduction.
Dynamic Expression Assessment
Dr. Seung-Jae Baek asks you to smile, squint, and make various expressions while carefully mapping your orbicularis oculi muscle contraction pattern. Every patient’s crow’s feet pattern is unique — some radiate upward, others downward, and the number of lines varies from 3 to 12. This dynamic analysis determines the exact injection points and dosing needed. The assessment takes 5-10 minutes and is performed in your preferred language with our multilingual coordinators present.
Precise Point Marking
Using a fine-tip marker, the doctor marks 3-5 injection points per side along the lateral orbital rim. These points are spaced 1-1.5cm apart in a fan pattern that mirrors your wrinkle pattern. The key is placing injections far enough from the lower eyelid to avoid ptosis or asymmetric smile. This marking step is what separates expert injectors from amateurs — improper placement can cause droopy eyelids or a frozen appearance.
Micro-Dose Injection
Using 32-gauge ultra-fine needles, the physician injects 2-4 units per point, totaling 8-16 units per side (16-32 units total for both sides). Each injection takes less than 2 seconds. The entire treatment is completed in under 10 minutes. Most patients describe the sensation as a brief pinch — comparable to a mosquito bite. No numbing cream is needed for this area, though ice can be applied upon request for extra comfort.
Immediate Aftercare
A cold compress is gently applied for 2-3 minutes to minimize any redness or micro-swelling. You receive written aftercare instructions: remain upright for 4 hours, avoid rubbing or massaging the eye area for 24 hours, skip strenuous exercise for 24 hours, and avoid saunas or hot yoga for 48 hours. You can apply makeup after 4 hours. Results begin appearing in 3-5 days with full effect at 10-14 days. Schedule a free follow-up at RE:BERRY Myeongdong within 2 weeks.

The Science Behind Crow’s Feet Botox
Peer-reviewed evidence supporting botulinum toxin for periorbital rejuvenation.
Orbicularis Oculi Anatomy and Crow’s Feet Formation
The orbicularis oculi is a thin, flat, elliptical muscle surrounding the eye orbit. Its lateral portion — the pars lateralis — is responsible for the involuntary squinting action that creates crow’s feet. Unlike the forehead frontalis muscle which has a simple vertical fiber direction, the orbicularis oculi has complex concentric fibers that radiate outward from the lateral canthus. This complex anatomy means that crow’s feet patterns vary significantly between individuals: some patients have 3-4 prominent lines, while others display 8-12 fine radiating lines. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, Dr. Seung-Jae Baek’s injection protocol accounts for these anatomical variations, customizing injection point placement and dosing for each patient’s unique muscle contraction pattern.
Botulinum Toxin Mechanism in Periorbital Muscles
When botulinum toxin type A is injected into the lateral orbicularis oculi, it cleaves the SNAP-25 protein at the neuromuscular junction, preventing acetylcholine release and temporarily blocking muscle contraction. The lateral canthal region responds particularly well to Botox because the overlying skin is extremely thin (approximately 0.5mm), allowing even small reductions in muscle activity to produce visible wrinkle smoothing. Dose-response studies show that 8-16 units per side (typically 3-5 injection points per side) produces optimal crow’s feet reduction while maintaining natural orbital function including adequate eye closure and genuine smile expressiveness.
Preventive Neuromodulation: Long-Term Benefits
Emerging evidence supports the concept of preventive Botox — starting treatment before deep static wrinkles form. Repeated botulinum toxin injections over years may produce a semi-permanent reduction in wrinkle depth as the muscle gradually atrophies from disuse. Patients who maintain regular 3-4 month treatment cycles often report that their wrinkles become progressively less severe even as the Botox effect wears off between sessions. This is particularly relevant for crow’s feet, where early intervention in the late 20s or early 30s can prevent the transition from dynamic lines (visible only during expression) to static lines (visible at rest).
Clinical Evidence and Safety Data
The pivotal registration trial for crow’s feet Botox by Lowe et al. (2010) in the Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy demonstrated that 24 units of botulinum toxin (12 per side) produced significant improvement in lateral canthal lines at maximum smile, with 89% of patients achieving a 2-grade improvement on the validated Facial Wrinkle Scale. Duration averaged 3.8 months. Carruthers and Carruthers (2007) confirmed that repeated treatments at 3-4 month intervals maintained results with no tachyphylaxis (loss of effectiveness) over 2 years. The safety profile showed transient injection-site reactions in fewer than 5% of patients, with no serious adverse events in over 2,500 treatment cycles analyzed.

See our complications page for more safety information.
Xeomin (incobotulinumtoxinA) is a pure-form botulinum toxin without complexing proteins, reducing the theoretical risk of antibody formation.

At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, proper injection technique and dosing ensure both safety and optimal aesthetic results.
A subtle brow lift effect can result from crow’s feet Botox when the lateral brow depressor fibers of the orbicularis oculi are relaxed. At RE:BERRY Myeongdong, this micro-lift effect is carefully calibrated — too much can create a surprised look. Discuss your brow goals with Dr. Baek during consultation.
