Ultrasonographic analyses of Crow's feet and novel guideline for botulinum toxin injection

Abstract: Background Crow's feet are bilateral orbital wrinkles formed by the orbital portion of the orbicularis oculi muscle, which is the target muscle for botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) injection. Objectives This study's aim was to demonstrate a novel BoNT injection guideline by assessing muscle width, thickness, and dynamic features using ultrasonography. Methods Twenty healthy Korean volunteers (10 men, 10 women; mean age, 25.6) participated. The width, thickness, and dynamic movement of the orbicularis oculi muscle w… Show more

“…The epidermis around the eye is 0.2 mm thick, and the dermis is 0.7–1.2 mm thick according to the histological analysis. And a recent living human ultrasonography analyses shown the depth of the orbicularis oculi muscle from the skin surface at the midpoint of the frontal process is 2.0 ± 0.4 mm 9 . The depth of this point is almost the thinnest around the eye.…”

Chinese patients want not only to eliminate wrinkles but also to maintain as natural an expression as possible.…”

“…There have been some recommendations for rounding the corner of the eye along the mimic wrinkles (Handa & Marwah, 2021; Li et al, 2022). In practice, however, this is not always possible, because a number of patients undergo botulinum toxin injections to eliminate these wrinkles and this physiological fold-indicator is smoothed out and becomes invisible (Piao et al, 2022). Likewise, these wrinkles might not exist in patients younger than 30 years.…”

“…Metrics such as crow's feet grading score (CFGS) or global aesthetic improvement scale (GAIS) or eventually traditional validated patients reported outcome measures (PROMs) are required. 34,55 Ultimately, technologically advanced measures such as periorbital wrinkles measurement by 3-D imaging 34,56 or ultrasonographic analyses of crow's feet 57 could provide a basis for meaningful and objective comparison of various studies. Furthermore, rather than PROMs that may be somewhat biased and subjective, patients' satisfaction analysis by artificial intelligence (AI) 58 and eye-tracking (ET) 59 may prove to be better measuring tools in the future.…”
