Nasolabial Folds | Kuriachan Eye Institute

Why do you get Nasolabial Folds?

Everyone has some amount of these folds, or “smile lines”. As you get older, if you smoke, and/or acquire sun damage, you lose collagen and elastin. Also, gravity is pulling down on your skin so over time, these folds get more noticeable.

Crow's Feet

What are Crow’s Feet

Crow’s Feet are wrinkles that form on the outer sides of your eyes, more noticeable when smiling.

Why do you get them?

From the time we are born, our facial muscles move to form facial expressions. When they work, they form wrinkles and over our lifetime, these wrinkles become more and more noticeable.

Thinning Eyelashes

Why do you get it?

Eyelashes like any other hair can get thinner as you age due to life stressors and hormonal changes. If you have medical conditions that affect your thyroid or eye conditions that cause inflammation around your lashes like blepharitis, you are at more risk.

Treatments

Advanced Eyelash Serum – an innovative peptide complex that promotes thicker and longer lashes just after 2 weeks of continued use. This is a great option as it doesn’t have the side effects of Latisse and does provide similar results.

73% improvement in lash density after 1 month of use
45% increase in new lashes after 2 months of use
25% increase in lash length after 2 weeks

Latisse – it is the only product currently approved by the FDA to grow eyelashes. It is a formulation of an old glaucoma drop. It was noted that patients who took that glaucoma eye drop had longer lashes. The downside of Latisse is that it carries the side effects of that glaucoma drop which includes possible darkening of your eye color or skin around your eye, thinning of the skin/fat surrounding your eyes, and increased risk of inflammation in your eye if you have had inflammation before. If you would like Latisse, you would need to see Dr. Kuriachan first to make sure your eye will be okay taking it, then a prescription can be placed to your local pharmacy.
