Crow's Feet Botox in El Paso —
Softer Lines, Same Smile

Crow's feet typically take about 12–24 units total (roughly 6–12 per side). At Solas, Botox is $10 per unit at 20+ units, so a full crow's feet treatment is about $144–$240 depending on your dose. Many patients treat crow's feet with their forehead and frown lines for a complete upper-face refresh. Your exact dose and price are confirmed at your consultation.

Usually about 6–12 units per side, or 12–24 units total. Stronger muscles and deeper lines need a bit more. Celeste maps your dose to how you actually move when you smile and squint, so the result stays natural.

No — when it's done correctly. The goal is to soften the lines that fan out from the corners of your eyes while keeping your natural, expressive smile. Precise placement by an experienced injector is what keeps your eyes looking rested rather than frozen.

About 3–4 months for most patients. With regular treatment, the muscles gradually relax and many people find their results hold a little longer over time. If you'd prefer fewer visits, ask about Daxxify, which lasts up to 6 months.

Yes. Many patients in their late 20s and 30s use light 'preventative' Botox around the eyes to slow the formation of deep crow's feet before they set in. The dose is simply tailored to your skin and goals.

Most patients describe it as a quick pinch. The area is treated with a few injections using a fine needle, and the whole treatment takes only a few minutes. Numbing cream is available if you'd like it.

Onset typically starts at day 3–5, with full results visible at day 14. Daxxify works 1–2 days sooner. If anything looks uneven at the 2-week mark, that's the touch-up window — we book free 2-week assessments for new patients.

Not when it's done correctly. The injection points for crow's feet are precise — at the temple side of the eye, in the orbicularis oculi muscle that creates the smile lines. Going too low or too close to the cheek is what creates issues. Celeste places conservative, anatomically targeted doses to soften the lines without affecting the under-eye area or cheek. If under-eye hollowing is your concern, see our under-eye Botox page where we handle that area specifically.

Partially yes. El Paso's high UV index plus the constant squinting that comes with bright sun accelerates crow's feet formation — many of our patients in their 30s notice them sooner than people in cloudier climates. Other drivers: years of smiling (the muscle action that creates the lines), screen-staring posture, smoking, and genetic skin elasticity. Botox stops the muscle component; sunscreen and antioxidants protect the skin component.

For most patients, yes. Crow's feet have two components: muscle movement (Botox addresses this) AND skin quality (texture, fine lines at rest, sun damage). Pairing crow's feet Botox with microneedling, a quality medical retinoid, and consistent SPF gives a noticeably better result than Botox alone — especially for patients with sun-driven texture changes. We'll map out the combo at consultation if it fits your goals.

Yes — Daxxify is FDA-approved for frown lines but used off-label for crow's feet just like Botox. The aesthetic result is the same; Daxxify just lasts 6–9 months vs Botox's 3–4. Many patients who started with Botox for crow's feet transition to Daxxify once they know the dose they like, so they can space treatments further apart. See our Daxxify page for full detail.
