At Coastal Glo Med Spa in Corpus Christi, TX, we understand that looking your best is not just about appearance, it’s about how you feel. Botox® is one of the most effective and convenient non-surgical treatments for smoothing over lines and wrinkles, so you can have that stunning refreshed and youthful look. Whether you’re addressing crow’s feet, frown lines, or forehead wrinkles, this treatment offers a practical solution with minimal downtime, allowing you to maintain natural expressions while turning back the clock.
Botox® is a purified form of the chemical known as botulinum toxin, an FDA-approved treatment designed to temporarily relax facial muscles that cause wrinkles and lines. By targeting specific muscle groups, the treatment smooths out areas prone to wrinkles, such as the forehead, around the eyes (crow’s feet), and between the brows (glabellar lines). It is ideal for individuals who want to reduce the signs of aging while preserving natural facial expressions.
Both Botox® and Dysport® are botulinum toxin injectables made to treat wrinkles and lines, but they have subtle differences. Botox® Cosmetic is known for its precision and ability to treat specific areas with detailed control. Dysport®, on the other hand, has a faster onset and may be more suitable for larger areas like the forehead. Botox® cosmetic remains a top choice for treating smaller, targeted areas such as crow’s feet and the glabellar lines between the brows. Our expert team will work with you to determine which treatment best suits your needs based on your goals.
Botox® works as a chemical that blocks the signals from nerves to the targeted muscles. Without these signals, the muscles relax, leading to a smoothing effect on the overlying skin. The injectable Botox® treatment effectively reduces the appearance of dynamic wrinkles caused by muscle contraction, such as those caused when you frown or raise your eyebrows.
Results typically start appearing within 3-5 days, with full effects visible after about two weeks. Following the treatment, it usually lasts 3-4 months, after which it can be repeated for continued results.

This treatment targets the muscles responsible for causing wrinkles around the eyes, such as crow’s feet. By relaxing these muscles, it smooths the skin, making the wrinkles less visible. The result is a natural, refreshed appearance that still allows for facial expressions without the deep lines.
This treatment can address wrinkles in the upper face, including forehead lines, crow’s feet, and frown lines between the brows (also called glabellar lines). It can also be used in other areas, such as the jawline or around the mouth, depending on the patient’s needs and goals.

The results of this treatment generally last three to four months. Over time, the effects begin to fade as the muscles regain their ability to contract. To maintain a smooth, youthful appearance, you can schedule follow-up treatments every few months. Many patients notice that with continued treatments, their results may last longer between sessions.
This treatment is considered safe for most individuals, but it’s important to discuss your medical history with our providers before treatment. Those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have certain medical conditions may not be candidates. A thorough consultation is essential to determine if this treatment is the best option for you.
After the treatment, you may experience slight redness, subtle swelling, or mild bruising at the injection sites, but these effects typically go away within a few hours to a day. It’s
important to avoid rubbing or massaging the area for at least 24 hours and to refrain from strenuous activities immediately after your session.
