Botox
Botox® is the world’s most trusted non-surgical aesthetic treatment for a reason—it works. At Everwell MD, we choose Botox for its proven ability to soften expression lines while maintaining facial harmony. We excel at this procedure by prioritizing a "natural-first" philosophy; our aesthetic providers use precision dosing to ensure you look well-rested and rejuvenated, never "frozen."
Soften fine lines and dynamic wrinkles.
10–20 minutes.
None; "lunchtime" procedure.
Visible in 3–7 days; full effect at 2 weeks.
Typically lasts 3–4 months.
Botox (OnabotulinumtoxinA) is a purified protein used to temporarily relax the specific muscles that cause wrinkles through repetitive movement. By blocking the nerve signals to these muscles, the overlying skin remains smooth and uncreased.
At Everwell MD, we offer Botox as a primary preventative and corrective solution for aging skin, often combining it with other skin health protocols for a holistic glow.
The Botox procedure is quick and can be typically be done during a lunch hour.
After a brief consultation to map your facial expressions, your aesthetic provider will use a very fine needle to administer a series of small injections into the targeted muscles. Most patients describe the sensation as a minor pinch.
What conditions does Botox address?
What areas of the body can Botox address?
Botox is primarily used on the upper face, specifically the forehead, between the brows, and around the eyes. It can also be used for "off-label" areas such as the masseters (jaw) for slimming or the neck bands to create a smoother profile.
The primary benefit of Botox is a smoother, more youthful complexion without the need for surgery.
Botox is ideal for adult men and women concerned about early signs of aging or seeking "pre-juvenation." It is not recommended for those who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have certain neurological disorders. Expectations should be realistic: Botox treats muscle-related wrinkles, not lines caused by sun damage or volume loss (which are better suited for fillers).
There is no formal recovery period. You may experience slight redness or tiny "mosquito bite" bumps at the injection site, which typically resolve within 30 minutes. We recommend staying upright for four hours post-treatment and avoiding strenuous exercise or excessive heat for 24 hours to ensure the protein stays exactly where it was placed for optimal results.
Patients typically notice a "softening" of their features within a few days, with the final, polished result appearing at the two-week mark. Your skin will appear smoother and your expression more relaxed. These results generally last between three and four months, at which point a maintenance treatment is recommended to sustain your look.
At Everwell MD, we believe aesthetics is a science and an art. Our aesthetic providers possess deep anatomical knowledge, ensuring that injections are placed perfectly for your unique face shape. We provide a boutique experience where your safety and your aesthetic goals are the only priorities.
