Botox® Injections for Smooth & Refreshed Skin
Botox is a cosmetic treatment that can help reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles and provide a more youthful appearance. The treatment uses a form of Botulinum toxin type A, a neurotoxin that temporarily relaxes the muscles that contribute to wrinkles. At myEvergreen MedSpa in Memorial and The Woodlands, Texas, our experienced providers offer Botox injections to help patients achieve a refreshed and rejuvenated look. This non-surgical procedure has the potential to bring a noticeable difference to the face, leaving patients with a more youthful appearance.
What Is Botox®?
Botox Cosmetic by Allergan is a cosmetic treatment that involves injecting small amounts of botulinum toxin into facial muscles to temporarily reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. The toxin works by blocking nerve impulses that trigger muscle contractions, resulting in a smooth, relaxed appearance. Botox cosmetic is commonly used to treat facial wrinkles, such as crow’s feet and frown lines, but it can also be used for medical purposes, such as reducing muscle spasms and severe underarm sweating.

- Reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines

What to Expect During Your Botox® Appointment
Consultation
Your Botox journey begins with a personalized consultation at our luxury medspa in Houston or The Woodlands. During this visit, your provider will evaluate your facial anatomy, muscle activity, and wrinkle patterns while discussing your aesthetic goals. We’ll determine whether Botox is the best neurotoxin for you and create a customized treatment plan designed to deliver smooth, refreshed results.
Injection Process
During a Botox treatment, a small amount of botulinum toxin is carefully injected into specific facial muscles using a fine needle. Before the injection, the skin is cleaned, and a numbing cream may be applied to minimize discomfort. Your licensed practitioner will then carefully inject the Botox into the desired area, using precise techniques to ensure optimal results. The injection process is generally well-tolerated, with minimal discomfort. After the treatment, your practitioner will provide instructions on how to care for the treated area, including avoiding certain facial expressions and refraining from rubbing or massaging the area for a specified period. The procedure takes only a few minutes to complete, and the effects of Botox typically become noticeable within 3-7 days. Botox can last 4-6 months, after which the treatment can be repeated.
Immediately After Treatment
Botox requires little to no downtime. You may notice mild redness, swelling, or small bumps at the injection sites, which typically resolve within a few hours. Most patients return to normal activities the same day. Your provider will review aftercare instructions, including avoiding strenuous exercise, excessive heat, and rubbing the treated areas for the first 24 hours to protect your results.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Neurotoxins
Botox injections are ideal for adults looking for non-surgical wrinkle reduction or preventive anti-aging treatments. You may be a good candidate if you:
- Have dynamic wrinkles caused by facial expressions
- Want to soften forehead lines, frown lines, or crow’s feet
- Are interested in preventive Botox to slow wrinkle formation
- Prefer a non-surgical cosmetic treatment with minimal downtime
- Are in overall good health and not pregnant or nursing
- Want natural-looking Botox results administered by experienced providers
- A consultation is the best way to determine candidacy and customize your treatment.

| Unique Advantage | Most widely used with extensive safety history | Fast onset + greater spread | Pure formulation (no accessory proteins) | Twice the longevity of traditional neurotoxins |
There’s no “perfect” age. We see many patients who begin treatment in their 20s or early 30s as preventive Botox, while others start later to soften established wrinkles. Our providers tailor recommendations based on your individual needs, not a one-size-fits-all timeline.
Most patients describe Botox injections as a quick pinch or mild pressure. Treatments are performed using ultra-fine needles, and discomfort is minimal and brief. If needed, a topical numbing option can be used to enhance comfort.
Yes. Botox Cosmetic has been FDA-approved for cosmetic use since 2002 and is one of the most researched cosmetic injectables available. When administered by trained, licensed professionals, like our team at myEvergreen MedSpa, Botox is considered safe and effective for long-term use.
