Neurotoxins in Coral Gables.
Smoothed expression lines that still move like your own. At EMVEE, Botox, Dysport, and Daxxify are placed with anatomical precision by Marcella Valdes, MMS, PA-C, a nationally board-certified injector with over five years of dedicated aesthetic experience, so results read as rested, never frozen.
What neurotoxins actually do.
Neurotoxins, Botox, Dysport, and Daxxify among them, temporarily relax the small facial muscles responsible for expression lines. Most commonly treated areas include the forehead, the glabella (the "11" lines between the brows), and crow's feet around the eyes, though neurotoxins are also used for a gummy smile and other targeted concerns.
Unlike dermal fillers, which add volume, neurotoxins work by softening muscle movement, which is why they're the go-to treatment for lines caused by repeated expression rather than lost volume. At EMVEE, dosing is calculated by treatment area and individual muscle strength, not a flat per-area price, so results stay proportionate to your face rather than following a generic formula.
Is this right for you?
- You're noticing forehead lines, "11s" between the brows, or crow's feet that show even at rest
- You want to soften expression lines without changing how your face moves
- You're new to injectables and want a conservative, natural-looking starting point
- You already get Botox elsewhere and want more precise, restrained dosing
- You're 18 or older and in general good health, with no active skin infection in the treatment area

These neurotoxins aren't dosed 1:1. As a general rule, it takes roughly 2.5 units of Dysport and 2 units of Daxxify to equal the effect of 1 unit of Botox. This is why unit counts and per-unit pricing look different across products even when the treated area and outcome are the same, your exact conversion is confirmed at consultation.
Most patients see results last three to four months, though this varies by individual metabolism, dosage, and treatment area. Staying on a regular schedule tends to extend how smooth results look over time.
Most patients describe it as a quick pinch per injection site. There's no real downtime, mild redness at injection points typically fades within the hour, and most patients return to normal activity immediately.
All three are neurotoxins that relax expression muscles, but they differ in onset speed, spread, and duration. Dysport tends to kick in faster and spread more broadly, Daxxify is formulated for longer-lasting results, and Botox remains the most established, longest-studied option. Marcella will recommend the best fit for your goals at consultation.
It depends entirely on the treatment area, your individual muscle strength, and which neurotoxin is used, since Botox, Dysport, and Daxxify aren't dosed on a 1:1 basis. Your exact unit count is assessed in person, never quoted sight-unseen.
Yes, that's the goal. EMVEE's approach favors conservative dosing that softens lines while preserving natural expression. The aim is always to look rested, not frozen.
