What is Botox?

Botox is a non-surgical cosmetic treatment designed to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by temporarily relaxing facial muscles. This FDA-approved injectable is commonly used to smooth dynamic wrinkles caused by repetitive facial expressions, such as crow’s feet, forehead lines, and frown lines.

Benefits of Botox:

  • Reduces Wrinkles & Fine Lines – Smooths forehead lines, crow’s feet, and frown lines.
  • Prevents New Wrinkles – Regular treatments can help prevent deeper wrinkles from forming.
  • Non-Surgical & Quick – Sessions take just 10-15 minutes with no downtime.
  • Natural-Looking Results – Our skilled injectors ensure subtle, refreshed results.
  • Long-Lasting Effects – Enjoy results for 3-4 months before a touch-up is needed.

For people with TMJ disorders, Botox injections can help reduce pain and create a more defined jawline by targeting the masseter muscle.

What Areas Can Botox Treat?

  • Forehead Lines – Smooth horizontal lines caused by raising your eyebrows.
  • Frown Lines (11s) – Minimize the vertical lines between the eyebrows.
  • Crow’s Feet – Reduce fine lines around the outer corners of the eyes.
  • Platysmal Bands – Reduces the appearance of platysmal bands & create a smoother, more youthful-looking neck
  • Brow Lift – Subtly lift and shape the brows for a youthful look.
  • Jawline & TMJ Relief – Slim the jawline and reduce discomfort from teeth grinding.
  • Lip Flip – Enhance the upper lip’s appearance by gently flipping it outward.
  • Chin Dimpling – Smooth the texture of the chin for a refined look.
  • Hyperhidrosis – Curb excessive sweat production in underarms and hands.

What To Expect Before a Botox Treatment

Before your Botox appointment, a specialist will assess and suggest options for your desired improvement areas. Avoid alcohol, and anti-inflammatory drugs like Ibuprofen, as well as aspirin and Vitamin E at least a week ahead to reduce the likelihood of bruising after the procedure.

What To Expect During a Botox Treatment

During a Botox treatment, a qualified nurse injector carefully injects the Botox with a tiny needle into targeted regions. This swift, nearly sensationless procedure is usually over in minutes.

What To Expect After a Botox Treatment

Following a Botox treatment, patients can typically see improved appearances within 2-3 days. It takes roughly two weeks for the full effects to become evident. The results of this procedure usually remain for about three months, although minor bruising may occur shortly after, which will subside on its own. To maintain the integrity of the treatment, avoid massaging the area.

Experience Matters & So Do Your Results

Our certified injector specialists have over 50 years of combined experience and receive ongoing advanced training from the top injectable companies in the world.

Our medical director is Dr. David Robbins, MD of Des Moines Plastic Surgery, Iowa’s only Quadruple Board Certified Plastic Surgeon. Our team’s understanding of aesthetics, industry trends, and how the product performs is why we are, year after year, Iowa’s #1 provider of Botox® Cosmetic.

Why Botox Is the Most Popular Injectable for Aging Skin

More than 7 million people in 70 different countries have experienced the benefits of Botox® Cosmetic to reverse signs of aging. When injected into the skin, it relaxes small facial muscles, which works to reduce facial wrinkles for several months.

Although Botox® Cosmetic is popular for women, men are looking at neurotoxins in a whole new way. According to the American Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, 3.6 million botulinum toxin procedures like Botox® Cosmetic were performed in the United States last year and of those, 11.5% were men.

FAQs about Botox

BOTOX® Cosmetic is an FDA-approved treatment to temporarily improve the appearance of both moderate to severe frown lines between the brows and crow’s feet in adults.

A Botox treatment targets the repeated muscle contractions from frowning and squinting as we age. These muscle contractions are the underlying causes of the frown lines and crow’s feet people often want to overcome. These dynamic wrinkles can give the appearance of being constantly tired, distressed or even angry. When Botox is injected into these facial muscles it relaxes them, allowing the skin that covers these muscles to take on a softer and smoother appearance.

Botox is safe to use in areas across the face, including regions that are considered delicate or sensitive. It can be safely used around the eyes, the brow, the forehead, the chin, and the neck. It can be used to treat a wide variety of common wrinkles, such as:

  • Crow’s feet
  • Frown lines
  • Vertical brow wrinkles
  • Horizontal forehead creases
  • Chin wrinkles
  • Vertical neck bands

Botox is also often used for jaw/jawline contouring, and for medical purposes like the treatment of migraine headaches and hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating in the armpits and other regions).

For cheek gauntness, undereye hollows, lip augmentation, and harsh wrinkles around the mouth, Botox is not an ideal solution. Our dermal fillers are a more effective option for these issues.

During your initial consultation with a member of our injectable specialist team, your provider will ask you about the specific wrinkles you are trying to address using Botox injections. This will help to determine the number of units needed to provide the best possible results from your treatment.

  1. A treatment time of about 25 to 30 minutes.
  2. Near painless with absolutely zero downtime.
  3. Natural, visible results within two weeks.
  4. Results that last an average of 3 months.

At Des Moines Plastic Surgery™ and Coachlight, our injectable team has completed tens of thousands of injections over their many years of experience. They have helped our practice become part of Allergan’s Elite Black Diamond Partner Program to which we have entered the top 100 aesthetic practices in the United States to administer Allergan products (Botox® Cosmetic, Juvederm®, and Latissse®).

During your appointment, you may be asked about your skin care regimen and we will examine the areas of your face you wish to have treated. From this examination, we will choose specific areas for Botox® injection.

Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed around the chosen points of injection. The areas of the face being treated with Botox will be marked to identify precisely where the injections will go. The total time for your treatment will usually not exceed 15-30 minutes.

Using a special technique, we will use a syringe to inject the Botox® Cosmetic solution into the muscle. While a topical anesthetic may be available, it is usually not necessary.

Once injected into a specific muscle, Botox® Cosmetic works to temporarily treat frown lines, forehead creases, crows feet near the eyes, and thick bands in the neck by blocking the chemical signal from the nerve to the muscle that causes wrinkles. This decreases the contraction of the muscle, which causes the overlying fine line or wrinkles to smooth out, giving your skin a smoother, more refreshed appearance.

Because of the ease and simplicity of Botox injections, there is no recovery period required. However, some patients may prefer to take an hour or two after their treatment to lie down and relax. There may be some redness around the injection sites.

It will take some time to see the results of your Botox treatment. After around five days, you should notice some improvement, and these results will continue to improve over the coming days. Botox results typically last for three months before guests need another treatment, and most guests receive treatments three times a year.

A common question we hear from naive/new people to Botox is if the treatment will make them look “frozen”. At Coachlight our goal is to educate our guests about how when Botox is dosed correctly, they receive a result of reduced fine lines & wrinkles, not no movement.

Your Botox dose is adjusted appropriately over the course of time based on your appearance and need to help prevent harsh lines and wrinkles from forming.

For best treatment outcome and longevity, we recommend guests receive a BOTOX® Cosmetic treatment three times a year. Known as The Look of 3 – guests typically get a treatment in the three main areas that include frown lines, crow’s feet lines, and forehead lines in adults and get the FDA-recommended dose of 64 Units for treating these three areas. 

Actual unit dosage will vary from guest to guest and be based on the provider’s recommendation, however, a guest can expect to need approximately 50+ units to treat all three main areas.

Another treatment option that we offer with BOTOX is called a “lip flip”. Rather than using a lip filler, this lip procedure features injections of Botox.

During a lip flip, Botox is injected into the Cupid’s bow area of the upper lip, along with the corners of the upper lip. This relaxes the muscles, which allows more of the upper lip to show, creating more volume. It can also address a gummy smile. The procedure only takes up to 20 minutes to perform.

The results of lip flip injections last for eight to twelve weeks; after this time, patients can return for maintenance treatments.

If it’s right for you, The Look of 3 is an opportunity to be treated in 3 areas, with 64 Units, at least 3 times a year. The result? You’ll look like yourself but with noticeably smoother-looking lines.

3 AREAS
It all starts with an important fact: Only BOTOX® Cosmetic is FDA approved to temporarily improve the look of 3 areas―moderate to severe frown lines, crow’s feet lines, and forehead lines in adults.

64 UNITS
Dosing is a key variable to desired aesthetic outcomes. With The Look of 3, the BOTOX® Cosmetic dosing amounts have been proven through rigorous testing―20 Units in your frown lines, 24 Units in your crow’s feet lines, and 20 Units in your forehead lines.

AT LEAST 3 TIMES A YEAR
It’s equally important to space out your treatments―at least 90 days apart. Since the BOTOX® Cosmetic effect is temporary, you’ll need to be consistent with scheduling evaluations for your next treatment.

Be sure to keep up with your appointments―remember, every consultation is another opportunity to receive BOTOX® Cosmetic.

Botox isn’t only for reducing existing wrinkles; it can also be a proactive measure to prevent them from forming in the first place, notably in facial areas prone to expression lines.

Botox treatments are quick and typically pain-free, handled by our expert professionals. These non-surgical sessions last approximately 25 to 30 minutes and yield impressive outcomes.

Botox treatments reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles by relaxing the muscles that contribute to their formation. Dermal fillers restore and plump skin volume, resulting in a softened and smoother complexion.

Botox should be avoided by pregnant or breastfeeding women, individuals with neuromuscular disorders like ALS, and those with known allergies to its components.

Before your Botox treatment avoid alcohol and any medications or supplements that can thin your blood, such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and vitamin E for two weeks to minimize bruising. Also, inform your provider of any medicines you’re taking, underlying health issues, and known allergies.
