When Should You Start Botox?
Considering Botox? Learn the best age to begin Botox to prevent wrinkles. Watch our video guides featuring Kora Botox experts.
Botox Lip Flip for a Gummy Smile
The Botox Lip Flip procedure is perfect for anyone who wants to reduce the appearance of a gummy smile and achieve the perfect pout. This treatment involves injecting Botox above the upper lip at the center, near the Cupid’s bow. This injection of Botox allows the muscles to relax, causing the upper part of the lip inside the mouth to flip upward and outward. This method of Botox injections is designed to create a fuller, plumper pout in a natural-looking way as opposed to lip fillers that actually add volume.
Most Lip Flip clients see the effects within a few days of the injections, with full results visible in about a week or so. As always, individual results will vary per person. Learn more
TrapTox Botox for the Trap Muscles
TrapTox, also famously referred to as Barbie Botox, is becoming an increasingly popular aesthetic trend thanks to its ability to lengthen and slim the neck. This method of injecting Botox directly into the trapezius muscles creates the appearance of a slender, lean neck. In addition, this procedure is perfect for anyone who deals with tight trap muscles.DAO Botox
DAO Botox targets the depressor anguli oris muscle in the lower face. This muscle is specifically responsible for creating frown lines. As we age, the DAO muscle weakens, resulting in a permanent downward turn of the mouth. Luckily, regular Botox injections into the DAO muscles can reverse these signs of aging by relaxing these muscles and allowing you to say goodbye to that frown and hello to a more youthful, refreshed appearance. In addition, DAO Botox is also the perfect treatment for reducing lines, wrinkles, and dimples around the injection sites. Learn more
Chin Botox
Chin Botox treatments target chin dimples, sometimes called “orange peel chin.” Dimpling and wrinkling on the chin can sometimes be unavoidable as we age. Botox injections in the chin can help alleviate these wrinkles and lines for a smoother chin free from dimples. During the treatment, the Botox formula limits the movement of the muscles underneath the skin, allowing those responsible for the chin dimpling to relax and the skin of the chin to smooth out.

Neck Botox for Platysma Bands
If you notice more lines on your neck as you age, Platysma Band Botox can help! Neck Botox is the perfect solution for people noticing an influx in platysma bands as they get older. Botox injections into the neck help smooth the skin of the neck for a more youthful, rejuvenated appearance free from painfully obvious platysma bands. Learn more
Nose Botox for Bunny Lines
Nose Botox is a highly skill-sensitive procedure that is the perfect non-surgical way to perfect the nose by reducing bunny lines and creating the appearance of a more elongated and slenderer nose. Learn more
Underarm Botox for Hyperhidrosis
Hyperhidrosis or excessive sweating can significantly hinder your life, not to mention embarrassment. Botox is the first FDA-approved injectable capable of treating this disorder, preventing excessive sweating, and allowing you to live free from the embarrassment of sweaty armpits. Underarm Botox injects into the glands responsible for producing sweat, temporarily paralyzing them so they do not overproduce sweat, leaving you feeling dry, fresh, clean, and comfortable!

Does Botox hurt?
Most patients describe Botox injections as a slight pinch. The procedure is quick and virtually painless when performed by an experienced provider.
How much does Botox cost in Scottsdale?
The average price of Botox per unit in Arizona is between $10 and $20.. At KORA Aesthetics we offer Botox for $13 per unit, with a typical session ranges from $150-$300, depending on the treatment areas.
How much do 200 units of Botox cost?
Since the average price of Botox per unit is between $10 and $20, it would cost you about $2,000-$4,000 to purchase 200 units of Botox.
How much is a full face of Botox in Scottsdale?
For a full face Botox treatment, you’ll need around 40 to 50 units of Botox. Based on the average price of $10 – $20 per unit, a full face Botox treatment will cost you between $400 and $1,000.
How many units are in 1 syringe of Botox?
Botox comes in a vial which contains 100 units of Botox.
What is the average age for Botox?
The average age where most people begin receiving Botox treatment is in the 30s. At this age, wrinkles and creases start developing on the faces of both men and women, making it an ideal time to commence preventative Botox treatment. However, you could also choose Botox treatment if you’re in your 20s and have lines on your face.
Botox is suitable for adults over 18, with no upper age limit. Many people in their 40s, 50s, and even 60s benefit from Botox.
Does Botox make you look older after it wears off?
No. Once the injected Botox toxin wears off from your body, you will not look older. However, your muscles will start to work normally again, bringing back the unwanted wrinkles (the wrinkles aren’t any worse than before). Therefore, you should get consecutive injections to maintain the effects Botox has on your face.
Can I wash my face after Botox?
Yes, you can gently wash your face after Botox. Avoid hot water and vigorous rubbing for the first 24 hours.
What happens if I stop using Botox?
If you stop Botox treatments, your muscles will regain their normal function, and wrinkles may gradually reappear over time.
What’s better: Botox or Xeomin?
Both effectively reduce wrinkles, but Xeomin is often noted for a quicker onset and longer-lasting results. Xeomin is also slightly cheaper than Botox.
What’s the difference between Botox and fillers?
Botox relaxes muscles to reduce wrinkles, while fillers restore volume to areas like cheeks and lips. Fillers tend to last longer but are typically more expensive.
What are the main areas for Botox?
The three main areas are:
- Glabella (between the eyebrows)
- Forehead
- Crow’s feet (outer corners of the eyes)
Are there downsides to Botox?
Minor side effects include swelling, bruising, and headaches. Rare but serious complications may include breathing difficulties, vision issues, or muscle weakness. Always consult a qualified provider.
Is cosmetic Botox covered by insurance?
No. Botox treatment isn’t covered by insurance when you use it for cosmetic purposes. However, you can always inquire about the payment plans available at the treatment clinic if you can’t cover the full cost in a single payment.
