Fine lines don’t appear overnight. As collagen and elastin slow down, every frown, smile, or raised brow starts to leave a trace. Botox® is a quick, non-surgical way we use at Lotus Laser Aesthetics in Sartell and Isle, MN to soften these expression lines and refresh your natural look.
Botox is a purified neuromodulator that relaxes targeted facial muscles. When a tiny amount is injected, it blocks the signal that tells the muscle to contract. The skin above the muscle then smooths out, helping wrinkles soften and new ones form more slowly. Results typically appear within a few days and can last three to four months.
Where can Botox be used on your face?
Because Botox works on muscle movement, it is ideal for “dynamic wrinkles” , lines that show up when you raise your brows, squint, or laugh. At our medical spa in Sartell and Isle, we commonly treat:
Forehead lines
Horizontal “surprise” lines form when you raise your brows. Carefully placed Botox or Jeuveau softens these without making the forehead look heavy or frozen, so you still look like you , just more rested.
Frown lines (“11s”)
The vertical lines between the eyebrows can make you look stressed or upset even when you feel fine. Treating this area relaxes the muscles that pull the brows together, giving a calmer, more open expression.
Crow’s feet
These fine lines around the outer corners of the eyes are some of the first signs of aging. Botox in this area smooths the skin and brightens the eye area, especially when combined with a Hydrafacial® or gentle laser skin treatment.
Bunny lines
Small creases on the bridge of the nose appear when you scrunch or laugh. A few units of Botox soften these lines for a more even, refined profile.
Lip lines and gummy smile
Tiny vertical “smoker’s lines” above the upper lip and a smile that shows too much gum can both be improved with precise injections, helping the mouth look smoother and more balanced without changing your natural smile.
Chin dimpling and jawline
Overactive chin muscles can cause dimpling or an orange-peel look. In the jaw, masseter Botox can gently slim a bulky, square jawline while also easing clenching or grinding for some patients.
Botox vs. Jeuveau , what’s the difference?
Lotus Laser Aesthetics offers both Botox and Jeuveau for facial rejuvenation. Both are FDA-approved neuromodulators that work in a very similar way: they relax the muscles that create dynamic wrinkles.
Many patients love Botox because it is a well-known classic with a long safety track record. Others prefer Jeuveau, sometimes called “Newtox,” which can feel a touch lighter and may fit certain budgets or treatment plans better.
During your consultation, your injector will recommend the product and dose that best matches your goals, lifestyle, and past treatment history.

What to expect at your Botox appointment
Your visit at Lotus Laser Aesthetics starts with a detailed consultation. We review your medical history, listen carefully to your concerns, and examine your skin and facial movement. Together, we decide which areas to treat , for example, only crow’s feet, or a full upper-face refresh , and whether Botox or Jeuveau is the better option for you.
Treatment itself is quick, usually 10, 20 minutes. Most patients describe the injections as a brief pinch. You can return to work, errands, or school right away; we simply ask that you:
- Stay upright for four hours
- Avoid heavy exercise the same day
- Skip rubbing or massaging the treated areas
You may see small pink bumps or mild redness at the injection sites for 10, 20 minutes, and slight swelling or bruising is possible but usually minimal. Results start to appear in three to five days and continue to improve for up to two weeks.
How long do results last?
For most patients in the St. Cloud, MN and Central Minnesota area, Botox and Jeuveau last about three to four months. With consistent treatment, many people notice that their lines come back softer and less deeply etched, because the muscles are not creasing the skin as strongly over time. Some patients choose to pair their injections with Hydrafacial, pigment correction, or vascular lesion treatments for even more skin rejuvenation.
Is Botox right for you?
You may be a good candidate for Botox or Jeuveau if you:
- See fine lines when you smile, squint, or frown
- Want smoother skin without surgery or downtime
- Prefer subtle, natural-looking results rather than a “frozen” look
- Are generally healthy and not pregnant or breastfeeding
If you are also bothered by texture, pigmentation, acne scars, or unwanted facial hair, our team can combine your Botox plan with Hydrafacials, laser hair removal, active acne treatments, pigment correction, or vascular lesion therapy for a customized approach.
