Botox to Lift, Not Just Freeze

Elevate Your Features with Strategic, Subtle Botox at The LAB

Botox has long been known for its wrinkle-smoothing powers—but at The LAB Aesthetics and Wellness, we use it for more than just softening fine lines. When expertly placed, Botox can lift, contour, and brighten the face—without a frozen look.

If you've avoided Botox out of fear of looking stiff or expressionless, it's time to discover what Botox can really do.

The Science of a Botox Lift

Botox works by relaxing the muscles it’s injected into. Traditionally, it’s used to reduce movement that causes wrinkles—but there’s a lesser-known benefit: when certain downward-pulling muscles are relaxed, opposing muscles can lift more effectively.

This creates a gentle, natural-looking lift that brightens your overall appearance.

What Can Botox Lift?

At The LAB, our most popular lifting Botox treatments include:

  • Brow Lift: Opens and lifts the eye area for a more rested look

  • Lip Flip: Rolls the upper lip upward slightly to reveal more pink lip

  • Gummy Smile Correction: Reduces upper lip elevation for a balanced smile

  • Jawline/Nefertiti Lift: Relaxes neck bands and tightens the jawline

  • Mouth Corners: Gently lifts downward-turning mouth corners

By customizing your injection pattern, we can enhance your facial contours without any drastic changes.

Why Botox at The LAB Looks So Natural

We take a minimalist approach—targeting specific muscles for lift and contour while maintaining natural expression. Our medical aesthetic providers are trained in facial anatomy, proportions, and advanced techniques, ensuring precise, elegant results.

We also educate our patients on what to expect and when to refresh their results—so you always feel in control of your look.

What to Expect During Treatment

  • Quick, comfortable procedure (usually under 20 minutes)

  • Little to no downtime

  • Results appear in 3–10 days and last 3–4 months

  • Follow-up and adjustments available if needed

We also offer treatments such as dermal fillers or DiamondGlow facials to boost your glow and maximize your lift.

Why Choose The LAB for Botox in Spokane?

We aren’t a high-volume Botox bar. At The LAB, each treatment is done with care, intention, and deep knowledge of facial harmony.

Here’s why our patients keep coming back:

  • Personalized consultations for every Botox treatment

  • Advanced lifting techniques tailored to your goals

  • Honest guidance—no upselling, just results

  • A calm, clinical environment where you feel heard

Your Lifted, Refreshed Look Starts Here

Whether you’re looking to brighten your eyes, define your jawline, or subtly lift your lips—Botox at The LAB Aesthetics and Wellness delivers results that are elevated, not exaggerated.

Book your consultation today and experience the difference of Botox done right.

Facial Balancing: The Art of Harmony, Not Overfilling

Reimagine Your Features with Subtle Enhancements that Bring Out Your Natural Beauty

In a world of exaggerated fillers and frozen expressions, facial balancing offers a refreshing, elevated approach to aesthetics. At The LAB Aesthetics and Wellness, we believe beauty lies in proportion, harmony, and individuality—not perfection.

Whether you're new to injectables or have dabbled in fillers before, our philosophy of facial balancing ensures your features are enhanced, not altered.

What Is Facial Balancing?

Facial balancing is a technique that addresses your face as a whole—not just isolated features like lips or cheeks. Our aesthetic providers assess your facial structure from every angle and use injectables strategically to bring your face into ideal proportion.

Instead of chasing trends, we focus on what makes you unique—and how to elevate it.

Facial balancing often includes treatment in the:

  • Temples (to restore volume and frame the eyes)

  • Cheeks (for midface lift and contour)

  • Chin (to lengthen and define the profile)

  • Jawline (for crisp, sculpted angles)

  • Lips (for harmony, not just volume)

The Benefits of Facial Balancing

  • Creates a naturally refreshed appearance

  • Enhances symmetry and proportion

  • Reduces signs of aging without looking "done"

  • Strengthens your facial profile

  • Customizable to your unique anatomy and goals

How It Works at The LAB

When you visit The LAB in Spokane for facial balancing, you’ll receive a comprehensive consultation and facial analysis with one of our experienced injectors. We use advanced knowledge of facial anatomy to plan your treatment—often combining dermal fillers with Botox for optimal results.

Your results won’t scream “filler”—they’ll whisper, “refreshed, confident, beautiful.”

Why Choose The LAB for Facial Balancing?

At The LAB Aesthetics and Wellness, our priority is natural results that celebrate your features—not cover them up. Here’s what makes us different:

  • We specialize in full-face analysis, not quick fixes

  • Our injectors have an eye for detail, proportion, and facial symmetry

  • We use only premium products (Juvederm line)

  • Every treatment is fully customized to your anatomy and goals

Our patients often say they don’t look “done”—they just look like the best version of themselves. That’s the power of facial harmony.

Ready to Experience Subtle, Stunning Change?

Facial balancing can be life-changing—and it starts with one personalized consultation.

Book your appointment at The LAB Aesthetics and Wellness today and let our skilled injectors help you restore harmony, proportion, and confidence in your features.

The Ultimate Duo: CoolSculpting & Medical Weight Loss with GLP-1s

Unlock the Power of Body Contouring + Sustainable Weight Loss

If you've been working hard to improve your health, eating better, moving more, and maybe even taking GLP-1 medications like Semaglutide or Tirzepatide—you're already making huge strides toward a healthier version of you. But what about those stubborn areas of fat that won’t budge, even with the scale going down?

Enter the powerful synergy of CoolSculpting and Medical Weight Loss using GLP-1s, available at The LAB Aesthetics and Wellness in Spokane. This dynamic combination gives you the best of both worlds: overall weight loss and targeted body contouring.

Why Combine CoolSculpting with GLP-1s?

GLP-1 medications help suppress appetite, improve metabolic health, and promote significant weight loss—but they don’t control where your body loses fat. For many people, stubborn pockets of fat in areas like the belly, love handles, arms, or chin remain long after they've lost weight.

That’s where CoolSculpting comes in.

CoolSculpting is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared procedure that uses controlled cooling to freeze and eliminate fat cells permanently. When combined with the fat-burning effects of GLP-1s, it creates a comprehensive transformation that helps you look as good as you feel.

Benefits of This Combination

  • More visible results: As you shed pounds with GLP-1s, CoolSculpting helps shape your body

  • Boost confidence: Target trouble areas like love handles or bra fat

  • Non-surgical: No downtime, no anesthesia, just results

  • Permanent fat reduction: Fat cells eliminated by CoolSculpting don’t come back

  • Custom plans at The LAB: Tailored to your weight loss journey

Why Choose The LAB Aesthetics and Wellness?

The LAB is more than just a med spa—we’re your personalized wellness partner. Our Medical Weight Loss Program includes:

  • Initial consultation + first GLP-1 injection for $299

  • Weekly Semaglutide ($90/week) or Tirzepatide ($120/week)

  • No upcharging by milligram—your dosage increases as your body needs

  • Medical provider support and goal tracking

Our CoolSculpting team offers customized treatment plans based on your body goals, medical history, and lifestyle. We use cutting-edge equipment, perform every treatment with precision, and always put your comfort and safety first.

Ready to Redefine Your Body?

Book your consultation at The LAB Aesthetics and Wellness and discover how combining CoolSculpting with GLP-1s can help you achieve the transformation you deserve—no surgery, no guesswork, just real results.

Boosting Men's Health: The Role of Testosterone Replacement Therapy, Exercise, and GLP-1s

In today's fast-paced world, prioritizing men's health is more important than ever. One often overlooked aspect of men's wellness is testosterone levels. Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) can play a crucial role in maintaining optimal health, especially when combined with regular exercise and innovative treatments like GLP-1s. Let's dive into how these elements can work together to unlock your best self.

Understanding Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT)

Testosterone is a vital hormone responsible for many physiological functions in men, including muscle mass, bone density, red blood cell production, and sexual function. As men age, testosterone levels naturally decline, which can lead to a range of health issues such as fatigue, depression, decreased libido, and loss of muscle mass.

TRT is a medical treatment designed to restore healthy testosterone levels in men who have low testosterone. This therapy can come in various forms, including injections, patches, gels, and pellets. By boosting testosterone levels, TRT can help improve energy, mood, libido, and overall quality of life.

Benefits of TRT

  1. Increased Muscle Mass and Strength: Testosterone is crucial for muscle growth. TRT can help men regain muscle mass and strength, which is particularly beneficial for those who are active or looking to improve their physical fitness.

  2. Improved Bone Density: Low testosterone levels can lead to decreased bone density, increasing the risk of fractures. TRT can help maintain bone health and reduce this risk.

  3. Enhanced Mood and Mental Health: Testosterone has a significant impact on mood and mental well-being. Many men report feeling more energetic, motivated, and less depressed after starting TRT.

  4. Better Libido and Sexual Performance: Low testosterone can lead to a decreased sex drive and erectile dysfunction. TRT can improve libido and sexual function, enhancing intimate relationships.

The Synergy of TRT and Exercise

While TRT can offer numerous health benefits on its own, combining it with a consistent workout regimen can amplify its effects. Exercise is a cornerstone of a healthy lifestyle, providing both physical and mental health benefits. Here’s how exercise complements TRT:

  1. Enhanced Muscle Growth: With increased testosterone levels from TRT, your body is better equipped to build muscle. Strength training exercises like weight lifting can maximize muscle growth and improve overall physique.

  2. Improved Fat Loss: Higher testosterone levels can boost metabolism, making it easier to burn fat. Coupling this with cardio and strength training exercises can lead to significant body composition improvements.

  3. Better Cardiovascular Health: Regular exercise improves heart health, circulation, and stamina. Combining this with the benefits of TRT can enhance overall cardiovascular fitness.

  4. Boosted Endurance and Energy Levels: Exercise naturally increases energy levels and endurance. When paired with TRT, which also aims to boost energy, the effects can be even more pronounced.

Integrating GLP-1s for Optimal Health

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) agonists are a class of medications initially developed for diabetes management. They have recently gained attention for their potential benefits in weight management and metabolic health. Combining GLP-1s with TRT and a robust exercise routine can provide a holistic approach to men's health.

Benefits of GLP-1s

  1. Weight Management: GLP-1s help regulate appetite and promote feelings of fullness, aiding in weight loss and management. This is particularly beneficial for men looking to improve their body composition.

  2. Improved Metabolic Health: GLP-1s can improve insulin sensitivity and blood sugar control, reducing the risk of diabetes and other metabolic disorders.

  3. Enhanced Cardiovascular Health: These medications have been shown to have positive effects on cardiovascular health, potentially reducing the risk of heart disease.

Combining TRT, Exercise, and GLP-1s

  1. Personalized Fitness Plans: At The LAB Fitness Studio, we believe in tailoring fitness programs to individual needs. Incorporating TRT and GLP-1s into a personalized fitness plan can optimize results, helping you achieve your health and fitness goals more effectively.

  2. Holistic Wellness Approach: Combining these therapies promotes a comprehensive approach to wellness, addressing hormonal balance, physical fitness, and metabolic health simultaneously.

  3. Regular Monitoring and Support: It’s important to work with healthcare professionals to monitor your progress and adjust treatments as needed. Regular check-ups ensure that you are receiving the maximum benefit from your TRT, exercise routine, and GLP-1 therapy.

Conclusion

Men’s health is a multifaceted journey that requires attention to various aspects of well-being. Testosterone Replacement Therapy, when combined with regular exercise and innovative treatments like GLP-1s, can offer a powerful approach to improving overall health and quality of life. By embracing a holistic wellness strategy, you can unlock your best self and enjoy a healthier, more vibrant life.

Unlocking Your Best Self: Combining CoolTone, Workouts, and GLP-1s

In the quest for optimal health and fitness, the combination of innovative technologies and proven medical therapies can offer remarkable results. CoolTone, an FDA-cleared body contouring treatment, and GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) medications, originally developed for diabetes management, are two such advancements that are making waves in the fitness community. When integrated into a comprehensive workout regimen, these tools can enhance muscle tone, boost weight loss, and contribute to overall well-being.

What is CoolTone?

CoolTone by Allergan is a non-invasive body contouring treatment designed to strengthen and tone muscles. Using Magnetic Muscle Stimulation (MMS) technology, CoolTone induces powerful muscle contractions, which are more intense than those achieved through voluntary exercise. This results in stronger, firmer muscles, particularly in the abdomen, buttocks, and thighs.

How CoolTone Works

CoolTone works by sending electromagnetic energy into the muscle layers, triggering involuntary contractions. These contractions are similar to the effects of an intense workout, targeting muscle fibers and promoting muscle growth and conditioning. A typical CoolTone session lasts about 30 minutes and is equivalent to thousands of muscle contractions, providing a significant workout boost without the physical strain.

Incorporating CoolTone into Your Workout Routine

  1. Complementing Exercise: CoolTone is not a substitute for regular exercise but rather a complement. It can help you achieve muscle definition that might be difficult to attain through exercise alone, especially in stubborn areas.

  2. Targeted Muscle Enhancement: Use CoolTone to target specific muscle groups that need extra attention. This can be especially beneficial if you're looking to enhance muscle symmetry or improve muscle strength in areas that are hard to isolate with traditional workouts.

  3. Recovery and Performance: The intense muscle contractions induced by CoolTone can aid in muscle recovery, improving overall performance. It can be particularly useful for athletes or fitness enthusiasts looking to enhance their training routines.

The Role of GLP-1 Medications

GLP-1 medications, such as semaglutide and tirzepatide, are traditionally used to manage type 2 diabetes by regulating blood sugar levels. However, they have also been found to be effective in weight management. These medications work by mimicking the GLP-1 hormone, which increases insulin secretion, decreases glucagon levels, and slows gastric emptying, leading to reduced appetite and food intake.

Integrating GLP-1s into Your Fitness Plan

  1. Weight Management: GLP-1 medications can assist in weight loss by reducing appetite and promoting a feeling of fullness. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals struggling with obesity or those who have hit a plateau in their weight loss journey.

  2. Enhanced Energy Levels: By stabilizing blood sugar levels, GLP-1s can help maintain consistent energy levels throughout the day, improving overall workout performance and endurance.

  3. Comprehensive Health Benefits: Beyond weight loss, GLP-1 medications offer several health benefits, including improved cardiovascular health, reduced risk of diabetes, and better metabolic function, contributing to a holistic approach to fitness and well-being.

Maximizing Results: The Synergy of CoolTone, Workouts, and GLP-1s

Combining CoolTone treatments with a regular workout routine and GLP-1 medications can create a powerful synergy, enhancing overall fitness and health outcomes. Here’s how to maximize your results:

  1. Consistency is Key: Regular CoolTone sessions, combined with consistent exercise and adherence to GLP-1 medication, can yield the best results. Create a balanced schedule that includes cardio, strength training, and CoolTone sessions to target different aspects of fitness.

  2. Monitor Progress: Keep track of your progress through measurements, photos, and fitness assessments. This can help you adjust your regimen as needed and stay motivated.

  3. Consult Professionals: Work with the team here at The LAB Aesthetics and Wellness as well as The LAB Fitness Studio to develop a tailored plan that suits your individual needs and goals. Professional guidance can ensure safe and effective use of CoolTone and GLP-1 medications that take the entirety of your wellness journey into account.

  4. Maintain a Healthy Lifestyle: Alongside these advanced treatments, maintain a healthy lifestyle with a balanced diet, adequate sleep, and stress management. This holistic approach will support your fitness journey and overall well-being.

Conclusion

By integrating CoolTone treatments with a structured workout routine and GLP-1 medications, you can unlock a new level of fitness and health. This combination offers targeted muscle enhancement, effective weight management, and comprehensive health benefits, empowering you to achieve your best self. Embrace the synergy of these advanced tools and embark on a transformative fitness journey today.

5 Things to Know About Lip Fillers

5 things to know before getting lip filler

If you’ve been thinking about just adding some hydration to your lips, or completely enhancing your pout, there are some important things to know prior to numbing up.

1. Not all fillers are created equal. Do your research and choose a reputable dermal filler product that’s high quality and comes with a long, well documented track record. When you’re placing a filler in your body that’s going to change your appearance – and be there for a long time – don’t cut corners for the sake of convenience or a few dollars! This is why we use both Juvéderm and RHA dermal fillers for their reputable and result driven histories.

2. It isn’t forever. Because hyaluronic acid is eventually metabolized by your body over time, it isn’t permanent. You can remove hyaluronic acid fillers if you don’t like your results, by having an enzyme injected, which dissolves the filler. Some fillers will last longer than others, and each person metabolize filler differently.

3. You can go about your daily life afterwards but don’t have a treatment immediately before any big events (like a wedding or important function) – allow at least five days in case you bruise or have lingering swelling.

4. You will see the results immediately; although they might be slightly over-inflated to start! Your lips will be swollen at first, but you’ll see the effects of the fillers quickly. The swelling can take 1-3 days to go down and the filler will fully settle by 2 weeks.

5. Choose an honest provider. It’s important to select a provider that will give you an honest idea of the results you can expect – who can tell you if they can’t achieve what you want, and can suggest that you pull back when you might be going a bit too far.
