I walked out the doors of Koch Plastic Surgery today and cried tears of happiness. I was born with pointed ears. All through grade school, college and even to this day, I have been called "Spock", have been asked if I can fly, been laughed at, and the list goes on and on. I rarely wore my hair in a ponytail when I was in school, unless it was low and covered my ears. Dr. Brenton Koch had me smiling the biggest smile you could imagine when I left his office today. My ear points are gone and although I can no longer "fly" anymore as so many seemed to think I could because of my ears, I'm on top of the world! His graciousness and the kindness and professionalism of both the doctor and his staff was 10x better than I ever imagined. If you are hesitant at all to choose Dr. Brenton Koch at Koch Facial Plastic Surgery or are considering anyone else, please take this in and look no further. This place just fixed my ears of 41 years! I can't wait to wake up in the morning and see the new me! Thank you! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!

A few weeks ago, I had a rather large basal cell carcinoma removed from the left side of my nose. I was told I would need facial reconstruction surgery and I was sent directly to Koch Facial Plastic Surgery and Spa. Dr. Cody Koch saw me right away and made me feel comfortable. He explained in detail my upcoming procedures. Dr. Cody Koch, and his staff, especially Barbara and Sally, and the girls upfront were so accommodating. They were available for phone calls or text messaging if I had any questions. I have been very pleased with their service. I would highly recommend them. They are extremely compassionate and caring.

My family has a history of hooded eyelids; we all look tired and old before our time and visually miss out seeing 30 percent of the world around us. I knew my father, a USAF pilot, had upper lid blepharoplasty at 55 years. A large KOCH wall ad at the Des Moines airport got me thinking - at 62 years maybe it is time. I didn't recognize the tired man in recent photos and looking in the mirror was depressing. Although I live in Missouri - I felt the academic training and clinic work by Dr. Cody Koch prepared him to be a trusted doctor. I would travel to Des Moines, Iowa. At my consult we discussed both upper and lower blepharoplasty. I am glad I did both at the same time. Dr. Cody Koch was very clear about what he could do and if my expectations were achievable. Let me say he far surpassed my highest expectations. Despite the hassles of Covid and his high in demand schedule, I was able to get in by August. I was comfortable throughout the whole process: prep, surgery, after-care to the one month follow-up. Amazing skill, fast, no pain and only amazing results. I was given access to Dr. Cody Koch through his personal cell phone to text questions as needed (responses were back in minutes - wow) . This type of care was unexpected and very reassuring. He was both supportive and clear about the typical issues post surgery into the first month. No surprises. Two weeks post surgery, the only clue I had the top and bottom procedures were the major improvement in my looks. See my face pic above. Upon my first post surgery Facebook profile image update - my international friends (I do a lot of international lectures) asked if this was my younger brother? I replied - good diet, exercise and rest. Let them wonder. My granddaughter says I have big eyes now. Haha. My advice is why wait? You have one of the best plastic surgeons ready to improve you - not change you. Written with great appreciation to the entire KOCH TEAM. Jason

Dr. Brent Koch is so professional and takes time to listen to me. I highly recommend him. I’ve gone to him off & on for years! I wouldn’t want anyone else to do my facial needs. Dr. Brent took care of my nose after some skin cancer years ago & I am 100% satisfied! I have had Botox & I’m going to be getting fillers with him. I’m also going to be doing an S~Lift procedure in the near future and I trust him 100% I’ve had great results with my Botox & I’m looking so forward to fillers. My daughter who is almost 18 will also be seeing him in the future for her concerns. I’ve had a facial here and purchased products I use & the staff is all so friendly & professional.

I had my rhinoplasty 2 weeks ago with Dr. Brent Koch and I’m already so pleased with the results. The entire process was a breeze. Brent made me feel at ease and answered all my questions from the day of my consultation to my post op visits. Traci made scheduling the appointment, payments and coordinating with the surgery center and anesthesia so simple on my end. The surgery itself was not as bad as I expected, I had very little pain (only needed a pain pill the night of surgery) and I felt like my normal self by day 3-4.

At 32 years old, I was diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma on my nose. I’ve never once been in a tanning bed and it was a huge shock to me. Derm didn’t want to biopsy since it was large and on my “small” nose, so they sent me straight to Dr Cody. He called me on a SUNDAY with my biopsy results! Derm did Mohs surgery and Dr Cody repaired my nose the same day. Despite a more painful experience than I imagined, 3 months later, most people can’t tell I have anything wrong with my nose, and it gets better and less noticeable each week. I cannot say enough GREAT things about him and the entire office. Everyone was nice, courteous, and extremely complimentary through the entire process.

I'd had surgery as a child to correct a severe ptosis that I was born with. Even after that correction, my eyelids were droopy. After decades of living with it, I consulted with Dr. Cody Koch. Another doctor had recommended a more expensive and invasive surgical procedure, but Dr. Koch came right out and said that he thought I'd get "more bang for my buck" with a much cheaper and less invasive blepharoplasty. I was a challenge for him because of the surgery done when I was three years old. But my eyes are beautiful now and for the first time in my life, I'm not self-conscious about my saggy lids. And a huge bonus—I have a wider field of view and my right eye no longer turns out when I'm having a close-range conversation with someone. Dr. Koch, his staff, and the staff at West Lakes Surgical Center were outstanding! I'm so grateful to him!

For one of my first facials at KochMD, it was definitely an awesome experience from start to finish. I am hooked on their impeccable service...and that has guaranteed many return visits!

She made me feel comfortable and explained step by step what the facial would consist of. The facial felt wonderful and she did an extraordinary job at targeting my problem areas...I was amazed and very happy with the outcome. After she was finished we had time to go over any questions and if I had any future concerns she told me I could email/call her. Thanks Elise and KochMD, we'll see you next month. -Gina D.

Last November Dr. Koch rebuilt my nose and corrected my field of vision by doing my sagging eye lids. I was asked at my first visit, "when did you break your nose?" My response, "which time!" My nose reconstruction went exactly the way he described. I got along great and followed all of his instructions. I knew exactly what to expect. You might say, my breathing went from breathing through a straw, to now like breathing through a large culvert. Dr. Koch's entire team was wonderful! My entire treatment was outstanding and my results, a story of success! I am so happy with my breathing, I sleep better, my vision is way better...

I had surgery with Dr. Koch after I broke and dislocated my nose. I had already had a septo/rhinoplasty with an ENT previously, which didn't help at all (recurrent sinusitis, difficulty breathing). After my nose surgery with Dr. Koch, my nose not only looks better than it did before my accident, I can breathe much better, and don't have recurrent sinus infection. Dr. Koch was very nice, his staff was amazing, and even though I hurt afterwards (of course!), he made the experience much much better than my previous nose surgery. I am very happy with it.

I had a procedure done by Dr. Koch on my face, literally taking years off my appearance. It was a learning, but exciting experience, and Dr. Koch was available day and night for any questions, concerns, or problems. The procedure itself was painless, while the recovery time was a little longer than expected, although I was informed about the after effects. From beginning to when the last of the swelling and numbness disappeared, was approximately three months, which is typical for this type of procedure. I found Dr. Koch to be not only very personable and animated, but a sincere and dedicated physician whose concern was only for that of the patient. His staff was extremely professional and I could call any time of day or night with any concerns. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Koch and his services to anyone looking to become a little younger and happier with their appearance. The whole experience was great and I am very happy with all results.

I think that Dr Koch is a very good surgeon. I don't feel that he is totally forthcoming with information about his surgeries, risks and what recovery will be like. If he did, there would probably be fewer elective cosmetic procedures. That said, I believe he is the best plastic surgeon in Des Moines.

BEWARE! My spouse had his/her deviated septem done and a rhinoplasty and Dr. Koch said that it would not change the nose shape.... Well it did!!!! After injections to try and make the nose look more symetrical, one injection hit a nerve and causing exterior scarring that is very visible, My spouse's does not look the same at all.! After talking with Dr. Koch personally to see what other options we had, he told me my spouse had body dysmorphia disorder because he/she wasn't happy with their nose. Who says that!? Not a doctor to a patient who is wanting to breathe better and definitely not a patient who has had work done on their face that everyone sees EVERY DAY. Oh the nerve!

About PRP Therapy

PRP therapy has long been used by athletes to hasten recovery after injury. Blood platelets are rich in a variety of growth factors, which stimulate tissue regeneration throughout the body. When concentrated and administered to a particular treatment area, the growth factors produce amplified results. PRP therapy “fools” your body into producing more collagen at the injection site — and because the therapy uses your own platelets, it’s exceptionally well-tolerated.

At Koch Facial Plastic Surgery & Spa, we use PRP therapy to treat a variety of conditions, both on its own and as a complement to skincare treatments such as MicroLaserPeel^®, micro-needling, INTRAcel RF microneedling, and laser skin resurfacing. Because all of these treatments tap into the skin’s power to heal itself, PRP therapy further enhances their results.

In our Des Moines office, we also use PRP as a solitary treatment for hair loss, wrinkles, and areas of hollowness below the eyes (commonly called the “tear troughs”). The procedure itself is quite simple: We begin by drawing your blood with a fine needle, just as you’d experience in a lab. Once we’ve gathered a sufficient amount, we use a special technique to separate the platelet-rich serum from the red cells and other components of blood.

Your practitioner then injects the serum into your desired treatment area. For example, if you’re undergoing PRP therapy for hair loss, your practitioner carefully injects the serum into your scalp. When it’s used for facial rejuvenation, we administer the serum just as we would BOTOX® Cosmetic or dermal fillers.

Recovery

It’s not necessary to spend any time recuperating after PRP therapy. You can return to your regular activities immediately. Keep in mind that it takes several weeks for the results of PRP therapy to take full effect. Depending on the area of your body you’d like to treat, we may recommend a series of PRP therapy sessions, spaced several weeks apart, to give you the best results.

The results of your PRP treatment can last for a year or more, depending on the areas you have decided to treat.
