The cost of Botox is determined by the number of units used; however, the average cost of a cosmetic Botox treatment usually ranges between $250 and $500. The cost of Botox per unit usually works out to about $10 to $15, so treatment for forehead wrinkles, for example, may range between $200 to $300 and are usually paired with the treatment of other fine lines and wrinkles of the face, which will increase the cost of the treatment. If you have any questions about the potential cost of Botox treatment, call your practitioner to inquire about their rates.

There are several factors that will inform the number of units of Botox used in your treatment. Some of these factors include the size and strength of your muscles and which muscles are being treated with Botox. For different areas of the face, your physician will recommend a range based on which area you are having treated.

For those vertical area lines on your forehead – known as the glabella region – the usually recommended amount is 20 to 35 units of Botox, while the frontalis muscle – those horizontal forehead lines – will require between 6 to 20 units. As for crow’s feet, the usual recommended amounts vary between 6 to 15 units, depending on a variety of factors that your physician will take into account when making a decision.

If you are interested in anti-aging treatment with Botox, it is important that you speak with your physician and have a consultation, to help determine what your goals are and how many units of Botox will be appropriate for your treatment. It is important that you keep open communication with your physician throughout the process, so that they may take all factors into consideration when making a decision about your Botox treatment.

Many people begin treating their fine lines and wrinkles in their thirties, although there is a new trend emerging of what is known as preventative Botox. Preventative Botox works by making use of earlier injections of Botox, they can prevent the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles before they happen – as these are all caused by repetitive folding of the skin. One of the most difficult to treat areas is around the mouth, where marionette lines can form which prove to be very hard to treat, but preventative Botox can help prevent these lines from forming.

Preventative Botox treatment typically begins once a patient is thirty but can begin in the mid-twenties if the patient notices and is bothered by the appearance of fine lines and early wrinkles. While preventative Botox can be started at around the age of twenty-five, any treatment earlier than that is discouraged as the odds of having built-up fine lines or wrinkles by then are fairly low.
