Botox® Pricing Guide for Popular Treatment Areas

Botox® pricing can be a bit tricky to understand, since different offices charge in different ways. Some by unit, some by area. But honestly, it doesn’t make much of a difference. Take the frown line for example, it’s one area and usually takes 20 units of Botox® to treat. So you could say it’s $300 for that area, or $15 per unit ($15 x 20 units = $300). It’s pretty much the same thing.

Doctors buy Botox® from the makers, Allergan, in bottles with 100 units. It comes as a powder and has to be mixed with saline before injecting. Whether an office charges by unit or area, the cost of Botox® is only slightly based on how much is used.

The best way to figure out pricing is to see some common Botox® treatment scenarios and the approximate cost for each. Like for treating the Elevens, crow’s feet, forehead, and frown. These examples are pretty standard, but nothing beats an in-person evaluation where the provider can give you an accurate price.
