Individuals who are new to Botox treatments may want to know the amount of Botox they will need to achieve their desired outcome. The quantity of Botox needed differs from individual to individual and depends on the areas of the face that require treatment. During your Botox consultation, your injector will help you determine the exact amount of Botox that you would benefit from. Texas Surgical Dermatology, led by board-certified dermatologist Dr. Tri H. Nguyen, provides Botox to patients in Houston, Katy, Spring, The Woodlands, Texas, and surrounding locations.
Botox
Botox is an FDA-approved anti-aging injectable used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and lines in the face. This procedure, which takes no more than 60 minutes, can be done during a single lunchtime visit and patients can go back to their everyday routines right away. Results from Botox are visible within just a few days.
Botox Treatment Areas
Botox is most often used to reduce the wrinkles on the forehead, between the eyebrows, and in the outer corners of the eyes. It is also used to reduce the appearance of the gums when smiling and to contour the jawline.
Average Botox Units
The quantity of Botox you require to achieve the best results will depend on the areas you want to treat, and the strength of your facial muscles. You can treat multiple areas at the same time during the same treatment session. The average units of Botox used by patients typically range from:
Forehead: 10-30 units
Between the Eyebrows: 10-25 units
Outer Corners of Eyes: 10-30 units (5 to 15 per eye)
Gums: 4-5 units (2-2.5 per side of mouth)
Jaw: 50-60 units (25-30 per side of jaw)
