How many units of Botox are injected in one session?

How many units of Botox are injected in one session, and how many different areas, i.e. forehead, lip, chin, eyes, eyebrows, etc., can be combined in one session?

Procedure: Botulinum Toxin

Many areas can be combined in one session. The # of units depends de on the severity of the wrinkles you have and how “frozen” of a look that one wants. I’ve injected as little as 10 units in one session or even over 100 units.

Please meet with a board certified plastic surgeon to do a full assessment on your face to see how many units would be appropriate for you

Everyone has a different requirement for the number of units of BOTOX needed. I have never had to inject more than 50 units for a face. I have injected 100 units for axillary hyperhidrosis

I personally use the whole 100 U Botox immediately after dilution because it's effect goes down for every hour. 100 U is enough for whole face and neck.
