Key Takeaways
What you need to know
- Botox is priced per unit, not per area, at most clinics.
- Common areas use roughly 20–50 units total.
- Renova members and specials get Botox at $10 per unit.
- Men and stronger muscles often need more units.
Botox pricing can be confusing because clinics advertise it in different ways. Most, including ours, price by the unit, which is the most transparent approach: you pay for exactly what you need.
How many units do common areas take?
- Forehead lines: about 6–20 units
- Frown lines ("11s"): about 15–25 units
- Crow's feet: about 10–24 units (both sides)
- Lip flip: about 4–6 units
Most patients treating a few common areas use roughly 20–50 units per visit. Men and people with stronger facial muscles usually need more.
Estimating your cost
Multiply the units by the price per unit. At our $10 per unit member and special pricing:
- 20 units = $200
- 35 units = $350
- 50 units = $500

Why the cheapest price isn't always the best value
Under-dosing to hit a low price can mean results that fade quickly or look uneven. Experienced injectors place the right dose in the right spots so results last the full 3–4 months.
How often you'll need it
Most patients return every 3–4 months. Over time, some find they can go a bit longer between visits.
