How Much Saline Do You Put into the Botox Bottle
so that if you use a insulin syringe, the recnstiuted Botox is correctly reflected by one unit on the insulin syringe.
A: Proper preparation of Botox for injection
Allergan recommends mixing 2.5 cc of saline per 100 units of Botox.
There is a wide range of what doctors use--anywhere from 1 to 4 cc per 100 units. I think what is more important in achieving the results you desire is
- Skill of injector--who is injecting you?
- Make sure using real Botox
- Make sure it isn't watered down
- Make sure fresh Botox
Good luck!

Preventing Eye Ptosis from Botox?
I keep hearing more and more cases of eyelid ptosis or "droopy" or closed eye from Botox. Is there a way to decrease the chances of this happening? Does it happen as often with Dysport as well?
A: Eyelid ptosis (drooping) is avoidable after Botox injections
How to avoid a droopy eyelid after Botox injections:
- Go to a qualified experienced injector--incidence should be less than 1%
- It turns out many people who end up with ptosis already have sub clinical ptosis. When the frontalis muscle is injected over aggressively to treat the horizontal forehead furrows, the ptosis can be unmasked. This is because the forehead muscle is compensating for the weakened eyelid muscle. Removing this compensatory muscle causes the eyelid to droop.
- Injecting too close to the eyelid muscle when treating the glabella, or the 11 lines.
