Two of my dermatologists say that steam bath and sauna can damage the effect of botox, while the 3rd derma said that there's no truth to that. Kindly enlighten me. thanks - Hearty
There are some standard post care instructions after Botox injections. They include no heavy excersice for 24 hours, mostly becuase you do not want to have a flushed face. By dialating those vessels you can potentially flush the product away from the muscles in your face and into other areas of your body. That is the only reason you may want to avoid a sauna/ steam bath the day of your injections.
For the glabellar lines, what is the recommended units of Botox (distribution of 20 units) needed to relax the corrugator and depressor supercilli complex and the procerus? Thanks for your time and support.
Not all patients are created equal. Some patients have stronger muscles than others. Some patients have muscles that act differently. This is why if you look at your friends, each of them develops lines differently than the other. For this reason, each patient may require more or less than 20 units of botox per treatment. Having said this, the average is about 20 units.
I am going to get my first Botox injection for frown lines, forehead lines, and crow's feet. I don't want to get ripped off. Can a doctor please tell me - What is the best price for Botox?
Botox can be bought by essentially any person with a DEA certificate. Allergan sells it in 50 and 100 unit vials. They are shipped overnight delivery on dry ice to keep the toxin effective it should be opened, reconstituted and used the same day ideally. The Botox will work best this way. Price points will change by who the injector is and what their motives are. Botox can be reconstituted so that you getting a very dilute amount of product. So a by the area approach may really only give you a small amount of product. Or you could be getting old Botox that is a week old and will not last for very long.
So better questions are not how it is priced but rather, When was the Botox reconstituted? How many units will I be getting in the areas of concern? The other doctors answers are reasonable about the dollar values per unit. $10-20/unit depending on the part of the country you live in.
Best advice: ask the questions above and know who is injecting you.
