From answers to other questions, I understand that females are usually given 20 units for the glabella. I am confused as to exactly how much 20 units is. When I have had Botox in the past, they usually take the Botox from a vial which appears to hold approximately 2 tablespoons of fluid and resembles the vials in which contact lenses once were packaged. Is this a 20 unit vial? If I pay for 20 units of Botox, should I expect to get the full contents of that vial?

Answer: 20 units of Botox is the approved dose for frown line Botox cosmetic is approved for the treatment of frown lines and 20 units is the recommended dose. Doctors may use more or less based on the individual. With the standard dilution ( though many doctors use other dilution ) 20 units is 1/2 cc. The syringes are usually 1cc, so it would be half a syringe.
