Botox cost $13 to $17 per unit

Jack Gelman, MD answers: How much does Botox cost?

I am in my late 20s and looking to get my first Botox injection for frown lines, forehead lines, and crow's feet.  I don't want to get ripped off, so can someone please tell me - What is the normal cost of Botox?

Botox is usually charged by the unit.  In our area, the average cost is $13 to $17 per unit.  That being said, we are running a special of $11 per unit. Be very careful who you go to for the injection.  Price is not always the best determination.  I personally would only go to a a surgeon certified by the AMERICAN BOARD OF PLASTIC SURGERY.  You can find one in your area at plasticsurgery.org.  I would ask that the surgeon inject and not a nurse.  Again this is just my opinion, but the training I received is far different than that of many other botox "injectors."
