I had 14 to 15 units of Botox tonight in my forehead and frown line - about 2 to 3 hours later I gave my face a rub without realising - should I be ok? And how much should 14 units cost?

Answer: Rubbing face after Botox I tell my patients not to rub over their eyes right after Botox as this can theoretically spread the Botox and cause a lid droop. However, a massage of upper forehead should not matter nor should touching of the face or a couple of little rubs. No use worrying, just try to not rub over your eyes from now on. You will probably be just fine

Answer: Cost of botox and effect of rubbing Hi, thank you for your question.I agree, a single rub to the forehead shouldn't change the result. The concern for rubbing is that the product is displaced inferiorly toward the lid elevator muscle. This can potentially result in a temporary lid drop. Avoid future facial massage or aggressive rubbing for approximately 24 hours after treatment.As for cost: In the USA - $8.00 to $12.00 per unit.- Dr. Bryson Richards

Answer: Rubbed face after Botox As long as the rub wasn't aggressive or long, I think you will be just fine. We don't recommend massages or aggressive rubbing after Botox for about 24 hours, but just an off-hand accidental touch won't affect it. Cost depends on where you are located and who performed the injections. Prices will range but usually fall somewhere between $8 per unit (on the low-end or injected by non-physicians) up to $15 per unit (on the high-end and injected by core physicians).
