How Many Botox Units for 11's or Frown Lines?

I can understand your frustration. However, you state that you just had the Botox yesterday. It will take 3 to 7 stays for it to start working and sometimes up to 2 weeks for the final effect. So, please be patient to see the effect.
However, it does usually take between 20 to 30 units for the glabella (your "11's") area. It takes another 15 to 25 units for your forehead and another 2.5 to 5 units for around each eye (crow's feet).
I hope this is helpful.

Botox is agreat treatment for frown lines or the 11 (area between your eyes). A couple statements about your Botoxtreatment for you lines, one Botox can take up to two weeks to see the fullresult of the treatment. Second theamount of Botox needed will vary from person to person depending on thestrength of their muscles and the overall goal they are trying to achieve.

Botox relaxesthe muscles that cause us to make wrinkles around our eyes and forehead. With time the muscles will stop forming theselines. I tell patients that even thoughthey will see the results of their Botox at two weeks they will continue toimprove over the next couple months. Asthe skin has time to relax the lines will continue to fade with time. That is why patients will typically lookbetter for an extended amount of time as their Botox slowly wears off slowlyafter three to four months. Occasionallypatients can see results for a longer period of time but that can vary frompatient to patient.

If patientshave never had Botox before I typically like to start them off with a smallamount. You can always add more if patients need it. If you over inject them they really do not receiveany benefit other than over paying. Patients can need anywhere from 15 to 30 units in the glabellar (11lines) area to smooth out their wrinkles.

Please discussyour Botox treatment with your board certified plastic surgeon.

Typically 20 units of Botox will be sufficient to treat the 11"s or the forehead lines, but not both.   It also depends on the size of the patients forehead, and the strength of the muscles.  It is much easier to smooth the forehead than it is to eliminate the 11's.  It will take 7 top 10 days to see the full effect.

The typical dosage for treating moderate to severe "11" lines or frown lines with Botox can range between 15 to 25 units, depending on the individual's muscle mass and the severity of the lines. While 20 units could be effective for some people, others with more pronounced frown lines might require more to achieve optimal results. It's important to discuss your concerns and expectations with your provider to tailor the treatment to your specific needs. If the initial treatment doesn't provide the desired results, a follow-up appointment can help adjust the dosage.

Hi there,Firstly, the severity of the area needs to be considered…How deep are the lines before treatment, your age, your lifestyle factors, muscle strength, desired outcome, type of Botox used, etc. Usually for the 11’s (procerus and corrugator muscles) an average of 15-20 units is a standard amount. The final results of your Botox may take up to 2-4 weeks. Again, the number of units to be injected has to be determined by an experienced physician/ advanced injector. At our clinic we do invite our clients in for a two week follow up to assess the results and determine if any adjustments are necessary at no additional charge. If for some reason you are unsatisfactory with your results, you need to contact your injector to discuss this with them.

The standard number of units to treat this area is 20, though this varies by individual needs. I encourage you to be patient as Botox effects typically begin to be seen after 4-7 days with final results after 14 days. The effects will gradually fade over the next 3 to 4 months.
