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?

A: Cost of Botox?

Peter A. Aldea, MD

ASSUMING the doctor / injector / chiropractor / salon orders a 100 unit Botox Cosmetic vial from ALLERGAN (and not from a gray market source), they will pay the same for each Botox vial (with discounts figured in based on total quarterly Botox purchases) - the current price is just over 500 dollars... more

The cost of Botox in Los Angeles varies by practice according to several factors including: Who's doing the injections?

William J. Hedden, MD

Average cost of Botox does vary with different physicians. We are happy to provide Botox at a lower cost per unit as more of a perk for our patients that end up doing mulitple proceedures with us. Average cost for our Botox is $250.00 per site.

Alan M. Gardner, MD

I charge $300 per site, we do offer a special once every 4 months for $235 per site. After 2 weeks, if the patient is not satisfied, we can do a unit adjustment for $50. This happens once in awhile, and is not a big deal. Once we know that you needed a little more in that area, the next time you come in we go... more

I realize that every patient needs a different dose of Botox, but I still charge by the area treated.  It starts around $450.   If  a patient does not get a full effect, they receive a free treatment at 10 days.  My reason for this is that I think patients relate better to paying for... more

Cost depends on where you live and who is injecting the product. I always tell my patients that the "WHO" does matter, or, it is not always the injectable that gives you the great results, but rather the INJECTOR, (who is injecting the product)! I see that physician injectors may cost more than... more

A: Cost of Botox injections

Joel B. Singer, MD

I charge by the number of units used because I have found that this makes the most sense to my patients. I dilute the Botox with 4cc of sterile saline solution so that each 0.1cc is equal to 2.5 units. I use 1 cc syringes so that the syringe will hold 25 units. The reason for charging by the unit rather... more

A: Botox cost $13 to $17 per unit

Jack Gelman, MD

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... more

Hisham Seify, MD, PhD

In the US, the average overhead on a unit of Botox( price of the vial and the cost to inject it) is $ 8-10. The average price for injection varies from 10-15 per unit depending on the area. Some practices go by syringes but it is easier and more transparent to go by units i think. One... more

A: How much does Botox cost?

Michael Kulick, MD

 The cost of BoTox is usually dependent on how much BoTox you receive, within a safe dose range.  When you see a "low" cost it usually means that you will be receiving less BoTox than another, higher quote.  The medication is diluted so how far a bottle goes depends on the dilution.... more
