I am in my early thirties and I do not get regular botox. I don't have any lines around my eyes at all unless I smile. The first time I got botox was 2 years ago and the doctor only gave me 5 units per side and it looked fine. When I went in 2 weeks ago, he gave me 10 units per side. Is that too much for someone my age? It's only been 2 years, and honestly I don't think I have aged that much.
Answer: Botox for crow's feet Hello, 10-12 units of Botox per side represent a typical treatment for crowsfeet. I think the best time to start treating areas is before permanent creases form in the skin. In cases of poor outcomes after Botox, it is typically the result of placing the medicine into the wrong muscle groups rather then using too many units. Hope this helps.

Answer: Botox for the Crow's Feet Thanks for the question. Botox is an excellent option for treatment of the crow’s feet. Allergan, the maker of Botox, typically recommends 12 units per side, but many physicians and nurses inject between 7-13 units per side depending on the individual patient. Botox is a very customizable treatment, and the appropriate dose should be determined by a qualified provider during a consultation.

Answer: That's the average Do you like your results? If you do, then 10 units was probably not too much. In fact, 10 units is a typical quantity administered for this concern. Enjoy your results!

Answer: Botox and crows feet
The average number of units for crows feet is 25-30 units. If 5 units work for you then this is all you need. The higher dose will usually last longer, but you should use the minimal amount necessary to get the look you want.

Answer: Botox for crow's feet - how much
For crow's feet, I use anywhere from 6 to 16 units per side, with an average dose of 9-12 units per side. Six units per side is reserved for people that barely have any crow's feet, even when smiling broadly. Sixteen units per side is for people that have crows feet that go up to the temples and down the cheeks. Nine to twelve units per side works well for most people, who are in between.
Remember, also, that higher dosages typically last longer than lower dosages.

Answer: Botox dose for eyes
All good feedback from panel members. 10 units per eye area is a very standard dose for most. Although you are still quite young, the "recipe" is determined by muscle action at the time of the treatment regardless of age. Much may change in the two years since you had your first dose at 5 units each side. If you tend to animate mostly around the eyes, then 10 units is not unreasonable.
Your final decision on your treatment plan should be determined by the end result and duration.
