If there are 1000 units of Botox in a vial, how much solution should be added?
Answer: Botox Dilution The recommend dilution is 2.5cc into 1 standard vial of Botox. Many physicians vary this dilutions based on their personal preferences. The important thing as a patient and as a consumer is to know how many UNITs your are getting. That is the real measure of Botox and that is essentially what you are paying for.

CONTACT NOW Answer: Dilutions vary by physician There are only 100 units of Botulinum toxin in Botox Cosmetic. Physicians often dilute with saline from 1 to 2.5 ccs per bottle. Some do more. The importance is the actual number of units of Botox given and the volume then Is different depending on the dilution.

Answer: Botox Dilution Hi Ritamarie, If you have a vial with 1000 units, it is "bogus botox" and I would not risk injecting it into any living thing. FDA approved Botox Cosmetic by Allergan comes in 100 unit vials. It can be diluted with anything from 1 to 10 cc of saline. It is not the dilution, but the mumber of units of Botox that are delivered to the muscle that determines the effect. Make sure that you are receiving FDA approved Botox only. Good luck and be well.
