I'm hoping to find out from some Real Self doctors how many units you estimate I need for these areas. I've had mixed results, esp around my eyes, and I'm wondering if the doctor needed to use more units. I'm also wondering if there are any treatments that you think would be particularly effective for me. I'm attaching pictures, and please excuse my ridiculous expressions. I tried to show where and how my skin moves. Other treatments?

Answer: Quantity of Botox needed for excellent results? The quantity and the placement of Botox units depends on in-person exam and it is not as simple as specific units in specific locations. The size of the muscle and the depth of injections are also important for optiomal results.Please make sure that you see an experienced doctor for a thorough consultation and assessment prior to undergoing any treatments.Best regards and I hope this helps, Dr. Sapijaszko (Fellow, American Academy of Cosmetic Surgery)

Answer: Botox units As each person is unique, you may want to begin with finding out how many units you have used in the past around the eyes and increasing it a bit. The forehead also varies. You do not want to be too aggressive with the forehead in order to avoid the "frozen" look or drop the brow. I would begin more conservatively in that area, and then touch up as needed in order to reach the desired look. An estimate would be around 40-50 units to treat the forehead, between the brows and around the eyes.
