How many Botox units do you estimate for my for forehead and eyes? (Photos)

To know the exact amount, you will need to see a physician injector to discuss the look you are going for, what particular areas you would like treated, and what types of results you've seen from previous injections. I generally will use 10-20 units in the forehead, 20-30 units in the glabella, and 10 units on each side of the crow's feet areas for a total of 50-60 units in most cases. Be sure to see an expert physician injector.All the best,

Thank you for your question.  First of all, I would be interested in knowing when you last were treated with Botox, to understand your baseline and dose appropriately. Your glabella (the muscles just above and between your brows responsible for frown lines) appears very smooth. Even so, if this is with no Botox active, I would suggest at least 10 units placed in that area.  Botox in the upper face is very much about balancing those muscles that lift, with those that lower. Those horizontal lines across your forehead are caused by the frontalis muscle, as it lifts upward. The right dose of Botox will render it less active, softening the lines.  Too much will drop it and feel heavy.  By also injecting a bit to the glabella it will give you some lift and support, balancing the relaxed upper forehead and creating an overall refreshed, smooth effect.  With that security in place, I would inject 12 to 14 units into your forehead, and 10-12 units per side of your eyes for crows feet.  It is always a great idea to go in for a 2 week follow-up to assess the outcome and determine your perfect dose.

The amount of Botox needed will vary and needs an in-person evaluation. I estimate you'll need 10 for the forehead and 20 for your eyes. It will take 1-2 weeks for your final results. Hope this helps.

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)

For forehead anywhere from 16 to 20 units +/- a few units and for the peri orbital are 12 to 18 units on each side +/- a few units 

Hi and thanks for your question. It would be nice to know how many units your previous doctor used around the eyes. That way we could try a bit more and see if that worked better. Absent that info, I would start with 6 to 8 units around each eye and 8 to 10 units for the forehead. What you would really benefit from, however, is filler in the cheek and undereye area. You look great, but I think that giving you stronger cheekbones and correcting that little bit of hollowing under your eyes would be a dramatic change for the better. I would probably use Voluma and Versa for results that look perfectly natural, are reversible any time and last for a really long time (tear troughs - 5 or more years, cheeks - 1 to 1.5 years). Hope that helps.

I would be conservative with the first time.  Less is more.  I would start with 14 units in the crow's feet and 8 units in the forehead.  If you notice some wrinkles still remain then you can come back for more.  If you put too much particularly in the forehead you will notice a lot stiffness in the forehead and perhaps the eyebrows will even drop.  Please consult with an experienced cosmetic surgeon for best results.

Botox 60 units for the forehead and around the eyes should do well.  If you need between the eyebrows (glabella) then maybe 15-20 more units.

Thanks for sharing your photos. In order to find out the exact dose of Botox, it is necessary to discuss your aesthetic goals with your provider in detail along with the particular skin areas you want to get treated and your previous treatment experience with Botox, if any. In general, you will need about 10-20 units for the forehead and 20 for both eyes (Crow’s feet). In a follow up visit within two weeks, your provider can perform an assessment to find out if any other areas need treatment. Be sure to consult an expert injector to find out an optimal and effective dose for your skin treatment, as both low dose and high dose of Botox can have undesirable results.I hope this helps.

Thank you for your question. The exact dosing depends on how "frozen" you would like to be and bowstring your muscles are. We often turn to average dosing. In our practice and in our area we typically lightly treat the forehead with 10 units and treat the eyes with approximately 10-12 units each side. Often patient require more than these initial dosings but rarely less. Good luck!
