28 yo F. Recieved 50 units of botox 8 months ago. I felt rather frozen after treatment. I am wondering what other providers would sughes would be an optimal range to recieve. I have never used dysport, but would be open to considering. Thank you all for your input.

Answer: How many Botox units should I expect to recieve? 28 y/o female? Hi Sam, I would likely treat a young woman like you with anywhere from 24 to 32 units of Botox. Your frozen feeling was probably due to the relatively high dose that you received. Be sure to choose your injecting physician most carefully. Good luck and be well. Michael Persky, MD Encino, CA

Answer: Depends on which areas Hi! It depends on which areas you want injected and whether you want a more natural look vs more frozen. My guess is you're hoping for more natural based off of what you said. If I were just treating the horizontal forehead lines, I would do something like 6u, for central glabella something like 9u, and I can't tell if in the last pic you're trying to show crow's feet but you're very light so maybe only 4-6u per side for eyes. I tell my new patients that I can always add more tox to you if you want more, but once there's too much put in, we can't do anything except wait, so I always err on lower dose and then add.
