Question

Jamil Asaria, MD · Answer

Most of the time, bunny lines can be treated very easily with about 2-5 units of Botox or Xeomin on each side. This treatment will usually last for about three to four months.

Hi, Thank you for your post. It usually it only takes 2-4 units to get rid of bunny lines. Make sure you see an expert injector for the best results.

Jerome Edelstein, MD · Answer

Just a few units can correct bunny lines on the nose, and they can be placed at the sides. To determine the exact amount please see an experienced injector.

Michael A. Zadeh, MD, FACS · Answer

Depending on the severity of the bunny lines, I typically start out with 2-2.5 units of Botox on each side. I then have the patient return in 2 weeks to follow up. If more is needed then I give it at that time. Rarely would more than 5 Units be needed per side.

Jonathan Kulbersh, MD · Answer

I use 2.5 units per side for a total of 5 units to treat the bunny lines for the initial treatment.  If the lines are not improved or the Botox wears off before 3 months, then the dose can be slightly increased.  

	 

	I hope this helps.

The dosing will depend on the strength and size of your muscle, but a typical dose will be 2.5-5 units per side, for a total of 5-10 units.

Benjamin Barankin, MD, FRCPC · Answer

I generally do 2-3 units per side of the nose, and sometimes 2-3 units on the top of the nose too, depends on the nature and strength of the muscles. ~ Dr. Benjamin Barankin, Toronto Dermatology Centre.

Steven Hacker, MD · Answer

This is an easy area to treat and typically responds beautifully. I typically use just a few units to the affected areas for bunny lines and see excellent results with no side effects.

	I would recommend injection only by a properly licensed board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon.

Martie Gidon, MD, FRCPC, FAAD · Answer

Typically, 2 to 3 units per side are enough to treat bunny lines but the dose is dependent on the size and strength of the muscles involved.
