Botox Unit Vs Botox CC Cost Comparison

Most injectors charge per unit. This can range from $10-$15 in Toronto, ON. I am unsure how much 1 cc would be since a Botox unit can be diluted at a varying amount. 

Most botox providers dilute the botox with 2 cc's of normal saline. So 1 cc should contain 50 units more or less (there are 100 units in a vial). The best way is to go with units. This way you can compare apples to apples.

Thank you for your question.

Yes, it can be confusing because some places charge per unit, some per area, etc..  The Botox is diluted and you need to make sure you are not going somewhere where they dilute things too much (and therefore may not get the results you are wanting). In my practice, the cost is usually around $12 per unit.  I personally inject every patient myself - I do not have a nurse or PA do the injecting.

I hope this helps.
