I had a consultation with a doctor for Botox injections. Between the brows. I think I mostly have a "1" not an "11". See photos. She recommends 50 units! Isn't this way too much? I did purchase a groupon. I'm thinking maybe she just wants more money. Please advise. Thank you.

Answer: Botox dosing Is it Botox or Dysport that your injector is using? They are different and require different units to achieve result. Using a groupon for a neurotoxin is not a good idea. I would consult with a board certified PS/derm.

Answer: 50 units Thank you for your question and photographs. 50 units of Botox cosmetic to treat only the glabella for the "11s" you are concerned with does seem to be quite a large dose. Be careful to select an injector who is experienced and certified to perform any injectable procedure. Best of luck.

Answer: Frown lines and Botox Using Botox for treating the "11s" or the "1" as you describe, should be adequately treated with 20 U of botox. 50 U seems excessive. However, if you are treating any other areas, you may utilize a full 50 units. In general, groupon is not a great way to seek medical treatments...
