Answer: Botox Units are confusing Irrespective of the dilution used, most practitioners agree that botox should deliver 2.5 units per injection site. In my office, we talk about treatment points, not units. Customized botox strategies could involve full or half shots, in order to have different effects. The density of shots per area injected, as well as the underlying bulk of the muscle that is targeted ultimately determines how many units are needed in order to see a clinical effect (wrinkle reduction). I find units to be entirely useless as a point of measuring treatments. I suggest treatment points or # of shots as a better strategy for evaluating 'how much.'

Answer: Botox Dilution. Thank you for your question. The injector typically evaluates the dosage per patient. Therefore, the dosage per patient is individual. The injector will dilute the vial of Botox with saline, allowing for 0.1 ml to equal a varying number of units depending on the ratio.Best,
