I have been researching Botox for my frown lines, and decided to go in for an appointment this week. Based on my research, I believe that around 20 units was standard for vertical frown lines, and I wanted to start very conservative. I am only in my mid 20's and have very faint wrinkles forming. The doctor recommended that I start with 30-32 units of Botox because I have strong muscles. This seemed very high to me. Is this a reasonable amount, or was he trying to upsell me?
