How many units of Botox do people usually get? The pricing is confusing.

Asked By:veramichelle227 in Massachusetts, MA

I see some places it says Botox is 11$ or some really low price and that seems CRAZY.. how is Botox measured? I've heard it referred to as units but how how many does the average person get? I'm 18 so I wouldn't need it for wrinkles but it could be used for sculpting?
