Many patients ask us this question and it really depends on the patient and their aesthetic goals.
Most patients just would like to soften their expression, especially if they are heavy “frowners”. For most patients, 25 units of Botox will relax this frown lines (vertical lines between the brows). Others have deep crows feet ( lines around the corners of the mouth) with expression and depending on the patient anywhere from 10 to 20 units can be used here. Finally forehead lines respond well to Botox and this typically requires 10-15 units. Brow lifting can be achieved with a combination of these and a few units in the lateral eyebrow.
Botox is an art and patient doctor discussion is critical. Dr. Hamilton individualizes each treatment and stresses follow up to achieve the best results.
We have a very high return rate because of our emphasis on comfortable treatments with minimal bruising and great results.
