WHAT TO EXPECT
Frown lines and crow's feet in the US: about 44 units, roughly $530 to $620 a visit.
Clinics in the US publish $12 to $14 a unit for the middle half of menus, median $13, from 521 clinic menus listed on AuraVenu (October 2026).
Results last about three to four months, so three to four visits a year comes to $1,590 to $2,480.
First-visit offers in United States start around $10 to $10.25 a unit (72 menus); they usually apply once.
Labelled doses are the FDA-studied Botox Cosmetic doses, not a prescription. Your injector decides the units after watching how your face moves.

AT THE CONSULTATION, ASK
- How many units are in this quote, and of which product?
- Is the price per unit or per area, and what does an area include?
- Who will inject, and what is their licence and experience?
- Is a two-week follow-up included if an area needs a touch-up?
- What happens if I need fewer units than planned?
Units by area
The FDA label for Botox Cosmetic gives studied doses for three areas of the upper face. The other areas are treated off-label, and the figures for them are the ranges injectors commonly quote. None of these is a prescription: your injector should explain the areas, planned units and total price before treatment.
| Area | Units | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Frown linesbetween the brows (glabellar lines) | 20 units | FDA label: 20 units across five sites |
| Crow's feetlines at the outer corners of the eyes (lateral canthal lines) | 24 units | FDA label: 24 units, 12 per side across three sites each |
| Forehead lineshorizontal lines, labelled for treatment together with frown lines | 20 units | FDA label: 20 units across five sites, given with the 20-unit frown-line treatment (40 units in total) |
| All three upper-face areas | 64 units | Frown lines 20, crow's feet 24, forehead 20 |
| Brow lifta few units at the tail of the brow | 4 to 10 units | Typical range, off-label |
| Bunny lineslines on the sides of the nose | 5 to 10 units | Typical range, off-label |
| Lip flipthe upper lip border | 4 to 10 units | Typical range, off-label |
| Chindimpling or an orange-peel texture (mentalis) | 4 to 10 units | Typical range, off-label |
| Masseterjaw slimming or clenching, both sides | 40 to 60 units | Typical range, off-label |
| Neck bandsvertical platysmal bands | 30 to 60 units | Typical range, off-label |
Off-label means the FDA has not labelled Botox for that area, which is common practice rather than a warning. The dose there varies more with the muscle and the result you want, so treat the range as a starting point for the conversation. The Botox guide, medically reviewed, covers each area in words.

Other neuromodulators
Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau, Daxxify and Letybo are measured in their own units, so these per-unit figures do not compare with Botox or with each other. National medians from clinics listed on AuraVenu that publish a per-unit price, October 2026.
- Xeomin
- $12
- 169 websites
- Jeuveau
- $12
- 123 websites
- Daxxify
- $11
- 109 websites
- Letybo
- $11
- 37 websites
Dysport is priced two ways. Clinics that price per Dysport unit charge a median of $5 (201 websites); clinics that price per Botox-equivalent unit charge a median of $13 (148 websites). The treatment can cost about the same either way, so compare the total, not the unit.
Questions people ask
How is Botox priced: per unit or per area?
Both. Most menus listed on AuraVenu quote a price per unit, and the number of units decides the bill: at the national median of $13 a unit, the labelled 20-unit frown-line dose is about $260. Some clinics quote a flat price per area with a set number of units included. Among clinics that publish per-area prices, the medians are Lip flip $125, Forehead lines $255, Crow's feet $252, Frown lines (glabella) $276.25, Masseter (jaw) $540, Bunny lines $95, Neck bands $468.75, Chin $98, Brow lift $99 (October 2026). A per-area price is only comparable once you know how many units it includes.
Why does the price per unit differ by city?
Rent, wages and local competition move it. In October 2026, the metro medians on this page run from $12.25 to $15.50 a unit, with Los Angeles the largest sample (74 clinic websites). Within a city the spread between clinics is usually wider than the gap between cities, so the middle-half band matters more than the median.
How often do people have Botox again?
For frown lines, the FDA label for Botox describes the effect as lasting approximately three to four months. Treatment more often than every three months has not been evaluated. Clinics listed on AuraVenu commonly describe results lasting about three to four months, and your injector will advise on timing.
Do Dysport, Xeomin, Jeuveau or Daxxify cost the same per unit as Botox?
Their units are not Botox units, so a per-unit price is not a like-for-like comparison and this page does not convert between brands. Among clinics listed on AuraVenu that publish a per-unit price (October 2026): Xeomin $12 (169 websites), Jeuveau $12 (123 websites), Daxxify $11 (109 websites), Letybo $11 (37 websites). Dysport is priced two ways: per Dysport unit, median $5 across 201 websites, or per Botox-equivalent unit, median $13 across 148. Ask for the total price of the treatment, not the unit price.
How many units of Botox does the forehead take?
The FDA label studies 20 units across five forehead sites, given together with the 20-unit frown-line treatment, so forehead lines are labelled as a 40-unit combination rather than a stand-alone area. Injectors often use fewer units in the forehead for a softer result; the dose is theirs to decide after watching how your brow moves.
Where do these prices come from?
From the menus and price pages clinics publish on their own websites, read for the clinics listed on AuraVenu (4,107 US clinics crawled, October 2026). Only a clinic's regular, cosmetic, own-menu price counts: member, new-patient, promotional and volume prices, medical uses and quoted "typical" market prices are excluded, and a chain's locations count once. A city gets its own line at 10 or more clinic websites, a state at 20; otherwise the page says which broader figure it used. No clinic is shown with its price.
How it is counted
The prices are read from the menus and price pages that clinics publish on their own websites, for the 4,107 US clinics listed on AuraVenu with a website that could be read. 1,235 of them publish a neuromodulator price of some kind; 521 websites publish a regular per-unit Botox price, which is what the tables use.
Excluded from every median: from/starting-at prices; member prices; first-visit and new-patient prices; promotional prices; volume-tier prices; medical uses (hyperhidrosis, migraine, TMJ); quoted typical or market prices. Per-area prices are kept as per-area and never divided into a per-unit figure. A chain's locations count once. Brands are never converted into one another.
A metro gets its own line at 10 or more clinic websites, a state at 20. Below that the estimator uses the state or national figure and says so. The figures are from October 2026 and stay fixed until the next dated update; this file was generated on October 25, 2026.
Unit doses for frown lines, crow's feet and forehead lines are the FDA-labelled Botox Cosmetic doses as described in the Botox guide, medically reviewed by Evan Kurzyp, RN. The off-label areas carry the ranges injectors commonly quote. The cost arithmetic (units multiplied by the published price band) is not clinical advice. The number of units you need is for your injector to decide.
