HOW MUCH DOES BOTOX COST?
Botox is $11 per unit, if you need 25 units to treat forehead creases, the cost would be $275. If you need 20 units, it would be $220 and so on. Also when considering cost, keep in mind that if you receive regular Botox treatments, you eventually will need 3-4 treatments per year to keep up your refreshed appearance. Some patients require less Botox as time goes on and thereby the costs are slightly less from year to year. #Botox Bluffton #Botox Hilton Head

DOES BOTOX INJECTION HURT?
Our patients say the treatment feels no worse than an noseeum bite. While we typically do not administer anesthesia for Botox treatment, a numbing cream can be applied to the area in certain cases. We usually apply an icepack to the injection site immediately before and after the injection.
