The title says it all. A common myth that many believe is that a single Botox® injection can make your eyes droop. Wrong.
When performed by an experienced medical professional who knows what they’re doing, the risk of this happening is less than 2%. And even if it does happen, which is extremely rare, the droopiness will go away within a matter of days or weeks.
Pricing for Botox can be presented in two ways: by the area treated, or by the number of units injected.
Some physicians and medical professionals choose to charge their patients for the area that is targeted. Whether it is for hyperhydrosis, the furrows between the eyes, or another problem, the exact price you’ll pay is generally revealed during the pre-treatment consultation.
Price is more commonly determined by the number of units injected. While a single vial of Botox Cosmetic holds 100 units, far fewer units are injected. For cosmetic problems, roughly 12-15 units may be injected. In Toronto, a unit of Botox Cosmetic typically ranges from $11-$12 therefore you should expect to pay anywhere from $122 – $180 or more.
