Units are a standardized measure used by aesthetic providers to plan a safe and balanced cosmetic injectable treatment. Your provider carefully determines the appropriate number of units needed to achieve your desired, natural-looking results while preserving facial expression.

• Units are individualized: Your provider tailors the dose to your unique facial anatomy, muscle strength, and desired look.
• "Per side" matters: Some areas, like crow's feet, are treated on both sides of the face, so the total units may be split across two injection sites.
• Consultation first: Your injector confirms the best plan for symmetry, safety, and natural results during your personalized consultation.

Common treatment areas (typical ranges may include):

• Eyebrow lift: 2–5 units (per side)
• Forehead lines: 4–16 units
• "11s" / frown lines: 10–30 units
• Crow's feet: 8–12 units (per side)
• Nasalis lines: 6–10 units
• Upper lip (lip flip): 4–8 units
• Smile lift: 3–6 units
• Jawline: 10–30 units (per side)

These unit ranges are educational estimates. The precise number of units required for your specific goals and facial structure will be determined by your licensed provider during your consultation.

A wrinkle-reducing cosmetic injectable is designed to diminish the appearance of facial lines and wrinkles. It works by temporarily relaxing targeted facial muscles, which helps to smooth out the skin and prevent future wrinkle formation. Many individuals seek these treatments to soften the look of crow's feet, frown lines, and forehead creases. While results vary, the effects typically become noticeable within a few days and can last for several months, helping you achieve a more refreshed and relaxed appearance.

To help prepare for your appointment, it's generally recommended to avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications or supplements, such as ibuprofen, for at least 24–48 hours prior. This can help minimize the risk of bruising at the injection sites.
