Units are a standardized measure used by your provider to plan a safe and balanced result for your cosmetic injectable treatment. Understanding units helps tailor your treatment to achieve a natural, refreshed look.

• Units are individualized: Your provider tailors the dose to your unique needs, muscle strength, and desired aesthetic.
• "Per side" matters: Some areas are treated on both sides of the face, so the total units may be split across multiple injection points.
• Consultation first: Your injector confirms the best plan for symmetry, safety, and natural-looking results during your visit.

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 ranges are educational estimates. Your licensed provider will confirm the exact units and placement during your personalized consultation to ensure the best outcome for you.

A wrinkle-reducing cosmetic injectable works by temporarily relaxing targeted facial muscles, which helps to soften the appearance of dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated expressions. The goal is to create a subtle refinement that enhances your natural features while preserving authentic expression. Initial results are typically visible within three to five days, with the full effects settling in by about two weeks. Results generally last three to four months, though individual experiences may vary.

Avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications for at least 24 hours before your appointment, if medically appropriate. Come to your consultation with a clean face, free of makeup. Discuss any questions or concerns you have with your licensed provider.
