Wrinkle-reducing cosmetic injectables are measured in 'units'—a standardized dose used by providers to plan a safe, balanced result tailored to your features.

• Units are individualized: Your provider tailors the dose to your unique needs and desired look for subtle enhancement.
• 'Per side' matters: Some areas, like crow's feet or jawline, are treated on both sides of the face; totals are split accordingly.
• Consultation first: A licensed injector confirms the best plan for optimal symmetry, safety, and natural-looking results.

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 precise treatment plan, including areas and units, will be confirmed during your personalized consultation with a licensed provider.

Wrinkle-reducing cosmetic injectable treatments involve injecting small amounts of the product with a fine needle to temporarily relax specific facial muscles. This process is designed to soften the appearance of expression lines while preserving your natural facial movements. Results typically begin to appear within a few days, with full effects developing over about two weeks. Individual results can vary, and your provider will discuss what to expect during your consultation.

To prepare for your appointment, it's generally recommended to avoid alcohol and blood-thinning medications or supplements for 24-48 hours before treatment, if medically appropriate for you. Arrive with a clean face, free of makeup, and be ready to discuss your aesthetic goals during your consultation. Your provider will offer any specific instructions needed to ensure a comfortable experience.
