How Effective is Botox for Under Eye Wrinkles?
Botox for lower eyelid wrinkles
Jul 24, 2016
Jul 24, 2016
Although Botox is only approved to improve the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between the brows and crow's feet lines, it can be used to smooth lower eyelid wrinkles. I would recommend a low dose (2 units per eyelid). If the orbicularis oculi muscle is weakened with a large dose, it might cause ectropion or drooping of the lower eyelid.

Average Price for Botox in Tampa Florida

In my office, I am the plastic surgeon injector and we charge $13 per unit. To do the glabella frown lines or "11"s it may take 20 units or more, so do the math. Please check the Brilliant Distinctions Rewards Program on the Botox Cosmetic web site.
How Many Botox Units for 11's or Frown Lines?
One day is too soon to see the magic of Botox
Jul 24, 2016
Jul 24, 2016
After a Botox injection, I can see on myself the smoothing of the frown lines after 3 days, or so. So hang in there and it should kick in at 7-14 days!
