Botox per unit or per area: which is the honest way to pay?
Two clinics quote the same price for your forehead. One injects 20 units, the other 12. Only one of those prices was honest.
Boca has more med spas than coffee shops. Most of them look identical online. These questions separate them in five minutes.
Who exactly will inject me? Not the clinic, the person. Ask for their licence type, how long they have been injecting, and how many injectable treatments they do in a month. A confident answer is a good sign. A vague one is the answer.
Do you charge per unit or per area, and what product? Per unit, with the product named, is the transparent answer. Per area with no unit count is a price you cannot compare.
What happens if something goes wrong? For filler specifically: do they keep hyaluronidase on site, and is there a clinician you can reach after hours. If the answer to either is no, walk.
Can I see results on someone like me? Ask for before-and-after photographs of that injector's own work, in the treatment you want, on a face roughly your age. Generic galleries prove nothing.
Is the consultation free, and is there pressure to book? A good consultation ends with a plan you can take home. Some of the best ones end with being told you do not need the thing you came in for.
What is included after treatment? A two-week review after neurotoxin should be standard, not a paid extra. Aftercare should be written down.
Are the reviews real and recent? Read the three-star ones. They tell you more than the five-star ones. Check the date of the most recent review; a clinic with nothing new in a year has either stopped asking or stopped delivering.

The honest answer is a range, and the range depends on your muscle, your goal and whether your frown lines are treated at the same time.
