Introduction
Botox is well renowned in the market for its ability to minimise facial wrinkles while rejuvenating the appearance of the skin through targeted injections of troublesome lines and creases. The treatment area for Botox extends beyond the face because the medication can cure some medical conditions. The following articles will discuss the primary injection sites for Botox therapy together with required dosage levels per zone and its associated advantages.
Forehead lines
If you want to smooth out the wrinkles and fine lines on your forehead, Botox treatment is the answer to your problem. The treatment also works well both as a preventive measure for stopping deep horizontal furrows from developing and as a treatment for existing ones.
- Recommended units: 10 to 20 units.
Frown lines/glabellar lines
You can see frown lines, sometimes called glabellar lines or 11 lines, between your eyebrows. Botox can be used to cure those lines because it is designed to significantly reduce deep wrinkles as a result of continual facial creases.

Crow’s Feet
The lines you can see on the outside of your eyes are called lateral canthal lines, or crow’s feet in simple terms. It shows up when you grin or close your eyes in a usual manner. Using Botox in these areas might help minimise the lines achieving a smoother and younger-looking appearance.
- Recommended units: 10 to 30 units per eye side area.
Eyebrow lift
By injecting botulinum toxin around your brows, Botox can help raise them. Lifted brows and smooth skin surrounding them are the results of treatment paralysing and relaxing effects on the muscles.

Bunny lines or nose wrinkles are horizontal lines that show up on the sides of your nose. When you laugh or grin, it may be more noticeable. Botox can give the appearance of smoothness by softening the muscles.

The vertical muscles on our necks grow increasingly noticeable as we age. The reason for this is that the skin begins to sag and wrinkle. Botox can assist in softening and smoothening the neck area. So if you want to lessen its appearance, get the treatment now.
