Understanding Brotox Pricing
The cost of Botox for men depends on several factors. This guide breaks down pricing so you can budget appropriately and avoid surprises.
Pricing Models
Providers typically charge in one of two ways:
Per Unit Pricing
Most common approach. You pay for each unit of Botox used.
- Average: $10-25 per unit
- Benefit: You pay only for what you need
- Consideration: Men typically need more units than women
Per Area Pricing
Some providers charge a flat fee per treatment area.
- Average: $200-600 per area
- Benefit: Predictable cost
- Consideration: May be more expensive if you need fewer units
Average Costs by Treatment Area
| Treatment Area | Units Needed (Men) | Cost Range |
|---|---|---|
| Forehead lines | 15-30 units | $150-600 |
| Frown lines (11s) | 20-40 units | $200-800 |
| Crow's feet | 20-30 units (both sides) | $200-600 |
| Full face | 50-80+ units | $500-1,600+ |
Regional Price Differences
Location significantly impacts pricing:
Major Metropolitan Areas
- New York City: $15-25 per unit
- Los Angeles: $14-22 per unit
- Miami: $12-20 per unit
- Chicago: $12-18 per unit
Smaller Cities

Why Location Matters

Hidden Costs to Consider
Consultation Fees
Some providers charge $50-150 for initial consultations. Many apply this toward treatment if you proceed.
Touch-Up Appointments
If results aren't perfectly even, you may need a follow-up. Ask if this is included.
Maintenance
Botox isn't permanent. Budget for treatments every 3-4 months.
Annual Cost Estimate
For maintaining typical treatment areas:
- Conservative (forehead only): $600-1,200/year
- Standard (forehead + frown lines): $1,200-2,400/year
- Comprehensive (multiple areas): $2,000-4,000+/year
Ways to Save on Brotox

Off-Peak Appointments

What NOT to Compromise On
Never choose a provider based on price alone. The cheapest option may:
- Use diluted product
- Have inexperienced injectors
- Lack proper medical oversight
Poor results can cost more to fix than doing it right the first time.
Questions to Ask About Pricing
Before booking, clarify:
- Do you charge per unit or per area?
- How many units do you estimate I'll need?
- Is there a consultation fee?
- What's included if I need a touch-up?
- Do you offer any loyalty programs or packages?
Is It Worth the Investment?
Consider what Brotox offers:
- Professional impact: Looking refreshed in meetings and presentations
- Personal confidence: Feeling good about your appearance
- Time efficiency: 15-minute treatments, no downtime
- Preventive value: Stopping deep wrinkles before they form
For many men, the career and personal benefits far outweigh the cost.
The Bottom Line
Expect to invest $500-1,500 for your first treatment session, with ongoing maintenance of $1,500-3,000+ annually depending on your treatment areas.
Choose quality over savings. A skilled provider delivers natural results that maintain your masculine appearance — and that's worth every dollar.
