Understanding Botox Unit Pricing: What $10.50 Per Unit Really Means
If you’ve been exploring Botox treatments in Asheville, you’ve likely noticed that pricing is typically listed “per unit.” At West Asheville Aesthetics & Wellness, we offer Botox at $10.50 per unit—but what does that actually mean for your treatment and wallet? We believe in complete transparency, which is why we’re breaking down exactly what you’re paying for when you invest in Botox with us.
Understanding unit pricing helps you make informed decisions about your aesthetic treatments without any surprises. Let’s demystify Botox pricing together and show you why our pricing structure offers excellent value without compromising on quality or results.
What Exactly Is a Botox Unit?
A Botox unit is a standardized measurement of the active ingredient in Botox—botulinum toxin type A. Think of it like measuring medicine in milligrams. Each unit contains a specific amount of the purified protein that temporarily relaxes the targeted muscles.
When your provider says you need “20 units for your forehead,” they’re prescribing a specific dose based on your unique facial anatomy, muscle strength, and treatment goals. The number of units needed varies from person to person and depends on several factors:
The strength of your facial muscles (stronger muscles typically require more units)
The area being treated (some areas naturally require more units than others)
Your desired results (subtle changes require fewer units than more dramatic results)
Your treatment history (first-time patients may need different amounts than those with established treatment plans)
Average Unit Requirements by Treatment Area
While every face is unique, there are general guidelines for how many units different facial areas typically require:
Forehead lines: 10-20 units
Glabellar lines (between eyebrows): 15-25 units
Crow’s feet (around eyes): 8-12 units per side
Bunny lines (nose): 4-8 units
Lip lines: 4-8 units
During your consultation at West Asheville Aesthetics & Wellness, our experienced providers will assess your specific needs and recommend the precise number of units for natural-looking results that align with your goals.
Why Our $10.50 Per Unit Pricing Offers Exceptional Value
At $10.50 per unit, our Botox pricing reflects our commitment to making quality aesthetic treatments accessible while ensuring we use only genuine, FDA-approved Botox from Allergan Aesthetics. Here’s why our pricing structure represents excellent value:
In the Asheville market, Botox pricing typically ranges from $10-15 per unit at reputable medical spas. Our pricing falls on the more affordable end of this spectrum without compromising on quality or experience.
With our unit-based pricing, you only pay for exactly what you need—no bundled packages that might include more product than necessary for your specific concerns.
Your treatment is performed by highly qualified nurses and nurse practitioners with specialized training in facial anatomy and injection techniques, ensuring optimal results with the appropriate amount of product.
We focus on natural-looking results that enhance your appearance without looking overdone, which often means using product judiciously rather than overtreatment.
Calculating Your Total Treatment Cost
To estimate your total treatment cost, simply multiply the number of units by our per-unit price. For example:
If you receive 20 units for your forehead: 20 × $10.50 = $210
If you treat your glabellar lines with 20 units and crow’s feet with 16 units: (20 + 16) × $10.50 = $378
During your consultation, we’ll provide a precise quote based on your specific treatment plan. We believe in transparent pricing with no hidden fees or surprises.

While price is certainly important, the true value of your Botox treatment lies in the expertise of your provider.
