Cost Per Unit Botox Formula
The following equation is used to calculate the Cost Per Unit Botox.
CPUB = TC / BU
- Where CPUB is the cost per unit botox ($/unit)
- TC is the total cost ($)
- BU is the number of Botox units received
To calculate the cost per unit Botox, simply divide the total cost by the number of units received.
What is the Cost Per Unit Botox?
Definition:
Botox is typically priced and administered in “units.” However, these units are specific to each botulinum toxin product and are not interchangeable between brands (for example, Botox vs Dysport). In clinical practice, a commonly used rough conversion for many aesthetic indications is that Dysport is dosed at about 2.5–3 Dysport units per 1 Botox unit (the exact ratio varies by indication, anatomy, and clinician). Using that rule of thumb, 20 units of Dysport would correspond to roughly 7–8 units of Botox.
The cost per unit depends on who is injecting and where they are injecting. Many physicians charge around $10 per unit of Botox, but pricing varies widely by location, provider, and promotions.
On average, however, the cost per unit is often around $12 to $20 (and can be higher in some markets).
Getting the cost per unit Botox lower if you have a treatment plan is possible. This means that you will pay a certain amount of money for each treatment you undergo. The more treatments you have, the lower the cost will be.
There are other things that can affect the cost per unit Botox such as whether or not you need to pay extra for anesthetic. If this is something that is necessary then it will increase your costs. The type of products used may also affect how much it costs.
