Botox in Highland Park Is $14 a Unit — Your Dose Sets the Rest

Botox is $14 per unit at DK Aesthetics in Highland Park. It is charged by the unit rather than by the visit, so your dose is your number — and the dose is what differs from one face to the next. At typical doses that works out to roughly $56–84 for a lip flip (4–6 units), $140–280 for forehead lines (10–20 units), $280–350 for frown lines, the "11s" (20–25 units), and $560–840 for masseter treatment for jaw slimming (40–60 units). Those are estimates from typical doses, not quotes: which areas you treat and how many units each one takes are mapped at your consultation, and you have your figure in hand before anything is injected.

Per unit — $14 a unit here. Charging by the unit shows you exactly how much product you receive, which is why medical injectors work this way: two people treating "the forehead" can need very different doses, and the unit count is what makes that visible. It also means a visit has no single price of its own — your visit is your units multiplied by the unit price, and your units are set with you before treatment.

It depends on the area and on how strong the muscle is. As a guide, frown lines (the "11s") often take about 20–25 units, forehead lines 10–20, crow's feet 10–24 across both sides, and a lip flip just 4–6. Larger muscles need more: masseter treatment for jaw slimming commonly uses 40–60 units in total. Your own plan is mapped at your consultation — and because each unit is $14, your units are your figure.

Results typically last 3–4 months, so most people plan around roughly 3 treatments a year, and at $14 a unit a year is simply your dose repeated at that rhythm rather than a subscription or a flat annual fee. A single area gives the clearest picture: frown lines, the "11s", run 20–25 units, which is about $280–350 a visit and $840–1,050 across a year. A fuller upper-face plan — forehead, frown lines and crow's feet together — runs 40–69 units, about $560–966 a visit and $1,680–2,898 over the same year. Both figures are worked from typical doses rather than quoted, and maintenance visits often treat fewer areas than a first visit, so the dose frequently settles below the opening plan. Individual results vary, and your units are confirmed at each consultation.

The units you receive at $14 each, and the judgment that decides them. A Botox result depends far more on precise dosing and placement than on the unit count alone — correctly dosed product settles naturally and holds through the maintenance window, so your visits stay well spaced and your expression stays your own. Your personalized figure is mapped at a consultation, and individual results vary.

They solve different problems and are charged on different scales, so the useful comparison is what each one does. Botox is $14 per unit and relaxes movement lines, which means your total follows your dose — a single area such as frown lines comes to about $280–350 at typical doses. Hyaluronic-acid dermal filler is charged per syringe — $700 at DK Aesthetics, and lip filler is $700 per syringe — and restores volume rather than softening movement. Many people plan for them separately, and your consultation clarifies which, or which combination, fits your goals.

No membership at the moment — one is on the way, and our clients will be the first to know. Where a series or combination of treatments makes sense, we build a finite package around your goals and timeline, with preferred package pricing reviewed at your consultation. New guests can also claim a DK First Visit Credit: $50 toward a first treatment, and injectables are included — no category is excluded. New clients only. One per person. Book within 30 days of claiming your credit. Applies to a first treatment visit of $290 or more in services. Cannot be combined with other offers. No cash value. Beyond that, our focus is precise dosing and a natural result that lasts, and what applies to your plan is confirmed at your consultation.

Every plan starts with a consultation in Highland Park. We watch how your face moves, map the muscles to treat, and recommend the units needed for a natural result. The arithmetic is open: your units multiplied by $14. You see your figure first, then you decide — the number you approve is the number you pay. Our prices are published treatment by treatment on the DK Aesthetics pricing page, and the one treatment we plan rather than publish is the Sculptra Butt Lift, where the number of vials follows your frame. You can also start with a free virtual consult.
