Treatment areas
What Botox treats
Every treatment starts with a look at how your face actually moves. Dosing is planned area by area, so expression stays yours — softened, not stopped.
Forehead lines
The horizontal lines that set in from raising your brows. Softened while keeping enough movement that your face still reads as expressive.
Frown linesThe elevens
The two vertical lines between the brows. The most common first treatment, and the one that most often reads as looking tired or annoyed when you aren't.
Crow's feet
Fine lines fanning from the outer corners of the eyes. Treated conservatively so a real smile still creases the way it should.
MasseterJaw · TMJ
The jaw muscle. Slims a square or overdeveloped jawline over a few months, and eases the clenching and grinding behind TMJ tension and morning jaw ache.
Lip flip
A few units at the border of the upper lip, which rolls it slightly outward for a fuller edge. No filler, and no added volume.
Brow lift
A small amount placed to release the muscles pulling the brow down, lifting the tail of the brow and opening the eye.
Neck bands
The vertical cords that become visible along the neck over time. Relaxed for a smoother line from jaw to collarbone.

Questions
Botox in Manhattan, answered
The things people ask before a first appointment. If yours is not here, call and ask — you will speak to someone who can actually answer it.
(646) 347-2833How much does Botox cost in Manhattan?
Botox is priced per unit, not per area, so the total depends on how many units your plan needs. We quote at the consultation, once Dr. Alex has seen how your face moves and how strong the muscles are — a number given before that would be a guess. The consultation also covers whether Botox is the right treatment for what you want to change.
How many units of Botox is $500?
That depends on the per-unit price, and the arithmetic is simple once you have it: units multiplied by the rate per unit. What cannot be worked out in advance is how many units your areas actually need, which is why we quote in person rather than online.
How do I know how many units I need?
It varies by area and by person. A stronger muscle needs more product to soften, and someone treating one area needs far less than someone treating three. Dr. Alex plans the dose area by area after watching your face move, rather than applying a fixed number of units per area.
How long does Botox last?
Usually three to four months for expression lines. A first treatment can wear off a little sooner, and results often hold longer once you have been treating consistently. Masseter treatment generally lasts longer than the face — often four to six months.
How long does Botox take to work?
You will notice change in three to seven days, with the full result at about two weeks. Two weeks is the point to judge it by — it is still settling before then.
Can I go back to work after Botox?
Yes — there is no downtime. Most people come in on a break and go straight back. For the rest of the day, avoid lying down flat, rubbing the treated areas, and hard exercise. Small raised bumps at the injection points usually settle within the hour.
Is 40 too late to start Botox?
No. Botox softens lines that are already there and slows the ones still forming, and it works at any age. Starting later means existing lines tend to soften rather than disappear entirely — deeper set lines sometimes need more than Botox alone, which is worth raising at the consultation.
How is masseter Botox different?
Masseter treatment targets the jaw muscle rather than expression lines. People ask for it for two reasons: slimming a square or overdeveloped jawline, and easing the clenching and grinding behind TMJ tension and morning jaw ache. It uses more product than a facial area and takes longer to show — the slimming develops over a few months rather than a few days.
