One of the most common questions I hear before a first appointment is: "How much is Botox going to cost me?" It's a fair question and one that deserves a straightforward, transparent answer. In this post, I'll break down exactly how neurotoxin pricing works, what you can expect to pay in Colorado Springs, and why the lowest price isn't always the best value. The Short Answer At PEAKTOX, neurotoxins are priced per unit: Dysport is $11/unit, Botox and Jeuveau are $12/unit, and Daxxify is $13/unit. Most patients spend around $350 per treatment session, though your total will vary depending on which areas are treated and how many units are appropriate for your anatomy and goals. If that feels like a range, it's because dosing is genuinely individualized. Your anatomy, muscle strength, and treatment area all determine how many units are appropriate, which is exactly why a one-on-one medical consultation matters before any treatment.
How Neurotoxin Pricing Works:
Per Unit vs. Per Area
Botox, Dysport, and Daxxify are prescription medications, and pricing reflects that. Most reputable medical providers price neurotoxins one of two ways: Per unit: You pay for exactly how much product is used. This is the most transparent model and the one we use at PEAKTOX. You only pay for what goes into your face — nothing more. Per area: A flat fee is charged for each treatment zone regardless of how much product is used. This can sound simple, but it creates a financial incentive to underdose — the less product used, the higher the margin. At PEAKTOX, per-unit pricing means your cost is directly tied to your actual treatment, not a bundled package designed to benefit the provider.
How Many Units Do Common Areas Require?
Dosing varies by individual, but these are realistic ranges for typical patients:
Treatment Area | Typical Unit Range |
Forehead lines | 4-20 |
Glabella (11's between brows) | 12-24 |
Crows Feet | 12-24 |
Brow Lift | 4-8 |
Lip Flip | 4-8 |
Bunny Lines (nose) | 4-8 |
Nefertiti Lift | 16-50 |
Masseter (Jaw Clenching) | 40-50 |
Hyperhidrosis (underarm sweating) | 50-100 |
For most patients treating two or three areas in a single session forehead, glabella, and crow's feet being the most common combination the total typically lands around $350
What Affects Your Total Cost?
Several factors influence what you'll actually spend at your appointment:
Your muscle strength.
Patients with stronger facial muscles , often men, or those who are very active typically require more units to achieve the same result.
Your treatment goals. A light, natural result requires fewer units than a more complete relaxation of the muscle. We discuss this during consultation so you know what to expect at different doses.
Unlicensed injectors: Many budget med spas operate under a physician "medical director" who is not physically present, and often not even in the same city. Under these arrangements, injections are performed by individuals without the independent licensure or clinical training to safely assess patients, recognize complications, or respond if something goes wrong. In Colorado, medical oversight requirements exist for patient safety, not as a formality

Why the Cheapest Botox in Colorado Springs May Not Be the Best Value
It's worth being direct here: not all neurotoxin providers are equal, and the cost of a bad outcome is always higher than the cost of doing it right the first time. When pricing is unusually low think $6–$8 per unit or deeply discounted "Botox parties" it is often a reflection of one or more of the following:
Dilution. Botox and Dysport are powders that must be reconstituted with saline. More saline = but less active product per unit.
Underdosing. Using fewer units than clinically appropriate produces results that fade faster and look incomplete.
Counterfeit products - Not all neurotoxins sold in the U.S. are FDA-approved. Counterfeit versions of Botox and Dysport have been documented and linked to serious adverse events, including cases requiring hospitalization. At PEAKTOX, all products are ordered directly from the manufacturer, never through gray-market or third-party suppliers.
Provider qualifications. In Colorado, neurotoxin injections must be performed by or under the supervision of a licensed medical professional. Some settings blur this line in ways that create real safety risks.
At PEAKTOX, all injectable medications are ordered directly from the manufacturer, reconstituted to clinical standards, and administered only by Rob Fore, MSN, FNP-C, CLS a Board Certified Nurse Practitioner with decades of clinical experience. Every patient receives a medical consultation before treatment.
