How Much Does Botox Cost in Renton, WA? Real Pricing ($12/Unit, 2026)
Here's the straight answer: at Flawless Aesthetics in Renton, Botox is $12 per unit. A typical first-time upper-face treatment lands between $240 and $480, depending on how many areas you're treating and your muscle strength. There are no membership fees, no hidden line items, and no pressure to come back every eight weeks.
The short version
How Botox pricing works
Botox is priced per unit, not per syringe or per area. A "unit" is a standardized dose of onabotulinumtoxinA — the same measurement every reputable injector uses. The price per unit varies by clinic, but the number of units for each area is fairly consistent across the industry.
This is important because you'll sometimes see ads for "$199 Botox special" that don't actually disclose how many units you're getting. A clinic charging $15 per unit for 15 units ($225) is giving you less product than a clinic charging $12 per unit for 25 units ($300) — even though the second visit costs more. Price per unit is the only fair comparison.
At Flawless Aesthetics, Helen Petrov, BSN, RN charges a flat $12 per unit. Whether you need 8 units or 50, the per-unit rate is the same, and you'll know the exact total before anything is injected.
How many units do you need?
Unit counts vary based on your muscle strength, the area being treated, and whether you're a first-time or returning patient. First-timers often need a few more units because their muscles haven't been calmed yet. Here are the typical ranges Helen uses:
| Treatment | Price | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Forehead lines | 10–20 units | $120–$240 |
| Frown lines (the '11s') | 20–30 units | $240–$360 |
| Crow's feet (per side) | 10–15 units | $120–$180 |
| Bunny lines | 4–8 units | $48–$96 |
| Lip flip | 4–6 units | $200 |
| Masseter (per side, jaw slimming) | 20–30 units | $240–$360 |
| Chin (mentalis) | 4–10 units | $48–$120 |
The total depends on the unit count in your treatment plan. For example, 20–40 units at the facial Botox rate would cost $240–$480. A lip flip is a separate service with a flat appointment fee of $200.
What's included in your appointment
Every Botox visit at Flawless Aesthetics includes:
- A brief consultation and treatment planning — Helen maps the areas and confirms unit counts before anything is injected.
- Medical screening for contraindications (current medications, pregnancy, recent antibiotics, allergies).
- The injection itself, with optional topical numbing cream for sensitive patients.
- Written aftercare instructions — what to do (and avoid) for the first 24 hours.
- A complimentary 2-week follow-up for new patients to make sure everything landed evenly.
No membership. No "VIP tier." No separate fee for the consultation. The only thing you pay for is the units you actually receive.

Compare the full appointment cost
Compare the quoted unit count and total for the same treatment plan. Check whether a consultation, follow-up, or membership adds to that total. At Flawless Aesthetics, facial Botox is $12 per unit and the lip flip is listed separately at $200 per appointment.
Red flags: when Botox is suspiciously cheap
If you see Botox advertised below $9 per unit, ask questions before you book. A few things that should make you pause:
- "$199 full face" specials without a unit count. This usually means very few units being spread thin — a weak result that needs re-treatment within six weeks.
- Diluted or counterfeit product. Real Botox Cosmetic (Allergan) arrives in vials with holograms and a batch number your injector can verify. Deep discount clinics sometimes reconstitute with extra saline to stretch the product.
- Non-medical settings. Botox should be administered by a qualified medical professional (MD, NP, PA, or RN under physician delegation) in a clinical setting — not a salon or spa back room.
- No medical screening.A reputable clinic will ask about pregnancy, medications, allergies, and neuromuscular conditions before injecting. If they skip this, that's a safety problem.
How often will I need to come back?
Botox typically lasts 3–5 months. First-time patients often see a shorter duration (2–3 months) because their muscles are stronger and haven't been calmed yet. Returning patients usually stretch further because the treated muscles gradually stay more relaxed with consistent treatment.
For a budgeting example, three visits of 40 units each would total $1,440 at the current facial Botox rate. A one-time treatment (for a wedding, a photoshoot, a specific event) is also completely reasonable — there's no requirement to commit to a schedule.

Common questions
How much does Botox cost in Renton, WA?
At Flawless Aesthetics in Renton, Botox is $12 per unit. Most first-time patients need 20-40 units for forehead and frown lines, for a typical visit cost of $240-$480. A lip flip has a separate flat fee of $200, while larger areas like masseter (jaw slimming) run $240-$360 per side.
How many units of Botox do I need for my forehead?
Most patients need 10-20 units for forehead lines alone, and an additional 20-30 units for the frown lines (the '11s') between the brows. At $12 per unit, that works out to $120-$240 for the forehead and $240-$360 for frown lines. Helen will map out your exact plan at your appointment before anything is injected.
How can I compare Botox prices?
Compare the unit count and total for the same treatment plan, including any consultation, follow-up, or membership charges. Facial Botox at Flawless Aesthetics is $12 per unit. The lip flip is a separate $200 appointment.
Is cheaper Botox less safe?
Not necessarily, but very cheap Botox (under $9 per unit) can be a warning sign. Red flags include: advertised specials without a disclosed unit count, non-medical settings, no medical screening, and diluted product. Reputable clinics use real Allergan Botox Cosmetic, screen for contraindications, and disclose exactly how many units you're getting. Price transparency is the fair way to compare — not the lowest advertised number.
Do I need a consultation before my first Botox appointment?
No consultation is required before booking standard Botox at Flawless Aesthetics. Helen reviews your goals, medical history, and unit plan at the beginning of your appointment so you don't need a separate visit. If you'd prefer to meet Helen and ask questions before committing, a free 30-minute consultation is available on the Square booking menu.
How much will I spend on Botox in a year?
For a budgeting example, three visits of 40 units each would total $1,440 at $12 per unit. Your treatment plan and appointment frequency determine the actual cost. There's no requirement to commit to a schedule — one-time treatments for weddings, events, or photoshoots are also completely reasonable.
