Botox, Dysport & Letybo in Prosper, TX

The No-Fluff Guide to What They Really Do, How Much They Cost & Whether They’re Right for You

If you’re searching “Botox near me” in Prosper, chances are you’re not just price-shopping. You’re asking yourself:

• What exactly does Botox do?

• Is Botox good for my face or will I look fake?

• What are the downsides and long-term effects?

• How is Letybo different from Botox? What about Dysport?

• How many units do I actually need, and what will that cost?

The mind-map you uploaded of Botox questions (page 1) is almost exactly what most of our clients ask during consultation — from “What are the cons?” to “How long does Botox really last?” to “Is there a cheaper alternative?”

This page is built to answer those questions clearly, in everyday language, with Prosper-specific info and real numbers.

First Things First: Our New Client Pricing in Prosper, TX

🔹 New to our clinic? Your first visit: $7 per unit
This applies to Botox, Dysport (dose-adjusted), and Letybo for cosmetic areas of the face.

Example:

• 20 units for frown lines = $140 at the new-client rate

• 40 units for a full “upper face refresh” (forehead + 11s + crow’s feet) = $280

After your first visit, pricing per unit returns to our regular tiered structure, but we keep it transparent and review exact cost with you before treating.

​

Botox vs Dysport vs Letybo – What’s the Actual Difference?

All three are botulinum toxin type A neuromodulators. They all:

• Relax targeted muscles

• Soften wrinkles caused by expressions

• Prevent lines from getting deeper

• Last around 3–4 months on average

The differences are in how they’re formulated, diluted, dosed, and how they “feel” in the face.

1. Botox® (OnabotulinumtoxinA)

• Most well-known brand worldwide

• Very precise and “tight” in how it stays where it’s injected

• Great for small, detailed work (brow shaping, lip flips, subtle corrections)

• Onset: usually 3–7 days

• Duration: 3–4 months for most people

If you’re new, Botox is often the “baseline” we compare everything else to.

2. Dysport® (AbobotulinumtoxinA)

• Spreads a bit more under the skin, so it can be great for broad foreheads or strong muscles

• Often kicks in faster – sometimes within 2–3 days

• Many people feel Dysport gives a very soft, blended look

Unit Conversion: Botox vs Dysport

This is where everyone gets confused.

• 1 unit of Botox ≠ 1 unit of Dysport

• In most cosmetic use, we treat 1 Botox unit ≈ 2.5–3 Dysport units

Example:

• If a glabella (11s) dose is 20 units of Botox, you might see 50–60 units of Dysport for a comparable effect.

• That doesn’t mean Dysport is “stronger” or “weaker” — just measured differently on the label.

When you come in, we quote in a way that makes sense for your brain and your wallet, not in confusing conversion math.

3. Letybo™ (LetibotulinumtoxinA)

Letybo is a newer option in the U.S. but has been widely used abroad for years. Clients tend to describe it as:

• Very natural looking

• A bit “silkier” in how it relaxes lines

• A favorite for those who want movement but not creasing

Unit Conversion: Botox vs Letybo

• Letybo units are designed to be 1:1 with Botox units for glabellar lines.

• So if you usually do 20 units of Botox, you’d do 20 units of Letybo in that same area.

Onset and duration are similar to Botox: 3–7 days for onset, 3–4 months for most clients.

Pricing: Botox vs Dysport vs Letybo in Prosper

At our Prosper medspa, pricing is structured clearly:

New Client Special 

• $11 per unit for Botox, $4 for Dysport (dose-adjusted), and $7 for Letybo

• Applies to cosmetic facial areas during your first visit

After Your First Visit

• Pricing per unit is slightly higher and depends on the product and area treated

• We review your exact dosing plan and cost before we inject anything

• No surprise totals at checkout — ever

Remember: the biggest cost driver is not brand, it’s how many units you actually need. That depends on muscle strength, anatomy, goals, and whether you want “Baby Botox” or full correction.

​

What Exactly Does Botox Do?

Let’s strip the marketing away.

Botox (and Dysport and Letybo) blocks a signal between your nerves and muscles. Specifically, it temporarily prevents the release of acetylcholine, which tells muscles to contract.

Translation:

• When you frown, squint, or lift your brows, the muscle gets a “move!” signal.

• Botox basically puts that signal on mute where we inject it.

• The skin above that muscle stops creasing as much, and over weeks, etched lines soften.

Botox does not:

• Add volume (that’s filler)

• Lift the face like a surgical facelift

• Change your entire face shape overnight

It does:

• Soften expression lines

• Prevent deeper grooves from forming

• Help your skin age slower and smoother

​

​

Where Can Botox (and Dysport/Letybo) Be Injected?

Upper Face (Most Popular)

• Forehead lines – those horizontal lines from raising brows

• Frown lines (“11s”) – lines between the brows

• Crow’s feet – wrinkles radiating from the corners of the eyes

Mid & Lower Face

These are more advanced areas that require anatomical skill:

• Bunny lines – little scrunch lines at the sides of the nose

• Gummy smile – relaxing excessive upper lip lift

• Lip flip – a few units above the lip to roll it slightly outward

• Chin dimpling – “orange peel” chin

• Downturned corners of the mouth – softening a “sad mouth” pull

• Jawline & masseters – facial slimming and TMJ relief

• Neck bands (platysma) – “Nefertiti lift” to soften vertical neck cords

Medical / Functional Uses

While your visit with us is cosmetic, it helps to know Botox is also used for:

• Migraine relief

• Excessive sweating (underarms, hands)

• TMJ pain and clenching

We can discuss whether these functional treatments apply to you during consultation.

​

​

Is Botox Good for My Face?

Short answer: It depends on your goals, anatomy, and how aggressive you want to be.

Here’s how we think through it with you in Prosper:

Botox Is Usually a Good Fit If:

• You see lines that stay when your face is at rest

• You feel like you “always look tired, mad, or stressed”

• Your makeup settles into forehead or frown lines

• You want to prevent your lines from getting worse

• You’re okay with subtle, natural movement instead of full freeze

Botox Might Not Be the Right Tool If:

• Your main concern is sagging skin (jowls, heavy lower face) – you may need skin tightening or fillers instead

• You don’t want any change in movement at all

• You’re extremely needle-phobic and not open to injections

• You’re pregnant, trying to conceive, or breastfeeding (we hold off in those cases)

Most people in their late 20s through 60s can benefit from well-done neurotoxin. The real question isn’t “Is Botox good for faces?” but “What’s the right plan for your face?”.

​

​

What Is the Best Age to Start Botox?

There is no magic birthday. Think stage, not age.

• Early 20s – Usually no need unless you have very strong lines or a genetic tendency to heavy creasing.

• Mid to late 20s – early 30s – Great time for preventive or “baby Botox” if you’re already seeing faint lines at rest.

• 30s–40s – Sweet spot. You already see lines, but they’re still reversible with consistent treatment.

• 50s+ – Botox still helps, but some lines may be etched in and need combo treatment (skin resurfacing, filler, collagen stimulators).

If you’re in Prosper scrolling and thinking, “I can see my 11s even when I’m not frowning,” you’re not “too early” anymore — you’re right on time.

How Long Does Botox Really Last?

For most people:

• Onset: 3–7 days (Dysport may be closer to 2–3)

• Peak effect: 2 weeks

• Duration: about 3–4 months

Some areas (like masseters or underarms for sweating) can last 4–6 months.

Why it varies:

• Your metabolism

• How expressive you are

• How many units were used

• Whether we used “Baby Botox” vs full dose

If you only try it once, let it fully wear off, and then wait a year, you aren’t getting the full long-term preventive benefits. Consistency is where Botox shines.

What Are the Downsides of Botox?

Let’s be blunt. No treatment is all upside.

Common Mild Side Effects

• Tiny injection marks or redness (usually gone within hours)

• Occasional small bruise

• Temporary headache

• Feeling “tight” or “heavy” for a few days

Most of this is minor and short-lived.

Less Common But Important Risks

• Asymmetry – One brow or eyelid responds differently. We usually can adjust at the 2-week follow-up.

• Eyelid or brow droop (ptosis) – Uncommon, but possible if product migrates. It’s temporary but annoying. This is why technique and injector skill matter.

• Smile changes – If lower face dosing is off, smile can look odd for a few weeks. Again, this is technique-dependent.

Long-Term Concerns People Ask About

“Does Botox age you in the long run?”
“What will my face look like after 10 years of Botox?”

If you’re treated conservatively and correctly:

• Skin tends to look better, because you’ve prevented constant creasing

• Most people who start in their 30s look younger than their actual age at 40+

• You don’t “need more and more” just to look normal – we simply maintain or slightly adjust doses over time

Where people get into trouble is when:

• They bounce between random injectors

• They chase trends (“frozen,” “Fox eye,” etc.)

• They combine heavy toxin + overfilled cheeks/lips

Well-planned Botox doesn’t wreck your face. Bad taste and bad technique do.

Are There People Who Should Avoid Botox?

Yes. You should not get neurotoxin injections if you:

• Are pregnant, actively trying to conceive, or breastfeeding

• Have certain neuromuscular disorders (e.g., myasthenia gravis or similar – must be cleared by your physician)

• Have had an allergic reaction to any botulinum toxin product

• Have an active infection or rash in the area to be treated

During consultation in Prosper, we always review your medical history, medications, and supplements to make sure it’s safe.

Is Botox Worth It in Your 30s or 40s?

The short answer from most of our Prosper clients: Yes. Absolutely.

Here’s the logic:

• A single neurotoxin session costs less than many people spend on hair, nails, or “miracle” skincare each quarter.

• Unlike skincare, it directly stops the muscle motion that causes lines.

• Over several years, that means you avoid (or significantly delay) deep etched wrinkles that are far harder and more expensive to treat later.

If you’re in your 40s wondering, “Is it too late?” — no. You’ll see visible softening and likely wish you’d started 5–10 years earlier.

Is There a Cheaper Alternative to Botox?

People often ask this when “Botox” is being used as a generic word for “anti-wrinkle treatment.”

Cheaper does not mean better if:

• You’re getting fewer units than you need

• The injector has weak training or no medical oversight

• The product isn’t from a reputable pharmacy or U.S. distributor

Within safe, FDA-approved options, the “cheaper” angle is usually:

• Letybo – sometimes priced a bit more competitively

• Targeted dosing – treating only what really bothers you instead of everything at once

• Memberships or bundles – to reduce per-unit costs over the year

Our philosophy in Prosper: we’d rather use the right product and dose and find a way to fit it into your budget than sell you a bargain treatment that doesn’t do its job.

Why Are Some People Against Botox?

You’ll hear a few common objections:

1. Fear of looking fake

   • Totally valid. This is 95% technique and taste. Conservative dosing, especially your first time, prevents this.

2. Fear of “toxins”

   • Botox has been used medically for decades, including in pediatrics and neurology, at higher doses than we use in aesthetics. That said, if the concept bothers you, no one is forcing you to do it.

3. Fear of commitment

   • Results wear off in 3–4 months. You are not stuck with it forever.

4. Bad examples online

   • Overfilled celebrities with frozen foreheads and no facial movement. That’s not standard Botox. That’s aggressive, intentional over-treatment.

If you’re on the fence, we usually start with small doses in a single area so you can see how it feels before committing to a full plan.

Botox vs Letybo vs Dysport: Which Should You Choose?

Here’s how we help Prosper clients decide:

You May Do Best With Botox If:

• You’re new and want the “classic” option

• You like precise, controlled results

• You want detailed brow shaping or complex lower face work

You May Do Best With Dysport If:

• You have a large or very strong forehead/frown area

• You like fast onset

• You want a soft, diffused smoothing effect

You May Do Best With Letybo If:

• You want a very natural, relaxed look

• You prefer a 1:1 unit relationship with Botox

• You’ve tried Botox and felt “too stiff” and want something slightly more “silky”

In practice, most clients can do well on any of the three — but once we see how your muscles react, we often find a favorite for your individual face.

How Far Do 20 Units of Botox Go?

This is a question straight out of your uploaded brainstorming chart — “How far will 20 units of Botox go?”

paas_export_botox

Roughly speaking:

• Frown lines (11s) alone: 18–24 units for most people

• Forehead only (if lines are mild): 8–14 units

• Crow’s feet only: 8–12 units per side (16–24 total)

So 20 units will usually:

• Fully treat one main area or

• Lightly treat two areas (e.g., mild forehead + mild 11s)

If you’re 35+ with noticeable lines at rest, you’ll typically need more than 20 units for a full upper-face correction. But 20 units is a reasonable starting point.

Tipping, Cost & Real-World Money Questions

People quietly worry about this, so let’s just address it.

“How much do you tip on $500 of Botox?”

In a medspa medical setting:

• Tipping is optional, not required.

• Some clients tip like they would for hair/nails (10–20%) if they’re thrilled.

• Others don’t tip at all and that is completely acceptable.

Your results and your care do not depend on whether you tip.

What Does Botox Look Like After 10 Years of Use?

If:

• Doses are appropriate

• You stick to a reasonable schedule

• You don’t go overboard with fillers and trends

Then after a decade:

• Your skin will likely look smoother and less etched than if you had never treated

• Your lines will form more slowly as you age

• You will not suddenly “collapse” if you stop — your muscles just gradually return to baseline activity over a few months

Most long-term users in their 40s and 50s simply look unexpectedly good for their age, not bizarre.

What Happens When Botox Wears Off? Where Does It Go?

Two big questions from your mind-map: “Where does Botox go when it wears off?” and “What happens in the long run?”

paas_export_botox

• The active molecule is gradually broken down by your body and cleared, just like many medications.

• As the block at the nerve ending fades, your muscle begins receiving normal signals again.

• Movements return, and so do lines — but a little softer if you’ve had some time with reduced creasing.

It does not slide down your face, pool somewhere, or stay stuck in your system forever.

Is Botox Good for Eczema or Skin Problems?

Botox is not a primary treatment for eczema.
However:

• By softening movement, it can make makeup and skincare sit better on textured skin.

• In some cases, micro-dosed toxin (very diluted) can improve oiliness and pore appearance — but that’s an off-label, specialty technique.

If your main concern is eczema, we’d focus on topical and systemic treatment first, then address wrinkles and texture.

Is a “Botox Facial” Worth It?

A “Botox facial” often refers to:

• Toxin diluted and stamped into the very superficial skin

• Sometimes combined with microneedling or a gold-needle device

It can:

• Temporarily reduce oil and pore appearance

• Give a smoother makeup surface

But it does not replace traditional Botox for muscle-driven wrinkles.

For most Prosper clients, we start with standard injections for lines and consider micro-toxin facials as an add-on later if needed.

Who Should Do Your Botox in Prosper, TX?

The product is important, but the injector matters far more.

You want someone who:

• Understands facial anatomy and muscle interactions

• Has strong aesthetic judgment (knows when to say “that’s enough”)

• Listens to your concerns, not just sells a syringe

In our Prosper clinic, Botox, Dysport, and Letybo are injected by a Nurse Practitioner with advanced training in aesthetics, hormones, and wellness — so your treatment isn’t just about a line on your forehead; it’s about your whole vibe.
