Botox — Glabella (Frown Lines)

Botulinum toxin injection into the glabella (between-brow frown lines) using a per-unit pricing model — typically 20–25 units for this zone — for precise wrinkle relaxation without over-treatment.

Premier Clinic prices botulinum toxin by the unit rather than by the area, a model that rewards patients who need lower doses and eliminates the opaque flat-fee structure used by many clinics. For the glabella — the corrugator and procerus muscles responsible for vertical frown lines between the eyebrows — a typical dose of 20 to 25 units achieves full relaxation of the '11 lines' while preserving the ability to raise the brows naturally. At 160 CZK per unit for doses up to 20 units and 140 CZK for units 21 to 99, the cost for a standard glabella treatment runs approximately 3,200 to 3,500 CZK (around 130 to 140 EUR). This is a fraction of the cost for equivalent treatment in Germany or Austria, where per-unit pricing typically runs 6 to 10 EUR per unit — meaning the same dose costs 150 to 250 EUR at a comparable clinical standard. The per-unit model also allows patients to trial a lower dose first and adjust at a two-week review. The appointment begins with a physician assessment of the glabellar complex — muscle depth, contractile strength, and existing line depth — followed by injection point mapping. The actual injection takes less than five minutes. Results emerge over three to five days and reach full effect at two weeks. Duration averages three to four months for first-time patients, often extending to four to five months for patients on regular repeat treatments as muscles gradually attenuate. Premier Clinic uses both Botox (Allergan) and Bocouture (Merz), with Bocouture available at a slightly lower per-unit rate. The physician recommends the appropriate product for each patient based on muscle characteristics and prior treatment history.
