How much does Botox cost, and is it worth it?
Thinking about Botox? Learn what it costs, what you’re paying for, and why the cheapest isn’t always safest. Expert, nurse-led advice from Michelle Buchanan Health:
If you’re considering Botox but feel overwhelmed by the range of prices and providers out there, you’re not alone. You might have seen deals for £100 per area or heard stories of people paying £300+ and still not loving the result.
What’s the average cost of Botox in Stirling?
In and around Stirling, you can expect to pay anywhere from £150 to £750 for Botox treatment, depending on:
Number of areas treated (e.g., forehead, crow’s feet, frown lines)
Who’s doing it – beautician or a qualified prescriber/ medical professional
Product used – not all toxins are created equal
Aftercare and follow-up included (or not)
At Michelle Buchanan Health, we charge from £175. But that price doesn’t just cover the toxin. It includes:
A full medical consultation
A regulated, nurse-prescribed treatment
Tailored dosing (not a one-size-fits-all approach)
Medical-grade toxin, stored and reconstituted safely.
A full follow-up and tweak if needed
Aftercare advice and access to us if anything feels off
💉 Is it worth paying more for Botox?
In short, yes, if you care about safety, results, and looking like you (just fresher). Here’s why:
Botox is a prescription medicine. It should only be administered by someone who is trained, experienced, and legally authorised to prescribe and handle complications if they arise.
Cheaper treatments might cut corners:
No proper consultation
No aftercare
Watered-down or incorrectly stored product
No prescriber on site if something goes wrong
I’ve seen clients come to me with uneven results, frozen faces, or treatments that just haven’t lasted—and often, a bargain seduced them. The truth? The cheapest option frequently costs more in the long run, financially and emotionally.
