“How much does Botox cost in Lima?” is the first question we hear at Elyzea about botulinum toxin. The direct answer: at our Miraflores clinic, a full-face treatment costs S/800 (~US$229). The next sections cover exactly what that price includes, what variables move it, what to expect, and how it compares to the US.
Botulinum Toxin Pricing at Elyzea: 2026
At Elyzea the full-face botulinum toxin treatment is S/800 (~US$229). It covers the three classic dynamic zones: forehead, glabella (frown lines), and crow’s feet. Price includes the evaluation consultation, the product, application by Dr. Geldres, and a 2-week follow-up to fine-tune symmetry if needed.
| Market | Full face |
|---|---|
| Elyzea (Miraflores, Lima) | S/800 (~US$229) |
| Lima market average | S/600 – S/1,200 |
| United States | US$800 – US$1,500 |
Savings vs US prices land between 70–85% depending on the comparison clinic. For a broader local comparison of Botox as a category, see our Botox pricing guide.
What variables change the price?
While our full-face price is fixed, your total plan can vary by:
- Zones treated: S/800 covers the three classic facial zones. Additional bunny lines, chin, masseter (bruxism), or underarms (hyperhidrosis) are quoted separately
- Units required: A 30-year-old with mild musculature may need 30–40 units; a patient with strong musculature may need 50–60. Dosing is tuned to actual muscle strength, not a flat protocol
- Brand used: Botox (Allergan/AbbVie, official prescribing information), Dysport (Galderma), Xeomin (Merz), Jeuveau (Evolus) have slightly different profiles — all are FDA-approved botulinum toxin products. The brand is named at consultation — no surprises
- Who applies: At Elyzea the injections are performed by Dr. Geldres, board-certified plastic surgeon. This matters for anatomical precision and symmetry
- Combined treatments: If combined with hyaluronic acid fillers or other procedures in the same session, package discounts are evaluated case-by-case
What areas can be treated?
Botulinum toxin has both aesthetic and therapeutic applications:
- Forehead: Smooths horizontal lines from raising the eyebrows
- Glabella (frown lines): Erases vertical lines between the brows that create a tired or angry look
- Crow’s feet: Reduces lines around the eyes when smiling
- Bunny lines: Lines on the bridge of the nose
- Chemical brow lift: Subtle lifting effect without surgery
- Masseter: Slims the jaw contour and treats bruxism
- Mentalis and oral commissures: For pebbled chin and downturned mouth corners
- Hyperhidrosis: Excessive sweating in underarms, palms, or forehead
Sessions, duration, and maintenance
Botulinum toxin is a 30-minute outpatient procedure. No medical leave required.
- Onset: 3 to 5 days post-injection
- Peak effect: 2 weeks (follow-up consultation included)
- Duration: 4 to 6 months for most patients
- Maintenance: 2 to 3 sessions per year for consistent results
- Adaptive relaxation: Regular treatments often produce longer-lasting effect over time
Aftercare
Post-treatment protocol is simple but important:
- First 4 hours: Do not lie down, bend over, massage, or press the area
- First 24 hours: Avoid intense exercise, sauna, jacuzzi, alcohol, and makeup over the points
- Day 1+: Normal activity — work, social life, travel
- Week 2: Peak-effect evaluation and touch-up if needed (included in price)
Contraindications
Botulinum toxin is not recommended in:
- Pregnancy and breastfeeding — due to lack of safety data
- Neuromuscular diseases: myasthenia gravis, ALS, Eaton-Lambert syndrome
- Known allergy to botulinum toxin or albumin
- Active infection at the injection site
- Aminoglycoside therapy or other drugs that potentiate the toxin
The free consultation screens your medical history and current medications before approving any application. If you also want non-injectable alternatives, see our guides on Morpheus8 in Lima for moderate skin laxity, or cryolipolysis for localized fat — both are commonly combined with botulinum toxin in the same trip.
The “frozen look” and why the injector matters
The most common fear is losing facial expressiveness. The truth: results depend entirely on who applies. A calibrated application achieves:
- Refreshed, rested look — not frozen or artificial
- Natural expressions — you can smile, frown, and gesture normally
- Facial harmony — your symmetry and proportions are preserved
Dr. Geldres is a board-certified plastic surgeon with deep facial-anatomy expertise. Her approach prioritizes subtle dosing tuned to each patient’s muscle strength and proportions.
