There are branches of Wuttisak Clinic all around Bkk. Have been to 3 and all were great. I am a regular at the one at Big C Chit Lom and I recommend it. (can't ya tell - this is my frown) Seemed as good or even better than 2 I've been to in Australia. Certainly much cheaper!! It is near the escalators which are just inside the entrance from Ratchaprarop Rd. Staff very friendly but not much English, the doctor speaks ok English and very nice person. 50ml about 10,000 baht (the doctor gets 500) but if you have connections or do some arm twisting you might get it down to 8,000. Just for reference, I dropped in to a competitors clinic and was quoted 16,000 for 100 ml. The local anaesthetic cream is worth having before needles. They have a website but mostly in Thai and then I got a virus warning when I tried to open up a link so will leave it alone.

So god knows what it says, but something about 15% (off ?? for??) Botox.

What is 100mL? How much of your face will it cover? Most clinics I see ask 5,000baht per area (forhead, eyes, or top of nose). Not much competition. Prices are the same everywhere.

Yep I don't like their 'simplified' method of charging per area, because the cost is in the botox and the doctors time. 50 ml will do frown, eyebrows lift, a bit of centre forehead and a little on the crows feet, but not enough for the frozen look. If need more than that you would probably be on the 100ml but I am just guessing. The doctors give you a consultation with medical history etc first, and are honest as to what you need. They are not on a commission. If you have the 100ml he can hold some back for touching up a week later. There is also a set of older botox posts under the medical etc forum if you like to read them. If never had botox before the first time you will notice an unusual stiffness in the area after a few days but that becomes unnoticeable after a week or 2.
