What is Jeuveau?
Jeuveau – the newest anti-wrinkle injection. #newtox.
Jeuveau contains the same botulinum toxin-A molecule (responsible for wrinkle relaxation) as Botox and other neurotoxins. It is the newest wrinkle-relaxing injection that promises to smooth away stubborn forehead wrinkles, frown lines, and even crow’s feet.
Jeuveau produces results similar to other neurotoxins such as Botox or Dysport. It uses similar dosing measurements and can have a longevity profile comparable to the other neurotoxins. Many patients choose this anti-wrinkle injection based on previous experience with Jeuveau treatment. Many also use this alternative agent due to a lack of response to the other neurotoxins.
Jeuveau has provided us with more tools and options for anti-wrinkle treatment. With so many noninvasive solutions to fighting the effects of age, you can now age as gracefully as ever!
How long do results last?
The longevity of Jeuveau is similar to the other neurotoxins. Most patients will have anywhere from 3-5 months of treatment results. In the study conducted by the manufacturers of Jeuveau, Evolus, patients received an average of 3 treatments a year to maintain their results.
What should I expect with the treatment?
To start, you and Dr. Brandish will develop an individualized treatment plan to determine if Jeuveau is the best tool for the desired result. Dr. Brandish is an expert injector with an artistic eye and years of experience using neurotoxins such as Jeuveau to contour the face and turn back the clock.
Before the treatment, Dr. Brandish may use topical numbing agents to minimize discomfort with the injection. Jeuveau is injected with a very small needle that is important to reduce any mild discomfort. The procedure usually only takes several minutes to administer with almost no downtime.
Are there side effects to be aware of with Jeuveau?
Jeuveau was proven to be safe and effective and was FDA approved for both of these reasons. In most cases, side effects range from none to mild. The most common side effects include swelling or bruising at the site of injection, which resolves quickly and completely in all cases.
Jeuveau Summary
Jeuveau is an injectable wrinkle relaxer derived from botulinum toxin, produced by Clostridium botulinum bacteria. It relaxes muscles around wrinkles by blocking signals to the muscles that cause contraction. These muscle-relaxing properties have a wide variety of implications for medical and cosmetic treatments. When used in a cosmetic treatment, it can be injected directly into the muscles responsible for wrinkles, and as the muscles relax, the wrinkles in the skin become smooth, producing a beautiful, youthful effect on the skin.
