Jeuveau

Both Jeuveau and Botox target the wrinkle lines on your face that make you look older, tired, or mad. They are both carefully developed and produced neurotoxins. Applied by our experienced medical professional who knows exactly how to adjust the correct dosage and inject it in individually designated spots, your “11” lines can be significantly reduced or even disappear. However, Jeuveau has entered the market at a slightly lower price point, making it accessible to a more significant section of the population.

The history of both procedures is different since Botox was initially used for medical purposes before being employed as a cosmetic treatment as well. Jeuveau was developed solely for aesthetic use. Since it is not a medical treatment and is specifically for cosmetic purposes, it is not constrained by government reimbursement and therefore, can remain at a lower price point.

There is an easy answer to this question: one treatment is not “better” than the other. Instead, one of these treatments may be better than the other for a particular patient. Each individual case is different. That is why it is essential to come into our Scottsdale Med Spa for a consultation with a professional at Adam & Eve Medical Aesthetics so we can best determine which procedure is appropriate to address your distinct concerns. One advantage that Jeuveau offers is the slightly lower price point. Some patients have been successfully using Botox for years and plan to continue their known method of treatment since it works for them. Other Botox fans may switch and quickly decide to become Jeuveau devotees. After all, both procedures are highly effective at helping you achieve your desired visual appearance. That is why it is worth having an open discussion about your vision and budget with a professional at Adam & Eve Medical Aesthetics so you can determine how Jeuveau fits into your life. Remember that as we age, having great skin is not something that should not be taken for granted. Instead, good skin and appearance is a goal that requires some help along the way. Your best possible skin can be achieved with a good daily skincare regimen, regular use of sunscreen, facial such as the HydraFacial or OxyGeno 3-in-1 Super Facial, and Jeuveau for wrinkle relaxation.

Both Jeuveau and Botox are derived from a refined form of Botulinum toxin A. These treatments have a similar duration of longevity, which often depends on the age of the patient and the severity of their lines or wrinkles. You should expect your Jeuveau to last for approximately three months and potentially up to six if you are on the younger side.

If you’ve ever wrinkled your eyebrows at the thought of a delayed flight or frowned at the prospect of another boring dinner, Jeuveau is for you. Jeuveau has been approved as an injectable treatment for the improvement of moderate to severe frown lines. Jeuveau in Scottsdale, AZ, is also beneficial for the sun damage that can exacerbate frown lines on the face. What are frown lines, and where are they? Every time you wince or wrinkle or frown, the delicate skin between your eyebrows contracts and, over time, forms fine lines. These fine lines are known as glabellar lines and, more commonly, as the worry wrinkles. Jeuveau can safely minimize lines for more youthful-looking skin for patients in North Phoenix or East Valley. Jeuveau uses botulinum toxin A to smooth dynamic lines and wrinkles on the face. Similar to Botox, Jeuveau uses a specific neurotoxin formula to block nerve receptors under the skin. When muscles are treated with Jeuveau, they no longer respond to signals from the brain that tell them to contract when something unfortunate happens, like when the garbage smells terrible or when the bakery closes before you can pick up the party cake.

Just like everything else, the effects of Jeuveau will ultimately depend on you. Patients of Jeuveau in Scottsdale, AZ, say the best time to refresh Jeuveau is every three months. Your personal preference for repeat treatments will determine your satisfaction. Many patients extend their filler treatment from three to six months thanks to the strategic placement and dosage provided by our expert team of specialists. Although Jeuveau doesn’t require any specific aftercare and patients can resume their normal activities, the duration between repeat treatments can be prolonged if aftercare is purposeful. Stay out of the direct sun that can be particularly harsh in the East Valley and Phoenix areas. Your skin is sensitive and will be susceptible to sunburn. Do not scrub your face in the treated areas for several days following treatment. Do not apply harsh chemicals or other treatments to the areas following Jeuveau. Consult your specialist if you have any questions or concerns before you make any further decisions regarding treatment.

Our trained specialists will determine placement and dosing based on the elasticity of your skin and the dynamic nature of the fine lines, and industry best practices and guidelines. However, for most patients above the age of 25, the recommended dosages are the same, and Jeuveau in Scottsdale, AZ, has the same dosing recommendations as to other parts of the country.

• 20 units of Jeuveau per treatment session
• Total units divided into five equal injections
• Each injection is four units each
• Inject into corrugator and procerus muscles
• Exact placement will depend on dynamic lines placement
• Repeat unit treatment every three months

For many people, the effects of Jeuveau are immediate and evident in less than a few days. One of the best benefits is that Jeuveau provides instant observable results without invasive surgery. Another benefit is that Jeuveau in Scottsdale, AZ, does not require any special aftercare, and, for the most part, patients can resume normal activities directly after treatment. For best results, repeat treatments are recommended every three to six months; after two years, patients will have the most noticeable results with more youthful skin.

Patients in East Valley and Phoenix can rest assured knowing that Jeuveau is different from Botox in both the formula and the application. Both Botox and Jeuveau are injectables that use the botulinum toxin, which temporarily paralyzes muscles to reduce dynamic movement and smooth fine lines and wrinkles. However, Botox is also used for additional medical treatments such as excessive sweating. The preparation of Jeuveau is unique and specifically for glabellar lines rather than Botox that has multiple functions. Jeuveau is also somewhat less costly than Botox, depending on the nature of your treatments. Despite the differences, speak with your specialist to determine why Jeuveau is the right match for you and your skin.

In early studies, it does appear that Jeuveau is longer lasting than Botox, though both injectables have similar top-up times initially. After a targeted first round of Jeuveau is completed, it is more likely that more time can lapse in-between visits for maintenance. During the initial consultation, specialists inform patients in the East Valley and Phoenix that neither of the treatments is forever. To continue to have the effects from any neurotoxin compound that blocks nerve signals keeping specific facial muscles from reacting, thus smoothing fine lines, repeat treatments will always be necessary.

Jeuveau is made by the company Evolus and produced in South Korea and distributed in the United States and other countries accordingly. Botox, on the other hand, is made in Ireland by a company called Allergan. Both companies and products instituted clinical trials in which the respective injectables were cleared for safety and efficacy for the treatment and repeat treatment of dynamic wrinkles. Jeuveau is the newer product on the market with FDA approval beginning in 2019.
