Frown lines, or glabellar lines, form over time with repeated movement such as squinting or frowning and often become more prominent with age. Though part of a natural aging process, these lines can create the appearance of anger or frustration, even when one isn’t upset. Jeuveau helps relax the muscles, temporarily preventing them from creating deeper wrinkles or causing new ones to form.
Yes, before getting greenlit by the FDA, Jeuveau underwent a series of trials and clinical studies in the United States, Canada, and Europe. When put up against BOTOX® in side-by-side trials, Jeuveau performed similarly, and without additional adverse effects.
Jeuveau was developed as a purely cosmetic treatment and, as such, has not yet been approved for insurance coverage or reimbursement. Schedule a consultation at Sanova Dermatology to get an accurate pricing estimate and to discover whether Jeuveau is the right solution for you.
Your cosmetic dermatology provider will provide complete instructions on how to prepare for your appointment. Instructions typically include avoiding Aspirin and ibuprofen for a week prior to treatment to minimize the risk of bruising as well as avoiding alcohol and antioxidants.
In the event that bruising, swelling, or redness occurs, the best option is to use a cold compress or over-the-counter acetaminophen to help alleviate any discomfort. Avoid alcohol and strenuous activity for at least 24 hours. Physical exertion may diffuse the neurotoxin, causing it to spread to other areas.
After receiving Jeuveau, you can expect to see the results of your treatment in as little as 2-3 days, with the most dramatic results visible after 10-14 days.
