What Is Jeuveau?

Jeuveau® (prabotulinumtoxinA-xvfs) is an FDA-approved neuromodulator developed exclusively for aesthetic use. Like BOTOX and Dysport, it works by temporarily relaxing the small facial muscles that cause moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows, often called glabellar lines or the elevens. Evolus, the company behind Jeuveau, manufactures it using a proprietary process called Hi-Pure technology. Patients sometimes call it Newtox, a nod to its more recent arrival in the neuromodulator market.

Benefits of Jeuveau

  • May soften the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between the brows
  • Delivered through a quick, in-office injection with little to no downtime
  • Results that can begin appearing within a few days and may continue to develop over the following weeks
  • May create a natural, relaxed look rather than a frozen appearance
  • Can fit easily into an existing skincare or facial rejuvenation routine

Am I a Good Candidate for Jeuveau?

Jeuveau may be a good option for healthy adults bothered by persistent frown lines who want a softer, more rested look without surgery. Good candidates have realistic expectations and are not pregnant or breastfeeding. A history of sensitivity to botulinum toxin products or certain neuromuscular conditions may rule it out. The clinical team at Boston Center for Plastic Surgery can confirm candidacy during a consultation.

Why Choose Boston Center for Plastic Surgery for Jeuveau?

Boston Center for Plastic Surgery pairs Dr. Lonergan's background in head and neck surgery with a long-standing reputation as one of the region's most comprehensive aesthetic practices.

Patients benefit from a consultative approach that favors conservative, natural-looking results over dramatic change.

Your Consultation

A Jeuveau consultation at Boston Center for Plastic Surgery starts with a conversation about your goals for the brow and forehead area.

How Much Does It Cost?

The cost of Jeuveau depends on the number of units needed, which varies based on your facial muscles and the extent of the lines being treated. Because every patient's anatomy and goals differ, Boston Center for Plastic Surgery provides a personalized quote during your consultation rather than a flat rate. Financing options are also available for those incorporating Jeuveau into a broader treatment plan.

What to Expect During Jeuveau Treatment

Preparing for Your Appointment

Before treatment, the clinical team reviews your medical history and marks the injection sites, often checking your face at rest and while you frown to pinpoint the most active muscles.

The Injection Process

Jeuveau is injected directly into the targeted muscles using a fine needle, and most treatments take well under thirty minutes from start to finish. Many patients describe the sensation as a brief pinch rather than significant discomfort.

Right After Your Treatment

You can typically return to most daily activities immediately after your appointment, though the clinical team may recommend avoiding strenuous exercise or lying down for a few hours.

Jeuveau Recovery

Recovery after Jeuveau treatment is minimal for most patients. Mild redness, swelling, or small bruises at the injection sites are possible but typically fade within a day or two. Untreated areas of the face continue moving normally, since Jeuveau targets only the muscles responsible for frown lines.

Results generally begin to appear within a few days, with the full effect visible within one to two weeks. Patients are usually advised to avoid rubbing or massaging the treated area and to skip strenuous exercise on the day of treatment to help the product settle properly.

Jeuveau Results

Most patients notice a smoother, more relaxed appearance between the brows as the treated muscles ease their activity. Results from Jeuveau typically last about three to four months, similar to other neuromodulators, though duration varies by patient. Many patients choose to schedule follow-up treatments to maintain a consistent look over time.

Jeuveau FAQs

Can I wear makeup right after my Jeuveau treatment?

Most patients can apply makeup a few hours after treatment, once any initial redness has settled. Be gentle around the injection sites and avoid rubbing or applying heavy pressure to the area.

Is there an age requirement for Jeuveau?

Jeuveau's FDA approval covers adults younger than 65 with moderate to severe frown lines. The clinical team can discuss whether it's a good fit for you during a consultation, regardless of your age.

Can Jeuveau treat areas besides frown lines?

Jeuveau is FDA-approved specifically for frown lines between the brows, though some providers use it off-label on other areas of the face. The clinical team can talk through which approach fits your goals.

What should I avoid before my Jeuveau appointment?

Patients are often asked to avoid blood-thinning medications, alcohol, and certain supplements for a short period before treatment to help reduce the risk of bruising. The clinical team provides specific guidance based on your health history.

Can I switch to Jeuveau if I've used BOTOX or Dysport before?

Yes, many patients who have tried other neuromodulators transition to Jeuveau without issue. The clinical team can review your treatment history during your consultation to help guide the switch.

What are the risks or side effects of Jeuveau?

As with any neuromodulator, Jeuveau carries a small risk of bruising, swelling, redness, or headache at the injection site. Rare but more serious side effects, including unwanted drooping of nearby muscles, are possible, which is why treatment should always be performed by an experienced provider.

Can men get Jeuveau too?

Yes, Jeuveau is suitable for any adult who is a good candidate, regardless of gender. Many men choose it for the same reason women do, to soften frown lines without surgery.
