What Is Jeuveau?
Jeuveau injections by Dr. Shridharani at LUXURGERY in New York are a new neuromodulator aka neurotoxin aka “Botox” FDA approved injectable aesthetic treatment for the temporary improvement in the appearance of mild to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabella) in adult patients. Dr. Shridharani can also use Jeuveau “off label” like Botox to soften the lines and creases on the forehead, around the eyes (crow’s feet), around the mouth, on the chin, and around the neck.
Who Makes Jeuveau?
Jeuveau is made by publicly-traded, established pharmaceutical company, Evolus.
How Jeuveau Works
When Dr. Shridharani performs a Jeuveau injection at our NYC office, the medication works by blocking communication between a nerve and its target muscle. This is safe and is the same way Botox, Dysport and Xeomin work. Jeuveau is used for the treatment, control, prevention & temporary improvement in the appearance of moderate and severe fine lines on the face.
Jeuveau vs. Other Injectables
Botox
Since Botox is a brand name product that is well-established in the market place of cosmetic procedures, Jeauveau is NOT the same as Botox the same way Adidas is NOT the same as Nike although both produce a similar type of athletic wear.
Jeuveau is very similar to Botox (which is a proprietary type of neuromodulator). They both are derived from the same bacteria and work similarly to improve the appearance of lines and creases on the face.
Dysport
Jeuveau is very similar to Dysport (which is a proprietary type of neuromodulator). They both are derived from the same bacteria and work similarly to improve the appearance of lines and creases on the face.
Xeomin
Jeauveau is very similar to Xeomin (which is a proprietary type of neuromodulator). They both are derived from the same bacteria and work similarly to improve the appearance of lines and creases on the face.
Why Should I Choose Jeuveau Over Botox?
Jeuveau is a new option in the medical aesthetics market to temporarily improve the appearance of facial wrinkles. Botox is still a tried and true excellent treatment that works similarly to Jeuveau.
Choosing one brand of neuromodulator over another is often a personal decision based on the patient’s goals and administering clinician’s experience and preference. At LUXURGERY, Dr. Shridharani is comfortable with all FDA approved neuromodulators and will work closely with you to figure out what’s right for you.

What Areas Of The Face Can Be Treated With Jeuveau?

What Areas Of The Body Can Be Treated With Jeuveau?
Though it would be “off-label,” Jeuveau can be used to treat just about any place that Botox, Dysport or Xeomin is used since the Jeuveau is the same family or class of neuromodulator.

Why Does Jeuveau Last Longer In Some People?
The duration of effect is dependent on a few factors. Every person is different in their muscle mass and metabolism. Some patients have less longevity of neuromodulators because they have greater muscle mass and metabolize the drug faster. Also, the dose administered aka “how many units” plays the biggest role in longevity. More units/greater equals longer lasting results. Finally, the location of treatment makes a difference. An expert plastic surgeon or injector places Jeuveau in the target muscle.
