Competition for Botox

Botox is one of the most recognized names in the world. They were the first neurotoxin available on the aesthetics market. They revolutionized wrinkle treatment and prevention. But there’s a new kid on the block and it’s called Jeuveau. It has quickly become a favorite in our office.

What is Jeuveau?

Jeuveau comes from the French word “nouveau” which means modern or up-to-date and here’s the scoop…

This latest wrinkle treatment is being marketed towards millennials and younger patients looking to thwart the onset of unwanted wrinkles.

Jeuveau is a new age neurotoxin (just like Botox) with a few distinct differences. Jeuveau is used for wrinkle treatment and prevention the same as Botox. Jeuveau aka Newtox has a faster onset of action usually starting to take effect within 24-48 hours.

Jeuveau has a “lighter” feel than other neurotoxins. That heavy forehead feeling is not present.

Jeuveau is more precise. That means the product will spread when injected but only to the size of a dime. Others spread to around the size of a quarter. This makes Jeuveau less likely to migrate when injected.

Jeuveau is only used for cosmetic purposes unlike its predecessor which also has medical implications.

It is an FDA approved treatment that is injected into facial muscles and used to improve the look or moderate to severe frown lines in adults.
