Jeuveau® (prabotulinumtoxinA-xvfs) is an FDA-approved prescription injectable used in adults to temporarily improve the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows, also known as glabellar lines or “11 lines.”

Jeuveau is a botulinum toxin type A treatment that targets the muscle activity responsible for these expression lines. At MAKI Med Spa & Wellness in Winter Springs, FL, Jeuveau treatments are personalized based on your facial anatomy, muscle movement and aesthetic goals.

Jeuveau works by temporarily reducing the nerve signals that tell targeted facial muscles to contract. When the muscles responsible for frown lines relax, the skin above them can appear smoother and the lines between the eyebrows become less noticeable.

The effects are temporary, allowing normal muscle activity to gradually return over time.

Some patients may begin to see improvement in their frown lines as early as 2 days after Jeuveau treatment.

Results continue to develop following treatment, and clinical studies evaluated significant improvement at approximately 30 days. Every patient responds differently, so the timing and degree of improvement can vary.

Jeuveau results can last up to approximately 4 months for many patients.

How long your results last can vary depending on your individual muscle activity, facial anatomy, treatment history and response to Jeuveau. On average, Jeuveau patients receive approximately three treatments per year.

Jeuveau® and Botox® Cosmetic are both botulinum toxin type A prescription injectables that are FDA-approved to temporarily improve moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows in adults.

However, they are different formulations and their dosing units are not interchangeable or directly comparable.

There is not one wrinkle relaxer that is automatically best for every patient. During your consultation at MAKI Med Spa, your provider can evaluate your facial anatomy, previous injectable experience and aesthetic goals to determine which treatment may be appropriate for you.

The FDA-approved Jeuveau treatment for moderate to severe glabellar frown lines uses a total dose of 20 Jeuveau units divided among five injection sites.

Jeuveau units are specific to Jeuveau and should not be compared or converted directly to units of Botox®, Dysport® or other botulinum toxin products.

Your treatment should always be performed by a qualified healthcare professional following an individual evaluation.

Jeuveau retreatment should be performed no more frequently than every 3 months.

Because results can last for several months, your MAKI provider can help determine an appropriate treatment schedule based on how your muscles respond and when movement and frown lines begin to return.

A personalized treatment plan can help maintain your results without treating more frequently than recommended.

Some people may experience temporary effects around the injection area, including tenderness, swelling, redness, bruising or discomfort.

Your MAKI provider will give you specific aftercare instructions based on your treatment. Follow those instructions carefully and contact your healthcare provider if you have questions or experience an unexpected reaction.

The most commonly reported side effects of Jeuveau include headache, eyelid drooping, upper respiratory tract infection and increased white blood cell count.

Jeuveau should not be used by anyone who has had an allergic reaction to Jeuveau, its ingredients or another botulinum toxin product, or who has a skin infection at the planned injection site.

Before receiving Jeuveau, tell your healthcare provider about your medical conditions, medications and supplements, previous botulinum toxin treatments, muscle or nerve conditions, previous facial surgery, and whether you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant or breastfeeding.

A consultation with your MAKI provider helps determine whether Jeuveau may be appropriate for you.
