What is Jeuveau? smoothing facial lines and wrinkles
Jeuveau is an injectable prescription drug that has proved extremely effective in temporarily smoothing facial lines and wrinkles, particularly those frustrating severe frown lives between the eyebrows. Jeuveau is FDA-approved and is in the same classification of medications as other cosmetic injections like Botox®, Xeomin®, and Dysport®.
How does Jeuveau work?
Classified as a “neuromodulator,” and derived from Botulinum toxin type A, Jeuveau works by temporarily paralyzing or weakening the muscles that control selected facial movements. Lines and wrinkles result from years of repetitive muscle contractions. By allowing those muscles to rest and relax, Jeuveau diminishes or eliminates facial lines while preventing the formation of new ones, so it is effective as a wrinkle treatment.
