NewTox Injectables

Meet Jeuveau, aka #NEWTOX

… a fresh face on the scene and FDA-approved in 2019. Botox and Jeuveau have the same active ingredients, but their formulation differs. Jeuveau includes technology that helps remove dangerous proteins and aids with the absorption of the product, making the product potentially safer. A standout difference is their onset of action. Jeuveau takes the lead, showcasing results in a speedy 2-3 days, while Botox has a 7-10 day timeline for results. Duration-wise, Botox peaks at 3-4 months, whereas Jeuveau can shine for an extended 4-6 months. Jeuveau also boasts a more wallet-friendly price tag, making it an accessible option for those mindful of their budget.

How Does Jeuveau Work?

Jeuveau works by blocking nerve signals to the muscles at the injection site, causing a temporary reduction in muscle activity. This reduction in movement helps smooth the appearance of lines and wrinkles. We also offer treatment beyond the common areas, like the forehead and around the eyes. Here are some examples of other areas where it can be injected and its purposes:

Cosmetic Uses Beyond Traditional Areas

Brow Lift: Injected above the outer area of the brow to create a lifting effect, helping to elevate drooping eyebrows and open up the eyes.
Bunny Lines: The fine lines around the sides of the nose that appear when smiling or laughing can be smoothed out.
Lip Lines: The vertical wrinkles around the mouth are also known as “smoker’s lines”. Jeuveau can relax the muscles around the lips, reducing the appearance of these lines.
Gummy Smile: When injected into the upper lip, the smile is relaxed for less gum exposure.
Dimpled Chin: This can smooth out the appearance of a pebbled or dimpled chin by relaxing the muscles in the chin area.
Neck Bands, aka “The Nefertiti Neck Lift”: Vertical neck bands or platysmal bands can be relaxed, leading to a smoother neck appearance.
Masseter Muscle Reduction: When injected into the masseter muscle (the primary muscle used for chewing), symptoms of teeth grinding (bruxism) can be alleviated, and the jawline can be slimmed for aesthetic reasons.

How Much Do I Need?

Determining the ideal amount of either Jeuveau or Botox for you is a personalized process that hinges on factors like the treatment area, your desired outcome, and your unique facial anatomy. Jeuveau tends to be a “softer” application, leading to more “natural” results. We’ll carefully assess your needs during a consultation with our experienced specialists and discuss the optimal dosage required to achieve natural, rejuvenating results. Whether you’re targeting frown lines, crow’s feet, or other areas, we aim to strike the perfect balance, injecting just enough to smooth wrinkles and lines without compromising your expressive and natural appearance.

What Can I Expect During a Jeuveau Treatment?

A Jeuveau treatment involves a series of small injections into the targeted facial muscles. The procedure is quick, typically taking about 10-20 minutes. Most patients report minimal discomfort, which can be alleviated with a topical numbing cream, if necessary.

What is the Downtime After a Jeuveau Treatment?

As with any injectable treatment, there are potential side effects, though most are mild and temporary. Common side effects include swelling, redness, pain, or bruising at the injection site. More serious side effects are rare but can include issues with eyelid drooping or muscle weakness in the treated area.

Do You Offer Other Neurotoxins as Well?

While we do focus on offering Jeuveau treatments at B12 LOVE, we recognize the interest in Botox as it’s a well-known name in cosmetic treatments. However, our preference for Jeuveau over Botox is based on several key advantages we believe are beneficial for our clients. Jeuveau is specifically designed with fewer preservatives, which aligns with our commitment to providing treatments that are as clean and safe as possible. Additionally, we’ve observed that Jeuveau tends to act faster and offers results that can last longer, providing a more efficient and enduring solution for our clients looking to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Most importantly, the results with Jeuveau often appear more natural, aligning with our goal to enhance your beauty without compromising the natural expressiveness of your face. Our choice to specialize in Jeuveau treatments stems from our desire to offer the best possible outcomes for our clients, prioritizing health, efficacy, and natural-looking results.

That being said, we are here to accommodate your needs and preferences. If you have questions about Jeaveau, Botox, or any other treatments, we’re more than happy to discuss them during a consultation to ensure you make the most informed decision for your wellness and aesthetic goals.

How Much Does it Cost?

At B12 LOVE, we’re committed to providing our clients with top-notch Jeuveau treatments and transparent and competitive pricing. We understand that cost is an important consideration when choosing aesthetic treatments, and we aim to make Jeuveau accessible for those looking to enhance their appearance and confidence.

#NEWTOX FAQs

Proper preparation can help ensure the best possible results and minimize the risk of side effects from your treatment. Here are some guidelines to follow before your appointment:

Avoid Blood-Thinning Medications/Supplements: For about a week before your treatment, avoid taking aspirin, ibuprofen, and other blood-thinning medications, as well as supplements like fish oil, vitamin E, and ginkgo biloba, unless advised otherwise by your doctor. These can increase the risk of bruising.
Limit Alcohol Consumption: Try to avoid alcohol for at least 24 hours before your treatment, as alcohol can also thin the blood and increase the likelihood of bruising.
Stay Hydrated: While drinking plenty of water is always important, staying well-hydrated before your NewTox appointment can help maintain healthy skin and improve the treatment’s outcome.
Inform Your Practitioner of Your Medical History: Make sure to provide your practitioner with a comprehensive overview of your medical history, including any allergies, muscle or nerve conditions, medications you’re currently taking, and if you’ve had any other botulinum toxin treatments in the past four months.
Avoid Skincare Products with Irritating Ingredients: On the day of your treatment, avoid using skincare products that contain irritating or exfoliating ingredients, such as retinol or acids, to reduce the risk of skin sensitivity.
Arrive with a Clean Face: If possible, come to your appointment with a clean face, free of makeup, to reduce the risk of infection and to allow your practitioner to assess your treatment areas accurately.
Consult About Skin Treatments: If you’ve recently had any cosmetic treatments, such as chemical peels or laser therapy, consult your practitioner about the appropriate waiting period.

Proper post-treatment care is crucial for achieving the best results and minimizing the risk of complications after your injections. Here are some guidelines to follow after your appointment:

Avoid Touching or Massaging the Treated Areas: For at least 24 hours after your treatment, try not to touch, rub, or massage the injection sites to prevent spreading the ‘Tox to adjacent areas.
Stay Upright: It’s recommended to remain upright for four hours after treatment. Avoid bending over or lying down to help ensure the ‘Tox remains in the targeted area.
Limit Physical Activity: Refrain from strenuous physical activities or exercise for at least 24 hours after your treatment to reduce the risk of bruising and prevent the ‘Tox from migrating from the treated area.
Apply Cold Compresses if Needed: If you experience swelling or bruising, gently apply a cold pack to the affected area for 10-15 minutes every hour.
Avoid Heat Exposure: Stay away from hot environments like saunas, hot showers, or direct sunlight for at least 24 hours, as heat can increase the risk of swelling and bruising.
Skip Certain Skincare Products: Avoid using products containing alcohol, retinol, or exfoliating agents on the treated areas for a few days to prevent irritation.
Be Patient with Results: While some effects may be noticeable within a few days, full results typically take up to a week to develop.
Schedule a Follow-Up Appointment: If it’s your first time receiving ‘Tox or trying a new treatment area, consider scheduling a follow-up appointment. This allows your practitioner to assess the results and make any necessary adjustments.
Contact Your Practitioner if You Experience Any Concerns: If you notice any unusual side effects, such as difficulty breathing, swallowing, or facial asymmetry, contact your practitioner immediately.
