Jeuveau in San Antonio, TX

Jeuveau is suitable for adults over 18 seeking to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles, particularly frown lines between the eyebrows. Good candidates are in good health and have realistic expectations about the results. However, it’s not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women, those with certain neuromuscular disorders, or those who have had allergic reactions to botulinum products.

Jeuveau usually begins to work within 2-10 days after treatment. However, complete results typically become visible after about two weeks. The exact timing can vary depending on muscle strength and metabolism.

The effects of Jeuveau typically last 3-4 months. However, this can vary from person to person. Some patients may find that their results last longer with repeated treatments. To maintain the effects, follow-up treatments are recommended every 3-4 months or as your provider advises.

There is minimal downtime associated with Jeuveau treatments. In most cases, patients can resume their normal routines after the procedure. There may be bruising, swelling, or redness at injection sites. These usually resolve within a few days. The most severe side effects are eyelid drooping or asymmetry, typically temporary.

Before Jeuveau’s treatment, avoid blood-thinning medications and supplements for about a week to reduce the risk of bruising. Do not touch or rub the treated areas for 24 hours if treated. Post-treatment, stay upright for 4 hours and refrain from strenuous exercise for 24 hours.

During a Jeuveau treatment, your provider may use numbing cream to numb the area if desired. The Jeuveau solution is injected into specific muscles using an excellent needle. The procedure typically takes 15-30 minutes. Patients often describe minimal discomfort as a pinching sensation. After the injections, you may experience slight redness or swelling, which usually subsides quickly.
