Jeuveau®
Jeuveau® is the newest neuromodulator for adults to hit the market and is structurally similar to Botox®. It is an FDA-approved prescription medication (injectable) used to reduce the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines).
How Jeuveau® Treatment Works
Jeuveau® is injected into facial muscles and stops your nerves from telling your muscles to flex, temporarily smoothing moderate to severe lines between the brows.
