Neurotoxins
Tired of those persistent frown lines and forehead creases? At Austin Skin & Wellness, we offer Jeuveau, a modern solution for the dynamic wrinkles that appear when you wink, frown or smile. Our expert providers deliver personalized treatments that refresh your appearance while maintaining your natural expressions. With Jeuveau, you’ll still look like yourself — just with a smoother, more youthful-looking appearance that reflects how vibrant you feel inside.
Jeuveau is an FDA-approved prescription injectable that temporarily improves the appearance of moderate to severe expression lines and wrinkles. Often called “Newtox,” this purified botulinum toxin type A works by relaxing the muscles that cause those persistent vertical lines between your brows (glabellar lines). Jeuveau was specifically developed for aesthetic use, making it a dedicated option for those seeking cosmetic improvements without a frozen look.
When injected into specific facial muscles, Jeuveau blocks the release of acetylcholine, a neurotransmitter that tells the muscles to contract. Targeted muscles relax, causing the overlying skin to smooth out. Expression lines are effectively diminished, and while muscle movement is limited, the formation of new or worsening wrinkles is temporarily paused.
Jeuveau works specifically on dynamic wrinkles — those created by repeated facial movements like frowning, squinting or smiling. The treatment creates noticeable improvements while preserving your natural expressions, giving you a refreshed appearance without looking frozen. Most patients enjoy their results for three to four months before a touch-up is needed.
At Austin Skin & Wellness, your experience begins with a one-on-one consultation, where our team will discuss your concerns and goals to develop a personalized treatment plan just for you. The injection process itself is fairly straightforward: first, your skin will be cleansed, and ice or a topical numbing cream may be applied for your comfort. Your provider will then inject small amounts (usually 10-20 units per area) of Jeuveau into certain facial muscles to smooth away lines and wrinkles. You may be asked to scowl, squint or smile to ensure a highly precise and targeted treatment.
The entire procedure is quick and typically takes about 15 minutes to complete, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules. You’ll be able to immediately go home or back to work and resume all normal activities with no recovery, downtime or overly complicated aftercare instructions. You’ll leave our office looking virtually the same as when you arrived, with results developing over the following days and weeks to reveal a more youthful appearance!
Like other neuromodulator treatments, there’s virtually no downtime with Jeuveau. You can return to your regular daily activities immediately after your appointment, though we do advise avoiding strenuous exercise, alcohol consumption and excessive heat or sun exposure for at least 24 hours. Some patients may experience mild redness, swelling or bruising at the injection sites, but these side effects are mild and typically resolve within a day or two.
For optimal results, avoid touching or rubbing the treated areas for at least four hours after your treatment. We also recommend staying upright for about four hours following your injections to prevent the product from migrating to unintended muscles. Most patients begin to notice a softening of expression lines within two to five days, with full results visible after two weeks.
Why settle for frown lines when a smoother, more refreshed appearance is just a quick 15-minute treatment away? At Austin Skin & Wellness, our expert providers combine technical precision with an artistic eye to deliver stunning results that enhance your natural beauty.
