Jeuveau vs. Botox: What’s The Difference?

Jeuveau vs. Botox

Botox vs. Jeuveau has been an ongoing discussion in the cosmetic enhancement space. Both Botox and Jeuveau are fast working wrinkle-reducing options for eliminating unwanted flaws on the skin. They have been approved for a host of other uses by the FDA as well.

Board certified plastic surgeon Dr. Suzanne Quardt (Dr. Q) provides neuromodulator injections for facial wrinkle reduction, such as Botox and Jeuveau, to patients in Palm Springs, Palm Desert, Rancho Mirage, Beverly Hills, CA, and surrounding locations.

What is Jeuveau?

Jeuveau is the newest neuromodulator that is developed specifically for cosmetic use. It coined the #newtox phrase. Jeuveau was FDA approved in 2019 and is the most recent injectable to be approved in the last decade. Jeuveau is designed on the ‘Hi-Pure’ technology unlike other neuromodulator injectables. This is why the compound can work efficiently by interrupting the way nerve endings and targeted muscles communicate.

Patients can see Jeuveau results in just 2 to 3 days. It has positioned itself as an injectable for millennials that don’t want the early signs of aging to show. The formulation is commonly used for reducing frown lines, crow’s feet, forehead wrinkles, bunny lines, and other wrinkles.

What is Botox?

Botox is the original FDA approved injectable. The injections reduce the appearance of wrinkles. It is proven successful in dozens of studies. Botox, like Jeuveau, works by weakening or paralyzing affected muscles. The duration of effectiveness lasts for a period of 3 to 12 months. Effectiveness of the injectable depends on different factors, such as the frequency of treatment.

Similarities Between Botox and Jeuveau

There are several similarities between Botox and Jeuveau. Both are FDA approved and made from botulinum toxin type A. Botox and Jeuveau are useful in enhancing and correcting facial wrinkles and lines. These two are proven in terms of efficacy among other cosmetic injectables. People that routinely get injectables use Botox and Jeuveau interchangeably for maximum results.

Patient Experience

Differences between Botox and Jeuveau treatments are almost non-noticeable as per patients that have tried both. Both procedures can be performed in 15 to 30 minutes.

Safety

Both Jeuveau and Botox have manageable and common side effects. Harmful effects were ruled out by experts after conducting a series of clinical trials and research studies. However, you should still check whether Jeuveau and Botox are suitable for your body.

Differences between Botox and Jeuveau

It is difficult to find differences between Jeuveau and Botox since they contain the same active ingredient. However, these are a few differences that you should know:

Formulation

Jeuveau involves Hi-Pure technology even if it has the same ingredients as Botox. The technology removes dangerous proteins and helps with absorption making the product safer. However, safety boils down to the person administering the injectable.

Uses

Jeuveau and Botox are excellent for reducing fine lines and wrinkles. Jeuveau has only been approved for cosmetic reasons whereas Botox can be used for both medical and cosmetic purposes. You should speak with your general practitioner and dermatologist about the therapeutic benefits of Botox.
