JEUVEAU® IN SARASOTA
Smooth frown lines and refresh your expression
At Rita Medical Elite, we offer Jeuveau®, an FDA-approved neuromodulator designed to soften frown lines and other dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated facial movement. Sometimes called “Newtox,” Jeuveau® delivers natural-looking results with a modern formulation that sets in quickly and lasts for months.
What is Jeuveau?
Jeuveau® works by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles that create expression lines, particularly between the brows (the “11s”). Once injected, it blocks the nerve signals that cause these muscles to contract, allowing the overlying skin to smooth and soften.
​​
Results typically appear within 2–3 days, with full effect visible around one week after treatment. Depending on your unique response, results can last three to four months before a quick touch-up is needed. The treatment is fast, comfortable, and requires no downtime — just smoother, naturally refreshed skin.
How does Jeuveau work?
Jeuveau® uses a purified form of botulinum toxin type A to temporarily relax the small facial muscles responsible for expression lines. When injected into targeted areas — most commonly the frown lines between the brows, forehead lines, or crow’s feet — Jeuveau® blocks the release of acetylcholine, the neurotransmitter that signals muscles to contract.
​
By reducing this repetitive muscle activity, the overlying skin has a chance to smooth and recover from the constant folding that leads to wrinkles over time. The result is a softer, more rested look that still allows for natural movement and expression.
