Am I a Good Candidate for Jeuveau?
Good candidates for Jeuveau are at least 18 years old and are in good health. Englewood patients should not have any nerve or muscular conditions that could interfere with Jeuveau. You will want to postpone Jeuveau treatments if you are breastfeeding or pregnant. It is important to have realistic expectations as there are certain types of deep creases that cannot be treated by neuromodulators.
YOUR CONFIDENTIAL CONSULTATION WITH DR. DAVID ABRAMSON
When you sit down with Dr. Abramson, he will review your medical history and conduct an initial assessment. Make sure to mention any allergies or nerve and muscle conditions you might have to ensure they wouldn’t interfere with Jeuveau treatments. After you discuss your aesthetic goals, Dr. Abramson will go over your treatment plan with you. Dr. Abramson brings his years of medical training and surgical experience to the table to help you reach your goals.
Preparation for Jeuveau Injections
Preparing for Jeuveau is similar to preparing for Botox or Xeomin. One week before your appointment, refrain from taking aspirin and other over-the-counter medication such as Motrin or ibuprofen. Follow Dr. Abramson’s instructions regarding any prescription medication you are taking. Add fruits and vegetables high in vitamin K to your diet. As you may experience swelling and redness, plan your social calendar accordingly after treatments.
The Jeuveau Procedure
You might not be able to identify them all, but there are 43 muscles in your face. Targeting the ideal injection site for your specific case is a matter of knowledge and experience. Experienced surgeons like Dr. Abramson know how to select the proper injection locations, which are crucial for achieving safe and effective results.
When you sit down for your injections, your face will first be cleaned. After cleaning, Dr. Abramson will mark your face to properly guide the injections. He employs a very small needle to perform the pinpoint injections. Then, Dr. Abramson will inject the Jeuveau into the facial muscles that correspond to your treatment plan. The entire procedure only takes about 15-20 minutes to perform.
Recovery
Some patients may experience tenderness, swelling, bruising, and redness after injections for a few days. These conditions are normal. If you experience any discomfort, do not hesitate to call Dr. Abramson. Make sure you don’t rub or massage your face after injections. This may cause the injection to migrate to other areas of your face which could cause unwanted effects such as drooping features.
Results
Most patients can expect to see full results after within 7 days. The area injected will show noticeably fewer wrinkles and skin creases. Results from Jeuveau can be expected to last up to 4 months.
Myofascial pain syndrome is a disorder where sensitive muscles may cause pain in unrelated parts of the body. A pilot study that used Jeuveau to treat patients with myofascial pain syndrome showed that patients saw reduced pain and improved quality of life with no adverse effects. This initial study suggests that Jeuveau may be used in treatments in the future for a variety of neuromuscular facial conditions.
Complementary Procedures
Because neuromodulators can only treat lines and creases that result from muscle tension and contractions, there are some wrinkles that can’t be remedied by Jeuveau injections. Some of the deep wrinkles that form through the natural aging process require a different remedy. Dermal fillers are soft-tissue injectables that can smooth some of these wrinkles that Jeuveau cannot reach. Dermal fillers are often paired with neuromodulators as they treat different types of facial lines and complement each other nicely. Dermal fillers can also be used to restore lost facial volume, a key factor in a youthful appearance.
You may want to treat other instances of sagging or loose skin that can’t be treated by either Jeuveau or dermal fillers. In this case, Cryoskin 3.0 may be recommended by Dr. Abramson. A Cryoskin 3.0 aims to subtly recontour your face to bring back balance and tighten up that loose skin.
WHAT IS THE COST OF JEUVEAU?
The cost of Jeuveau depends on the specifics of your case, your desired results, and the treatment plan Dr. Abramson devises for you. In general, Jeuveau is slightly more affordable than Botox but that depends, in part, on current market conditions. Dr. Abramson will go over your treatment plan and provide you specific prices at the time of your initial consultation.
