Concerned about the impact that time and pulling various expressions can have on your face? At the Maas ClinicTM, we offer patients in San Francisco and beyond, a variety of effective options for natural-looking rejuvenation, using safe and effective products of the highest quality.
Also seen on social media as #Newtox, Jeuveau (prabotulinumtoxinA-xvfs) is the first neurotoxin product that is dedicated exclusively for aesthetic use.
Newly approved by the FDA in 2019 for the treatment of moderate to severe frown lines resulting from dynamic muscle action, Jeuveau is the newest kid on the block, when it comes to Botulinum Toxin treatments. This cosmetic injectable is the first new formulation released in over ten years, representing a fresh option for patients to experience.
Created as a more affordable option for patients seeking to smooth out dynamic lines on the forehead, around the eyes, and even areas such as the bands around the neck, Jeuveau is an extensively tested treatment that we are excited to offer our patients here at our convenient San Francisco location on Clay St.
For patients looking to reduce the severity of dynamic wrinkles, or even prevent their formation entirely, Jeuveau is a treatment that can help them achieve their cosmetic goals. Performed by Corey S. Maas MDTM, one of the most experienced Jeuveau injectors in the world, our patients will be able to see outstanding results from this brand new treatment.
Made of Botulinum Toxin type A, this cosmetic form of the toxin is considered a neuromuscular blocking agent. Intramuscular injections in therapeutic doses, causes the active ingredient in Jeuveau to inhibit the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, resulting in the partial chemical denervation of the targeted muscle. For dynamic lines caused by muscle activity, this decrease in movement smooths out the overlying skin, for a more rejuvenated appearance. As time goes on, reinnervation of the muscle occurs, reversing the effects of Jeuveau and necessitating follow up treatments to maintain its impact on your appearance.
Yes! Like the other Botulinum Toxin products, Jeuveau has been extensively tested worldwide. Corey S. Maas MDTM was one of the investigators in the clinical research trial for Jeuveau, which involved over 2100 patients globally, including two US Phase III trials, and European and Canadian Phase III trials versus the market leader Botox®.
Jeuveau provided comparable results, with no reported serious drug-related adverse events. At the Maas ClinicTM, we are confident in providing Jeuveau to all our patients.
How does Jeuveau™ compare to Botox, Dysport, and Xeomin?
Like the other Botoxins, Jeuveau is measured in units, and one unit of Jeuveau is comparable to a unit of Botox. In our experience, Jeuveau provides a very similar outcome compared to its competitors and works just as well. The subtle differences will come down to a matter of personal preference for most patients, and we are happy to recommend the best product for your individual needs during your in-person consultation with us.
What is the cost of Jeuveau™?
At this point, Jeuveau is going to be a little cheaper than Botox, and we think this downward price pressure is an excellent development for all our patients. However, it is important to note that the overall price of a Jeuveau treatment can also reflect physician experience. At the Maas ClinicTM, we seek to provide the best value for all our patients, which includes our expertise in all the procedures we offer.
How long does Jeuveau™ last?
Most patients will see good duration benefits with Jeuveau, with most patients experiencing at least 3 to 6 months of results before requiring a follow-up treatment. That being said, the number of units administered has a significant effect on the longevity of patient results. For more details, please get in touch with us to discover how we can potentially reduce your anti-wrinkle treatments to just once or twice a year.
At the Maas ClinicTM, we prioritize patient safety, comfort, and privacy, while also working to provide you with outstanding results. To schedule a consultation with us, please call (415) 567-7000 or fill out our online form here.
