Jeuveau
The modern Botox alternative that smooths expression lines while keeping you looking like you—just refreshed.
At Plaza Aesthetics & Wellness in Kansas City, we’re proud to provide this advanced treatment as part of our commitment to helping patients look refreshed while staying true to their authentic expressions.
What Is Jeuveau
and How Does It Work?
Jeuveau (pronounced “ZHOO-voh”) is an FDA-approved injectable treatment specifically designed to smooth moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows. Often called “Newtox,” Jeuveau uses advanced Hi-Pure™ technology—a sophisticated purification process that removes unnecessary proteins, resulting in a cleaner, more refined product.
Jeuveau works by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause expression lines, allowing your skin to smooth naturally while the Hi-Pure™ formulation helps ensure consistent, predictable results.
What makes Jeuveau special:
- The first neurotoxin designed exclusively for aesthetic enhancement
- Precisely targets frown lines (glabellar lines) for natural-looking results
- Uses advanced purification technology for consistent outcomes
- Typically takes effect within 2-3 days with full results in 1-2 weeks
- Lasts 3-4 months, similar to other premium injectables
- Allows for natural facial expressions while smoothing wrinkles

Follow-Up and Results Monitoring
Are You a Good Candidate for Jeuveau?
Ideal candidates typically:
- Are between ages 21-65 (though individual assessment is most important)
- Have moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows
- Want natural-looking wrinkle reduction
- Are not pregnant or breastfeeding
- Don’t have certain neurological conditions
- Have realistic expectations about results
You might especially benefit from Jeuveau if you:
- Work in professional environments where appearance matters
- Feel self-conscious about looking tired or angry when you’re not
- Want preventative treatment to slow future wrinkle formation
- Prefer subtle enhancements over dramatic changes
- Have had success with other neuromodulators but want to try something new
Timeline and Results
- Days 1-2: Initial Changes Begin Some clients notice slight improvement within 24-48 hours, though full effects take longer to develop.
- Days 3-7: Visible Improvement You’ll start seeing noticeable smoothing of your frown lines. The muscle activity begins to decrease significantly.
- Week 2: Peak Results Your Jeuveau results are fully visible. Frown lines are dramatically softened, and you’ll love how refreshed you look.
- Months 1-3: Enjoying Your Results This is your time to enjoy smooth, worry-free skin. Most clients feel more confident in photos and social situations.
- Month 4: Maintenance Time Results gradually fade as muscle activity returns. This is typically when we recommend your next treatment to maintain smooth results.
Realistic Expectations: While Jeuveau is highly effective, it won’t address other signs of aging like volume loss or skin texture. Dr. Botros can recommend complementary treatments if needed.
