Botox, Dysport & Jeuveau (Neuromodulators)

At the Mandell-Brown Plastic Surgery Center, we know how important it is for you to always look your best. Therefore, we offer Botox, Dysport and Jeuveau, injectable that minimize the appearance of lines and wrinkles on the face.

What Is Botox?

One of the most exciting advances in aesthetics has been the use of Botox® to eliminate facial wrinkles. Once used for spasm of the vocal cords and spasm of the lower eyelids, the FDA has now approved use of Botox for forehead creases and to eliminate the lower eyelid crow’s feet.

Botox by Allergan contains a substance known as botulinum toxin type A. Botox works by preventing release of messengers (acetylchoine) at the junction of the nerves and the muscles. Without the release of the messengers, the muscles are temporarily paralyzed. Botox takes one to three days to start working and can last one to six months.

Many claim that the more Botox injections, the longer it works. We have not found this to be true. The response time tends to vary based on the individual patient and the Botox treatment.

What Is Dysport?

Another great option for reducing facial wrinkles is Dysport®, a neuromodulator similar to Botox. Dysport was originally used in the treatment of muscle spasms and has since been FDA-approved for improving the appearance of frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines). It is now widely used to soften dynamic wrinkles caused by repeated facial expressions.

Dysport also contains botulinum toxin type A, which works by blocking the release of acetylcholine—the chemical messenger that signals muscles to contract. By temporarily relaxing the targeted muscles, Dysport smooths the overlying skin and softens unwanted lines. Results typically begin to appear within two to three days and may last up to four months.

Some patients find that Dysport spreads a bit more easily in the tissues than Botox, which can make it especially effective for treating larger areas like the forehead. However, response times and duration vary depending on the individual and the specific treatment area. Botox, Dysport, and Jeuveau are all excellent options, and the team at Mandell-Brown Plastic Surgery Center can help you decide which is right for you.

What Is Jeuveau?

Jeuveau is another neuromodulator option for reducing the appearance of frown lines and wrinkles caused by repeated facial expressions. Sometimes called the “newtox,” Jeuveau was FDA-approved in 2019 for the temporary improvement of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in adults, and it is also used off-label to soften other dynamic wrinkles.

Like Botox and Dysport, Jeuveau contains botulinum toxin type A and works by temporarily blocking the release of acetylcholine, the chemical messenger that tells facial muscles to contract. Patients often begin to notice results within a few days, with effects that typically last three to four months. As with any neuromodulator, response time and duration vary from patient to patient. Results may vary.

What Can I Expect During Your Treatment?

When you visit Dr. Mandell-Brown for your Botox treatment, which takes just a few minutes, your skin will first be cleansed with an antiseptic. After he has carefully chosen the injection site based on your needs, a small amount of the Botox, Dysport, or Jeuveau solution will be injected using a small needle. If additional treatment areas have been chosen, these will also receive an injection of Botox, Dysport, or Jeuveau.

Aftercare and Results

Following your Botox treatment at Mandell-Brown Plastic Surgery Center, you can resume much of your normal routine, but for a few exceptions. You will be asked to remain upright for several hours and to avoid alcohol, exercise and sun exposure. Your skin may be sensitive or you may experience some mild bruising following the treatment, but most side effects are minimal and short-lasting.

After several days, the Botox, Dysport, or Jeuveau will begin to take effect and many patients see reduced or softened lines and wrinkles at the treatment site. Results may vary. After a few months, you will likely want to schedule a touch-up treatment to maintain your results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Botox, Dysport, and Jeuveau are all botulinum toxin type A neuromodulators. They work the same way: by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause expression lines. What changes is the formulation, the dosing units, and how far each product spreads once injected. Dysport tends to diffuse more, which suits larger areas like the forehead. Jeuveau is FDA-approved specifically for frown lines between the brows. Dr. Mandell-Brown examines your anatomy at your consultation and tells you which one fits your goals.

No. A frozen look comes from overtreatment or imprecise injection placement. Dr. Mandell-Brown treats each muscle individually, using the amount needed to soften your lines while keeping the rest of your expression intact. Results vary from patient to patient.

Onset and duration depend on which product you use, and each follows its own timeline. Botox generally takes one to three days to kick in, with effects that can last up to six months. With Dysport, most patients notice a difference within two to three days, and results typically last up to four months. Jeuveau often shows initial results within about two days, with effects that typically last three to four months. Dr. Mandell-Brown will walk you through which timeline applies to your treatment.

Treatment feels like a quick pinch. Botox, Dysport, and Jeuveau are injected with a very fine needle, the appointment takes a few minutes, and there’s no downtime afterward.

If you have expression lines (crow’s feet, forehead lines, frown lines) from repeated facial movement and want a non-surgical way to soften them, you’re a good candidate. At your consultation, Dr. Mandell-Brown reviews your medical history, goals, and facial anatomy, then tells you whether Botox, Dysport, or Jeuveau is the better fit.
